I give you the full scoop including a play by play of the event.No live interviews, because my iRiver decided not to cooperate. I plan a kind of make up, so don’t be too mad please. Thanks.

I like LEGO and I have metioned it before on the show. Well it turns out there is a MacCast listener who does his own LEGO podcaast. Here is a snippet of the email he sent me:

I noticed during the last podcast that you were a fan of LEGO. Just
wanted to let you know that I have started a new LEGO podcast. On the
show we discuss LEGO fandom for the adult fan of LEGO (AFOLs) and
whatever items I think might be of interest to LEGO fans (I sneak a
MAC plug in every chance I get). Time permitted (and I know your time
is precious!), check out my podcast at:

If your into LEGO you may want to check it out.

Sorry gang no show today. I have been working hard to prep the Tiger pre-release show and make other updates to the site. Look for the Tiger pre-release show on Wednesday and then the live Tiger release show on Friday.

OK geeks. It sounds like more people are interested in stuff than apparel. I just added a coffee mug, mousepad and bumper sticker to the mix of stuff available at Podthreads.com. I hope you like it. Purchases will go to help support the show. Thanks.
