If you are not subscribed then then you would have to get them individually. To be fair I was a little confused by this as well because I forgot being subscribed was even a thing after HAVING BEEN SUBSCRIBED FOR TEN YEARS THANK YOU.

They're saying if you are not subscribed and you would typically go get a podcast episode every day and download it manually from iTunes or whatever then You won't know that they're putting out ten billion shows this month bc you would still assume they're doing five a week. In that case you would miss episodes not knowing they exist.

Ahem. *bows*

Mostly correct... (did I say I'm a Quality Manager...) They are not making extra shows necessarily (today's show not included). Unless you are VIP you will not be able to see more than 10 shows. So if you are used to going in daily and downloading a show if they do a dump on Monday for 5 shows it will straight away push out 5 shows from the availability list where normally if you were behind on shows you would have a week to catch up.

Now why you wouldn't already have them downloaded... That might qualify as a "mistake" even by Keith's standards.

Also, why wouldn't you be subscribed! This makes no sense to me, you would have to be one major non-committed fuck to not be subscribed. SUBSCRIBE, make YOUR life easier. Someone who is not subscribed please explain to my why you would live your life like that? Do you just love living in chaos? Are you the Joker in real life?

AND go VIP, how many free months of VIP have to be offered to you that you are not a VIP even just for a month do it! You wont regret it. Unless you will regret listening to thought full interviews by Chemda in What's My Name! or hilarious drunken interviews in My Name is Keith! just to name two of the great shows in VIP that would keep you entertained. Back shows of Myka's show or Bottom 10 tings., would you like to hang out with Myq Kaplan Do you hate entertainment? Do you hate laughter? I get maybe not affording it, I've been there but they have made many free month VIP offers. You will get sucked in an love it. Just do it.

CHEMDA: I don't know.

Do you think a person that raped someone in the past is completely unredeemable? I haven't raped anyone, but I did some stupid shit in college (15 years ago) including cheating on multiple girlfriends.

But I'm a completely different person than I was in college. I've learned from my mistakes, I changed who I am and how I act, and like Emma said, I try to be the best person I can be every day.

I don't feel like my actions in college even closely define who I am now. But maybe they do, and I'm still an asshole.

We gotta hear this stupid shit you did in college if it can be compared to rapes.

No, I did nothing compared to rape. I can't remember now, but I probably got too drunk and touched people inappropriately. I was stupid when I was 21. But my question isn't necessarily about me though.

I feel like I want to ask, "Should a person be punished for something they did so long ago?" And in my head, the answer is... yeah, they should because they did it. But then I flip-flop back and forth because I know people change and mature.

If someone came to me now and said, "You touched my tits in a bar in college and that sucked." I'd probably say, "Yeah.. that sucks and I'm sorry, but I'm a completely different person now." Should I be punished for it 15 years later? I don't know. I don't know if there's a moral statute of limitations.

And this is why I love KATG. You guys force me to think about things that I normally don't put too much thought into. It helps me grow.

Ok ok... I wouldn't actually say that last part. I would apologize profusely though.

Jesus Christ these people answering the poll are idiots. Keith, we need a new idiot proof poll.

It should say something like "shows will continue being recorded on the same day and time. I prefer you to...

- let me download them immediately
- withhold them from me a few days so they come out exactly one show per weekday.
- I'm an Asshole and an idiot and you should ignore me."

I much prefer the immediate release method. It means there is less delay between when the show is recorded and when we get to hear them which means the topics are not as stale.

The only valid reason for not liking immediate release is if you don't have enough self control to pace yourself and listen to two in one day and then get sad the next day when you don't have one to listen to.

I hope Keith and Chemda decide to keep this new method and if they don't, they create a new VIP option to get them immediately. Same goes for VIP shows (within reason - I don't need 100 Myq Kaplan shows all at once).

in the end it didn't really bug me because I'm short on time and so i spaced out listening to the eps as if they came out normally (infact, I'm still listening to the last two). But what I don't like is feeling behind on discussions in the forums. Everyone's all moved on and topics are 4 pages deep by the time I get there. So I voted for the old way <3
