Somehow, our good friend Turpster
has scammed his way was invited on to another podcast, Patrick and Shawn from
How I WoW -- a podcast that interviews "interesting people from all walks of life" -- wrangled him into their virtual studio for a long chat about what he's working lately, including
our little show, his work with
Turpstervision,
his musical makings, and his upcoming movie and book,
Why I Are teh Best (strangely, they didn't touch on his new fashion line, but that's not coming out 'till the fall anyway). It's a long podcast, and they hit on all kinds of things (from the issues over
the leaked Wrath alpha to what kinds of games Turpster's girlfriend beats him at), so definitely give it a listen.
How I WoW (both Patrick and Shawn are regulars on
The Instance, another popular
WoW podcast) has been doing a lot of good stuff so far -- they chatted with our friend
Veronica Belmont a little while ago, as well as
Felicia Day from
The Guild, and they sat down with
Curt Schilling a while back to talk
Warcraft (and a little bit about the WoW Insider Show, I understand, even if not by name). They've offered a lot of fun indepth looks at people around the
WoW community, and not surprisingly, Turpster turns out to be no exception. It's definitely cool to get a look at the man behind the T.

Am I the only one who finds Turpster annoying? I mean, I guess it's not a bad thing, I'm sure everyone is annoying to someone, but I just don't get it.

You kidding? I can't stand the guy. What a bastard!

People either love or hate Turpster, I personally love him. :P
Nice episode Shawna nd Patrick keep up the good work.

I don't even know who the hell he is, even though I've asked easily a dozen times elsewhere on this site.

I, for one, would like to say that I think Turpster is amazing...
Very glad you enjoyed the show, I had a great time recording it with Shawn and Patrick (Even if Patrick did spend all of the pre-show hitting on me, was slightly uncomfortable) The fashion line has been held back, apparently it was too "Risqué" just having women wearing just a belt and shoes, still I have high hopes for it and will let you know as soon as I get the go ahead!

I Fucking Love Turpster with every Fibre in my body.
His humour is priceless and his personality is flawless.
He's always upbeat and I feel the other mono-tone radio people'z hold him back from his full potential.
We should stick him together on his own podcast with more vibrant ranting people.
Although don't get me wrong I subscribed to everyone WowRadio Podcast on Itunez and comment as well.. I'm just saying Turpster needs to be set Free!
I Love You TP
Your Lovingly

wtf is turpster, and wtf is he so popular on this site? What has he ever done?

Highly successful video podcast on Massively, regular host on the WoW Insider Show, graphics artist and host for WoW Radio, interviewed Mike Morhaine at Blizzcon, yeah.. pretty much can be dictionary defined as 'more famous than you'.
Mark Turpin Aug 16th 2008 3:28AM
Aww thanks TB, You are Teh Moar/Most Famous Tan Me!
Lemon Aug 16th 2008 11:28PM
right...would you believe me if I said I was Wolf Blitzer?

I loved the episode, Turpster was incredibly funny. I was one of the people that emailed them to tell them to get him on the show. But nooooooo we need curt schilling first....

Turpster is funny as hell.

"and they sat down with Curt Schilling a while back to talk Warcraft (and a little bit about the WoW Insider Show, I understand, even if not by name)"
You really do hate the fact that Curt Shilling is a semi regular on The Instance and not the WoWInsider show don't you? :P
TotalBiscuit Aug 16th 2008 11:20AM
Who? We all know Turpster's the big name around here.
