Yes, episode number 33 of our podcast is now up for download over at WoW Radio, and if you're a big fan of the show, it's a doozy. Since we haven't done our "normal" show in a few weeks (because of the interview with Xzin last time around), we decided to go all fan service, and caught up on all the shout-outs, fan email, and other fan shenanigans we usually do (there's even some Turpster love poetry). But even if you're not down with the silliness, there's lots of good WoW news in this week's episode, including:- Some good discussion about the Wrath alpha news and what it means
- A look at what's going down on Sunwell Plateau, including the Aldor and Scyer neckpieces
- And a little bit about the Gurubashi Arena in STV
- Plus we answer all kinds of email questions, including rested XP in expansions, what's wrong with Blackout in a shadow priest spec, and whether we should call the new five man MrT or MgT
And of course, you can always listen live -- we go live on the air every Saturday afternoon at 3:30pm EST over on WoW Radio. Tune in next Saturday and every Saturday for the WoW Insider Show -- it's just like this very site, except in audio form.

Really digging on the podcast all, keep up the good work. Besides The Instance yours is the only one I find produced well enough to listen to comfortably. That might not sound like much, but in the world of podcast it's really high praise.

Please oh please, keep the shoutouts and fanrequests to a minimum, there is nothing more boring then listening to a podcast bable on with names you never heard about for 5 min. Do my request and do a podcast/show worth listening to, that means: Talk about topics and info about wow, thats why I download this show, not to hear random player names from random servers.

You did read that this was a fan show right?
So rather than the bare minimum of shoutouts they do each week, it was alot from afew weeks at once, for this one time?

Me, as a fan, would like a proper show. Do something for ALL fans, not pleasing 1 fan at a time, for half the show. If you want to do GOOD fan service, do a excellent show that reflects the feedback given. Reading mail, sure good stuff, doing more of "funny" topics rather then deep topics about class balance, sure, even more so. But don't bore me with random names you can't pronounce from guild names you never heard about, that made me start fast forwarding making me think that perhaps this was a show worth dropping from my iTunes list.

And to answer, for about 50 or so of the wins back on Thunderlord before I transfered, I had another hunter help. Throughout all I have probably had 25-50 random pug help.
The rest are solo.
So note my hatred of all stealther classes.

'Grab your horde and fight the horde' is STUPID. STOP saying it. Who made this decision? Obviously someone who has horde mains and occasionally plays alliance. And obviously someone who thinks everyone melees. It would be very hard to come up with a worse slogan. It's bad.. really, really bad.
So, the horde saying is "For the horde!".
And the allie saying is "..Fight the horde!"
Little stuck on the horde, aren't we? How about not mentioning the other faction (and not even our own) in our supposed slogan.
Not that WoWInsider proclaiming it's our slogan has mattered.. no one says it cus it sounds stupid and they'd be laughed at if they ever did, after an appropriately uncomfortable pause.
