The Idle Thumbs Podcast
Idle Thumbs casts its pod into your face with off-the-cuff, incisive, multiplatform video gaming discussion. No on-air schedules, no Skype. Hands-on accounts and stunning commentary abound.
As you can see over in the sidebar, Space Asshole from Idle Thumbs 48: In Space is now available for MP3 download. In stereo!
Nick also went out of his way to create this accompanying video showing the space asshole in action. It's worth noting that the vast majority of this video was comprised of footage he simply had lying around after some FRAPS capture sessions of Reactor Zero's PC version of Volition's Red Faction: Guerrilla, before this song existed--this game is so wonderfully conducive to space assholism that there was little need to consciously sync it up.
And be sure to watch to the very end. Some of you may have seen an earlier, shorter, version of this video that the internet somehow found. This one's the real deal.
