Idle Thumbs Kickstarter Progresscast
by Idle Thumbs Network
In 2012 Idle Thumbs ran a Kickstarter campaign, not just to bring back the Idle Thumbs podcast, but to try and turn Idle Thumbs into a small podcast network, with a studio, a new website, and the ability to exist for years to come. We documented that time in this podcast.
Episodes
-
Kickstarter Progresscast The Sixteenth One
In this, the final Progresscast we talk about our plans for the site, the blog, our appearance at PAX and QuakeCon, and a bunch of video games; Jake has a spell; and we reminisce about the career of an American treasure.
-
Kickstarter Progresscast The Fifteenth One
Did you know you can play a game of Civ V: Gods & Kings with a slow enough clock and a big enough map that it replaces real life? Also discussed: What happened to sim games as hardware got better: A lament for Super Black Bass, Sports Games versus eSports Games, combo breakers and sick half-nelsons.
-
Kickstarter Progresscast The Fourteenth One
Chris has started progressing through Civilization V: Gods & Kings, and we discuss his progress in this Progresscast. There's some Kickstarter news in it, too.
-
Kickstarter Progresscast The Thirteenth One
Two thousand years in the future, the world has collapsed into a nightmare of destruction and despair. Only Idle Thumbs remains. We won't take so long next time. In the meantime, wander through the wasteland with us as we discuss video games, the web, and progress.
-
Kickstarter Progresscast The Twelfth One
The Progresscast goes one-time, rule-breakingly meta, as we discuss recent events in our own day jobs. Sean and Jake talk about The Walking Dead, Chris talks about his new digs at Double Fine Productions, and we're joined by special guest Steve Gaynor to talk about his new endeavor The Fullbright...

May 7, 2012: The Eleventh One
The contents of this episode have been lost to time. You'll have to listen to it to find out what secrets it contains.
-
April 19, 2012: The Tenth One
If our podcast drove off a cliff with wild abandon, some wheels off, and possibly on fire, would you follow? We can only hope so, as the Idle Thumbs Kickstarter Progresscast: The Tenth One is fast approaching.
-
Kickstarter Progresscast The Ninth One
Without a lot of concrete Kickstarter news for you, we fall back on old habits and decide to talk about games for the entirely of this week's Progresscast. We hope you don't mind.
-
Kickstarter Progresscast The Eighth One
Join us, readers, for this public Progresscast as we descend into the dark bowels of Minecraft servers and secret holes, only to find the quietest place in the world. (That place is absolutely guaranteed not to be the Idle Thumbs office in its current state.) You would do well to read this...
-
March 27, 2012: The Seventh One
Darkness engulfs you and beetles skitter across the dank, putrid walls as your sanity erodes. All is lost. You despair. Your grasp on reality finally slips, and in your final shreds of lucidity you hear a group of voices echo in the darkness. ".....I'm Chris Remo........I'm Jake Rodkin.......and...

March 21, 2012: The Sixth One
In the final hours of our Kickstarter campaign, enjoy this unusually progress-oriented Idle Thumbs Progresscast. Much news is discussed, most crucially our upcoming partnership with the strategy game podcast Three Moves Ahead. Read our announcement and check out their website. We're excited. Also...

March 15, 2012: The Fifth One
GDC came and went and in its frothy wash we found our Kickstarter cresting 400%. We continue to be dumbfounded and ever grateful. There really are no words, dear reader. There are only sirens. For those who were in town for the Game Developers Conference, we hosted a small rooftop BBQ which…

March 1, 2012: The Fourth One
In this episode of the Kickstarter Progresscast we start talking about the story behind Thirty Flights of Loving, then spin off to discuss upcoming indie game FTL, Flotilla, and Full Spectrum Warrior. Plus there's a bunch of Kangaroo Jack content at the end, for some reason.

F. Nick Breckoncast Transmission 87
As you know, the original Idle Thumbs podcast lineup included our dear friend Nick Breckon, who also caused the podcast's original destruction when he left the picturesque foggy hills of San Francisco for the nondescript suburban flatness of Maryland. As you do not know, leaving the familiar…

February 27, 2012: The Boot, the Obelisk, and the Eye
Enjoy this conversation with Kickstarter collaborator and artist extraordinaire Vincent Perea. He joins us for Progresscast The Third One to briefly discuss his process and then lengthily discuss The Legend of Zelda continuity and McDonald's Chicken McNuggets. It's a hefty cast, befitting our...

February 24, 2012: The Dota One
This may come as a shock to you, but sometimes we talk about video games even when there are no microphones in front of our faces. We were surprised as well when this happened last week, so halfway through a conversation about Dota 2 we hastily scrounged up a portable recorder and set things…

February 21, 2012: The Second One
Wow. There are no words, readers. But as there is this text field here on the update page, we're going to have to try to find some. We are floored by your gratitude and support. It never occurred to us that we'd meet our goal in a day, nay, a twelfth of a day. So here is our Progresscast: The...

February 20, 2012: The First One
Thanks so much for helping us cast pods into faces--we have big plans for the podcast and for the site. This is the first of what will hopefully be numerous short podblasts we release over the course of this campaign as we get Idle Thumbs back up and running. (We recorded this before the...
