    While all the rest of the world was scouring the Internet for videos of their favorite Super Bowl commercials, The Weekly Geek was recording our least caustic podcast ever! Chris, Qais, Mack and Colette ramble about the dangers of man-children, squeal about Ender's Game becoming a...uh...game (speculating which other books would make good games in the process), cast a realistically pessimistic eye on Rock Band for the Wii, and unapologetically profess their rampant book-lust. Our PopCap cover contest winners are announced within, and the moment you've all been waiting for: Qais gets a new gamertag.

    I can't believe theres people who haven't read Ender's Game. Even if you skip the 6 sequels and the spin off series "Ender's Shadow" it has to be read.

    This podcast is my favourite because I'm mentioned in it. Kids, take note! If you want to get a shout on your favourite podcast, play cool games and don't be a dick.

    LIES! The song was from Technology Crisis I, not II.
