    As much as I enjoyed hearing you talk about white power on TWA, I'm gonna point out that when dealing with light white is a mix of all colors.

    So your joke about white being untainted by other colors doesn't work.

    Because clearly Power Rangers power colors work like light and not paint.

    yeah but saying "the white power" made everyone else uncomfortable so I just leaned into it

    I was listening to Ep 17 of Let's Place earlier, and the guests trying to hijack the show with their own ranking podcasts ("Welcome to Ranking Every Digimon!") made me realize how good Luke is at coming up with podcast concepts.

    Let's Place is a perfect platform for anarchic improv comedy. The randomly selected games provide a goldmine of jokes (thank you everyone who recommended Ep 10, which goes crazy places as the panelists learn more and more about Westfront Omega and its creator, Paul). Meanwhile, the "4 random games, 1 viewer suggestion" per episode format strikes a great balance between deep dives into weirdness and giving the audience something they can recognize and latch onto amidst the insanity.

    And then there's the "Let Me Tell You About..." format, which is so versatile that it's already spawned two spin-offs and the main show is going into its third season. The core concept of "a super-fan introduces the thing they love to someone who knows nothing about it" is really endearing and relatable, and can be applied to almost anything. There's something inherently appealing about listening to someone talk about a thing they love and, in the process, convincing someone else to love it too.

    I honestly think Luke could build an entire podcasting empire just by franchising off "Let's Place" and "Let Me Tell You About..." to cover different topics.

    Anyway the point I'm trying to make is that @Speed Racer is very good at podcasts.

    Not looking forward to 100 degree weather with humidity at 100% when June rolls in.

    The timing of the messages is too good and if griffin talked about his route at all internally they'd have a good idea of where he'd be

    Or another McElroy, but yeah, definitely someone on the inside.

    Which while a bit contrived, is certainly better than just having it with nothing, because the series was about to get really boring.

    I haven't got that far, because it is a very long episode. At the point I paused (somewhere about the 1h30m mark) Luke had just gone rogue and started threatening to talk about Homestuck. I can see how it could escalate to hostage-taking from there.

    Patrick's whole segment there was kinda blech

    The way in which he very confidently declared himself not a transphobe just felt very self congratulating

    He means well but he still seems caught up in being a Good Progressive. He has trouble articulating a point and instead he ends up saying a lot of words until he gets to his point

    So I just wanna call this out for general coolness

    For one of my college courses, I have to write a profile about and interview someone "prominent in their field," and rather than talk to just some business guy like I expect a lot of the other people in the class to do, I wanted to talk to someone that blends business and creative, so I emailed Tom Scharpling, host of The Best Show (and also voice of Greg Universe)

    And he actually responded to me

    So this dude took time out of his day, from his home, on a SATURDAY, to call and talk to a fan to assist them with an assignment

    That interview was not recorded, it won't be transcribed, it won't be published anywhere, it doesn't help his career one bit, but he still did it

    He's one of the nicest guys I've ever had dealings with, which makes it even funnier that he plays a big ol' grumpus on the radio

    I just wanna give credit where it's due, cause man what a cool thing he did

    @Chincymcchilla your wife has the exact tone and cadence of speech as matt. Not the actual pitch, obviously, but if I didn't know any better I'd say they were siblings, or that they at least grew up in the same household.
