Episode 18…..Pending Apple Approval

Tuesday, July 18th, 2006

Thank you to all our listeners that come back consistently despite our vicious iTunes problems.  Chris totally goes off explaining the problems and that it is nearly fixed.  We love you guys!!!  Nintendo pops out a little more info on their new Wii controller and it's functionality while Sony continues what we believe to be there downward spiral with the loss of UMD movies.  The possible switch to Memory Stick Duo movies might work, but we doubt it.  Not to mention we doubt the two new PlayStation 3 videos; one of the user interface and other of the unit itself.  Keeping it light we toss in a clip from Chappelle's Show with Wayne Brady, arguably one of the top ten from the show.  Drool hits the floor over the new Transformers Movie pictures, but the fear they make too many changes to classic things lives.  Mike finally saw X-men and we talked about other comic book stuff, like the Iron Man movie.  Want a tank?  Buy it now on Amazon!  It comes equipped with a kickin system to listen to Gangsta Master Yoda and his rap.  Japan causes more pain to humanity with WTF Is Wrong With Japanese People!  The new Mario Basketball DS commercial makes you laugh, while the male population, 10% with no sex, makes you think,  huh?  The pimp talk show host monkey makes you think damn he's good, better than me, and I'm human.  And of course the fly circus makes you think, gosh maybe Mike is right and we should erase Japan from existence, or at bare minimum they should cut the shit out, like President Bush said to Tony Blair.  Power to the Penguins!!!

Episode 17: Penguin 360….Back to Our Roots, Bitches!

Thursday, July 13th, 2006

And We're Back!!!  This week we went old school and tried to bring things back to our roots a bit with one of our stories.  Gamefly has already added Wii and PS3 games to it's list despite not evening being available yet.  As Sony continues to have more problems such as pushing back assembly to next month Cell chips yield, Nintendo steps up their game further by having one million Wii units ready by August.  On the light side, DS Lite that is, Star Fox is all set to make his debut on the new handheld dynamo.  Plus, Mario glass figures made in Mexico, can I get a w00t?  We learned all about Net Neutrality from Ask A Ninja and Chris whilst Senator Ted Stevens absolutely butchers the definition of the Internet.  We have both regular and techno; take your pick.  Man arrested for planting stone soccer balls in Germany….need we say more on that?  Scientology takes the high road when one of it's members assaults a man making a documentary and then denies his involvement.  Grats to South Park on their Emmy nod for "Trapped in the Closet," and to Comedy Central for airing the episode once again.  Still confused?  Let Stephen Colbert explain for you.  This week Japanese architecture goes down the toilet, while more wacky people scare others.  All hail Kobayashi and his amazing stomach!!!  Nathen's Hot Dog Champion Sixth Time in a Row!  Like pranks?  Well we've got two for you.  One in the office and the other in the dorm.  One goes over well and the other does not, you watch and find which one is which.  And finally, think twice next time you're mugged at gun point by a balloon or get into a brawl with a pickle….wait those are inanimate objects, people are actually scared of them??  Wow Maury Povich, take us out!

Episode 16: America, Fuck Yeah!

Tuesday, July 4th, 2006

Hoist the flags and get your salute on bitches, it's The Transcontinental Penguin Super Show's Happy Birthday America episode!! Today we talked about some really cool videos and things on our minds. We found a video of a real working scale F-14 fighter jet. Canada continues is drag on the world by hiding a terrorist who claims Bungee and Microsoft's Halo made him train terrorists. In other world news, a stupid little girl in Britain learns a valuable lesson about explosive grenades thanks to her Green Day American Idiot T-shirt. The highly anticipated Transformers movie with be released the same day along with the video game, though no screens available just yet. Then we open the flood gates on those little piggly 'sum bitch Scientologists when we bash their cult, uh that is religion, and a wacky security guard with a camera. Retirethepenny.org teaches us that even our smallest unit of currency is too damn expensive. Can we get a fuck ya, America; Allow the glowy green goodness of our case mod link to set the tone for our weekly public awareness campaign in this week's WTF is Wrong With Japanese People. A tiny link shows you that our favorite anime, Dragonball Z, has more than likely reached the end in Japan. And to add cock thrusting to injury, Razor Ramon a.k.a. Hard Gay shows us just what to do to get a child to eat their veggies….that's right folks…thrust cock into face and repeat. Take us out Jimmy Hendrix with our nation's anthem The Star Spangled Banner!

Episode 15: Saved By The Penguin

Saturday, July 1st, 2006
Penguin Super Show coming at you this week with talks about Superman Returns, Spiderman 3 Teaser Trailer, and poor Mike still not seeing X-men: The Last Stand.
We also discussed Bill Gates upcoming retirement from his duties aboard the U.S.S. Titanic….sorry Microsoft and the coming of Apocalypse with the recent fusion of Dell and AMD. We learned Dustin Diamond, a.k.a. Screech from Saved by the Bell pimps his likeness on t-shirts in an effort to save his home and found a funny video of a woman flirting on a subway, mimicking the guy in front of her.
Of course what would an episode of TTCPSS be without the standard issue Sony bashing, problems, and blind insanity of the once top dog in the video game industry.
Then, we blow your mind with more craziness from the land of the rising sun and dragons on this week's WTF is Wrong With Japanese people featuring Japan CO2 solving problem, there's no sex in the Japan Champagne room, and Wake Up Call Pranks.'
Wrapping up with our tirade and disdain of different sects of people including but not limited to Scientology and their fake religion, Lesbo's are all dikes, Mexicans aren't real people, Hello Kitty is Stupid, Para Para is F-ing Stupid, and of course good old Japanese people. Guess we'll just use the profits from our Circuity City video game sale plug to fend off the lawsuits from Tom Cruise, Rosie O'Donnell, Julio and Manuel, and pretty much all of Japan…
