In 2012, most video game news seems to revolve around America.

0:07.0

Well, b-h-to-that.

We stand for Queen, Country and Video Games.

BRB, UK. Worst teeth, Better Accents Hello, hello

0:23.2

And indeed a big Olympic o'oy-hoi, it's Dan, it's BRB UK episode 25

0:29.4

And we are Bedel and South Korea are Olympicing

0:32.6

We've got golds

0:34.5

We're basically, we're the podcast equivalent

0:37.3

Of the guy to get the Korean flags mixed up. Oh, that was actually a bit funny. That's what we are. We're a bit funny. Yeah, we're a bit funny. So yes, welcome to BRB, UK. I'm Dan, one of your hosts, from the Olympic City of London, and another man who likes fondling a ring is Tim Hibb, say hello, sir. Worst introduction ever. You're the one who fondles your ring, mate. Really, really no. Which one of the Olympic rings, is it? Probably the red one, we'd have to go with that, no, being big red barrel, and that being appropriate for that sort of connotation. Yes, I was trying not to go that low, but, you know... Well, it's not that bad, it's not like, you know, I'm saying that he's the Olympic chocolate starfish or something like that. That would have been worse. That doesn't even make any sense. Have you never heard the term chocolate starfish? I heard term... No. It just... It has no relevance here. No... What? Hey? Anyway, I've confused Tim. That might make him... That might have shocked him into a stupor, and therefore he may cut the number of words he speaks down by a little about this week, which means we might actually finish the show on time.

1:45.7

But we have a man who comes from a country that is currently part of Great Britain.

1:50.0

And if they left, we would have had approximately one medal, I think, so far.

1:54.9

It's John. He's from Scotland.

1:56.6

I was thinking, in the lead up to that intro, it is going to be a really mean, really terrible intro, and I'm surprised you've actually said something nice this week, so thank you. But the Scots are doing great in the Olympics. We actually are. We get Chris Hoy, we've got Andy Murray. And I was impressed that Andy Murray sung the national anthem at Wimbledon. I'm surprised he knew it. I was genuinely, I didn't

2:18.4

think he would know it.

2:19.5

So, yeah, hats off to him singing about an old lady that he doesn't really care about. So well, well, I actually went to see some of the tennis in the Olympics. It was rather splendid. I was on centre court, but in the cheap seats, you'll be pleased to know, yeah i did notice he tweeted

2:33.5

you did tweet a photo of it during the week i saw that

2:36.0

and him half of the photo was just the roof. Yeah. Yeah. And not only that, I was sloping down the way, so it was like cutting off even more of your view as it went down. Although what was quite good, the roof was quite shiny, so I could actually see the bits I was missing reflected off the roof. Just put a giant mirror up there for you, yeah? Yeah, exactly. But it has been, actually, and every single day now so far, it's just been, we've been getting better and better. So, I mean, I'm not usually not, you know, like... Gold! Yeah, well done. Well done, Team GBE. Not that any of you are ever going to listen to this, but...

3:10.0

Well, Andy Murray is into his video games, apparently.

3:12.3

He is into his video games, but you know what?

3:14.6

You know what I'm going to do?

3:15.4

When this podcast comes out, I am going to tweet a link at him.

3:18.7
