Guard yourselves opo-opos, this episode is dangerous! Andrey tells an amusing annecdote taken straight from the IRL’s, Jared is tired and full of rage, Michelle won a cross-continet chocobo race! Also Michelle brought in a super special guest who joined us in our discussion of such wonderful topics as the Soliloquy and Everwatch linkshells and the introduction of Jobs. We touch lightly on 2.0, but we’ll save all the juicy bits for later shows.

Mason alert, Mason alert! Man your battle stations! Andrey’s feelings are destroyed when Michelle and Jared display their ire at having a certain unmentionable return. They delve deep into the Depths of the Darkhold, and shortly after Zolku yells at peoples! The folks drop some names and then talk about name dropping and how they would never do it… to offend anyone. Andrey admits that he can do things for fun, this shocks Jared and Michelle. Michelle makes kissy noises at some point, so watch out opo-opos, try not to get too excited!

It’s that time of month again! (/Sigh) The usual crew is back again, Jared survived the wilds of Virginia and made it safely back to Florida! Raids were brand new at the time and they gab a lot about them because that’s what we do in FFXIV. Jared tell Andrey what Balto is… again. There are many many bleeps! ( Poor Michelle ). And Michelle talks about sneaking about! Andrey blurs the line between his character and himself!

Also they talk about RP related things at some point during the show.

Only two months late- it’s the ‘semi’-live show! What?! People from the internets meeting IRLs?! What madness is this! Experience the return to glory as Jared (Zolku Elku), Andrey (Mason/Oskar) and Michelle (Xenedra Ambreaus) shake off the cobwebs and get back into full gear! ( or at least attempt to ) Enjoy bi-monthly RP and a discussion on choosing to do something In-character because you think it would be fun versus because it makes sense for your character to do.

This week Jared (Zolku Elku), Andrey (Mason/Oskar), Michelle (Xenedra Ambreaus) are joined by Adrianna (Deirdre Ta’ea) and sit around and talk! *gasp* What do these four seemingly ordinary humans talk about? Of course I’ll tell you, but I’d like to delay this information till the very end, make you WAIT for it. How was your day Opo-opo? Good I hope? Mine was great thanks for asking. What’s your favorite colour? Fluff fluff fluff…  TOPICS: MMO vs RL RP, Email!, plumbing in Eorzea, OOC fighting and IC fighting, amnesia! -also- How not to suck at RP: Power-hungry and weak-willed. Fortunately//Unfortunately and Jared Texts. Andrey cries at the end.

Yes, at this point this episode is very nearly ancient history, but one must always remember to learn from the lessons of the past! In this case, the lesson is don’t screw with Ogres; a very potent lesson now that we’ll all be taking on a certain ogre in a certain raid. Join Jared (Zolku Elku), Andrey (Mason/Oskar), Michelle (Xenedra Ambreaus) along with their return guest Aaron (Aldrisi) as they continue they’re ever-long chat on RP in FFXIV.

This week (which is actually several weeks ago due to migrating to our new radio site) Jared (Zolku Elku), Andrey (Mason/Oskar), Michelle (Xenedra Ambreaus) are joined by Alexandria (Alothia Starkwood), a co-host on the Dodo Stampede. She, along with the hosts get into yet another can of worms. What is it this time? Rich characters, kittens, and news. Andrey briefly mentions Mason doing sex-changes, Michelle cringes on cue. The podcast unleashes Civil War! If this was timely, you’d gasp, but chances are if you’re an avid podcaster you’re like “Pffft old news, I voted for <besthostever> already!” Oh and the rest of this summary will be devoted to an insane amount of PLUGS this episode:

This week Jared (Zolku Elku), Andrey (Mason/Oskar), Michelle (Xenedra) are joined by Aaron (Aldrisi Shirantas) and Edward (Verence Meillune). Aaron asks newbie questions and Edward dispenses sage wisdom. They discuss situations which make you deviate from your character, and go based on your pure hatred OOC’ly. Just kidding… sort of. Andrey pulls back the curtain to reveal some of the texts he gets on a daily basis from Jared, in a new segment “Jered Texts.”

This week Jared (Zolku Elku), Andrey (Mason/Oskar), Michelle (Xenedra) and their guest JARED’S GIRLFRIEND, Samantha (Aora Maora) talk about many-a-thing. On the top of the show, Andrey provides a quick summary for those in a rush to get their RP news/topics fix. We understand how the show can be addicting and wish to accommodate you sick Opo-Opos as quickly as possible. Note that the summary had topics we never got to… hmmm, can they possibly be on the NEXT episode? Stay tuned.

The summary is over now.

Good gracious we’re just rolling out the shows from the mill aren’t we? Well in this weeks’ fun-filled episode we get in close and tell you how you have to live your lives in Eorzea, or not. We have a special moment with Dr. Jared the half robot half lalafell hybrid. Also we talk about death… yet again.

Join Jared (Zolku Elku), Andrey (Mason/Oskar) and Michelle (Xenedra) as they discuss drinking while doing class quests then using the aether to teleport themselves away from the destruction, and not dealing with any consequences because “they had one too many.” No wait… those are topics… discussed separately?

Love, Andrey

Jared (Zolku Elku), Andrey (Mason/Osakar) and Michelle (Xenedra) are joined by Robert (Rhomagus Asclepiot) to discuss RP with Non-RPers, a particular inconstancy in the lore, RP that suddenly stops and other topics.

Jared (Zolku Elku), Andrey (Mason/Osakar) and Michelle (Xenedra) and their guest Laura (Alone Rhys) discuss an XIV glitch, imaginary RP, and player run leves.

The episode wraps up with Q&A from the guest! HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Join Andrey (Mason/Osakar) and Michelle (Xenedra) as we notice too late that we have fallen into the same terrible trap that Square Enix started by having a “X-2.” Hopefully our sequel will be more interesting. We are once again joined by Matt (since this was a two parter), while poor Jared is lost to the abyss without internet. Topics this time include, as promised, fighting in RP, some long over-due email/forum responses and the RP newspaper, the Tonberry’s Lantern. Drunkisode, GO!

Join Jared (Zoklu Elku), Andrey (Mason) and Michelle (Xenedra) for the ninth episode of Aetheryte Radio’s Role Play show: Remotely Plausible.

Jared (Zoklu Elku), Andrey (Mason) and Michelle (Xenedra) are joined by Nel. They discuss the upcoming changes to FFXIV and their effects on Role-Players. Andrey complains about game/interface lag which then turns out to be cause by his crappy computer. The hosts open their email box and read through all the replies from the past couple of weeks.

Jared (Zoklu Elku) returns to reign in Andrey (Mason) and Michelle (Xenedra)! Joining them this week is Jessica (Oria) and Edward (Verence). We discuss mixed races, linkpearls, and revisit the topic of death in RP. We also complain about no complaints (critisism).

We also bring up role play etiquette from both the perspective of the role player and the that of the innocent (or perhaps not so innocent) “civilian” MMO player.

In episode four we talk about our first weeks of roleplay and the trials there-in. We also invite 3 guests aboard: a non-role player who plays XIV, a role player who doesn’t play XIV and a non-MMO player who’s interested in XIV, to bombard us with questions that perhaps the rest of the general populace is interested in as well! Get ready for this organized clusterf- ok, Fusion, I won’t curse…

Join Andrey (Mason), Jared (Zolku Elku), and Michelle (Xenedra) for the very first episode of Aetheryte Radio’s Role Play show: Remotely Plausible.

To open up “RP” we thought it would be appropriate to introduce a few aspects of what role play is, as well as some commonly used jargon for those who may not be familiar with it. We also briefly address how one might go about creating a character to role play.
