iFanboy Video Taking A Week Off
66 Posted on Jul 29, 2009 in articles by Ron Richards |
We just wanted to let everyone know that there will be no iFanboy video show this week. We're busy working hard on our San Diego episode(s) which will be out starting next week, and we needed all the time we could spare. So we're taking this week off. I'm sure some of you will find this unacceptable, but after 131 weeks of episodes, I think we've earned an extra week to bring you the best San Diego coverage around, don't you?
Tune in next week for the power and the glory of the San Diego Comic-Con!

Posted by Spooky on 07/29/09 at 02:37 AMThis is totally not unacceptable!!!
Posted by cromulent on 07/29/09 at 02:51 AMI had a feeling this week wouldnt show. it wouldve been an INCREDIBLE feat to get this weeks episode up especially from Con hangover. but now im TOTALLY exited for the San Diego Videos!
Posted by smeeeeee on 07/29/09 at 03:01 AMTake all the time you need. you guys busted your asses, this weekend. Thanks for a great party and thank you for telling me about all the great creators i got to meet this year b/c of you guys.
Posted by English on 07/29/09 at 03:04 AMTotally I mean i didnget a double dose of ron on another podcast this week so I have had my ifanboy fix
Posted by voodoomama on 07/29/09 at 03:10 AMit's a good thing there are good comics coming out tomorrow....well.... today or else i'd be super bored.
Posted by SteenAR on 07/29/09 at 03:20 AMYou guys should just stitch together Paul's videos and put them in the feed tonight.
Posted by miyamotofreak on 07/29/09 at 03:37 AMUNACCEPTABLE
Posted by tomhayday on 07/29/09 at 07:20 AMAs Lando Calrissian used to say (in Robot Chicken at least): "This deal is very fair, and I'm happy to be a part of it."
Posted by msarsur on 07/29/09 at 07:25 AMIt's ok, my Ron shrine will keep me company.
Posted by standardman on 07/29/09 at 08:01 AMI understand not having a show this week, but I also agree with @miyamotofreak. Slap the iFanboy intro on Paul's video and put that on iTunes (if Paul is cool with that).
Posted by stuclach on 07/29/09 at 08:18 AMI still haven't had time to watch last weeks show, so it's OK by me! take all the time you guys need!
Posted by JohnVFerrigno on 07/29/09 at 08:20 AMI'm sorry. I have no idea what happened there.

Posted by JamesSeals on 07/29/09 at 08:22 AMAnyway, glad to see someone cleaned up that mess. Take all the time you guys need. After rewatching last year's SDCC coverage, it'll be worth the wait.

Posted by JamesSeals on 07/29/09 at 08:26 AMRest your voices, guys. Any more strain and you'd have use a voice simulator, Steven Hawking-style.
Posted by russellbuzz on 07/29/09 at 08:54 AMunacceptable ! :)
Posted by philipgraves068 on 07/29/09 at 08:58 AMdo we get the podcast on sunday?
no?
Posted by philipgraves068 on 07/29/09 at 09:08 AM@philipgraves068 yes, the audio podcast will be out on Sunday as usual
Posted by ron on 07/29/09 at 09:18 AM@ron - Have your voices recovered?
Posted by stuclach on 07/29/09 at 09:38 AMThanks for all the hard work during the con and all the upcoming content.
Take a nap! You totally deserve it!
WHAT?! You guys are slacking! It's like your whole lives are nothing but vacations anyway--and now THIS!!
(Kidding.)
Posted by flapjaxx on 07/29/09 at 09:44 AMWhat's a vacation?
Posted by josh on 07/29/09 at 09:54 AM@Josh - A vacation is that thing your wife said she needed when she saw your new mustache. Queue rimshot?
Posted by stuclach on 07/29/09 at 10:12 AMEvidently it's traveling to a wonderful vacation destination then seeing none of it as you run around and through mobs of people on a convention floor with camera and sound equipment to interview a huge number of creative types then recording audio about it so a show can post on schedule.
Posted by Tad on 07/29/09 at 10:14 AMStrange we never see that sort of thing featured on the Travel Channel.
Posted by Tad on 07/29/09 at 10:15 AMIt would have been great to get an episode of Paul answering emails. Or just create a 25 minute long video of him screaming "RICHARDS!!!" over and over again.
Posted by drakedangerz on 07/29/09 at 10:28 AMWell as long as i get that audio odcast you guys can take ONE week off. lol
Posted by Stepho on 07/29/09 at 10:28 AMOnly three pulls this week AND no video podcast?! This is such a shit week! I sure hope I can scrape up some trades to read to last me all week but the shops around here have such shit selection and I have already read anything decent that they had! FUCK
Posted by robbydzwonar on 07/29/09 at 10:54 AMCONNN!!! *clenches fist*
Posted by thebigbad on 07/29/09 at 11:09 AMThis is what, the 2nd week off ever? I think that's perfectly acceptable. You know...for a free show and all. Most free shows you get 20 some episodes of a year. 51 of this show? Yeah. Perfectly OK.
Posted by androidmoser on 07/29/09 at 01:07 PMTotally unacceptable!
Posted by WonderManFan on 07/29/09 at 01:10 PMApparently even comic book podcasts miss deadlines.
Posted by s1lentslayer on 07/29/09 at 01:12 PMShit happens. Sounded like you guys got put through the ringer in SD so I'm not surprised. Get some rest if you can.
Posted by Anson17 on 07/29/09 at 01:17 PMWHAT!!! I can't believe this shit! I mean, this is unacceptable! I can't discribe how infuriated I am rifgr now! My Amazon order is late again! What, you guys arnt having a video show this week? No prob, you guys relax. You had a big week.
Posted by 1SinMuse on 07/29/09 at 01:52 PMTotally unacceptable, after hearing the audio show you guys need at least a month to recorver from SDCC.
I like the idea to use Paul's video.
Or you could do iFanboy: Remix and spice a rap by Missy Elliot and/or Ludacris into an old episode.
Enjoy your rest, gents.
Posted by ultimatehoratio on 07/29/09 at 02:59 PMMy life was safe and comfortable...now everything is a ruin and tatters is their nothing sacred. Is there nothing that we can count on. I demand you video tape something, anything....I want 30 minutes of a hobo reading Spider-man out loud.
I can only forgive this abomination if next weeks show is twice as long and has kittens riding roombas.
Posted by Crucio on 07/29/09 at 03:30 PMok
Posted by TheDudeVonDoom on 07/29/09 at 03:44 PMIn my earlier post I meant to say "splice". I just had a Victora-Beckham-induced Freudian Slip.
Posted by ultimatehoratio on 07/29/09 at 04:26 PMNOOOOO! NOOOOOO! NOOOOOO! WWWAAANNNMMMAAAVIIIDDEEEOOOO!!!!! NOOOOOO!!!! NOOOOOOOOO!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
...That's cool.
Posted by Dudezilla2008 on 07/29/09 at 05:55 PM
i'm so sad now
Posted by somethingblue13 on 07/29/09 at 06:35 PM"Oh my god, you bitch! I'm so gonna slap you!"-Roman Holiday....kinda.
Joking of course. I can't wait to see how epic your SDCC video(s) will be.
Posted by TheNextChampion on 07/29/09 at 08:35 PMCompletely understandable. You guys worked your collective asses off last week
Posted by JGG on 07/29/09 at 10:17 PMI think we can let it slip. BUT! Only this once.
Posted by brattyben on 07/29/09 at 10:19 PMHA! I knew it! That's why I didn't watch last wednesday's video. Chalk one up for this boy scout here... always prepared for anything. *pat's self on back*
Posted by Mangaman on 07/29/09 at 10:28 PMDoes this mean that there isn't a pick of the week this week either?
Posted by WonderManFan on 07/29/09 at 11:24 PMNo, there is just no video show this week. Everything else is as normal.
Posted by conor on 07/29/09 at 11:29 PMWell maybe if you didnt have that prime rib and fried ice cream....this wouldn't have happened.
Or maybe Thomas Jane had something to do with this....*plays dramatic music*
Posted by TheNextChampion on 07/30/09 at 12:20 AMMy friend Gordon always fixes my car for free. One time he said something like "Give me a few days to get to it". I dont know why,exactly, but this feels like that time. More power to you guys. I got him a borders gift card I think. I will become a memeber when rent gets paid. I wish you guys had a tote bag like npr. seriously. or a button/badge.
Posted by christian on 07/30/09 at 02:15 AMtotally afree with Paul's videos in the feed. Otherwise enjoy your week off (smirks).
Posted by Pompster on 07/30/09 at 07:12 AMafree ?????? Must learn totype
Posted by Pompster on 07/30/09 at 07:13 AMI'd have been surprised if there *was* a show this week. After following Twitter you all busted your asses for us, and sounds like it's gonna be the best Con show yet. Enjoy some rest, guys, you earned it :)
Posted by Eyun on 07/30/09 at 08:19 AM@christian - You get some buttons and stickers when you join and if you get the big membership you get a t-shirt (I think).
Posted by stuclach on 07/30/09 at 08:43 AMbut i am nothing without the good ship iFanboy!! =(
Posted by Aquaman on 07/30/09 at 11:33 AMheck i aint madatcha
Posted by gideon on 07/30/09 at 02:01 PMOk it's wednesday. You tell me ifanboy, whats the best video show you've ever done so I can rewatch it.
Posted by Gabe on 07/30/09 at 07:24 PMI remember the really hard to watch "Love" episode. If you haven't seen it, check it out solely for Josh.
Posted by miyamotofreak on 07/30/09 at 08:38 PMThanks for the love, guys, but I'm not quite ready for prime time. ;)
Posted by PaulMontgomery on 07/30/09 at 08:41 PMHeh, just watched the beginning of it. I miss Gordon on the show.
Posted by miyamotofreak on 07/30/09 at 08:41 PMGordon appearing through the bedroom window is possibly my favorite visual in all the video shows.
Except, of course, for Josh trying to start the boat engine in his review of Tales to Astonish (my favorite Mini ever).
Posted by PaulMontgomery on 07/30/09 at 08:44 PMAs long as you guys are drinking and not working it is ok with me.
Posted by 0and18 on 07/30/09 at 10:00 PM@Paul when did Gordon appear through a bedroom window?
Posted by Gabe on 07/30/09 at 11:26 PMlost without you...
Posted by DenverDave on 07/31/09 at 02:39 PMI forgive you.
Posted by NoName7579 on 08/01/09 at 12:21 PM


Totally understandable.
Heeey, is that a Graham Greene reference? Or just a Catholic reference?
