The Podtacular Adventures! Episode 19: The Newbie

Previously, on The Potacular Adventures…

“Hooray!” everyone cheered. And JVB played his butt-trumpet in celebration! Then, they got onto the Pelican and flew to Avalanche to fight the next fight.

Foo Mo had been transported to some sort of new map. There he saw Rumplebigbutt. He knew he was dead. So, he found a screen showing the Podtacular Fellowship and did indeed stop that grenade. Then, he saw someone enter the room…

The Podtacular Adventures!
Episode 18: For Foo Mo!

The fellowship continued on until they were on the bridge where they would later get picked up. There were at least 10 brutes just waiting there, eating crumpets.

About 2 years ago, not long after I recieved my iPod for a Christmas present, my 5th grade teacher was doing a podcast featuring everyone from our class as guest hosts. The show was called The McKenna Show. Although I never got on the podcast, due to time, I made an appearance to talk about the Olympic games that year. After my 5th grade year in school, I decided to look into these so-called "podcasts".

I was a Halo fan. I had an Xbox 360 at the time, with Halo 2. So, I had the idea to look for Halo podcasts on iTunes. This thing called "Podtacular" showed up. "What is this, Podtacular?" I thought. I clicked subscribe. That click would ultimately be the reason I even bothered to get Xbox Live, Halo, or a 360 for that matter. That click would change my life.

I started listening at the Custom's and Call-ins episode where just about every other call-in was an imperssonation of the Gravemind. I was laughing hysterically! I loved it. I believe the episode was Episode 65.

It took me about 15 episodes to finally sign up on podtacular.com and submit stuff for the show. I still remember the first time my comment got read. It was Episode 92, I believe. The show where KP from Bungie guest-hosted. I was SO EXCITED. It was just so awesome to me to get my comment read on the show.

12 episodes later, I would go on a quest that would eventually get me a spot in the Podtacular Hall of Fame. Last year, over my Spring Break, I listened to all 104 episodes of the Podtacular in ONE WEEK. It was the closest thing to a world record I'd ever done, and I loved it. I heard every joke, every spelchek Sarge impression, every little thing! And it was awesome.

Some called my crazy, some called me a kid with no life, some called my mentally ill (not really, but still ;)). But, it didn't end there.

I started a story, a fictional story about the community. How everyone was literally sucked into Crackdown then into the Halo 3 beta, then into Halo 3. I had an artist for 1 episode, one of my best Podtacular friends, SGO LoneWarrior. It was just awesome.

Then, I got, to me, the chance of a lifetime. Foo Mo Jive invited me to guest host on Podtacular, Episode 118, The Forza 2 show, and I gladly accepted. It was so much fun. It was a privelage, and I loved it. I also guest hosted on The Storm campaign show, Episode 141. Again, it was so much fun, and I loved it.

Podtacular welcomed me with open arms, and introduced me to the community. And I want to thank you.

Every person I'm about to list has somehow helped me in the community, and those guys are just awesome, along with every other member of the community.

Foo Mo Jive, JVB, SGO LoneWarrior, Dialpex, ChuckieJ, Logan Payne, DustStorm, KrashCourse, JABADAPOLLARD, Klutch27, Killazilla, Plasma Qrenades, Kimo, knight light, bC, and many, many others.

Podtacular IS my second family. I will never leave it. I will never trash it. I will do my best to help it out, to, in a sense, give back for what it has done for me. Podtacular will never die. I love Podtacular. And I thank you.

Love,
Lilkuke

The Podtacular Adventures!
Episode 17: The fall of the man
By Lilkuke

Previously on The Podtacular Adventures:

“Chief! You’re alive! w00t!” Foo Mo cheered. There were 3 other pods behind the Chief‘s, and 2 of the 3 died, but, then, the last pod opened, and out climbed the deadliest pirate at Podtacular…

To be continued…

NOW:

The one and only CapnKrunk climbed out of the pod.
“Krunk! How did you get here?” Brent exclaimed.
“Well, I was in Crackdown, then, I heard Klutch singing Christina Aguilera in the background and I ran. I ran until I got to this portal, then I jumped through. I ended up in the military base. All the pods except one were gone, so, I climbed in. Then, I flew here and crashed, and, here I am!” Krunk explained.
“Sweet, hey- did you bring my butt trumpet?” JVB asked. Everyone just stared blankly back at him.
“Umm- no. Anyway, here we are in the jungle, so, let’s try to get out.”
“Chief! Let’s go” Johnson said. There was Johnson, The Chief, The Arbiter, Foo Mo Jive, JVBizzle, CapnKrunk, Dialpex, BrentGamer, and a bunch of other random marines who did pretty much nothing to help. They were the FELLOWSHIP OF THE HALO.

While they were walking along, CapnKrunk found a Beam Rifle on the ground. The Arbiter told Krunk to give it to him, because he had experience with weapons overheating in his bare hands, but, Krunk said he was just gonna try. So, he shot it at this Jackal twice and it overheated and bruned his pinky finger off.
“PINKY!!! NOOOOOOO!!! Why did he die? I wish he were still alive! It’s all my fault. AAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!”
“Whoa, where’d that come from Krunk?” Foo Mo asked.
“Well, I took lessons from a pianist, and he gave me my own piano.” There was distinct muttering of “oh- ok- yeah, sure- whatever”.
“Guys, wait, Pinky died!”
“NOOOO!!! Why did he die? I wish he wer-”
“Shut up! It’s just a flippin’ finger” Brent said, “You’ll get it back someday.”
“Anyway, now that we all composed ourselves, let’s finish this fight.” The Chief said.
“Look Krunk, unless you want to burn off your whole hand, you better give me that Beam Rifle.”
“S-S-su-sure, n-no pr-problem.” The fellowship continued on until they were on the bridge where they would later get picked up. There were at least 10 brutes just waiting there, eating crumpets.
“CRUMPETS?!?! WHERE???? I CAN HAZ CRUMPETZ!!!” Foo Mo screamed. Then, he rushed out. The Brute Chieftain had a gravity hammer and all the rest of the Fellowship heard was Foo Mo screaming. What was really happening was he was flying through the air because the chieftain had hit him dead on with a gravity hammer. Foo Mo flew back to where the others were taking cover. JVB examined him.
“F-Foo Mo? Are you there, buddy? Please, say something…”
“Y-you guys… d-do-don’t be a f-f-fool like m-me. I will s-see you g-guys n-n-next ti-time… uhhh….” JVB stared back at Foo Mo for a while. Then, JVB said,
“He’s dead.”
