The holiday foods draft they did with Nick Offerman, Brandon McCarthy, Alan Sepinwall, Mike Dicenzo, Linda Holmes and Megan Amram by proxy in December was one of the funniest things I listened to all year. Brandon McCarthy got things derailed immediately by selecting Duck l'orange first overall and Schur has a massive hissy fit about potatoes. Well I might have to check it out. The episodes got so sporadic that I guess I unsubscribed.

Unnamed Sports Blog was a Good Blog. I'm glad it's staying up for now, though.

The illustration of the Chiefs trick play on 4th and 1 in their first TD drive (where the whole backfield did a 360) was hilarious.

Nothing eats orcas. Canucks were canny in getting themselves an apex predator. Unlike Nashville, which got themselves non-differentiated ones.

NHL Apex predators Canucks (orcas) Bruins (ursus arctos horribilis) Preds (smilodon fatalis) Kings (l'etat c'est moi) Devils (prey on mankinds' souls) Panthers don't get in, they're occasionally eaten by lions and tigers.

That's true about the Wild, but those apex predators make up a vanishingly small part of the whole. Like, fractions of a percent. The Wild is mostly, like, lichen.

And I'm sure an orca (Canuck) wouldn't have any trouble with a wee little Cartilaginous fish, regardless of how mant layers of teeth it has. Also I'd like to submit Rangers for consideration; Rangers almost always have guns, and therefore can kill anything. Case closed.

So will it be exclusive to Spotify Making your podcast platform exclusive seems like a woefully bad idea but what do I know. euphronius fucked around with this message at 14:58 on Feb 5, 2020 |

They keep doing cool sounding limited pods that require me to pay for Luminary so this is preferable to me. But I hope it doesnt mean anything bad for the writers.

MourningView posted:The other podcast networks they've bought haven't been that article posted:Spotify hasnt spelled out what it intends to do with The Ringers catalog of existing podcasts and content, but it would be surprising if it made them exclusive to the streaming platform. When it purchased Gimlet Media last year, it kept that podcast companys stuff available on all platforms. My guess: The weekly Bill-free-associates-about-things with one of his employees (or college friends, or relatives) podcast will continue to be free, while ones where Bill talks to a famous athlete and other special Bill projects will be paywalled (if they had done this deal a year ago, I'd bet The Book Of Basketball 2.0 would be paid-tier). If you're a real Simmons-head and you need to hear his thoughts about everything, you'll bone out for the paid tier (and the paid tier will be mercilessly plugged during his free-tier podcasts).
