  • Enjoy it a lot, but the audio (ironically) needs improvement

    Listen to every episode and enjoy them. One issue I have is that many of the interviews can be hard to listen to because many of the folks must be VERY far away from the microphone. The roundtable discussion in Episode 22 is a perfect example.

  • Announcing two weeks at a time?

    In the first one (I could be wrong), I thought they said that they would be announcing the upcoming week's DLC as well as the week following, since this podcast is only supposed to come out every other week. WTF? That's the only reason I subscribed to this thing.

  • Love the podcast but...

    If you have a segment in your podcast you should be proud and not have to beep it out. It gets a bit annoying.
