...but it's been in the back of my mind for a long time how much effort should be required for Dave's side of the podcast, how clearly Dave hasn't been the one doing that work since he never makes a big deal out of it, and how he almost never speaks a word about who actually is responsible for it, which has had me worried this would happen for a while. It's real unfortunate, and I don't think there even is a good way to make it right, not that they're even trying, but I am gonna keep listening to the show against Dave's childish wishes. I'm just going to feel dirty about it.

This.

I love the podcast, but goddamn is Dave being a loving petulant teen about it. Cite, give credit, ask to do so if possible. Reading a wiki is not the same as a sourced, well written narrative.

If he read most of an episode from Hardcore History and then just riffed on it, nobody would argue that Dan Carlin's engaging writing had nothing to do with that.

Still gonna listen, just pointing that out.

...would all you guys who never posted in here before the drama kindly grab your outrage and gently caress off again?

Nobody was outraged, it's not your thread, go gently caress yourself.

Dave addresses the source / DI thing in the new episode, albeit reluctantly remorseful.

His goblin impressions make up for it.

The Dollop is easy to enjoy if you've never thought of Dave as anything other than a dumb oaf. Audio problems and failure to understand fair use barely even register as issues.

He got a real pass on that, even after the awful 'Can't copyright history' defense. Deleting the last episode is just hilariously thin-skinned, however.

Yeah, how does anybody not know? It's like 7th grade psychology.
