And there was much rejoicing.
Though 1UP has now been
gutted and sold to the highest bidder and EGM has been axed, several ex-Ziff Davis employees have already begun to rise above in the form of the Rebel FM podcast. In the spirit of 1UP FM, Nick Suttner, Matt Chandronait, Anthony Gallegos, Philip Kollar, Jade Kraus, and Ryan O’Donnell have brought us a brand new audio production. Though they experienced some technical issues which resulted in some sketchy audio quality, the Rebel FM crew gets right down to doing what they’ve always done: talk about video games. But not before they shared a bit about what went down at 1UP this past Tuesday. They’ve also said that
the Backlog segment which 1UP FM listeners had come to love will find a new home in Rebel FM, albeit probably under a different name. I was very glad to hear this news.
Rebel FM is currently headquartered at Anthony Gallegos’ old blog Eat Sleep Game. If the site is still down when you’re reading this, you can grab Episode 1 of the podcast via Bittorrent.
I would also like to mention that torrents have been made for collections of several 1UP podcasts including 1UP FM, GFW Radio and 1UP Yours. Get your P2P on.

Anthony, I know you really dig the DS and play it alot, me too!! Well I have been checking out and trying quite a few cases for the game system and found that the pink Hanna Montana case is the best one out there!! I know, I know but it has a rubber lining and the DS fits really snug in it and it feels the best of all the others I have tested. I just put some stickers on it or if you wanted you could paint it so as not to be representing Hanna Montana. I really don’t care but this case is the shit! In my opinion that is. Thanks and I still think your podcast is the best one going! The chemistry you guys have is spot on and a blast to listen to!! Take care!

You probably want to hit up http://eat-sleep-game.com, that’s Rebel FM’s site. I was just relaying the news of their project(s) here. This site has nothing to do with them. Glad you found us, though
