Does the Dollop take suggestions for future episodes? I'd love to hear their reaction to the Petticoat Affair, especially since Dave would have to throw in some Andrew Jackson insane back story to explain the thing.

Acebuckeye13 posted:I really enjoyed the most recent episode, which was about the infamous 1904 Olympic Games. I remember reading about them when I was a kid and getting blown away by how insane they were, and somehow they were even worse than I remembed them being. I was sad because I remembered it as either the sleepy Cuban or the guy who ran with dogs as actually winning the marathon.

The_Raven posted:The Dale was my pitch... Yes, you may all touch the hem of my garment, but one at a time please, no need to get all unseemly.  Dave's gonna block me for calling out his pronunciation, isn't he?

Would I be watching Hamilton with Dave, or just watching Dave watch Hamilton?

FlamingLiberal posted:That Linda Hazzard episode is a special kind of crazy, good lord It takes a real psycho to check in almost daily on the tens of people you're starving to death, just so you can give them painful enemas and roughly "massage" them. That's some high percentile evil for Nazis poo poo.

Offler posted:Unfun fact: Search engine optimization is the reason that porn parody titles are basically a lost art these days. Gone are the days of "Ferris Bueller Gets Off" and "Star Whores", these days it's all "Not The Office - an XXX Parody" and such. Another sacrifice to our algorithmic overlords. I feel like a purely benevolent algorithm, designed to simply provide things you might like, would develop in a less restrictive manner. However, since the goal isn't enjoyment but "engagement" everything is reduced down to trigger words.

It's of course a very light hearted romp about the police beating the unholy gently caress out of a man for speeding.

flesh dance posted:I can't remember any specific episodes, but they offhandedly mention the date they're recording a couple of times and it's 2021, when you notice it it's kinda weird Also certain comments will just be weird, unless they're from a while ago. Like in the recent episode with Al Madrigal when they seriously opened about crypto catching on.

The main audio issue with the West Wing Thing was that Josh absolutely refused to talk into his goddamn mike. Every time he spoke there was a 50% chance he was just going to slowly lean back into his chair, turn his head to look out the window, or some other sin against audio.

My issue with Past Times is that Gareth and the guest have a tendency to jump into an elaborate bit off the first quarter sentence, which usually makes them unable to follow the rest of the story because they've already committed to said bit.

Binowru posted:Speaking of bad audio: Anyone else listen to The Audit? It's probably the best podcast with the worst, most annoying loving theme I've ever heard. They even made a bonus, even more annoying theme for this season covering PragerU. The fact that it's mixed about 50% louder than the spoken parts is just gravy. On the plus side, the Lever seems to have at least managed to finally equalize the audio for Dave and whoever the guest is. Unfortunately Josh still finds a way to gently caress up his audio by both being way louder than everyone else and mumbling almost inaudibly in the same episode. Or my ears are just failing in Josh's particular register. I don't even know why Podcasts insist on having theme songs anyway, I can't think of any that I don't skip like a commercial.

The Muckrake with Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman I had it in my feed for a while after one of his West Wing Thing appearances. It was decent, but I just didn't have time with everything else in my feed. The free version is one episode that's basically the first 20 minutes of their Patreon episode, followed by an hour or so long episode later in the week.

CRIP EATIN BREAD posted:i introduced the dollop to a friend and she liked the first like, 30 episodes, and so when she saw that they were coming to town, we all went and saw them. You really should have warned her that she probably wasn't going to hear some wacky baseball history.

I don't know how you can listen to The Dollop and not assume Dave must be absolutely insufferable in any other format.

Normally I'm fine with Dave's refusal to figure out how to pronounce names before taping. But Jesus Christ every pained misutterance of Mosaddegh in the Operation Ajax episode was painful.
