    So we get labled and can never comment on anything unless it is nothing but us saying how wonderful and perfect everything is? None of us (to my knowledge) are out posting on Twitter or anything, our feelings about what went on. We're just here talking about our views of the discussion (which, by the way they even touched on with the 'we should probably not be saying this'). I am one of the biggest rah-rah people that listens to Earwolf, but I'm still allowed to voice my critism when I find something that bothers me. No one is calling for anyone to be in trouble, no one is calling for anyone to be written a letter or boycotted or in any way taken down. We're just saying how we felt about this one. After hundreds of episodes, I think we're allowed to express displeasure sometimes.

    You and everyone else absolutely have that right. In fact, no one said you didn't, but I find a lot of people on Earwolf to hold some bizarre double standard in comedy. I'm thinking about Horatio's recent appearances on i4h and CBB!, the mini anger at i4h about talking about what's racist, and basically David in the Live Portland episode of PB. I just don't understand how midget jokes are somehow much more offensive than say... raping children bits on other podcasts. I just find it ridiculously petty.

    edit: Just listened. Solid ep, Tig and Leykis had this oil-and-water vibe that was funny but also kinda redundant since Scott is usually the wet towel. Personally I think it might be time to retire that character for awhile having peaked on With Special Guest a couple weeks back.

    The crowd and Tig in the last 1/3 of this is a good barometer of why this character needs to be shelved for a while. Can't nail them all (or most of them in the final 1/3) regardless of how many vulgar jokes or obscure literary/arts references you throw out.

     

    However, I feel like the women of Wild Horses held their own great when actually given a chance. And Tig is just the best. I need to figure out a creative way to become an expert on Professor Blastoff (which has been on a roll lately with a string of fantastic episodes).

    That cat app 1) doesn't make sense 2) sounds exactly like the bullshit you'd expect to hear about at SXSW. In fact, hearing them take the piss out of that one and the movie choice app was too damn funny.

     

    The too soon discussion couldn't have been more on point. I kind of wonder if Besser was at the first CBB! taping, heard the fall out, and landed perfectly into a "too soon" scenario.

    I'm not actually sold on the idea that Horatio was supposed to be there at all. His arrival seemed to surprise everyone and didn't come at a natural moment and Scott seemed thrown for a second.

    I'm going to let you all finish your pedantic conversations, but this post deserves more attention. This is exactly how I felt, but upon further investigation (looking at the CBB twitter), it looks like there was an empty fifth stool in one of the pictures. I would embed if I knew how.

    One of the end of the year Comedy Bang Bangs had PFT and Scott talking about someone complaining about what I'm pretty sure was musical guests. The conversation basically went the way of PFT saying, "Fuck that and fuck those people."

     

    So, just so you all know, when you complain on the message boards, this is how PFT (and I'm guessing most/all folks at Earwolf) feel about you whining about a free podcast that you can choose to skip.
