On the 126th edition of Social Blend, we’re joined by Arianrhod aka Caers Mane, where we kick off the show talking about the big news from Lucasfilm announcing the upcoming release of the Star Wars Saga on Blu-Ray completed with never-before-seen Deleted Scenes. From one epic saga to another, Jay hijacks the conversation to discuss the first ever 3D IMAX porn film created in Hong Kong, where the glasses are dishwasher safe!

Following the light-hearted discussions, we jump into the controversy of the week: The Ground Zero Mosque. From Pat Conden‘s first video criticizing the proposals, to President Obama‘s recent comments of the issue. We talk about the facts of Cordoba House, and offer our own opinions and thoughts on an issue that is sure to continue dominating the mainstream news for weeks to come.

From here, we jump into a range of topics, from new upcoming movies, to US combat operations ending in Iraq, to the debate of an Australian Republic. We also discuss the recent news of the Craigslist Killer, Philip Markoff, killing himself while in custody awaiting trial. Also included attached to this show is our User Focus Mixx Award announcement for the week!
