On a different track, does anyone have an RSS feed for Sawbones that has the episodes from 2013 on it? I listen to all my podcasts through Pocketcasts and was going to finally start on Sawbones only to find out that what I'm pretty sure is the official rss feed only goes back to Jan 2014. (The first ep on the RSS actually leads off with them talking about how it was their 30th episode, and I was pretty sure it was a goof until I actually went and checked)

From http://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/15/theater/hamilton-takes-a-road-trip-to-the-white-house.html?_r=0:quote:Brody Brown, a student at Loudoun County High School, asked him what inspired his creative process. McElroys literally God tier, confirmed.

Can someone explain the Lin-Manual "great job" thing? I'm guessing it's an MBMBAM inside joke -- I should probably listen to that some day

They had a bit on the show once(not the one where he was on) where they suggested that every car should have three horns, one of which said "greatjob" when you hit it to signify another driver had done something good.

I didn't think the actual bit was all that great either, but LMM did and that's what's important because it got this wild train a-rollin'. Well, that and goldust.

Yeah I enjoyed the joke well enough, but it wasn't one of my favourites. Plus the way Lin's having people do it is substantially different from the bit as I remember it. Mostly I'm interesting in seeing the guy who's basically the toast of NYC right now mess with(?) Griffin.

Yea I don't think the entertainment value is meant to be funny, more like 'haha holy poo poo this dude who's probably the biggest broadway dude right now is trying to get a rogue's gallery of every celeb the brothers mention a lot making reference to a really rando joke they did once'.

He's gotta get in all of the weird, specific celebrities first before you jump up to the president. We need, like, Scott Bakula, Tim Curry, probably the cast of Without a Paddle. A whole bunch before the finisher.

I mean, I don't know if we live in a world amazing enough for that to exist, but we had Joe Biden visit the place I work at not too long ago and if the "is it okay for me to post this" process for photos and videos of Obama is anything like it was for Biden, it could just be taking forever for LMM to get word that it's kosher.

Some ~scandalous~ revelations in The The Adventure Zone Zone on roll-fudging. Also I see why they were cautious about it, but it is perfect that (I guess I'll spoil this? better safe than sorry) Taako is gay and I don't think they need to worry about being offensive. e:also Carey Pietsch does amazing fanart of this podcast, here's her take on Adventure Zone: Nights (donate if you don't already, you dorks) http://twitter.com/careydraws/status/710512422507954177 e2: jfc I can't spell Stroop There It Is fucked around with this message at 20:51 on Mar 17, 2016 |

I got a bit excited at Clint and Griffin's ideas for second seasons. I'd love for them to explore tabletop in genres other than high fantasy, but I hope they just don't try to adapt D&D to those genres, though. I want them to see more of what the hobby has to offer, and in turn show other people that side, because for a lot of people, D&D is the end all be all of tabletop.

I gave up on Harmontown about halfway through his big post-firing tour of America but didn't switching from D&D to Shadowrun completely torpedo his tabletop gaming segment? The actual game mechanics are the least important part of Adventure Zone, there's really no reason for them to switch systems and have to relearn entirely new rules and have more bullshit getting in the way of the jokes and storytime.

Shadowrun destroyed harmontown yeah To be fair it destroyed a segment that wasn't working already considering that nobody gave a poo poo about it, it was getting less and less onscreen time, and kumail had basically disappeared from the show entirely so. Yeah I do agree though that switching systems outside of extremely extenuating circumstances can kill podcasts. Right now I'm trying to get through friends at the table and although dungeon world sounds like a fun game to play, making up the world and lore communally is some dire, dire radio

It depends on what system they picked - Pathfinder would wreck everything, something more story focused like Apocalypse Engine might suit Clint better - but it's probably better to just stick with what they know.
