History

The idea for Limit Break Radio came in the summer of 2006 when Aniero, Kallo, Argetlam and Sayl, all real-life friends, realized that their normal Final Fantasy XI discussion would make great radio. So during summer pre-production on the show was started. The website was launched in August of 2006 and the first episode "Cutting the Ribbon" was posted on August 21'st 2006. There is currently no regular updating schedule for Limit Break Radio, shows are released when they are finished. Argetlam left the show on 9/21/07, announcing his retirement on part 2 on Limit Break Radio's Anniversary show. Gamer was chosen to fill Argetlam's shoes and his first show premiered on 12/22/07. TamTu was asked to join the crew for the summer of 2008 and was later asked to be a permanent fill in host. TamTu is also the host of He Says She Says.

About the show

Limit Break Radio is completely owned and operated by its hosts meaning the hosts pay for everything. The show is taped with Aniero, Kallo, Sayl, Gamer, and interns all in one room and a guest or two joining them by Skype. The show focuses not just on current events but also common game strategies and hosts tell many in-game stories and share experiences.

Special Events

Limit Break Radio has had several special events, here is some information about those events.

LBR's Evisceration Contest

In Sept. of 2006 Limit Break Radio had its first special event. The contest was to see who could write the wittiest Evisceration macro in celebration of Kallo obtaining said weapon skill. The prize was a copy of the Square-Enix game Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII-. Submissions were accepted over a period of two weeks. The winner was Matt from the Sylph server with the macro:

"Every time I do this - a DRK loses a pt invite ^^"

The winner was announced on Episode 6 - Not Just Boys Fun that first aired Sept 26th 2006.

LBR's Spectacular Annual Platinum Extravaganza Edition Call-in Bonanza Special vol 1

In December of 2006 Limit Break Radio held it's first call-in special where listeners had a chance to voice their opinions to Aniero and Kallo. Sayl and Argetlam were not able to participate in the call-in special. The total running time of 'Limit Break Radio's Spectacular Annual Platinum Extravaganza Edition Call-in Bonanza Special Volume 1' was just over two hours with a total of 17 calls.

Extra Life

In October of 2008 Limit Break Radio joined forces with Pet Food Alpha, Vana'diel Profiles, W00t Studios and Geek Speak to take part in Sarcastic Gamer's first annual Extra Life fundraiser to help children with pediatric cancer. Team Limit Break Radio raised $9,345 and combined all of the teams raised nearly $11,000 of the $115,000 total. In conjunction with the fundraiser, a twenty-four hour live broadcast was done over the W00t Studios stream featuring members of each of the respective sites as well as almost 100 people participating all over the world. Some of that audio was used in Limit Break Radio's Episode 38 entitled Extra Life.
