I've listened to this whole podcast and I love it, am now the proud owner of a Con Pepe/Con Carne T-Shirt, and to comment on the latest episode I will never not find Branson doing a comedy French accent funny.

Also the music choices in this show are A+ and have me listening to more romantic composers.

Hey, we’re moving the plot forward, nice.

If you have to dump exposition it doesn’t hurt to use the Looney Tunes Peter Lorre voice of the Anatomies brothers.

How has this pee pee doo doo podcast made me tear up (Ivan), feel for a giant idiot bully (see above), and, at other times, actually shudder??? Like maybe I'm a baby (heh) but the descriptions of for example Kebin and Legion definitely got to me.

Looney Tunes and body horror seem to be two of the main ingredients in Branson Reese's personality.

The recent reveals that Tim Platt mostly never learned how to play D&D and just improvs a bird and rolls dice when they tell him to explains so much.

Bellow pulling a classic Captain Kirk move on Ordelia.

Stirfry's speech being technically a curse feels like a joke from the rest of the cast getting annoyed with Tim's rambling. I would of course die kill for him, but him losing his speech power feels like Branson demanding a reprieve.

Did they go back to in-person recording? I feel like there was a lot more of the rest of the cast reacting to what others were doing, especially Carly laughing/cheering/gasping (which is delightful).

I love this show's music choices but watching Legion has ruined Bolero in anything else for me.

This was a fun experiment and dang the performers were working hard at the setup, but it's pretty confusing as a listener. They weren't consistent about whether names referred to bodies or minds and I kept having to stop to figure out what was happening.

I did enjoy that apparently the only person it's actually enjoyable to be is Bellow.

Catching up on OTTSOS and I think it might just need tighter editing. These are all funny people of course, but it's got a lot more of the cast laughing at each other than Rude Tales and these pastiches of 45 minute Star Trek episodes are stretched out to 90.

That said, the Gamesters of Triskelion one made me laugh a lot.

Rude Tales is a lot tighter, either through Branson's DMing or Taylor's editing. Joe lets his cast gently caress around a lot more and keeps it in the final edit so it's a different feel. Some of that is supposed to feel like the cold open/act 1 of a Star Trek episode before the plot kicks in, I guess.
