Hey, great podcast.
I don't get the criticism that Vangelus sounds too much like a "radio guy." WTF is wrong with that?? If anything that's value added. Makes the podcast sound all the more professional. Seriously, do you really want to listen to a podcast hosted by some guy that mumbles his words, stutters a lot, and speaks in a monotone?????
I'm a radio guy myself–worked in many markets–and when I did podcasts, it was MOST helpful.
Great job guys, but I do have to echo the volume issues. I know you'll be working on that for the next time. No problem here with the length. I was wondering when a GOOD TF podcast would be coming, and it looks like this is it. This is a TON better than TFWire, which annoys me to no end.
Oh…how come the podcast shows up in my playlist as "Carolyn Reed – Love Found Me"??

Yes! Finally TFW has its own podcast. Awesome work , guys.
I had fun listening to it.

finally got to actually listen to it. I thought it was pretty good. I enjoyed it. I while the beginning was long, I expected it to be that way since it was the first one, so it did not bother me at all. I thought the editing was done really well, too. Kudos! guys.

Great job with the Podcast. There was a few spots in it that made me LoL.

I listened to it at work last night, very enjoyable! the sound was fine for the first half or so, then the volume started getting screwy. Also the intros seemed pretty unprepared- assuming you do a quick "hi this is" for each person on subsequent episodes, try having it pre-planned. Eg "this is Scrubs McGee, he's a ____ forum mod and general pain in the ass." Some of the side-tracking (coffee/donuts) was great. I think on some topics (the MP Magnus bit for one) you guys could do a little more, like opposite viewpoints. In that case, people in favor of white primes. Also it felt a bit like speaking time kind of lopsided. Granted one person generally hosts or w/e, but maybe try to balance the speaking time a bit. Like if one person hasn't spoken much in a few minutes direct a question towards them. But yeah, overall it was a hoot. Looking forward to the next one!

Listening now……You guys are making me want to go to Wal-Mart and waste my entire paycheck.

I liked the podcast, and I had no problems with the length (as I often listen to podcasts on my way to and from work in the car). The show did have a direction problem, but this is understandable as it's both the 1st episode and a lot of things were being introduced. So really, it's a non-issue that won't be a problem in the future. The same goes with the audio quality.
My only personal regret is that I didn't volunteer to get in on this either, as I would've loved to have done a podcast. It's just Thursdays (or any day during the work week for that matter) is just a bad record time for me.
All in all, a great enjoyable show, and I look forward to more!

Awesome job guys, can't wait to see what it turns into once every body gets into the swing of things!
The "Radio Guy Voice" kinda threw me off at first, but after the first 15 min or so it's not quite so prevalent especially once they get into an actual conversation and he's not just announcing stuffs.
Gave ya an iTunes review, BTW

You all sound ******ed…
… j/k. But enough about you idiots, wassup with that intro… that was hotter than Buzzbeak in a speedo…

While it was funny, I can see where some people looking for Transformers information in a Transformers Podcast might think that went on a bit long. It's the only point in the entire podcast where I started looking at the time and wondering if things were going to pick back up.

I haven't been fortunate enough to get to listen to this yet, but I must say I think its pretty sweet that we are getting to have this finally. A great addition to our already content-rich site!
General Tekno
Oh – the donut/coffee talk was hilarious.
General Tekno
Excellent job indeed, Vangelus and the rest of you guys!
Seth Buzzard
Personally I love Vangelus’s voice. Just so I don’t sound like to much of a cheer leader on this I do think some of the doughnut and coffee talk could have been clipped. When we where recording I thought a lot if not all of it would be clipped so I didn’t see any harm in rambling on as I did. Also I hope we just intro the people on that episode after this, while listening I was worried some people might not under stand the last 3 guys where not going to be on the rest of the episode.
I totally agree.

GodDog, you got your shiny new Iphone just in time for this. I'm grabbing mine from Itunes now, and I already subscribed.
Necrophon
I liked it, good job guys.
knook
I might as well listen to it again
GogDog
Thanks for all the feedback, and for those of you who liked it: good. It will get better as we figure out what in the hell we are doing.
Magnimus
I loved it. You guys kept me laughing on the bus today. The dynamic between all of you was very entertaining.
Vangelus, you have a voice MADE for broadcasting.
Dreweido
yeah just wait til the 8 minutes of intro filler are cut out… it'll be like a different world
