    ANNOUNCEMENT: Jeff Cannata Teams with 5by5 for a New Show!

    Big news, here, folks!

    I am proud to announce that my brand new show on the 5by5 Network will debut LIVE tomorrow, January 8th 2014 at 11am Pacific Time!

    The new show, all about video games and tabletop games, will be called DLC, and will feature the supremely awesome Christian Spicer as my co-host.

    Best of all, because I'm teaming up with 5by5, we will be able to record and stream the show LIVE each week, which will allow us to include a healthy dose of audience interaction and discussion.  That's right, YOU will be able to live chat, send tweets, and even CALL IN to the show in real time to discuss the hottest topics, new releases, and games with us!

    This will be a whole new type of show for me - one that I've been wanting to do for a long time now.  One that relies heavily on audience participation and involvement.  I want YOU to be able to dictate a lot of what we discuss, and contribute topics, ideas, and opinions.  

    We will have special guests from games media, recurring segments, and a ton of gaming content - and, of course, you'll be able to download the show as a podcast and listen at your leisure every week - but I'm hoping the live, interactive format of the show will make for appointment listening and create a more interesting, dynamic format than I have ever been able to achieve before.

    So get excited!  The show debuts tomorrow, and I'm hoping you'll tune in live, join in the chat, and even call into the show by calling 512-518-5714 when we are recording.

    The show will be at 5by5.tv/dlc and you can also listen live on any device by going to 5by5.fm or join the IRC at 5by5.tv/live

    Hello....SPICER!

    This should be fun to listen to. I am swamped during that time on weekdays, but will gladly download the podcast. Good luck!!

    Oh.. and with Spicer as cohost, as if the sexual tension btw you two wasn't enough on weekend confirmed.

    This won't effect you being on Weekend Confirmed will it?! Either way, can't wait to see it! This is the best news of the new year! (way better than finding my job was downsized anyway)

    This is fantastic. Not to get ahead of anything, but a chat with you and Andy Ihnatko at 5by5 would be interesting to hear.

    How does this differ from the show he kickstarted?
    Looking forward to watching!
