this is a thread about podcasts, people who get free reign to record and upload whatever they want, a blank check if you will, and sometime those checks clear

EAR_UTalkinU2ToMe_Cover_C2-300x300.jpg

and sometimes...

sometimes they BOUNCE BAYBEE

It couldn't be done without all of you, the Poduers, the Threaducers, our finest thread readers, the fuckmasters, the pods, Dirt Bike Poddies, Thursday Threadies, the Tiebreakers, the Poet Laureates, Soaking Wet Threadies, White Hot Threadies, the Fart Detectives, you're NOT Professor Crispies, you ARE Meat Lovers, if we see you in the streets, we'll wish you a hearty Hello Threadle

I'm so excited for people who don't know to think I'm having a manic episode but it's just the truth

    Which podcast do you think that guy is listening to?

    He seems to be having a good time, so he's probably not listening to Lore.

    still my favorite podcast-related story is when Sarah Koenig went into NPR after serial season 1 (when it was still the first and only podcast) and wrote the word "podcast" on the blackboard, then just added a dollar sign to the end of it

    Nothing - his battery died 3 hours ago but if he takes out his earbuds his co-workers will try to talk to him.

    I was originally thinking of a joke about being the host of one of those E! newsmagazine shows

    now I'm just thinking about how "Access Hollywood" is a very Austin Walker NPC name

    "The team even said that it hasn’t ruled out virtual reality headsets like the Oculus Rift and the HTC Vive."
    I'm kind of shocked the rift and vive people haven't already thrown money at this project to get them to build in VR support, it seems like an obvious killer app for VR.

    Not a comprehensive list

    1. Excessive and blatant cherry-picking and reinterpreting of information to fit an uninspired narrative
    2. Co-option and misrepresentation of other cultures' stories by a white dude

    Hello video game thread
    I've played the two extant episodes of Life is Strange: Before the Storm, and I have to say that despite my initial trepidation (and some occasionally, uh, rocky vocals) it is Very Good

    Episode 2 and also I guess a spoiler for mainline Life is Strange
    The whole sequence surrounding the school play was amazing and had the dual effect of being very good in its own right and reminding me of my own time in high school theatre and what a terrifying and rewarding experience that was
    But like, once Rachel goes off script and the two of you start improvising Shakespeare dialogue about getting out of this shit town and hitting the open road together I was fucking ENTHRALLED and the kid in the crowd yelling SAY YES into the silence was such a great way to break the tension

    I am so immediately invested in these two even though I know the tragedy that's going to follow. It's rough

    Man I'm getting all emotional about this game but I really wasn't expecting it to hit me like it did
    Last night was a roller coaster, y'all

    It reminded me of something I would occasionally see if I happened to stop on the History Channel. Which isn't a dig or a compliment, it's just sort of there.

    He manages to finish every episode with some variation of "What if the real monster,,,,,,was man,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"

    Two things killed Lore for me

    One was that I read one of the novels written by the dude and it was possibly the worst fantasy novel I've ever read

    Two was he covered a folklore subject that I actually knew a bunch about and was wrong about a ton of stuff, including intentionally omitting facts to sensationalize his story

    Is there a podcast out there that is similar to Lore but better researched and better at the whole cultural element of it?

    My Hero Academia is a metaphor for triumphing despite having a chronic illness and how if you let society know about it then everything falls apart.

    What I've listened to of Spirits has been better, but I didn't get super deep with that one (and it goes in a slightly different direction).
