Rise of the Triad Unused Video Capture Sessions Joe Siegler 2014-12-21 | This third in the series of ROTT Video capture sessions shows characters that were captured, and actually put into the game, but ultimately cut. They were generally cut for memory purposes. Back in the days of DOS, you couldn't have unlimited things, and to help with memory overhead, we cut all the alternate characters.This video shows three actors, the late William Scarboro, Marianna Vayntrub, & Ann Grauerholz being captured for the game.NOTE: There is no audio, this video is mute. There was no speaking on the VHS original, I just muted it so you weren't listing to 30 minutes of "hiss". :)Video (c) Apogee Software, LLC

Doomsday Machine Audio Commentary Joe Siegler 2024-06-10 | This is my own audio commentary for the Doomsday Machine episode of the original Star Trek series. I'm in the middle of doing a marathon where I'm watching each episode, one per day. As Doomsday Machine is my all time favorite episode, I wanted to do something special here. There's no video here, it's just audio of me talking while the episode is on - some thoughts as I watched it. As there is no actual video here (just two still pictures), the max resolution here is 480p to keep the size of the video down when I uploaded it. :)00:00 - Intro01:09 - Episode Countdown01:23 - Episode Start
Ride em Cowboy Level Commentary POC Joe Siegler 2023-09-30 | This is a short proof of concept video for something I've wanted to do for ages now. It's level commentary for my own "Rise of the Triad" level "Ride 'em Cowboy". It's only a minute of game play. I just wanted to try it out to see if it would work well at all, or if there was any interest in it. It's a total low budget production here. The game play comes from an Xbox Series X game session, the audio was recorded myself using the built in microphone on my iMac, and the whole thing was cobbled together using Apple's iMovie app. Total low budget stuff here, but it kinda works. Heck, I caught myself saying "period" at the end of one of the sentences - I'm so used to voice dictation on my iPhone! :)If there's enough interest, I'll do more of these for my own levels in ROTT.

NJN Signoff - 1980s Joe Siegler 2019-04-15 | This was the end of day signoff for NJN back in the Camden/Philly area in the 80's. No idea what the date is beyond it was in the 80's.

This specific recording was from WNJS - Channel 23 in Camden.

Sylvester McCoy First Ever USA Convention - Atlanta GA Mar 7, 1987 Joe Siegler 2018-08-23 | This is video of Sylvester McCoy making his first ever USA appearance at a convention, not long after being cast. Was in Atlanta, GA, and he appeared with John Nathan-Turner (who was making his 8,503rd convention appearance).

Patrick Troughton Final Convention Appearance - Mar 27, 1987 (full) Joe Siegler 2018-08-23 | This is the full Q&A session with Patrick Troughton from his final public appearance the day before his death. This was on March 27, 1987 in Columbus, GA at the Magnum Opus Con II. Found this as part of a project where I was dumping everything on my 30 or so remaining VHS tapes from the 80's to my computer, and then I was gonna get rid of the lot. When I saw what this one was, I thought "that's gotta be late in his life", then I checked the timestamped date and went HOLY CRAP! I looked on Youtube and noticed it didn't seem to be on Youtube at all (in full), so up it went.The saddest part is he said "See you tomorrow" as he as coming off stage.Edit: I did not shoot this video - I make no claim that it was me that did this. I just found it on a 30 year old VHS tape I still had in 2018. Unlike some people who find lost Doctor Who stuff, I'm quite eager to share it with the public. ;)
Plants vs Zombies: Survival Mode (Pool - Hard) Lets Play Joe Siegler 2018-03-18 | I have a son with Autism who likes when I play certain games. One of them is Plants vs Zombies (the original one). In specific, he likes when I play a Survival mode called "Pool (Hard)". As I've played it a ton of times over the years, I've gotten pretty good at it and developed a strategy for beating the game pretty easily.Now given the zombies the game gives you after the first round are random, you're at the mercy of what you get from a random draw, but like 90% of the game's random draws are such that my defense strategy will cover everything unless you do something really dumb or you get something too early (like a Zamboni on the second round, which is a strategic problem).I can practically do this in my sleep, so I know this strategy works really well. Also, more often than not, I end the game with 9,990 (maxed out) money as well as 100% full defenses in place at the end of the game.Anyway, here's an entire game from front to back that I captured on my Xbox One with multiple 5 min segments of "Record that" spliced together. I made this for my son to watch on his iPad, since he loves the game so much, but I thought I'd throw out there to the world too.
Echo on an Amazon Echo with the Amazon Echo Connect Joe Siegler 2017-12-18 | I now have an Amazon Echo Connect. This is a device that lets you make and receive regular phone calls from your Echo device. Works pretty well.In testing it I decided to call myself to make sure it was working.I noticed however, the Echo device has a really weird echo sound (ha) if you call a phone that's too close to the echo itself. Check this video out. After a time, the echo effect started to sound like something from a Pink Floyd album.Also, the vibrations from the call made my cel fall over!

Rusty Greer Low T Center Radio Commercial Joe Siegler 2015-09-08 | This is the 2015 commercial for the Low T Center that plays on Texas Rangers radio broadcasts at least 15-20 times a game minimum. If you listen on DFW radio broadcasts, you can't help but hear this thing a bazillion times a game. It's guaranteed during a pitching change. DO YOU KNOW YOUR NUMBERS?
Rise of the Triad: This Causes Error Too Joe Siegler 2014-12-20 | This is a capture from the Rise of the Triad level, "This Causes Error Too". It came from the reject pack, and was the only level in that pack not originally created for Rise of the Triad: Dark War. It, like its original counterpart "This Causes An Error" was intended to crash the game. We thought the "I'm Free" graphic was silly, and we needed a way to show it in the game. This sequel level was done by me, and was basically you shooting a godball at about 150 characters in the game - you can take them all out with a single shot, which I loved at the time. I never saw a video for this level (saw several for the original), so I went and grabbed one as part of my ROTT stuff for the 20th Anniversary.
Commander Keen Episode 6 Death Animation Joe Siegler 2014-12-15 | This video was published on Dec 15, 2014, the 23rd Birthday of Commander Keen: Goodbye Galaxy. Technically this is Episode 6, which isn't officially part of the Keen Galaxy trilogy, but what the hey.. :)This was the really hilarious Commander Keen Episode 6 Death Animation. Steve Quarrella (Low Guard in Rise of the Triad) and I used to spend a stupid amount of time at this point in this level trying to get the maximum number of bounces in Keen's death. Anyone else waste a bunch of time here?

McCoy and Aldred were always a blast at these short of things.
