Angus' post-pubescent voice in Thursday's TAZ special episode was extremely disquieting.

there's also like 800 pokemon now so even if you have every type matchup memorized there's no way you're gonna remember the type of everything you fight unless you actually take the time to look them up

even though i think stuff like:sexpig by night posted:I think it was the annoying things like 'what's strong to poison' and mixing up Rock and Ground stuff is total bullshit, most pokemon designs and names give you some clue as to their typing. dual-type pokemon suck for this though.

As someone who has not watched the Nuzlocke run I think it's just kid of funny after Griffin talking about his elaborate unwinnable Pokemon gym to find out that he actually isn't that great at Pokemon, or at least is unfamiliar with the newer gen mechanics.

Yes, because he was 1000% serious about that.

Well, he did poo poo on the idea of a Bug-type gym, when Bug types are actually pretty cool.

So I went to a comic con yesterday and saw a TON of TAZ cosplay. Mostly Taako, some Taako and Angus pairs. No full group of THB. There was a couple in red robes and their daughter was Taako, voice and all. I loved it. My GF, who has never listened, didn't understand why I was freaking out.

Also put like 500+ hours into simulator/web based comp pokemon matches like an insane person does (like me!)

I was at the second Boston show and some rear end in a top hat brought a sign to get picked for an audience question and just talked about his own podcast without asking a real question

Stroop There It Is posted:Yeah that dude sucked, and also the raccoon "question" was bad The raccoon person was obviously trying to show off how funny they were, but the brothers managed to squeeze some comedy out of that one. The podcast guy was just a total rear end and I'm not going to be sad when he gets edited out.

DC had a person that wanted to vent about their job in a coffee shop, which was the bummer I mentioned earlier.

The coffee shop girl was really funny IMO. She kept doing takes to the audience like Travis does when Griffin and Justin are talking. And Griffin's realization that it's the perfect situation for installing a trap door was really good. Overall this show didn't stand up to the DC live show from last year in terms of buck-fuckin'-wild audience questions -- you know, the ep with "my dog keeps finding human remains" and "a relative whom I don't know at all gifted me a pair of tap shoes". edit: also forgot to mention that Justin said "if you made a hole with a gun perpendicular [etc]" while asking a clarifying question to an audience question-asker and a weirdly small handful of audience members screamed uncontrollably at the They Might Be Giants reference. I felt like that should've landed better, given the crowd of total nerdlingers at that show. prayer group fucked around with this message at 06:23 on Sep 11, 2017 |

I think a lot of fans are trying really hard to be funny because they like those really funny brothers, the difference is when the brothers pick those intentionally funny questions it works out a lot better than when the audience isn't forcing unvetted ones into a live environment. I... I don't think shrimp heaven Daniel or the solo lemon flash mob guy were real.

Been listening to the TAZ live show and I honestly really love it. Like all the live shows it felt a little fanservicey at times but it was still really good.

I think Neverwinter High was an amazing idea and easily could have sustained it's own arc. It's a shame it only got an hour and a half.

I feel like the episode suffered because the audience couldn't contain themselves and poo poo their pants in glee and excitement at even the merest hint of a callback or a goof.

It kind of reminded me of the first Night Vale live show I attended. The fandom was at it's height so a lot of people were more hype than usual. Later shows I attended after the fandom died down were much more restrained. Such is the case with TAZ.

Unless you mean, like, just in the last couple weeks since the Balance arc ended, but even if that's what you meant I'd disagree since the fandom still seems to be growing now

timp posted:From where I'm sitting TAZ fandom has only gone up though? No, what I mean is I think in a year or two the live shows aren't going to be quite as hype as they were in Austin. The Balance arc just ended, and fans are likely to focus their interest on whatever new characters spring forth in whatever arc becomes the next big one.

I didn't think the audience was that bad on the recording, in person it might have been too much I guess. All in all a good ep choc full of my favorite kinds of goofs.
