The Techland Show: Bull Durham Edition

In which we talk about the next Batman movie, and Peter loses his thing over Windows Phone 7, and Lev looks like an idiot playing Project Natal. They need to release a non-code name for that thing. A No-Prize to the commenter who can think of a better name for it.
