-- Kit Harrison, as he ends every episode.
The [=MachineCAST=] (or 'CAST for short) is a weekly video gaming podcast by British writer Kit Harrison that goes out on Fridays. Content varies between rants in which Kit dissects a story from the week's gaming news and his opinions on a select few news articles or upcoming games.

!!Tropes which the '''CAST'' provides an example of:
* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown After an 8-minute rant on Fox News' opinion of Bulletstorm]], Kit's last counter-argument is that the phrase "[[IncrediblyLamePun There's a Bulletstorm on the horizon]]", which opened the article, "wasn't even funny".
* BritishAccents: Very much so.
* CloudCuckoolander: The two Sony executives in [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgqJ1hOAd5s Episode 14]], ([[RuleOfCool one of which wears a sombrero]]) who get drunk and design Son'ys new handheld concept, the NGP.
* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: The 'CAST and [=MoaBG=] both have very distinctive black and red colour schemes, and the [=MachineAWARDS=] has black and purple.
* DeadpanSnarker: In spades; the content of an episode tends to vary between serious news content to [[BerserkButton seething rants]] to [[CloudCuckoolander anecdotes about sombrero-wearing Sony executives]] with literally no pause for breath or change in Kit's chirpy tone.
* {{Determinator}}: Harrison; every episode is recorded in one continuous take with no subsequent editing.
* EveryEpisodeEnding: "...And have a '''great''' weekend."
* IconicLogo: A styilised version of Harrison wearing a headset mic.
** [[VanityPlate And at Christmas, it gets a little Santa hat!]]
* IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming: Played with. Every episode is numbered, but each also has a title; see ShoutOut below.
* InsistentTerminology: It's "MachineCAST", not "[=MachineCast=]" or "Machinecast".
** Musings of a British Gamer, Harrison's blog, is abbreviated [=MoaBG=] and officially pronounced "mower-bee-gee".
* MotorMouth: He usually speaks at a steady pace, but in some of his more recent rants (particularly against Fox's treatment of VideoGame/{{Bulletstorm}}), Kit is often angered to the point where he's practically tripping over his own words.
* QuintessentialBritishGentleman: Kit doesn't swear in any of his content.
* RealSongThemeTune: Pendulum's "Showdown" (which starts every episode) and "The Other Side" (which ends it).
* ScheduleSlip: Liable to this if Harrison is busy on a Friday evening. One 'CAST is always missed to make way for the MachineAWARDS, which take up 6 videos on 6 consecutive days.
* ShoutOut: Many of the episode names are references to catchphrases, memes or other media.
