ExplicitWhat else would we have done? | It’s the final GMCRF fm. Today we have the news, the review of the Katy Price magazine and, as it is the last one, reminisce about the show. Finally, in the place I would usually plug the website relentlessly I would like to write a very brief farewell to you. It, if you have religiously followed both Will and Myself on this podcast adventure, is has been a good few years… and it has been really quite delightful. From the early days of the Dan Barker Show with William Jones when we were solely doing a video podcast to the very end. This one. The video show meant editing away on the iMac using iMovie, using poor cameras and hosting on a .mac account. It was probably the most awful (yet strangely charming) production we have ever done; two idiots making the longest straw ever, to two idiots playing golf with éclairs and eggs. Anywhere, in the early days of the show we decided to do a very brief audio show (entitled, imaginatively enough, “The Dan Barker Audio Show”). This was to describe the production process of the show (I don’t know how we claimed to have one, it was Will and I doing stupid things) and to serve as an advert of sorts, but it quickly morphed into something in its own. The video show was possibly one of the most brilliant excuses for messing around, filming it and then transforming this poor quality footage into something which was a better, more refined package we could call our own show. Two of the best episodes we did, naturally, were our last. Firstly, we had the JFK extravaganza. With, what is in hindsight, a pretty poor script, we both spent the day building a narrative to explain the true cause behind the death of an American president and the second episode is the one after that, in which we then tried to tie the loose ends up because of the complete lack of continuity and attempt to return to ‘normal programming’. This would be the last Dan Barker Video Show. For some reason we paused for a while. Then Will, Richard and I started GMCRF fm. Again, with the same slapdash style .Mac website we moved away from the type of slander present in the Audio Show to a more topic focused discussion. We, for some reason, chose Gaming, chiefly because of Richards insistence and also our desire to try something new despite the Audio Show pointing both Will and I in the direction we ended up going with in the later 20ish episodes (trashy news, random arguments, political chat and naturally, the type of brilliant rants as with the Trafigura episode – so basically talk radio). I feel like this though, was important. We quickly both developed a completely unique insight into the games industry, but we also had shown to our selves that a third person really didn’t work for the show. Perhaps because it was a different type of relationship we had with Richard, or perhaps its because we had different interests and opinions. However, I felt that it was a significant milestone, both with Richard on the ‘new’ podcast and then afterwards when Richard had left and Will and I continued. As mentioned in the show, this isn’t something we were necessarily willing to talk about much (until this episode) for some reason, Richards name cropped up from time to time as a joke wondering where his attendance was or for some other obscure reason, but on reflection he was a footnote in its existence. There was not the correct relationship between Richard and the two of us. This is quite clear in the episode Will isn’t here, it doesn’t flow. It’s broken. So I feel that if he continued to attend, and didn’t basically snub us for 15 minutes of his time, the show quite well wouldn’t be around today. It certainly wouldn’t have been the same as it is. So in a way, I regret to say it, but I thank Richard for not coming that day (which in effect signalled his departure, though at the time it didn’t seem that clear to us). It enabled us to broaden our horizons, it enabled us to flow much better and | 9/8/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitTime travel, an episode. | Episode 52, the episode from the future which is also from the pasts past. Yes, the lack of news today is explained by two things, A) the fact that in this episode we have travelled in time B) The lack of important news anywhere But on the bright side we do talk about Candy Bar Girls, which is the single greatest television programme on Channel 5, ever. And we have a Sunday AM style review of the newspapers, yes, its all kicking off today you know. Do as usual in that you go to gmcrf.co.uk etc… | 7/26/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitAllegedly | Another brilliant episode today. We have arguments about advertising, the ethics of phone hacking and the low-down on the News of the World downfall. On a more serious note we have the latest celebrity news from the world of Katie Price, a review of Jenifer Anniston’s new film and an all important apology from the co-host his self. Remember you can go to www.gmcrf.co.uk, email us at letters@gmcrf.co.uk and share the episode. NOTE: All claims in this episode around the newspaper allegations are allegedly. Due care was taken in ensuring that you heard this however if this wasn’t sufficiently conveyed most of these claims haven’t been proven yet and therefore are alleged claims. | 7/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
