Funny, I was just wondering today how he was doing.

thread title needs an edit,

this is episode 333

also I'm liking the show so far and especially the longer length

also 4th?

Top 5.

FFS You could have claimed frist for the 333rd episode cos it it was posted as the 332 episode.

Also 3rd could have claimed 3 cubed which would be lots and way better.

(Watching Trailer Boys on Netflix for the 1st time and drinking beer)

downloading it right now.
Hope there's a "thanks elbuennico for the ringtone" in the podcast

Looking forward to the show. It's really rounding out nicely the last couple of episodes as you guys come into your own identity. I'm excited to see where you take the show!

putting that in the notes for next week!

Yay- bubble

hahahaha

hope someone finally told you how to set up your phone.

going to bed, can't wait to hear the show

You obviously can wait to hear the show, or else you wouldn't be going to bed.

IN BED listening to it

like many others I guess.

Editing out bad language?? Please dont even consider it, sure more would stop listening than would start to listen.

Its part of expressing and creates less formal, friendlier and casual atmosphere. Even though I rarely use bad language myself, its not disturbing at all. Of course there are international differences, in The Netherlands for example nothing gets beeped out, ever.

I love this show

Good show guys. Even the Pokerstars guy wasn't as annoying as the other ones.

I agree with this. One option could be to publish 2 versions of the show each week - the current version and an edited version. Maybe the edited version gets published a day(?) later to account for editing time.

if you went down the road of having Ross editing out all the swearing could you at least have the uncensored version still to be able to download. You could compare traffic then and see for sure which is more popular and if numbers go up etc

edit: the guy above me said pretty much this :/

Besides the achilles and thumb injury, I think Anthony Kim's injury to his liver has something to do with his not returning to the PGA Tour as well.

As far as editing the show, I vote for leaving it as is. There isn't a lot of swearing to begin with, it makes for more work for the guys, its an adult podcast and I doubt the show is losing any listeners because of it.

Re: editing; is it worse having grandma hear the word $#!+, which would be edited out (and which she probably uses from time to time), or titties, which is used in show promos and references to strip joints, and likely wouldn't be edited out (and no ones grandma ever used that word!)?

Those damn kids with their Walkmans and Kangol caps!

In the lobby, there is no tournament, it will be canceled?

Given that the story involved Harrington on Hold 'Em and a French guard with an itchy trigger finger, I kept waiting for the cheap joke about Padraig Parkinson being under the gun.
