    we don't have to kick anyone out. There are 10 people. Auto-Sean and Auto-Hayes would be 11 and 12. I'm going to put it to a vote on the fantasy site.

     

    rock the vote http://games.espn.go...0&seasonId=2015

     

    Yeah, I know, I was referring to Norm's comment that we should do a ten person league like normal human beings. God, can't I go one friggin' day without all these CHUMPS stomping ALL OVER my GREAT BITS?!


  2. I have voiced my concerns on the CBB episode forum but I will say this here. Putting everything older than six months behind the paywall is wrong. It is an openly hostile move against people on the free tier. If you watch the CBB TV show and want to hear Fourvels podcast appearances? That will be $4.99. Lauren Lapkus points you to the origin of one of her characters on twitter? $4.99. Want to listen to a best of so you can see if this podcast is something you are even interested in? $4.99 thank you very much. It is exclusionary and wrong and never should have been implemented.

     

    Also Netflix, Amazon Prime, music streaming service of you choice, any twitch channel your are subscribed to, the list of online entertainment services that want your low monthly payment keeps growing and growing. I have seen this called the death by 1000 cuts and I frankly agree. This is getting harder and harder to swallow. If (as I suspect, might not actually be true) E.W. Scripps only bought Earwolfs parent company so it could implement this paid podcasting service I frankly resent it.

     

    We are not all made of money, iphones are expensive and as my grandmother said "a fiver is a lot of money if you haven't got it."

     

    Scott said the Best Ofs will remain free and he also said this was in the works long before Scripps entered the picture and that Scripps has essentially zero control over what they decide to put in the app.


  3. Sorry if this has been asked already,

     

    Does "ad-free" mean the ads are completely edited out? I'm very excited about the service and am generally happy with the idea of the backlog being ad-free. However, some shows (like HH) have really creative and interesting ads. If those are edited out, wouldn't they be technically impossible to find unless they're already on youtube or something? If I went through the HH backlog on Howl, I wouldn't want to miss out on classic ads like the Cards Against Humanity trilogy or Verbatim Vic.

     

    Looking forward to subscribing!
