In fact, Leigh is recording while driving to prove it.

Leigh starts things off by lying about why she is driving during the podcast. The real reason was Jon finally drove her insane and now she is off to check herself in. But before the paperwork can be finished, we are joined by Kevin (aka Grim), director of MMORPGs. We talk about all sorts of stuff including online gaming for kids, what exactly is a MMORPG, and how to destroy your secret identity as an Everquest guide. We also learn all of the cool things that will be featured on the MMO track.

You can find out more about the MMORPGs Track by following them on Twitter (@DCMMO) or by going to dc-mmo.org

Jon gets things rolling with a HUGE misconception on his part… which Leigh takes great pleasure in correcting. The gang then goes over much of the “official” party list – which at times confuses Jon.

They are joined by a returning guest of the 40 Days Podcasts, Kelly, director of American SciFi. Since we know Kelly so well from her appearance in last years recording, this podcast is a little more chaotic than usual (take that to mean whatever you like), but in the end we do eventually discuss the various guests and panels that she will feature on her panel.

Special Gaming Podcast Edition…

Rox of Spazhouse is back with another Survival Log Entry.

This time we do a special crossover podcast edition of the survival guide.

Well okay not exactly a crossover…

Like all of us in these last days leading up to the big D*C she is busy and figured she could knock out two birds with one 10 sided die.  So, we have decided to cross-post Rox’s DragonCon gaming guide from NeedCoffee.com’s Grue Cafe (with Widge’s permission of course).

So, go forth and roll your natural twenties.

Rox can be found on Twitter, at her blog, and campaigning to be Hobo Queen 2011.

This interview welcomes back Cindy and William of the Alternate History track.

Cindy has been the Director of the Alternate History track since it began (OK, that was just last year, but still technically correct) and William, basically, does whatever Cindy says.

We go over what you can expect from Alternate History’s second year as well as an update on how last year went. We also discuss how Steampunk is placing its stamp on pop-culture.

At times in this interview, there is some interference in the transmission of  Cindy and William’s voice. I suspect it had something to do with the static generated from their time machine.  So, sorry for that.

For this interview it is our pleasure to welcome Mary of the Young Adult Literature and Whedonverse tracks.

Mary is a six year staff veteran, first serving on what used to be called the Buffy Track (now Whedonverse) and then splitting her time with the Young Adult Literature track (aka the Not-Only-Twilight-And-Potter track or NOTAP for short*) as Bev’s Second; the topic of our discussion.

We learn all sorts of good stuff about Mary and the Young Adult Lit track. Not the least of which is what guests would make her squeal like a fan-girl if they ever came to Con. There is also a story about Lance Henriksen, but I’ll let you listen to find out about that.
