Dead Workers Party Network

Hear ye brave knights of Control Point speaketh out to the kingdom as now they laid aside their swords and hold aloft their booming microphones. Why dost thou read this and not listen to episode 95 immediately? Ye may all stand glad, knowing for the word of this merry ’sode speaks poetry into your ear. [...]

No Listener Contributions, no Surveillance, no RapidFire questions, just good clean TF2 discussion. Joining us this week is Johnny Napalm, Mr.Eagle, Hemanena and Sabrina.

Halloween is here, and so is Hemanena. That’s right, we have a female scout in the studio this week! It’s time for a sugar high, it’s time for episode 94!

This week is full of celebration! There’s the Windows 7 launch, a birthday, and we’re celebrating 90 episodes of opening the briefcase. It’s a party! Rubbarah!

Bot crotch?

It’s time that we catch up on some listener contributions.

Spencer is back! This time it’s for good. By the way, you know what Team Fortress 2 needs? Guard Dogs.

We have something pretty amazing to share with you this week! We think it’s amazing anyway.. thanks Valve!

Come on in and listen to our interview with TheOrangeDoor about the functional Sentry gun that he built out of LEGOs. Also there’s some discussion about the drama that Valve has been creating regarding cheaters. Topping off this episode is our first live call-in segment. It’s action packed I tell you!

Does the title of this episode intrigue you?

Skill-less spamming Demoman. Those new to Sniper, use Huntsman. Girls play Pyro. Backburner is for n00bs. All Scouts are kids hyped up on caffeine.

So much happened this week, Classless Update, a map contest, tons of contributions and 3 new songs! In this episode, we go OVERTIME!

Control Point listeners from all over the place came together in Huntsville, AL. It was a wonderful weekend. There were 13 people in the studio this week. The first 6 minutes was missing, so I used a rather crappy sounding backup, but it’s all there. Enjoy!

…more like Revolution of a TF2 Player!

No love for BLU?

Dear Valve, we are in the year 2009, how about instead of a console maybe you could give us a graphical user interface? Much thanks! -CP

Johnny Napalm joins us today as we discuss a big update, a very serious cosplayer and celebrate his birthday.

This is the closest we’ve gotten to being linked on the official TF2 blog. Eric is back this week, and we discuss a new game mode, debate about spoilers, and watch a few TF2 videos.

We decided to take the show in a new direction, mostly downward.

A more in depth discussion about the new Sniper and Spy unlocks.

We are recording in front of real live people this time! In the midst of the convention, community members gather around the hosts, watching, participating, and being merry.

An interview with a Spy superstar!

Well.. uh.. he’s back for this one episode at least.

Phishers, Updates, and Nivekeryas, oh my!!

We had an overflow of contributions last week, so here’s another episode full of em. Our guest this week is Johnny_Napalm!

This is our egg-cellent Easter egg-isode. We are catching up on listener contributions this week, so hold tight and keep your sunny side up… and that’s all yolks!

Achievement Farmers: Be Warned! Server admins are fighting back! We discuss a very controversial subject with special guest msleeper.

You wanna know the truth? The horrible truth? Well, here it is.

I know it sounds pretty obvious, but sometimes the obvious is obvious because it’s obvious. Discussing “Obvious Gameplay Points that People Forget” this week with guest host: Johnny Napalm!

Discussion of what to do and what NOT to do in certain scenarios that may pop up during your TF2 career. It never hurts to say “please” and “thank you” too. Guests this week are AshWilliams & Nivekeryas.

There are many ways to ruin a TF2 server, and we let you know what those are.

The Scout update gives us much to talk about!

The Scout update is so close. While we try not to speculate too much, we do share our thoughts about what is officially announced about the Scout update. Mentok joins us this week in one crazy, crazy ride.

This week, we introduce two new segments. Lots of emails and discussion about our friends over seas. A little something about the elusive Spycrab. So, have a cup o’ tea and give a listen.

Can you feel the love tonight? The peace the evening brings. The world, for once, in perfect harmony.
With all its living things. Or something like that.

Move over weak humans, TF2 bots are moving in.

Just like the title says.

Just a small town podcast, livin’ in a lonely world. Lot’s of lovin’, touchin’ and squeezin’ in this fun-filled episode.

Why not give the Scout a mirror on a stick? Sounds useful to me.

First show of 2009! We catch up on lots of emails that accumulated in our inbox during the holidays. We also discuss the aftermath of the Demoman’s nerf.

Merry Christmas from Control Point! We used the same secret sauce that made the first Christmas episode so good, only this time we used more of it. Enjoy!

We have been blessed with a new update from Valve! What do we think about the big changes to the Spy and Engineer?

What has become of the Control Point podcast? Is it’s main focus factual information or just pure entertainment? The guest this week is Nivekeryas and a secret guest seemed to just wander on in during the show.

Maybe we talked a little TOO much about L4D this week, but come on, it’s a good game, right? NivekOne joins us this week (that’s Kevin backwards).

Don’t be an assclown, listen to this episode!

We didn’t have much of an episode planned this week, so instead of an episode made up of 34 minutes and 23 seconds of cricket sound effects, we decided to call up some folks on Skype and talk about L4D. Joining us this week is Ifrit, AshWilliams and Sam Houston.

Our mailbox is bulging this week!

Bomb cart will not push self!

I don’t know, but we had better let them out!

Does the title of this episode intrigue you? Well, it should.

We have returned from Dragon*Con in Atlanta, GA. We sure did see alot of TF2 cosplay.

A week with the Heavy Unlocks. What do your hosts think about them? Chaos was busy getting his son’s foot sewn back on from a dispenser malfunction accident, so he was not able to make this podcast.

With the Heavy Unlocks just released, we discuss what is coming for the heavy and other thoughts about TF2.

Back on the TF2 train, hardcore with all your tactics, tips and tricks for the map pl_goldrush. Thanks to everyone for all the wonderful tips. Over an extra 1/2 hour of content this week! We’re monsters I tell you! What’s next!? Oh yeah.. Episode 44.

We’re trying something new to help out with the load of the mp3’s. You can either d/l it normally on the feed, or the link below is on a different server. Don’t forget to send in your tips and tricks for next week’s podcast!

We had some buttons returned that were sent for a donation, and I don’t know how to get in touch with him, so why not just name the episode after him? He’s got to listen in now, right?

I know the title sounds like we went to E3 and covered the valve interviews. Well, we didn’t. We read them online, and we’re going to comment on them! So I made a banner to match the coverage! But, here is a little bit more of what you can expect:

Well, no bagels this week folks. But plenty of Team Fortress 2 discussion and Listener contributions and contests galore! Back from PlayOnCon and Chaos is back from vacation!

Podcasting live from Play On Con in Birmingham Alabama over the 4th of July weekend. We had a blast and managed to record a CP episode right in the middle of the convention floor.

Mr. Eagle has some time to join us in this episode, “The Week After”, to discuss a creation started by he and JohnMazz. There are more people working on it now, and they’d like to get more input, so be sure to follow the link below to help them out.

HUDDA HUDDA HUDDA! Get ready for, a BBQ boys and girls! This week a new update of the Pyro class was unleashed and the boys of Control Point extiguish the rumors and add fuel to the fire on the hot topic of the Pyro Unlocks. But wait, that isn’t all.

Viewers asked for some Q&A, I guess above and beyond letting folks submit questions each week, so we took some time in the live chat room to take some questions, but that’s at the end of the show.

This week, SigmaSin joins us to explains the twisting, turning, otherwise confusing map that is CP_STEEL.

Yay! Spencer is back! Much talk on new maps played and some talk on Conan. And a bunch of CP updates as well as Valve updates!

What’s going on? Crom?! What does that mean? Well, we know that as players of TF2, you’re probably also video gamers in general, so when something new and big comes out, there’s a good chance we’ll talk about it.

Big Bad Wolf? Not really. We’ve gotten to a point where our TF2 map discussions are swiftly becoming roadkill on the highway of gaming.

Where’s Wes Wilson? I’ll tell you. Out sick! So everyone send your good thoughts his way so he can be well in time for the next edition.

Still in excruciating pain from their stomping by the guys over at Evil Avatar, the 4 hosts do there best to limp to the microphone and bring you this special edition of Control Point! They will also be attending anger management classes afterwards.

Don’t you wish it were the Holiday season all year round? Well, look no further than Snofort. We invite you to take a listen as we guide you through this wintery wonderland.

This week, the boys of Control Point take you through one of the older maps out there, Turbine. Through the vents and describing strategies, hints, tips and tricks for each of the classes on this beloved map.

The 2nd time around you get the best of the best of the best of labor! We swear! If you are planning on playing the map, you had better tune into this little gem first. Ahhh… but it doesn’t end there.

Because of some issues with the Ooberservers agreement, the mods take over this podcast.

OOBER CONTROL! With it’s new sponsor and format! We hope you enjoy this show. A bit rocky working with a new format that we all were not used to, but we believe you will learn a great deal from this episode!

And you Thought we were out of content to talk about! In this episode we discuss one of the more popular CTF custom maps, Mach 4.

Every once in awhile, we visit conventions or lan parties and do a live podcast from there. Such was the case with our visit to OmegaCon. The one thing you can almost always expect from live podcast are technical difficulties, and this one was no exception.

This episode starts off a little harsh on the audio since someone, and I’m not naming names, forgot to hit record, or possibly a Jelly Fish stumbled in and turned it off while he (again.. no names) wasn’t looking.

Badlands you gotta live it every day
Let the broken hearts stand
As the price youve gotta pay
Well keep pushin till its understood
And these badlands start treating us good… What? Not the same badlands? Oh well. On to the show.

Ok, so you came here expecting some badlands lovin. Well, we decided to love the map a few more days before sharing the love. We hope you still love us.

The Other Well. Atleast if you ask WesWilson! But hey, let’s don’t. Ask Chaos or Devilturnip! They will tell you that Granary is actually a good map!

This week the podcast is a bit leaky from the breaking of dams in Hydro, and of course Spencer missing in action. But instead of putting the podcast on hiatus, we decided to bring it to you with just the 3 remaining hosts. Click!

ABC… easy as 1,2,3…

Well… Well… Well… What do we have here?

It’s beginning to look alot, like, DUSTBOWL! That’s right! You’ve played the map, and you’ve been chewed up by sentries and uber’d heavies, now learn how to do and defeat those tactics! Plus many other new and exciting concepts!

This week we take a break from the maps discussion to join the SNAPL group during their Lan party. Listen in to see what transpired throughout the evening and early into the morning.

The map that everyone loves to hate. 2Fort. Only in this map would 2 enemies build so close together. And this week the team gets together to talk about the game and throw out a few tips and strats for the map.

This week we cover the spy class.

We hope you enjoy “The Christmas Episode”, but and as an added bonus below is our version of “The night before Christmas”:

Today we talk about the demoma** KA-BOOM!**

GET BEHIND ME DOCTOR! AHHH HAAA HAA AHHH HAH *COUGH* *COUGH* er… time for another Control Point.

FIRE FIRE FIRE!!

Today we bring you information about the scout class, plus other nuggets learned along the way. With many call in tips and emailed ones as well from listeners, it’s an action pack, double jumping, shotgun barrel toting episode.

Kukri… Kukri… Kukri…
Episode 5 is now live, and it’s all about the sniper! Settle back into your favorite camping spot, download the episode, and listen to our most epic and advertisement laden podcast yet!

Maggots! YOU HAD BETTER DOWNLOAD THE PODCAST TODAY AND LISTEN TO THE ENTIRE THING!! *Clunk, CLUNK, CLUNK*. TWICE! Er… well, that’s what I’d say if I was playing the soldier.

Sentry going up! And so is episode 3! It’s up and live, so listen and give us some feed back. The main discussion today revolves around the engineer class. The unsung hero that has stopped so many flag runs that you have no clue about.

In our second episode, we concentrate on the Medic who is a great class to have around TF2, even without the conc grenades. We will also discuss our views on proper playing, tips, tricks, and many other things to help you achieve victory.

The episode that started it all.
