Punkin Spunkin posted:Awww, looks like John Oliver left it though? Is the other dude good enough to carry it with guests? I wonder if it's worth getting in on anymore or if the backlogs are any good (since if it's satirical "news of the moment" they might be a bit stale now) The backlogs are pretty funny, but it's gonna be dates as heck. And we don't know how Andy will be with guests. I suspect it won't be an issue, because it won't actually manifest. If you listen to a podcast with Andy Zaltzmann, the question is... do you like puns? If so, Good news!

It's pretty great that it took Gareth this long to find out that the "about" was superfluous.

I've started listening to this and I love it, but I can't deal with the wide loudness range. I have to turn it up to hear their normal speaking voices over road noise in the car, but then it blows out my eardrums a second later when there is screaming and/or laughing. Is there some podcast app that would clip the loud parts so I don't have to scramble to my volume knob constantly?

On the latest episode of My favorite Murderer they say they're in talks to make the crossover episodes a regular thing. Like, every three months the MFM girls will be guests on the Dollop and the Dollop boys will be guests on MFM.

They now openly acknowledge "skippers" who fast forward past their lengthy introductions to each episode (I was one myself for a while, but I've been able to tolerate them lately), and I've been really annoyed the couple of times they just made up facts about their stories because that's a loving insane thing to do and completely invalidates their discussion of that topic, but that's pretty uncommon and they've been doing better research to minimize their now-regular corrections segment. I think they've just about worked out the biggest kinks and are hitting their stride, and their Dollop crossovers have been excellent so far, I'd be thrilled if those occurred with regularity. I'd say listen to MFM's recent Podfest episode, Dave's a guest and all three stories are interesting and well-told, then follow the show from there if you like it since going through the archives is really hit-or-miss.

Or maybe not. Uhh I don't know. Anyway it was for sure super creepy!"

I liked the gals on the last dollop they were on, but for some reason this time they got on my nerves.. I don't know if its because they kept assisting in derailing the show or what. This really felt like a smollop they ran too too long.

MFM is alright and I've enjoyed the hosts' guest spots on Dollop, but my current go-to jokey murder podcast is The Last Podcast on the Left, which generally goes into much more detail with their subjects and seems to research stuff a good deal more. They also cover stuff like conspiracy theories and paranormal happenings, so it's not just murder every week if that isn't your thing.

Guy Mann posted:https://www.damninteresting.com/a-special-note-to-the-writers-at-the-dollop/ That doesn't take into account the legal implications. When accused of a crime in public, your answer then has to be very carefully chosen. The Dollop's answer was clearly drafted by a lawyer.

Improv isn't their strong suit, but boy was it poor in the Ned Kelly episode. They really need a third person on the live shows to mix it up.
