To tackle the main topic of geocaching, we bring in two old friends of the show – Tony and Brandon. Matt and Bryan are missing in action, but we still manage to have a great trip around the pool table. Also, we have a good discussion of EA’s expansion of Project Ten Dollar and Nintendo’s new focus on competing with Apple.

TD Newscast (all sources are links):
- Jonathan and Nintendo have something else in common. We both agree that Apple is the “enemy of the future” (via Edge Online).
- EA’s “Project Ten Dollar” gets a bit more vicious. (via Kotaku).
Main Topic: Geocaching:
- What is Geocaching?
- Why does it appeal to us (most of us) personally?
- Any fun memories?
- It is growing in popularity, but does it have potential to become mainstream?
- Do the proliferation of smart devices mean that the “art” has to evolve?
