I love listening to your shows once I get home, but here at work I just get active content is disabled. I'll listen to it this evening, but between now and then I'll be thinking what I think every week - I wish your budget ran towards making transcripts, for poor office schlubs like me and for your hearing-disabled visitors.

Or for those who wish to never hear Rossi's voice, I don't want to ruin the image I have of him in my head. I fear he may have a weak/soft voice.. and that whole Legendary Warrior image will die if he does.
In my head Rossi speaks like Solid Snake from MGS >.> I'd like to keep it that way.

@ Pat
I don't think Mike Tyson's voice ever stopped him from beating people senseless. Oh, and SPOILER ALERT - Rossi just sounds like a normal guy...
...who will TANK. YOUR. FACE. OFF.

I've listented to the podcast and I can tell you it's safe.
Matt Rossi sounds just like Thrall (he used to write the shaman column, too). Mat McCurley, who writes about addons, sounds just like GLAdOS. That means Mike Sacco sounds like,... um,... Ghostcrawler, I guess, yeah.

I heard rossi once cleaved 3 orcs in half.
With his bare hand.
LB Jul 21st 2010 12:14PM
@Pyromelter
They weren't orcs, they were OGRES.
Rakah Jul 21st 2010 2:52PM
for the150th get mike and turp back as guests

Transcripts, or at least highlight transcripts would be awesome.
Chetti Jul 21st 2010 10:03AM
Ya know, I never realized they didn't have transcripts online. Cool idea though, having the text available for either a sneak peek or a refresher before the next ep. If they ever do a call-out for it, I'd do it. :)

I liked hearing Anne's take on Lore stuff in game the last few weeks but for 150 how about having Robin on the show if she has time. I see her hand in so many of the articles and the It Came from the Blog guild. I'm sure her presence and 2 cents would be a treat. I only started listening a few podcasts ago but I am here to stay. Thanks for such a long winded cast on all things WoW related. Better than any movie I've watched! Ok, maybe not but better than most, and keep up the great work guys.

They all sound like typical nerds to me, and i mean that in the nicest way ; ) Thankfully, I speak fluent nerd myself... so I can understand them *wipes brow*

Finally promoted McCurley to regular host I see. I kept wondering, it's like, how long dose a guy gotta sleep on your couch before you stop calling him a "visitor".
Pyromelter Jul 21st 2010 11:58AM
WTB Live Streams with chat channel again. Any chance of this happening in the near future?
Cataca Jul 21st 2010 12:43PM
no
Sarakin Jul 21st 2010 12:52PM
the show's gotten better since they stopped doing that. It worked for Mike and Turpster but for these guys this works way better.
Rakah Jul 21st 2010 2:53PM
Get mike and turp on as guests for the 150th. Maybe Totalbiscuit too.
Badger Jul 21st 2010 4:16PM
Totalbiscuit is a complete arse, no thanks.
prenden2 Jul 21st 2010 9:02PM
It would be pretty great to get Schramm and Turpster back on the show, though I think that would be more of a target for the 200th show.
Staraxe Jul 23rd 2010 9:16AM
Yeah, inviting them merely as guests would be really cool I think :) Although I dont know what on what terms they left :) I really like the new podcast and I really like the old podcast, so one fusion would be great, I think it would deffo be a great way to mark a milestone :D
Mike Jul 21st 2010 4:44PM
So will all of the episodes from now on have the Cataclysm spoiler warning?
