Help and FAQ's

The Show

When does the show start?

Buzz Out Loud records live around 10:30 a.m. PDT (17:30Z, 1:30 p.m. EDT). There is no strict start time.

Do Tom, Molly, and Jason watch the chat?

Tom (acedtect), Molly (mollywood) and Jason (raygun01) do log on to the chat. They usually chat a bit before and after the show. Just don't forget they're making a show, so they don't have a lot of time to look at the chat. They may or may not answer questions during the show.

I missed the show, is it possible to watch it again?

As a matter of fact there is, go to [1] to view the recorded videos. Keep in mind there may be some delay, so it can take a while before the page is updated.

Now with that out of the way, if you have any relevant questions feel free to ask! Have fun and remember #CNETFans is open 24/7 :)

Why Did My Nick Change To Unidentified?

If your nick was automatically changed to Unidentified##### this means that you were using a registered nick.

• If you registered it, you must identify (log in):
  • Change your nick back to what it was: /nick YourNameHere
  • Identify with NickServ within 60 seconds: /msg nickserv IDENTIFY [password]
• If you did not register it:
  • Someone else has already claimed the nick, and you must choose another: /nick NewNameHere

I'm banned, what can I do?
