Excerpt: 1UP Shows and Podcasts is a collection of podcasts that are hosted by 1UP.com dealing with various aspects of gaming. Most of the shows, like 4 Guys 1UP, are about games and general gaming culture. Others are more specific, such as The Sports Game Guy's Sports Anomaly, which focuses on sports games.

    “What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.”
