I'd be all in for a full-fledged Drew vs. Austin series.

Also, holy shit did the comments on that quick look page go exactly where you'd expect. It's not a true comments section until you get to the accusation of Austin being anti-Israel.
I mean it would explain why Austin is so mean to Jeff Bakalar

The “business” end of this thing is pretty simple, really. We want to put the best, most popular thing we do in more places and expose more people to it.

It’s a good show, it’s real big. Bigger than it’s ever been, actually. People should listen to it. I want to continue taking over the world with this thing. There seems to be a big and growing audience for podcasts on YouTube and other video-based outlets (stuff like YouTube Red and their music-focused endeavors seem to lean in our favor on this stuff, too), so we’re going to put the show there and put it in front of more people. Originally I thought about just running a black screen or a logo as the video, but that’s shitty. We can do better than that. So we’re putting cameras up in there.

Dan is overdoing this "Pocket Card Jockey is complicated" thing on the QL/Bombcast. Felt like I had a pretty good grasp on everything that was going on after about an hour.

Brad killed Thanos.

IT IS TOO LATE, I HAVE SEEN EVERYTHING.


I'm looking at buying a Vietnam-era Tesla E88CC tube from Lithuania. This hobby is fucking crazy and I love it. Drew would be into this shit!

Well, as long as you were warned. Just make sure that the chase doesn't become the focus instead of a means to the end. I've seen people who just keep cycling through $1k+ products at an alarming rate.

So with live bombcasts, do we now have to spoiler bombcast discussion before wide release?

I don't care much about the potential spoilers since this is already the case right now since not everybody listen to it the moment it goes up.

What really worries me is that they will do stuff for the cameras that won't work on the audio version. I'm sure they'll be careful about that but in the end I think that it's inevitable. That fucking sucks.

Suddenly feels like people who can't watch it on video are missing out on content and that's not fun.

I can totally see how that could happen. Been on a lot of forums today, and I see people buying $500 headphones even though they already own multiple $1500+ headphones just so they can check them out. That's insane.

With stuff like this I generally have a very fiery interest for a short time, then settle in and upgrade far more moderately over the long term. I had to get an aftermarket tube though, if only to give me a better understanding of how they can vary.

Calling out Dan's small bladder shows favoritism toward Brad. I suspect Dan's crippling soda addiction has more to do with it in his case.

Also, ads on the premium live feed confirmed. Can't wait for the faux outrage.

YOU PROMISED US NO ADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah, there`s gonna be some of that, heh.

But that all sounds good to me.

Jeff has previously talked about that as a potential problem with video podcasts, and I believe he`s said that that`s why he`s been sceptical about it in the past. So rest assured that they`re aware of it which will probably minimize the problem.

As someone who collects guitar shit, tubes are a dangerous road to go down... Make sure to change them out every year or so! They do go bad.

If they still use the big mics and pop screens it will limit the interaction for the cameras.
