The only time I listen to Todd shows is when I'm having a bout of insomnia, and they work quite well to solve that.

The only time I listen to a Todd show is when both his and Lance's shows are on the front page and I click on the wrong link.

Has Dynamite Dave ever said a match was better than 5 stars?

Beef Jerky Robot posted:Has Dynamite Dave ever said a match was better than 5 stars? Plenty of times, though he's never given one more than 5 stars, as the system isn't malleable or whatever. Basically he'll put it this way, "if match X was five stars, match Y is six stars".

Also, Lance's talk about diving and such was really interesting. He seemed to be in a good mood, which is probably why it was a good show.

Listening to Lance's rant I want to make one addendum. If you're a heel, you shouldn't be looking to make the crowd cheer for your move. I had a great thought of being a guy who was well known for jumping to the top turnbuckle and moonsaulting off (like as one fluid move, Shelton Benjamin style), then after a heel turn hinted at the top rope moonsault but instead jumped off to deliver a basic elbow. Bryan's ranted on this kind of psychology before, when he and Vinny reviewed that Rockers vs Brainbusters tag match from the MSG show a while back. Its one of those rants that's always stuck with me when I'm thinking about structuring a match, and why I like Hunico so much.

Yeah that was a great Lance show. I've never heard analysis into flip dives like that before. Imagine if wrestling announcers would break down moves in that way a bit more, rather than just saying "WOW WHATTAMANEUVER"

Although that's supposed to be what Jerry Lawler and Booker T do. JBL was fantastic at this. The way he described a hit to the nose alone made you feel like you had been smacked in the face.

In theory that's exactly why you have a former player/fighter doing colour for any sport, because they have a perspective on it, having participated, that an observer can't, and can provide the POV of what the situation's like, having been there. For all his flaws, Booker does at least try to do this.

Dave just completely BURYING Todd at the end of the post-EC show was great.

He then proceded to be completely shocked by Todd's argument and essentially said that anyone claiming the UFC don't want their fighters doing call outs in post-fight interviews is an idiot. Although he didn't use that word.

We did a Punshport Podcast last night after the Elimination Chamber. I didn't finish editing it until 5 AM cause 1) I'm lazy, 2) It was hard, 3) SoundCloud rejected my first opening song with their super copyright detection thingy. Punchsport Podcast - Elimination Chamber 2012 Starring: The Goog, HulkaMatt, MRP, Also TinDeck's file size limit can eat a dick.

Hey I don't mean to start trouble, but HulkaMatt tweeted people should only listen to the first two minutes of the episode, then turn off. How does this complete indifference of your hard work make you feel?

How does this complete indifference of your hard work make you feel? In fairness it's an improvement over 'this is horrible no one listen'. It's like working for HHH, you never get praise but over time you get less buried.

Up until now it had been Nut Bunnies, but I grabbed a freeware Skype call recorder (which actually put my audio on the left channel and everyone else on the right--fun!) and cleaned it up in Audacity. HulkaMatt and I had about half an hour of raw audio recorded when CC and MRP called, but it was really rough; we were both stumbling over our words and thinking about picking it up the next day. Thanks for the save, guys!

I assume you're talking about CallGraph, and this can be fixed by going into its options and setting it to record in Mono.

Give me a hell yeah if you are looking forward to Lance Storm giving another lecture on dives, which I assume he will given all the injuries they suffered tonight.

Todd Martin's Raw write up tonight makes my head spinquote:I found John Cena on this show very likable. He seemed more genuine and he acted like he cared...

Doubtful, none of the injuries were suffered through dives really. A bad throw sure, but not actual dives. I expect a lecture on not working when you're already hurt.

Fish Of Doom posted:Todd Martin's Raw write up tonight makes my head spin I actually think, to the average fan, Todd's right. Most people aren't thinking "how dare Cena slut-shame Eve?!", they're thinking she's a skanky bitch that burned Zack and put the moves on a married man, and had just explicitly said she'd done so premeditatedly. I'm not saying WWE are right for doing it, or that it makes Cena come off well if you think in those terms, but I don't think Todd's wrong in the grand scheme of things. Add in the promo at the end, and they really are trying to turn people around on Cena. Basically, if you want enlightened, nuanced portrayals of the sexual double standard, don't watch wrestling.

LividLiquid posted:Holy balls. Skype sounds waaaay better than whatever Bryan uses. What do you use for post in audacity? I tried pretty hard to cut out the background noise (me fumbling with my mic or just breathing too hard, that sort of thing) and also eliminate some stammering and missteps when I could. There was also some rear end in a top hat who felt the need to say "yup" or "mm-hmm" after every point someone made (again: me), and I did what I could to silence those. It took about two hours to edit once we all said good night and closed the Skype call.
