The Wombat Show Song
http://www.cheapassgamer.com/podcast/wombatmomsong.mp3

Trixie (Xbox) interviews Wombat

Looks like an interesting lineup.

I'll download it and listen to it tomorrow.

Awesome, downloading now.

Hopefully this isn't a 2 hour baby bore fest. I can't wait to listen. That stuff is just getting a little old.

*EDIT* Oh boy, what a way to start. This show will be the start of the Adcast probably.

Awesome!

Over 2 hours! I will listen now!

Thanks

EDIT: hey the Arbiter is on the CAGcast lol The dude in the Navy ad is the same guy who does the voice fo the Arbiter

Wombat kinda looks like a pedophile in this video. Like one of those guys on DateLine NBC "To Catch a Predator." LOL.

Clearly you are confusing him with Brad Childress.

This CAGCAST is brought to you by the US Navy. Talk about selling out. Maybe Cheapy didn't get enough CAGs to preorder Rock Band for those high commissions. The CAGCAST is a joke.

And come on Cheapy... let go of your Rock Band scam. Posting it over and over in your news section, telling us how many people are preordering it and how great it is, and how many people have preordered it already... next you'll be telling us how many people have ordered the HD DVD package you linked to. "Wow, so many people have preordered Rock Band, it's great, get in on the action, just click this link!" Pathetic. Stop with your scams already...

Now there are 3 Navy advertisements in the show? Just because you think it will help you in the eyes of the gaming world? ARE YOU FRIGGIN' KIDDING? First of all, the Navy is the gayest of all the military branches. Secondly, You run a site about getting games cheap. You're not the media. You just have friends who work for the media that put you over. The Podcast helps, but don't forget why you can do this for a living. Thirdly, no one will think any more of you just because you put ads in the show. I hope it's worth pissing off your fans for it.

People will defend you because they like you, but when they look at your so called reasons and no longer are blind to it... you will be just like your underwear, ripped.

Thanks, now when I sleep listening to the show, I will be getting subliminal messages to join the Navy.

Yay, the moron known as LSpear has returned!

You know, it's blatantly obvious you're using multiple accounts when you post in succession at 2:00 in the morning.

lol I didn't know Wombat was that old.

Holy , I lost it when Wombat played his mom's contest entry. That was awesome.

"If you enjoy your freedom, thank a veteran"

Watch your mouth about the United States Navy, knucklehead.

There's something you have to realize about Cheapy and Wombat. They are two nobodys who dream of being in the industry. They also like money. Therefore it is not suprising that Cheapy would accept money from ANY sponsor wanting to advertise on his show -- because in the end Cheapy gets MONEY from it. Cheapy's site is "cheapassgamer" yet he posts "deals" consisting of expensive HD-DVD drives and Rock Band bundles. Why? Does he want to help you save money, or does he want to make money for himself? The answer is obvious to anyone with half a brain. Can you blame him though? We all love money. These are two guys talking about games and if they can get paid and get free games, it's all good for them. But for you... hmmmm.

Enough with the ad bitching. If you don't like it, GTFO. No one's forcing you to listen to the show or hang around here.

Edit: Good show, shipwreck. and good riddance to bad rubbish.

Now on to enjoying the show...

Yeah.. got so much work to do so this should help the hours past by.

Welcome Back.

Welcome back lspear76! Now where did I put that... oh there it is:



Please note: This banning is brought to you be general douchery.

Uh, what the hell? I could of sworn Wombat said he picked up RE4 for the Wii as well on a previous CAGcast.

I guess he lied.

Yeah, but the site does not only contain "Cheap" and "Ass" in the title, it also contains the word "GAMER" Cheapy D and Wombat are gamers like all of us and gamers dont just buy things that are on sale. the Cheapest CAGs out there have still bought a hot anticipated title for full price on the day it is released.

1.Cheapy posts the Rockband listing on the front page because it is a hot item that will sell out when it is released. He is alerting us when a chance to pre order comes up on Amazon because Rockband is going to sell like mad.

2. When has Cheapy put up a HD-DVD listing that did not involve a Price cut or free items included with purchase. Just because an item is expensive, that does not mean that it can have a good deal.

3. How are either Cheapy D or Wombat nobodys? they dont dream of being in the game industry - They are in the game industry. Regardless of what you may think of this site, CAG is a part of the Video Game community industry and gets a hell of a lot of attention from mainstream gaming outlets.
Both Cheapy D and Wombat are Invited to industry events. Are you?

4. Sell outs? did you not hear that Cheapy is donating his half of the ad money to charity. Wombat just bought a home and with a buy like that any dollar earned counts. The CAGcast is recorded,produced, and put up for download free of charge. both Cheapy and Wombat take time to produce this show for us to listen to without asking anything in return. There is absolutely no reason to freak out when a 30 second ad pops up in the cast.
both 1UP and IGN podcasts all have ads.
