Episode 17!!!

Episode 17 is finally here! We have a bunch of listener e-mails to read and questions to answer. Then we talk about what fish are available in July. And, we stay in sync the whole time!! What a concept! Thanks for listening and keep harvesting.

No Episode This Week

As you've probably noticed, there isn't an episode posted for this week. We tried to do one on Saturday night, but it didn't really work out. Maybe we'll post it eventually, but unless you guys want to hear Gemini Ace rapping, it's best left in the vault. We'll be back next week with more.

Also, send us your topic ideas!

Marcelo's Contest

I was wondering if you could announce my FC and other info because I don't mean to brag, but I have about 14,000,000 bells saved up on AC:WW and I wanted to know if someone who has artistic talent wanted to make me an awesome pattern, and the winner receives a gold rose and 1,000,000 bells! two runner ups will get a gold rose and 50,000 bells each! thanks, and I hope you guys continue doing a great job on Animal Crossing Friends (which, by the way, if you can announce it there too, that'd be great!)!


Thanks,
Marcelo

As you can see, one of our faithful listeners has offered up quite a cash prize to the winner of his contest. To enter, just send us an e-mail at animalcrossingfriends@gmail.com and we will hook you up with Marcel.

Also, I know there are some problems with episode 16. If you guys want, I can try to re-edit it so it syncs up.

Hopefully.

If you guys are okay with it like it is or want me to post the unedited version, please let me know. I hate to put it out there if there's not a lot of interest in it.

That's all for now.
Thanks,
Gemini Ace

Animal Crossing Friends Episode 16

This week's show is brought to you by Skype. Phoenix and Gemini Ace are linked via Skype to bring you a look into the wifi connection. We tell you how to get connected and why. We end the show with Only Me by K.K. Slider. Thanks for listening and keep harvesting!

Pet Shop Boys + K.K. Slider = Cool

UK Dance guys Pet Shop Boys apparently have a great appreciation for Animal Crossing's musical K-9 K.K. Slider. See, one of our fine readers recently noticed a bit of similarity in a song sung by the Boys and one performed on Saturday night by K.K. Slider. In his online blog, mrdiscopop posts segments comparing the two, which honestly do sound somewhat similar. If the band's name is unfamiliar, you've probably heard their hit West End Girls.
