Come see iFanboy's Pick of the Week Podcast #200 LIVE!

Going to be in New York City for Labor Day Weekend? Want to come watch a taping of the 200th episode of iFanboy's Pick of the Week Podcast? Want to get a few beers with the guys afterwards?
If the answer to at least two of these questions is "yes" then you're in luck!
iFanboy is going to be recording the Pick of the Week Podcast #200 live from Jim Hanley's Universe on Friday, September 4th. The show starts at 7 PM, so make sure to show up a bit early to snag a seat!
There are going to be good times and laughs and tons of giveaways to the folks good enough to show up to the taping. And after the show ends, everyone will head on out to one of the local public houses for a bit of liquid merriment. UPDATE - We will be hitting Legends for drinks. It's right next door to Jim Hanley's!
If you can't make it to the show, not to worry! Just with the 100th episode of the Pick of the Week Podcast, this one is going to be shot on video and released in the video podcast.
So who's going? Let us know if you can make it - we hope to see as many of you that can make it out!

Posted by ohcaroline on 08/23/09 at 08:18 PMI answered yes to at least two of the questions, however the one 'no' was for 'are you going to be in New York?'
Bummer. Have fun and of course, congratulations!

Posted by PaulMontgomery on 08/23/09 at 09:32 PMI hope all who go have a great time. I just wish it was the back of my head in that photo. Maybe next time.
Posted by JeffR on 08/23/09 at 09:38 PMIf only I had money for a plane ticket!
Posted by Jurassicalien on 08/23/09 at 09:49 PMHow crazy is it that I'm considering taking the train down from Poughkeepsie just for this?
Posted by FraggleUprising on 08/23/09 at 10:17 PMSweet Christmas, how time flies! 200 already?
Posted by Quentin on 08/23/09 at 10:30 PMI was at 100 but dammit I'll be out of town for the holiday wknd. this time. I hope I don't have to wait until 300 for another one.
Posted by NJBaritone on 08/23/09 at 10:43 PMPfff...who would want to go to that? Not me, thats for sure.
(note to self, carcasm is hard to express in text form....thanks self).
Posted by TheMaestroX on 08/24/09 at 12:15 AMIf only I could go when this happens......Then I would fill out my murderous revenge.
Whoops sorry that last part was a typo.
(Note to self: The site knows too much)
Posted by TheNextChampion on 08/24/09 at 12:31 AMNo class on fridays. I am down! It's only a 40 minute train ride away.
Posted by SirCox on 08/24/09 at 01:00 AMlooks like i've already committed to a Labour Day trip to Canada's Wonderland in Toronto. Sorry guys, i would have loved to go. Congrats on making it to 200 episodes! You guys are the best comic-related site/podcast on the net!
Posted by mikegraham6 on 08/24/09 at 09:05 AMI'll be there. Can't wait to see the show live.

Posted by bigyanks on 08/24/09 at 09:56 AM@bigyanks The last time I did a rain dance for the iFanboys *COMMENT CENSORED*
Posted by WonderAli on 08/24/09 at 10:19 AMIf I had known about this a month ago or if it was Saturday I could have gone :(. O well good luck with the 200th show!
Posted by jstump on 08/24/09 at 10:21 AMI was there for 100, it only makes sense to be there.
Posted by hbkhumanity on 08/24/09 at 12:51 PMIf I had a million $$$, lived on the east coast (I'm on the west coast) and didn't work.... I'd still have to check with my wife to see if it was ok :)
Posted by rjspring on 08/24/09 at 12:51 PMAlso, congrats on 200!!! I've gone back and caught up on 70+ episodes and am finally up to current casts.
Posted by rjspring on 08/24/09 at 12:52 PMI hate that I'll miss the show (work), but maybe I can make for the liquid merriment afterwards. How big is the turnout usually for one of these tapings?
Posted by 70namrepuS on 08/24/09 at 03:13 PMHell yeah, count me in! Also gonna bring my girlfriend, who introduced me to this show, even though she doesn't post as much.
Posted by comicBOOKchris on 08/24/09 at 04:59 PMYou got the Noob!
See u all there!
Posted by Unoob on 08/24/09 at 07:38 PMHope you have fun at the live event. by any chance are you guys going to stream it live through ustream or other similar service.?
Posted by victorbarriga on 08/25/09 at 02:31 AM@victorbarriga: It won't be streamed live, but it will be recorded and released as a video podcast the next week.
Posted by conor on 08/25/09 at 02:33 AMhell yeah. i'll be there.
Posted by excalipoor on 08/25/09 at 10:26 AMI had suspected that this was coming. Of course that is the one time in the next few months that I can't make it. Hopefully my buddy Jon living in NYC will be able to represent the both of us.
Posted by darminion on 08/25/09 at 02:56 PMI'll definitely be there!
Posted by jabroniunc on 08/25/09 at 08:19 PMWell, won't be my first train ride into NY. Thank you NJ Transit!
Posted by ato220 on 08/26/09 at 07:46 AMCan't wait to meet everybody. I'm honestly really excited.
Posted by ato220 on 08/26/09 at 07:51 AMYou guys should definitely come to the UK sometime.
Posted by Xomneon on 08/26/09 at 12:01 PMCongrats on the big 200 btw!
Posted by Xomneon on 08/26/09 at 12:06 PMI think I'll push back leaving for the Gunks to attend. Might have to go light on the drinking to prevent hung-over climbing on Saturday.
Posted by aliciacrall on 08/26/09 at 02:18 PMI only live down on 15th, so I have no excuse not to walk up to 33rd.
Posted by WilliamKScurryJr on 08/26/09 at 02:53 PMhope i can sit down.
Posted by excalipoor on 08/27/09 at 12:28 PMBummed I can't make it. Have fun and congrats!
Posted by Megnolia on 08/27/09 at 12:37 PMNew York City? (Get a rope!)
Seriously though, if this was in San Francisco then I would go but it's not so I won't. :)
Posted by kenkneisel on 08/28/09 at 08:48 AMWe've updated the original post with the information on the bar we're hitting after the show!
Posted by conor on 08/28/09 at 05:00 PM=/ no $$$ for planeticket. But have fun tho. (mumbles angrily)
Posted by Mangaman on 08/29/09 at 02:28 AMcongratulations on 200 guys
but I'm in LA and won't e able to make it
Posted by Cotton on 08/30/09 at 03:03 PM@Conor, will there be a video episode this week? or will we have to wait till next week for the video of audio episode #200?
Posted by ShaunR on 08/31/09 at 08:37 PMHmm, never been to Legends. Looks pretty huge though, quite the opposite of the dives I sometimes find myself at!
Posted by comicBOOKchris on 08/31/09 at 10:10 PMWith the announcement of Marvel being bought by Disney I fully expect to see Ron wearing Mickey ears with a X men symbol on it. Ron, you gotta own it!!!
Posted by mongo on 08/31/09 at 11:17 PMMarvel's new kid line of comics where Mickey is Wolverine!!
Posted by ShaunR on 08/31/09 at 11:24 PMI'm sad X-Men Forever isn't coming out this week. Seeing Ron do his recap of that book live would have been awesome!
Posted by WonderAli on 09/01/09 at 06:18 PMI'm buying the first round of shots!
Posted by JoeNY on 09/01/09 at 10:22 PMGiving that this week is a slow week in comics, I envision Ron talking about Savage Dragon #152.
Posted by ShaunR on 09/01/09 at 10:45 PMim going if i can find a ride after the event
Posted by cyberauron on 09/02/09 at 12:00 PMPacking my bags and getting ready for the hike up to NY. YAY 200!!!!
Posted by PaulMontgomery on 09/03/09 at 06:36 PM@Paul I might see you on the highway on my way to work tomorrow
Posted by TheNextChampion on 09/03/09 at 07:08 PMi actually have the day off and i'm STILL coming through!
Posted by VitoDelsante on 09/03/09 at 09:30 PM@Paul, are you going to video log your tip like SDCC?
Posted by VitoDelsante on 09/03/09 at 09:31 PM@Vito - I think so.
Posted by PaulMontgomery on 09/03/09 at 09:47 PM@Paul, sweeeeeeet!
Posted by VitoDelsante on 09/04/09 at 09:10 AMI am all over this like a dirty hawaiian shirt!
Posted by JohnnyJohnny on 09/04/09 at 03:10 PMAppropriate.
Posted by josh on 09/04/09 at 03:50 PMThe slideshow tour on the Legends website is delightful.
Posted by hbkhumanity on 09/04/09 at 04:36 PMThanks everybody for making this a night to remember. It was great meeting all of you and I can't wait for #300!
Posted by ato220 on 09/05/09 at 12:07 AMThank you everyone who came and to the iFanboys for a wonderful time
Posted by PraxJarvin on 09/05/09 at 12:29 AM=| you know what? The ifanbase should demand to know Ron's secret for travel, then the rest of us could have partaken in that experience. =p
Posted by Mangaman on 09/05/09 at 02:00 AMJust getting home at 2AM. Thanks for coming out, everybody! Got to see a lot of my favorite people. I genuinely wish we had more excuses to come together like this.
Posted by PaulMontgomery on 09/05/09 at 02:15 AMSleeeepy.
Posted by josh on 09/05/09 at 02:46 AMIt's 3am and I just got home. The iFanboys know how to party!
Posted by WonderAli on 09/05/09 at 03:19 AMDrunk
Posted by conor on 09/05/09 at 05:09 AM@PaulMontgomery: No more conventions or anniversaries until Next year right?
Posted by Mangaman on 09/05/09 at 08:12 AM@Mangaman - The staff likes to get together for paintball and water polo over the Christmas holidays on Conor's secret resort island, but other than that...
Posted by PaulMontgomery on 09/05/09 at 10:27 AMyes! i am finally home! it was fun to meet everyone and celebrate the 200th episode. wish i can drink as much as the other guys did last night, but i work at the graveyard shift. I wonder how many people spill their beer last night. hope we can do this again at the next con after party.
Posted by excalipoor on 09/05/09 at 11:12 AM



Yay!! I'll definitely be there :)
