The video from this event was originally available from justin.tv prior to the service's shutdown. The videos are now available in this YouTube playlist. An index to what happened when (but not a complete transcript) is available from sgu24index at WikiDot. You can download MP3s of the SGU 24 - this is simply the audio stripped from the video chunks, converted to mp3. Most of them are 2 hours long (except where there were technical difficulties on the SGU 24 which cut a chunk short).
