Really enjoyed the show this week. Maybe it is because I'm a bit behind, but the more often but shorter shows don't really make a lot of difference. If you want to listen to a longer one, just save up a couple. If it is more convenient for you guys to do 1-1.5 hour shows and do them more often, will listen however you do it.
Watching 2M2M, who'd have guessed that Dani would be the end boss of that group? Guess that's what reality TV buys you. Nice interview.
Think it was in this episode but maybe the last one, you had a guy ask about Mississippi straddles. You guys missed what I think as a key element, namely that he's under-rolled. While I agree that giving the illusion of action is important to getting invited back to a home/private game, voluntarily increasing close spots in a big bet game could be a big danger to someone who is tight on money and can't easily replace a lost roll. Even if the straddle is a little +EV from the BTN, he's going to find himself priced into playing for stacks with hands he's not comfortable playing with money he can't really lose. In his spot, I'd plead being poor as the reason for not straddling and wait until comfortably rolled to do it. Learning to play close spots is good. Not being broke is better.

Also, any time the gang wants to spend talking about T's upcoming fight would be great. While I might be on the side of "I'm happy to listen to anything" rather than the "poker only, pls" group, hearing the inside tale of the upcoming fight is interesting.
