The 404 316: Where Kenley does her best Wilson
Enough with the lame updates
(Credit: Switched.com)With Wilson at the auto expo in town, our good friend Kenley Bradstreet from "Heavy & Flow" joins us today on the show. We chat about Gore Verbinski's decision to make BioShock over another pirates movie and how that'll either be the best or worst thing he's ever done.
Justin then enlightens us about the logistical issues with sending feces through the United States Postal Service and how it isn't exactly a crime. First thing you'll want to do with the new OnStar system in the event of a car accident is Twitter about it as the service has found its way to the on-board vehicle communication system.
Next Kenley tells us about The Transcendent Man, Ray Kurzweil, and how he used to come visit the Bradstreet home on major holidays. Finally, we touch on some tech no-nos, a few tech-inspired faux pas (can you even pluralize that?) that we're all guilty of.
Make sure you keep sending in those stories of survival for a chance to win Tom Avery's incredible book, "To the End of the Earth". Leave us an email (the404 [at] cnet [dot] com or call in @ 866-404-CNET).

Before covering games and gear for CNET Reviews, Jeff Bakalar dabbled in film and video production. An avid writer, reader, and gamer, Jeff is also an obsessive New Jersey Devils hockey fan. Catch him live every day as the co-host of CNET's infamous podcast, The 404.
Wilson Tang is an associate producer for CNET TV. He's a part-time artist and filmmaker and has written and directed several films. He likes long walks on the beach and girls.
Jeff Bakalar is an editor for CNET Reviews, getting all the dirt on the gaming industry. After spending a few years in the world of film production, he has settled down and currently lives in New Jersey. He's an avid writer, gamer, and full-time pessimist.
Justin Yu can be found tinkering with printers and other peripherals for CNET, when he's not adjusting his headphones, riding his bike, or eating hot dogs for breakfast.
Garbage journalism reaches a new low.
Where the heck is that link you said you were going to post in the show notes? It was the link regarding Kenley's comments about the guy that worked with her dad... I want to check that site out.
Anyways, hate the show!

You can check out the trailer there.
I think it hurts the show when it's like "Sleep Doctor! Guy who climbed a mountain! Jonothan Colton! Some girl nobody knows, hasn't done anything and isn't remotely interesting!"
Kenly is a friend of the show, not the greatest fill-in but what do you expect. Its not like the 404 has a big ass budget and writers. They prepare a few minutes before the show and then have some fun.
I can understand that the show can have off days sometimes, but I just think it would be better to leave her off than have her fill in.
Just my personal opinion though.
Justin
huh...
