Podcasts about Call of Duty

I just spent 8 HOURS playing Battlefield 6, and let me tell you - this game is about to change EVERYTHING! From the insane destruction physics to the massive 128-player battles, EA has finally delivered something that might actually dethrone Call of Duty. After 8 hours of pure gameplay, I can confidently say this might be the comeback Battlefield desperately needed.

Mage Arena is één van de nieuwste hits op Steam, een game met proximity chat waarin je ook nog eens je stem gebruikt om spreuken op te werpen richting je vijanden in vier-tegen-vier-gevechten. Niels Kooloos heeft het gespeeld en praat erover met Joe van Burik in deze Mini-Game-aflevering van All in the Game. Mage Arena is nu te spelen via Steam Early Access op Windows pc. Over All in the GameAll in the Game is de podcast over games voor iedereen. Wanneer er iets speelt in de wereld van games, hoor je dat hier: spannende ontwikkelingen, boeiende onderzoeken en natuurlijk de nieuwste releases om te spelen op je PlayStation, Xbox, pc of welk platform dan ook. Onder leiding van BNR's techredacteur Joe van Burik hoor je gesprekken met andere gamekenners, zoals beursnerd Jochem Visser, techredacteurs Niels Kooloos en Daniël Mol én popcultuurkenners Donner Bakker en Sam van Zuilen. Ook hoogleraar computerwetenschappen Felienne Hermans en universiteit docent Laura van der Lubbe schuiven geregeld aan, en je hoort bijdragen van audioproducers André Dortmont en Wesley Schouwenaars, Elke week hoor je minimaal één aflevering van All in the Game. Of juist meerdere, wanneer er veel speelt in de wereld van games. Soms met impressies en analyses over actuele ontwikkelingen en nieuwe games. Andere keren kun je luisteren naar interviews met makers van bijzondere games, van Grand Theft Auto (GTA) tot Baldur's Gate 3 - zowel Nederlandse als internationale ontwikkelaars. Of we praten met e-sport-atleten, onderzoekers en andere experts in de wereld van videogames, in onze rubriek Main Game. En regelmatig laten we iemand van BNR Nieuwsradio aanschuiven om te vertelen over diens favoriete game van vroeger in de Retro-rubriek. In deze podcast kijken we verder dan alleen wat een game leuk maakt: we bespreken juist ook in de culturele, maatschappelijke, economische en technologische impact ervan. Jaarlijks gaat er immers zo'n 200 miljard euro om in de wereldwijde game-industrie, dat is al (vele jaren zelfs) daadwerkelijk meer dan de muziek- en filmindustrie bij elkaar opgeteld. Zo hoor je bij All in the Game niet alleen wat je moet spelen - en op welk nieuwe (game)platform - maar kun je daar nog bewuster mee bezig zijn, over praten en natuurlijk van genieten. Of het nou gaat om Super Mario of Sonic the Hedgehog, Fortnite of Roblox, voetbalgames van EA Sports FC of de FIFA, Call of Duty of Battlefield, League of Legends of Dota,of goude oude titels zoals Tetris, Rollercoaster Tycoon, The Sims of zelfs Snake. En we hebben ook aandacht voor liefhebberijen die dicht op games zitten, zoals Dungeons & Dragons, Lego en de films, series en strips rond reeksen zoals Star Wars en Marvel. Het komt allemaal aan bod in All in the Game. All in the Game werd als podcast al in 2022 opgenomen in het archief van Het Nederlands instituut voor Beeld & Geluid in Hilversum - als eerste podcast van BNR Nieuwsradio en één van de eerste gamepodcasts van allemaal. Gezamenlijk met talloze Nederlandse televisieprogramma’s, radioshows, games, websites, webvideo’s en podcast vormt dit materiaal de Nederlandse mediageschiedenis. Over Joe van BurikJoe van Burik is presentator, podcastmaker en techredacteur bij BNR Nieuwsradio. Je hoort hem bijna dagelijks in de Tech Update met het laatste nieuws over digitale technologie, en gaat daar in BNR Digitaal (samen met Ben van der Burg) elke woensdag dieper op in met gasten uit de techwereld.

A new competitor in the "games with destructible environments" category. This week, it's finally here: Donkey Kong Bananza. Join us for our introduction for one of the best games in recent memory. It's a new frontier for 3D platformers with DK and Pauline mixing smooth movement with wild destruction. It's a little of that Nintendo magic usually reserved for Mario given new life in the form of a successor to the DK games of yesteryear. This first look at the game takes us through Bananza's first seven major layers as the journey to the planet core begins. Plus, why is Call of Duty so irritating to install? Check out the show on BlueSky @MarkersOnTheMap.

Ett nytt avsnitt av Speljuntan kikar upp ur busken. Djupdyksresan fortsätter och stannar till i höjd med dina knän. För i detta avsnitt pratar vi om det som händer när du böjer på dom: ducka, huka, krypa eller kräla. Vi pratar om spelen som ger den perfekta känslan av att glida in i knäsittet, delar med oss av favoritkrypen och funderar på fysiken bakom det berömda kryphoppet. Härliga kryp, tepåse-squats, trånga utrymmen att kräla sig igenom - ett avsnitt späckat med allt det som händer när vi ligger lågt! Spel som nämns i avsnittet: Outer Worlds 2, Death Stranding 2, Skyrim, Dishonored, PUBG, Apex Legends, Call of Duty, Counter-Strike, Halo, Escape from Tarkov, Destiny, Valorant, Super Mario, The Last of Us, Gears of War, The Division, Metal Gear, Half-Life, Crawl, Horizon Zero Dawn, Resident Evil Village, Assassin's Creed, World of Warcraft, Ring Fit Adventure

On this week's episode of The Carbon Footprint, we explore the impact of everything from crime stats to card games to cosmic infidelity. Two mayors somehow reduced homicide rates in cities that were basically real-life Call of Duty maps. The Epstein files? Turns out the explosive reveal landed with all the intensity of a soggy Post-it note. We also ask the hard questions—like what it feels like to get cheated on by Stephen Hawking (spoiler: the betrayal is both emotional and theoretical). And in the biggest gamble of all, Uno is coming to casinos—because nothing says high stakes like losing your mortgage money on a skip card. Society's a mess—we're just here to track the footprints.

Welcome to episode #232 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we have EWC on the horizon to officially close out the competitive season for Black Ops 6. There had been lots of speculation as to which teams were gonna show up for the final tournament of the year, and which teams are in desperate need of a team change. Before this though, we cover the EWC as an event, and what we feel this event should include as time goes on. For a world cup tournament to live up to the name in our opinion, we share our thoughts on getting more players from a variety of countries involved in the league. This however has a few hurdles that need to be addressed first, and we give our opinion on how we think the league and EWC could have even more players from around the world competing at the biggest event. Finally, we give our EWC predictions in pool play, and who we think will be the winner overall.Who did you have winning EWC? Was your prediction right?  What teams surprised you the most, both good and bad? Finally, what do you think about our discussion regarding more players from other regions at EWC? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.Follow us:Twitter: ⁠⁠@TheCODCasuals⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠@TheCODCasuals⁠⁠TikTok: ⁠⁠@TheCODCasuals⁠⁠Contact us:Business Inquiries: TheCODCasuals@gmail.com

Mike answered the call of duty, deploying to serve his country and eventually retiring as a Colonel after a distinguished career that began and ended at Camp Lejeune. A graduate of The Citadel, Mike brings both military precision and raw emotional storytelling to his music.Now, the band is back together—writing, recording, and reconnecting with fans.

We're sitting down with Daniel Bennett, a Los Angeles based digital creator and Head of Creative at his own media agency. Daniel has led social strategy for some of the biggest names in entertainment and gaming, including Grammy-winning artists like Diplo and Dillon Francis, as well as global brands like Call of Duty. But what really sets Daniel apart is his ability to blend storytelling and strategy in a way that resonates deeply with today's audiences. While he's made his mark behind the scenes of major campaigns, Daniel has also built a personal brand that's taken off. His relatable content about the chaos of your twenties — from the awkwardness of dating to the ups and downs of friendship — has struck a nerve, earning him over 200,000 followers in just 60 days. His growth has been rooted in one key principle: consistency. In this episode, we dive into what it means to build a sustainable creative career in the ever-evolving digital landscape. We explore how the role of a social media manager has become as vital as a lawyer or a CFO, how Daniel transitioned from agency work to building a brand of his own, and what it takes to stay ahead in the creator economy. On this week's episode you'll learn: How consistency became Daniel's secret weapon for growth What it actually takes to hit 200K followers in 60 days Why creators and brands alike need to rethink how they view social media roles How Daniel took lessons from agency life and applied them to his consulting work What's coming next in the future of content creation and why storytelling still wins

The Star Wars Battlefront 2 community is rising from the ashes—and we're here for it. In this episode, Sage Goodwin and SammyBoiii dive deep into the unexpected resurgence of Battlefront 2, what's driving players back eight years after launch, and why this classic FPS might be the key to the future of Star Wars shooters. We explore: The community-led Resurgence Day movement Why EA and Lucasfilm Games can't ignore these player numbers What Battlefront 3 could look like—and who should make it The frustrating state of modern FPS games Why Battlefront 2's monetization-free model feels so refreshing today With 30,000+ concurrent players and meme culture breathing new life into the game, the demand for a new Battlefront is louder than ever. Is this just nostalgia—or the clearest signal yet that the FPS industry needs a shake-up?

As Christians, we may face push back from people anywhere but when we take a stand no matter what it may cost us, it brings glory to God and we fulfill our ultimate purpose. Just as David was able to defeat Goliath because He had God on His side, we have God in us to protect us and be with us no matter what we face.

//The Wire//2300Z July 7, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: FLOODING DEVASTATES AMERICAN SOUTH. MULTIPLE AMBUSHES REPORTED AT ICE FACILITIES IN TEXAS.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------HomeFront-Texas: Severe flooding continues to impact the state following unusual weather systems producing much more precipitation than originally forecasted. Concerning casualties, 82x fatalities have been reported so far. Hundreds of rescues by small boat and helicopter have been conducted, and Search and Rescue operations continue throughout the Guadalupe and Llano River basins.Texas: This morning, a small arms engagement was reported at the CBP annex in McAllen. Authorities state that an assailant (who has not yet been identified) was waiting in ambush with multiple firearms to target CBP agents arriving for work this morning. After a short firefight, the individual was killed. This shooting comes two days after a separate skirmish was reported at the Prairieland Detention Facility in Alvarado.Friday night, an individual who was visibly armed was acting suspiciously in the vicinity of the Prairieland Detention Facility. Beyond these initial factual details, the timing of events becomes unclear. However, as this situation was unfolding, a group of insurgents were observed maneuvering tactically to the west of the facility, taking up a position haphazardly concealed in a treeline running north/south approximately 50m to the west of the facility's perimeter fence. Shortly after this observation, this element launched their attack by setting off fireworks either as a diversionary maneuver, to conceal the sound of gunfire, or to prompt police to come out of the facility to enter the killzone of their arranged ambush. During the fray, a small arms engagement erupted outside this facility, as the element of insurgents in the treeline opened fire on one of the officers attempting to investigate the situation. No one was killed during the exchange, however one officer was wounded. A total of 11x people have been arrested so far in conjunction with this attack.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: The shooters arrested in conjunction with the Prairieland Detention Center skirmish appear to not necessarily be Cartel-affiliated, but the more garden-variety far-left-insurgent-type. Cartel members don't often take breaks during a small arms battle to spray paint graffiti (as has been reported taking place during this engagement), nor do more organized and professional militants usually get caught en masse like this. All of the attackers were wearing body armor at the time of their arrest, but local reports state that only one firearm was recovered (the rifle that jammed and concluded the attack). As such, this is either a very kinetic "protest" event, or a very poor ambush.Concerning the other small arms engagement (the shooting in McAllen), it's possible there is a link between the two, though authorities have not speculated publicly on this yet. Prior to his attack, the McAllen shooter had spray painted the words "Cordis Die" on his vehicle, which was used to ram the gate at the Border Patrol facility to launch the attack. This phrase is most commonly associated with video game culture (such as the Call of Duty franchise), so it's possible that the attack in Alvarado could be linked, even if it's just a loose link based on ideology. Both attacks were conducted with very obvious public relations efforts in mind, and symbology/politics was certainly a focal point of the evidence left behind. Nevertheless, there are so many attacks on Border Patrol facilities at present that it's hard to establish any clear link between all of the groups who have chosen to conduct targeting efforts.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//
