So what do you figure them doing the surprise dump of weekly TAZ is a make good of sorts for the tour thing?

Twice the ad revenue in a month where they took a hit of a canceled tour, perhaps. Or maybe they're having enough fun recording or it's going quicker than they thought, etc.

Words cannot describe what a disaster the pie was.
How is the new show? I haven’t really enjoyed a any of their D&D since the adventure zone, I listened to the first pre episode and it was a bit too behind the scenes for me.

I'm enjoying it so far. The world building episodes are definitely not for everyone, but I enjoyed them. Now that they're into the game, it's working pretty well. 5e is still not the best system for the kind of show they're trying to make, but it's the system everyone's familiar with, so whatever.

The ship combat system Griffin made seems super cool so far, just enough mechanics to feel like there's stakes, but enough room for roleplay.

At this point I can't imagine how anyone listens at 1x. Depending on which pod I'm listening to it's gotta be at least 1.2, maybe even 1.5 for some of the more poorly edited/low energy ones.

Overcast will dynamically cut out silences/breaks so there is no need for that sort of business. I’ve apparently “saved” 330 hours at this point.


Now if you’re doing a video course or whatever that’s another matter entirely.

i accidentally listened to a podcast with that kind of "silence editing" and it was loving torturous, i don't know what kind of lives you people are leading where you're like "i need this podcast i'm listening to to end as quickly as possible to get on to the next one that i also need to end as quickly as possible"

I don't listen to podcasts fast but I do read fast, so if anyone watches me play, like, a JRPG or something, they get very frustrated because i'm quickly going through dialog boxes and they can't follow along

But I'm not doing it to speedrun, I just... read fast

I've tried watching anime at 1.15x speed and it can make some of the animation look a little odd at times even though you'd think anime would be best suited for it (often being animated at one drawing every 6/8 frames). i wouldn't bother with podcasts.. especially going above 1.2x? It'll cause words to crunch together and phonemes to get lost/blurred

i understand the compulsion (wanting to binge something but you have limited time) but it seems like a worse experience

If you can increase the jokes per minute (JPM) by cutting extraneous silences you’re objectively making the podcast funnier. It’s just science!
