Welcome to the new Lazlow.com
Posted by lazlow | Filed under Technology, Uncategorized
The new version of the site is up and running. It has, after all, been 3 years since I stopped doing the Technofile. I do miss it, though working on video games is a lot more challenging and rewarding than doing a syndicated radio show.
What does frustrate me is the current state of technology journalism. It’s turned into a bunch of elitist whiners who throw bloggy tantrums over the MOST IRRELEVANT THINGS EVER. Take, for instance, the rants of a few tech journalists against the Ipad as somehow being draconian and the Iphone to be horribly limited and betraying our human civil rights. If you went back in a time machine to 1988 and showed someone and Iphone and whined about how horrible it was, they would beat you with a tire iron for being a self absorbed unappreciative dick. THIS is what’s wrong with your life? Really? You can’t make copies of movies you bought in Itunes? Entire continents don’t have indoor plumbing, swim in sewage, and die from a mosquito bite and you in your hipster geek glasses and Prius are whining about your apps? Good going self absorbed prick.
Wow. I think i just did a Technofile there.
The new site has comments. It’s going to be available until people begin acting like children. Be nice. Don’t call names. If you disagree with someone, don’t be mean. Don’t post something you wouldn’t say to someone’s face.
Thanks for stopping by.

Can I get a free tshirt?
May 4, 2010 at 11:34 am
The new site looks great Lazlow. When are you guys starting up the Lazlow show again? I realize theres that whole “Rockstar Games” gig where you make “money” and all that, but what about a free podcast that probably won’t earn you anything?
I think the choice is obvious.
Big Fan of the show!
May 4, 2010 at 12:37 pm
Wow nice new site Laz! Hopefully comments will reduce the mad amounts of spam you probably get from creepy stalker fans. Also, thank you for not selling out and dropping ads all over the new site (well, other than the giant t-shirt plug at the top, but that’s fine).
Any word at all on episode 44/the whole Sirius overlord absurdity? Here’s hoping for the best!
May 4, 2010 at 2:50 pm
Nice redesign Lazlow.
That top bit is really err, funky, too.
I don’t suppose there’s any news on the last episode you did.
Such as, if it actually happened. Man living in a different continent really makes it hard to keep up with your awesome show.
Anyway, Nice site, keep up the great work with the show, and your involvement in game production.
Props to Reed and Big Wayne for their involvement with the show too if they see this.

May 4, 2010 at 3:21 pm

Kepp up the fuckin; awesome work man!

Counting down the days until May 21st!

New layout is great. Finally a fresh look.
Well, I’ve been playng TBoGT recently, and I must say: you did awesome job on Integrity (Georgie-Boy is the coolest intern ever ) !
Give your (at least 2 I know about) fans a new show, crew!
From Poland with love, Huan Mari.
May 4, 2010 at 3:44 pm
you made a mistake here ” If you went back in a time machine to 1988 and showed someone and Iphone” i think you meant ”an Iphone”. mistakes like these are going to end the world. whats next? starting sentences without capitalization?
love the show
May 4, 2010 at 4:28 pm
CRICKEY! love the new site laz.

Sexy new design. I like the retro-tastic style to it.
Looking forward to hearing a new Lazlow Show though.
As for iPads.. being in Ireland I’ve been forced (by societal peer pressure in Starbucks) to import one from America. Sure, it’s a giant iPod touch. But damn, it’s an impressive iPod.
May 4, 2010 at 5:38 pm
Hey laz greetings from germany.
I love the new design its awesome man.
Keep on doing your good work and i know your hear this probably
100 times a day but please, keep on doin the show
i dont care how long you need for it , as long as you do it!
ps: whats about waynes book?
May 4, 2010 at 6:02 pm
People don’t whine because products like the iPhone aren’t good enough, it’s because it took actual work to make it worse. Less time and money would be spent, and it would be better.
May 4, 2010 at 8:35 pm
like the website, has the look of your t-shirt, also any word on ep44 and wayne’s book?
May 4, 2010 at 11:54 pm
Sweet new website Laz!!!!
May 5, 2010 at 2:42 am
Loving the new site, Laz. It’s really got a pretty cool vibe to it and it’s a bit easier to explore, not to mention easier on the eyes as well. Pretty sleek.
And I love the little “rant” you went on about these technological geeks who bitch and moan about all of this stupid bullshit when 20 years ago most people couldn’t have even imagined having their entire music collection in their front pocket on one small device with a touch screen that looks like it came out of Star Trek. Spot on.
I’m really looking forward to Red Dead Redemption. I’m also looking forward to the next Grand Theft Auto and of course the next episode of The Lazlow Show, whenever those will be.
Keep up the great work man. And yeah, tell Wayne we want a chapter from his book on the next episode like he promised last year.
May 5, 2010 at 2:54 am
Great redesign! Good to see you’re getting the site back on track.
Here’s hoping for some new shows when things settle down. You have quite a few fans here in The Netherlands as well…
May 5, 2010 at 5:04 am
Woot for Technofile rant! Its so true though dude, some people can’t just appreciate what they have. I’m loving the new site layout, can’t wait for a new show
May 5, 2010 at 9:20 am
UK here!
Wow, really liking the new site man. Good to hear from you again also!
And yes, wholeheartedly agree with you on that topic. The technofile was pretty awesome, had the whole collection on my computer til the hard drive melted.
In any case, you know wht Im gonna ask next… ep44 and what can only be described as “The book”, hope they arent too far away
Oh and thank you & R* for finally realeasing episodes from liberty city on PC.
Take care bud
May 5, 2010 at 10:25 am
The new website is awesome!
Hopefully there will be a show soon?
May 5, 2010 at 10:37 am
Laz, Laz, Laz…you’ve got it all wrong! The iPad is for those Prius driving, self absorbed, dumbasses!
Also, can’t wait for a new show to play on my iPod Touch *hangs head in shame*
….but but but, I drive a Sentra!
May 5, 2010 at 11:39 am
Hey Laz
Digging the new site, a lot more organised n shit yo
Agree with you 100% on your technology rant. A friend of mine said I was a dick because I blew the rest of my money (unemployed now) on beer, rather than upgrade my shitty outdated phone. My phone doesn’t have a camera, nor can it play music files, it’s literally just that: a phone. Which is fine by me, I can still order pizza and call sex lines, so who the fuck cares!?
I agree with your policy about not name calling, but does that go for celebrities too? Because I saw a Lady GaGa video a few minutes ago, and if she makes one more shitty auto-tuned video where she’s dressed like a robot and talking about her cavern cunt, I’m gonna lose my fucking mind. God I’d love to shit in her mouth.
Anyway, tell Wayne to hurry up with that book!
Peace
May 5, 2010 at 1:07 pm
Yo Laz
Nice to see some action happening on the site after so long cause without the show, working in the studio and traveling around the city get’s fucking boring! There are no good talk shows in England, it’s just full of whiny fucks loving Kanye West’s gun in mouth club dance turd milkshake!
Loving GTA with Georgie Boy
Hear you soon
EZ
May 5, 2010 at 2:32 pm
Hey Lazlow
The sites looking sweet, digging the retro vibe, so when are you going to post a passage from wayne’s book? love the show, looking forward to the next one.
Loving Episodes from Liberty City and i’ve got RDR pre-ordered, cant wait.
May 5, 2010 at 3:19 pm
How I wish Reed actually had a podcast with that name.
May 5, 2010 at 5:09 pm
Nice new site man, lookin forward to the next show and Red Dead. Keep up the great work sir!
May 5, 2010 at 6:03 pm
nice re-design
btw who’s the punk chick with her tatty bojangles out in the store section?
May 5, 2010 at 11:38 pm
Hey man, flabbergasted by the new website. It’s much brighter than the white setup you had before.
Speaking of websites, I think we’re missing a Lazlow show. Being in Aus, couldn’t tune in when it was on, but it happened and it’s not available yet! I’ll be waiting.
Good to hear you enjoy making games though.
May 6, 2010 at 12:21 am
Nice to see an RSS feed. Thanks! Looking forward to hearing the next show, whenever that is.
May 6, 2010 at 6:26 am
Hey Laz. Found Reed’s podcast, it’s at
http://tarheelbredtarheeldead.podbean.com/
also funky new website
May 6, 2010 at 7:28 am
Lol, and will you actually read these comments? Suggestion: make Reed do it
May 6, 2010 at 8:34 am
Thanks for the link Hallgarth. The link has been updated in the footer.
May 6, 2010 at 10:40 am
Wow, Reed’s podcast is about sports? I thought it’d be more about interior design and hairstyles. :S
May 6, 2010 at 11:07 am
Lol, I guess he knows how to cover it up
May 6, 2010 at 11:09 am
by the way, ryan: your name is linked to the facebook home. unless you have invented this social networking site (you genius
), this is pretty irritating. Why don’t you link it to your specific profile?
May 6, 2010 at 12:23 pm
Hey Laz.
New look is cool. Red Dead is my next game. blah blah.
Anyways, When are you guys gonna do a new show? Or just give up and start
doing a podcast?
Seriously though, keep up the good work.
May 6, 2010 at 1:30 pm
Raph: My site’s not up and running yet, still in design stages. Just thought I’d throw up my Facebook in case anybody here is part of the Lazlow Show group.
May 6, 2010 at 2:05 pm
Red Dead Redemption looks radical.
Looking forward to the next show.
Oh and nice redesign, it looks very bloggy.
@Radman
some chick from like, Norway or something if I remember correctly. She’s a model and sent Lazlow some pictures to use on the store page.
May 6, 2010 at 2:16 pm
The site looks great.
On pay day I’ll be picking up RDR and (maybe) a Lazlow t-shirt.
Please get back to doing the show. I’ll even pay for it and download that piece of shit iTunes if I have to.
May 6, 2010 at 5:44 pm
Holy shit! Comment section!!!!
The witches come into your room…. Drown them they work for Dr. Doom
May 6, 2010 at 5:46 pm
Why not add a forum?
May 7, 2010 at 1:28 am
Hi Guys. Awesome work, keep it up. Tried to grab a couple of the older lazlow show’s you have posted on your downloads section but they are to dead links. Not a huge drama, i’m just trying to track down the notorious “pickle park” story / ep.
Tell Reed to stop doing that or he will go blind.
May 7, 2010 at 5:51 am
Hey laz, cool desing! when’s the next show?
May 7, 2010 at 6:07 am
lol Ryan: you didn’t throw up your facebook, that’s my point. it’s just facebook home. so if I click on it, i will be redirected to my pinboard
May 7, 2010 at 9:28 am
Loving the new site, reminds we heaps of the t-shirt of the show.
and your little rant is so right, people do complain about something cause they think they can make it 100 times better, that’s what i liked about the technofile you rarely put thinks down when you would introduce a new product
May 7, 2010 at 10:23 am
Raph: Yeah, just re-read it. Oops xD
Fixed now
May 7, 2010 at 10:38 am
wonderful. I know lazlow really doesn’t care for the whole facebook-business but i might just add you
May 7, 2010 at 12:42 pm
cool new site.
but Im hoping for new episodes
May 7, 2010 at 3:51 pm
Excellent, we can dicuss past shows
And in 3 years discuss episode 45.
