With an extremely heavy heart, I must announce that Dr. Noh / Joe Noh is no longer a staff member of Padinga.com. The split is not one of anger and he was not fired or asked to quit. He resigned on his own volition. Dr. Noh decided that he would rather maintain a normal friendship with the Padinga crew rather than be co-workers as he felt that it was in the best interest of Padinga and his friendships with our staff. He joined Padinga, largely, to maintain our friendship with me after I moved to LA. Now that he has games and systems that can play online with me, he feels that there are better means to maintain our friendship.
Dr. Noh has been a good friend of mine since he spotted me on a bus at KU with a “Friends don’t let friends play Xbox shirt” with Bill Gates in a no smoking sign that Q and I had made the day before. He said that the shirt was “awesome,” to which my friend Jack Burt0n replied, “you must not have played Halo.” “I have. It’s dumb,” he said. This was in 2002, ten freaking years ago. He is one of my best friends, and I am incredibly sad that we are losing him, but also happy that our friendship is his priority. We will still be found play Battlefield 3 and StarCraft 2 on a nightly basis.
Eric Robbins will be our newest weekly addition to The Game Show. I say addition because no one can replace Dr. Noh, but Eric is the absolute best choice and will help Q and I usher in a new era for The Game Show. Eric brings an immense gaming knowledge, and will helps us make The Game Show better than it ever has been with each episode. This has always been the goal, and we must continue on!
Go to around 23 minutes of this show for a retrospective, including Dr. Noh being our first listener call in long before he was a host!
