  Cool to get some insight into your past and career. You've lead a pretty awesome life. I sent you a Live friend request, so hit me up if you ever need help ridding the world of Locust scum.

  Great two-way interview. LS:)

  Fantastic two-way interview, Tina.  I wasn’t sure who was interviewing who when it started, but I love the way it went.
  
  There are a thousand things I’d love to say in comment, but my post would stretch too long.  I can only imagine how cool it would have been for you to work for Nintendo, but then again, we’d never see you on camera and that would be a huge disappointment.
  
  The "Xbox back" music video was spactacular.  Pitty the Seattle weather kept you from going to Laura's to participate in filming.  You were the only thing missing from that music video...besides your beautiful voice.
  
  I remember the Robin Williams interview at E302.  You were bashing Wil Wheaton and Travis pinched your butt at the end – classic.  G4 was at its best then.  I loved Icons and always watched for your name in the credits.  I have a few of the episodes you wrote.  I really want to see the episode of “Pulse” you co-anchored with Patrick Clark, but it’s impossible to find.
  
  I suspect that by the time I go to add you to my friends list, your friends list will be full.  I watched this much too late.  If it ever clears up…I’ll try again…or send me a friend request.  "Arztek" is always a gentleman on Xbox live.
  
  Again, great interview, Tina.  This sure brought back a lot of pleasant memories.  I cannot emphasize enough how pleasant it is to see you hosting segments on a daily basis instead of a weekly episode like G4.  Be certain to put this up on your Blog!

  Wow!  You did watch.  Yep, that's exactly how that episode ended.  Wil was one of my favorite people to work with.  He's such a passionate guy.  I had a lot of fun doing the podcast with Larry.  Hopefully he will have me back and we can dish more.

  I remember that, the Travis pinch. I bet he still hasn't washed his hand... *sigh*.

  Be honest...would you, Ted?  hehe.  Come to think of it, it doesn't matter since you were lucky enough to meet her in person.
  
  Better than the pinch was Tina's responce:
  
  "Um, okay.  Travis just pinched my *.  Okay, that's on film!  I have two words for you...(she made two cash register noises)."
  
  Then Scot remarked that he was glad he wasn't standing beside Travis.  Travis started chasing him with the pinching hand.  LOL
  
  Now those were some of the best times on G4.  *sighs*

  That was a great interview. It clearly shows why you kick *, T-Dub (and why I became a viewer of G4TV.com). You are absolutely right about Sony and that Nintendo deserves the respect they need, for what they have been doing for years (and as I mentioned before in a previous post, the Wii is not about graphics...but gameplay).

  Also, thank you for sharing your gamertag. I tried to send you a friend request, but I guess it's full (no surprise =). I hope to play (at least) one game with ya, sometime soon (Gears, Halo 2, Halo 3...whatever).

  What an awesome career-history!  And now that you're with 10/Microsoft...I'd have to say that things appear to be going pretty damn good=)

  Keep up the great work.

  Awesome interview.  You two really should do shows together more often =)

  Tina, I was amazed to hear how much experience you have at your age!  (I figured saying I was "surprised how young you are" wouldn't exactly be as flattering).  I actually figured you for about my age (perhaps just my unfailing optimisim) until you started talking about your work history.  Anyway, sounds like you've had an awesome career so far. 

  I added you on Live, as probably 10,000 others did.  But I figured you might give preferential treatment to other MS employees

  I concur, something fun, something different! It was good to see how Larry brings his shows together and to learn more about Tina's extensive background in gaming, writing, technology, etc. All good stuff!

  I watched to, Tina. Maybe not that far back. I didn't get G4 until after that. My first show was the first end of year recap show. I was like," Who is this Scot Rubin and Tina Wood". I had never heard of you guys before. I haven't forgotten about Laura either. I hope to hear you on All games Interactive with Scot someday as well as more with Major.

  Very insitfull episode.
  
  I cryed on the memories of G4TV.com and what G4 use to be. One of the reasons that influence me when I was older to make games was the possibility to create and upcomming game a get to be on G4TV.com and interviewd and talk to the gamer community and it would be so wonderfull....and then it got cancled and I was like "crap". Actualy I said alot more hard words out loud. The network was amazing, but now its Spike TV Lite and is like ew.
  
  Infact, at its peak, I thought G4 would be god if they imported all those TV shows in Korea on those Proffesional Gamers and aired them in the US. Instead we got Kevin Parara....and its just wrong.
  
  Anyway, awsome episode. Learned about Podcasting and Tina Wood. Nice. :3
