The Little Big Podcast is a video podcast run by two chaps called Daniel and Austin. Based in the U.S, their podcast is a fortnightly show focussing on the weirdest, funniest and best LittleBigPlanet community levels, plus anything and everything relating to the game.
Inspired by the create-mode of LittleBigPlanet, their first show came out around a week after the game, so they’ve been busy right from the start producing what has now become a top-notch, and often hilarious show. Daniel says:
We grew up being Lego fans, so this [LittleBigPlanet] was a dream come true. To be able to create almost anything and share it with the world was a revolution that we had to be part of. We are big Burnout Paradise fans, and the guys over at Criterion Games started a great show. Mm had not started a show at the time of release, so we thought we could take a shot at it.
Our viewers can contact us and tell us what they want to see on the show. Then we have a behind-the-scenes show where our viewers can see outtakes, and random things that are cool, but have nothing to do with our shows. All of our shows are also on the iTunes Store.
Daniel and Austin have truly managed to carve a little place in the LittleBigPlanet community. They keep themselves busy with the LittleBigPodcast, but also run two other shows (one called the Viewer Controlled Podcast).
The most recent full length show of the LittleBigPodcast (episode 10) is almost an hour long, and focusses on some of the very best in community levels (some which you simply *have* to play). The end of the show features a very interesting dissection of the original GDC 2007 trailer. Daniel and Austin point out that in the original trailer, LittleBigPlanet appears to have five plains of 3d (as opposed to the current three). Sackboy characters also have the ability to stand on each others shoulders - another feature which didn’t make it in to the final build. Along with other observations about the original LBP trailer, this section of the show is particularly insightful.
Here is episode 10 in it’s entirety:
We have to admit right now that we’re big fans of the LittleBigPodcast. Keep up the good work guys and we look forward to the next episode!
You can subscribe to the show right now via iTunes and RSS, or watch it online on their Blip TV Channel. We recommend subscribing via iTunes as it’s a bit faster than streaming from blip.tv, depending on where you are in the world…
