Norm is such a dick in this new app of the day video. I love it!

 

[Technosteve]

This last brick standing marathon requires MiniFigs of norm will and Gary be made.

 

[Felix Lighter]

As a kid, my 2 favorite toys were Lego and Transformers and eventually I was just making transformers out of Lego. I never had enough of the moving joint pieces to ever really make exactly what I wanted. After listening to all this Lego talk, I considered buying a massive amount of miscellaneous Lego and just going build crazy, like I was a kid again. That was until I looked into the price. If I am going to get into it again I would have to reacquire a collection slower than I was initially hoping. Imagine a world where there was infinite Lego and the piece that you needed was always at your finger tips.

Is that the official name? I like it

 

[Gary Whitta]

I think the official name is Bricking Bad.

If you're going TV shows I guess Will put his foot down on Fresh Prince of Brick-Air? What a party pooper

 

[Xater]

When is the Lego feature actually starting? I can't believe that I am actually excited to see these two guys building Lego Star Wars models...

 

[newjeruse]

With rumors of iPhone 5 having a larger screen, I predict large amounts of backpedaling from Gary and Will on this issue. All of a sudden the larger retina display will be a magical experience and that huge concern for personal pocket space will vanish into thin air.

On his "Not a Jar" Will said they were building a small backlog of episodes (to make sure they have something for every weekday), and it could be starting Feb 1. Each episode is supposed to be around 30+ minutes too.

I'll certainly get one if it turns out to be true. Google Nav and a larger screen are the two things I especially care about on Android. I expect Apple will address their crappy GPS with the next version of iOS.

That's kinda lame...GB already has Breaking Brad.

Send your better suggestions to @willsmith and @nchan!

I know right....
Early Feb so somewhere next week maybe next after that but not later.

Fresh Prince of Brick-Air

It should be called this.

 

[randomlyrossy]

I thought the official name was "The Amazing Test"?

 

[Recon]

I must see this, so I guess it is finally time to subscribe to Whiskey media. I wish I could just pay for Tested, since I dont actually go to Giantbomb/Screened/Comic Vine. But I do listen to all the podcasts so it is justifiable.

 

[normanchan]

I thought the official name was "The Amazing Test"?

it is, though the subtitle is either going to be BRICKED or Bricking Bad

 

[shadyspace]

Yeah. Leave the Breaking Bad pun to GB. You can't beat Breaking Brad.

 

[Kurdel]

We need of voice over of Gary saying "Block off!" in the intro sequence.

 

[randomlyrossy]

Does the term "Bricking it" play in the US? Cause I think that'd be pretty great.

Holy shit Puzzlejuice looks awesome. Someone buy me a decent iOS device, I'll repay you in hugs

 

[Jintor]

The Amazing Test: The Great Space Race

Not bad.

 

[PjotrStroganov]

Comment on the podcast: Building a lego kit is gratifying Garry, but you'll only reach the first level of gratification. The next level is when you use your experience from earlier projects and build something unique.

We have started buying generic bricks for just that purpose! Going to start a big collection of bricks like I had when I was a kid.

 

[PjotrStroganov]

Then there is nothing else to do than to enviously stare at my computer screen.

 

[Aruarian Reflection]

Will and Norm will probably be annoyed when they see the crop of Amazing Race 20 contestants that were selected over them. Seems like half the cast are either military or guidos

This is a foregone conclusion. iPhones feel like little kids' toys after using the bigger Android/WinPho7 phones so I'm glad Apple's going bigger

 

[Gala]

Fresh Brick of Bel Air would be my favorite.

Hey Tested, I hope you guys talk about the NYTimes series iEconomy on the podcast.

I got my LOD cable in today and set it all up in my car. It does definitely sound better. When using just the aux cable sound would distort at higher volumes but that doesn't seem to be happening now. Great use of $5.50.

 

[No_Style]

Brad & Loyd Case will be on this week's podcast. I am very much looking forward to it!

 

[Chuck]

A new episode of This is Only a Test is live!

Episode 105 - The Fast and the Fourier - 01/26/2012

On this week's episode, Loyd talks board games, Brad makes a joke, and Norm brings in late-breaking news. All that, plus Apple has a good quarter, Xbox video problems, the issues with ultrabooks, Makerbot breakthroughs, a 6x speed next Xbox, and another episode of fake outtakes.

Wait, you mean THE Wilsmith?

Rest in Peace.

 

[wolfmat]

Should say "WILSMITH HAS PASSED AWAY. NOT A SINGLE FUCK IS GIVEN AS WILSMITH IS PUSHED OFF THE WAGON."

(I really didn't care much for Independence Day)

It's a dangerous life in the wild, wild west.

Brad & Loyd Case will be on this week's podcast. I am very much looking forward to it!

Loyd is awesome. Always nice to see him join the podcast.

 

[ghostmind]

Brad and Loyd should be on the podcast on a regular basis - maybe not every week, but more often at least.

 

[Gary Whitta]

Damn, I missed the week with the huge Apple earnings report ;-)

 

[Curufinwe]

The title should be "Getting Testy: Battle of the Bricks".

 

[Aaron]

Damn, I missed the week with the huge Apple earnings report ;-)

Does the fact that Nintendo essentially shit the bed in their 'earnings' make it all the sweeter?

 

[Gomu Gomu]

the issues with ultrabooks

Whoa, I'm planning on buying an ultrabook very soon. Guess I'm gonna have to listen to know what issues do they have.

 

[normanchan]

made by rallier on the tested forums.

 

[KarmaCow]

Just what the internet needed, more nightmare fuel.

Gary did you get the steak wit wiz?
