Omi no Kami posted:So I tried listening to CSB after taking a break, and is it just me or does Woolie sound miserable these days? It felt like half the podcast was him interrupting Pat to railroad towards the next FGC thing, and the rest was heavy sighs and rambling, incoherent variations on 'Yeah, so, uh, you know what I mean, anyway *sigh*". It bums me out, especially since the pre-breakup podcast had a really wonderful blend of neurotic ticks, bizarre tangents, and genuinely interesting takes that I haven't really found an equivalent for. i just finished the latest podcast and i have no idea where you got any of this from unless you're just one of those people who goes 'ughhh' whenever they talk about FGC anything, they were both pretty high energy the whole time

They're both really bad at getting a sensible amount of sleep at a reasonable time and Pat bounces back quicker on energy drinks than Woolie does. They've talked about it before, Woolie only really starts waking up about ten seconds before they go live.

As much as I like Chewie and Fuckface, they desperately need a third to round them out. I gave up listening to CSB earlier this year due to how repetitious their shtick is. Five hour podcasts with only two people for months on end without any guests is just tiresome in my opinion.

During the FFXIV Bozjan Southern Front stream someone asked Pat why he wasn't funny like he was in that stream but on the podcast instead and his response was "You try being funny when dealing with someone who keeps talking about how good a King of Fighters UI is. No one can be funny in that environment."

Woolie is a loving saint for putting up with pat's inanities so maybe let him talk about King of Fighter's UI for a little bit.

Hard to get people to agree to a 4 hour podcast where at least half of that time will be spent talking about poo poo they've never heard of and/or probably don't care about. That and all the people they know who would be up for that have their own podcasts now.

Iirc they usually just recorded the guest bits separately and tacked them onto the end of a normal-ish length podcast. Could be misremembering though. It would be nice if they could get a rotating chair in from time to time, but the existing chemistry is good enough for me.

They did that one or two times I think but usually the guest would sit in for the whole podcast

Flashbacks to when they somehow got Xavier Woods on the podcast and he spent most of it quiet as heck, and then at the very end finally realized Woolie was black. EDIT: And in trying to google that episode of the podcast, I discover that Woolie kicked Woods' rear end at Teppen last year. https://twitter.com/WoolieWoolz/status/1204516582736760832?s=20 Vandar fucked around with this message at 20:28 on Oct 18, 2020 |

aside from plague or extremely in-industry guys they just don't know how to work with guests. i get the feeling they don't listen to a lot of podcasts that get guests and stuff on their own time so they're just kind of expecting to do what they do and the guest will fit themselves in

it needs to be someone they can actually bounce off of and have a discussion with, not some celebrity rando like tierzoo SEW or plague or max or someone like that would be fine I think, but like, some twitter or youtube celeb they like the content of but have never spoken to before? nah

TierZoo wasn't a random e-celeb, he got explicitly boosted by Pat and the Best Friends subreddit early on in his channel.

Woolie's bit is hilarious, but man the vtuber fad is creepy as hell. Those barely animated faces are super unsettling. Also aren't there actual companies managing those people? I can't imagine anything good coming out of that.

Some work for companies but not all ("vtuber" just means streaming with an avatar in place of a facecam and/or your actual identity after all). One of the major ones isn't good but it's largely because they're too hands-off and don't handle things like copyright clearance or harassment properly despite collecting half of people's income. also as far as I know it's all using Live2D, which I guess I'm used to from being used in videogames, but it just looks kinda paper-doll-ish to me at worst

I was a bit iffy on the Vtuber thing initially but Korone completely won me over with her doom 2016 playthrough, and the English Vtubers are all great too. The models can be a bit hosed up, sure, but they're improving over time. And yeah, it's an idol sort of thing, but uh, they are very very verrrrrry much not idol-like in their words and actions.

Throw Clemps at the podcast, that’d be fun. Captain Invictus posted:I more mean they shouldn't have people they don't regularly interact with on the podcast. people like plague and eyepatchwolf have a grasp of how overbearing and fast-paced talking with pat and woolie are, and know to butt in, while folks like tierzoo just get steamrolled by them. The Megaman Legends music is a personal attack. Good to know someone over there remember those games.
