The Breen! Damn, I forgot about them... I could only think of the Jem'hadar. Need to rewatch DS9 when it hits Netflix streaming in a few months.

 

Hey guys, just thought I might ask again if someone could point me in the direction of a link to the Translated Article of an interview with the Takara Engineers that you were discussing, please?  

 

good thing I got the Voyager instead of Leader  

 

Not so much that Star Trek is so much better. But more I dislike the OT in general and really think a lot of the stuff associated with Jabba is crap.

Speaking for myself, I'd have no problem at all just getting a barebones podcast from WTF. While it must certainly be handy for people to skip to areas they're interested in hearing about in the show, there are many, many podcasts that don't bother with breaking the podcasts up by subject matter that are doing just fine. As long as you guys are talking about the latest happenings in this silly hobby, I'm happy. You could easily get away with avoiding the fancier bit of editing and just throw the opening theme at the beginning, and the closing theme at the end, and be done. Sure, some might complain, but they'll either get used to it, or move on. You'd still hold onto the majority of fans, and wouldn't have to devote so much time to it.

I'm not saying get rid of the topic segments, by the way. I'm just talking about not physically dividing up the episode into parts so listeners can hit the "next" button when they don't want to hear "Listener Questions" or what have you. Heck, maybe with a simplified version, someone else can do the editing instead of Vangelus so he can have a little less to worry about.

Just food for thought from the perspective of someone you don't know.   I'm a huge fan of the podcast, keep up the great work!

 

Cheers mate, Ms Pond looks particularly good in that sig of yours by the way.   

 

Thanks for asking my question! My "hefty landline click", as you call it inspired the title of my Tumblr. XD

 

First, I'm finally on the WTF@TFW Podcast wagon and I love it. I've always listened to tidbits, but I'm fully on board now. Awesome stuff.

Anyways, just wanted to throw in my two cents and couldn't agree more with the disappointment directed towards Leader Ironhide. Definitely my least favorite Leader class toy.

 

I notice the podcast seems to be coming out later then normal. Sadly the last few times it has been posted the "news" was a bit dated mainly speaking about the Jason Statham talk. I love the pod cast but if it takes over a week to get the podcast out maybe the editing needs to be stream line or maybe vang could use some help.

 

Ah, gotcha, I didn't realize that was a big part of it. That's a bummer. Guess it's a testament to how well done this show is when I never realized there were any lag problems. Well, whenever the podcast comes out is whenever it comes out. Thanks again for putting on a great show!

 

Maybe I could make a suggestion for the podcast:

Maybe since you've just about hit the 3 year mark, you could restructure it. Make it once every two weeks. Or just take a break for a few months. Keep doing Primetime so you can stay current with that, but either slow down or just stop the main podcast for a bit.

That way you guys can all get a chance to take a break, Vangelus has less work for a bit, etc.

I think with one every two weeks you could still enjoy doing it, still deliver to us, and have less stress.

 

That's not going to solve any problems except to make shows come out less often.  

Don't misunderstand, there is no real issue except for the occasional busy times. I'm pretty sure I speak for everyone when I say we are happy with the way things are. Other than some minor occasional tweaks, nothing is going to change unless we get inspired.

 

Hey Seth, Sky Gary is not the only Transformer with a regular person's name.

I believe it was the issue where Wheelie and Daniel were killed and Arcee went all dark and angry IIRC.

Yeah so was I, to the point where I had bought two to take advantage of the BOGO 50% off sale at TRU. However after I opened one, I came to the same conclusion as GogDog and returned them both:

I forget who said this would make a good voyager, perhaps it was GogDog, but I think it would make a much better deluxe than a voyager. The spinny cannon just hindered the design way too much IMO. Overall Leader Ironhide reminds me too much of Ultimate Bumblebee, I guess I'll stick with Recon Ironhide instead.
