I'm trying to get him to apologize to McNally. I think that would be fun. Rather than staying out, your support would be appreciated, though I understand there is a tough MVP race going on. I apologize to you for not voting. Though you were a very visible (audible) part of the marathon, I think the other 4 played a huge part. There's no 'Kyle; in team. But damn, man, you almost make me question that.

You really should understand the links before you post them. Until you can prove that McNally's position is true or false, you cannot claim it is false. You should either drop a podcast that many listen to, or give up and apologize. I'm not saying he's right. I'm saying you have not proven he's wrong. Bitch. Oh, and no one else cares. Just you and me. Use whatever words you want. I'll let you know when you use them incorrectly. |

what the fuck is going on here.
1. it's very hard to fill air time 2. it's very hard to fill air time and have it be interesting and entertaining 3. it takes 22 hours and weekends to prepare for a 1-2 hour show every weekday, and that's only because Keith and Chemda are very good at what they do. 4. 60-90% of Keith and Chemda's job is not on air 5. during a marathon they get no sleep 6. during a marathon the guests get little sleep 7. during a marathon the guests take the role of host a lot 8. creating an environment or expecting the guests to become frequent hosts of the show is ridiculous for a plethora of reasons 9. there would be so much content created, that no one would have time to listen to it all and would therefore be a massive waste of effort. 10. MyButtPlug is a fucking moron and is completely and utterly illogical. it is not possible, probable, and absolutely not practical or reasonable for them to continuously broadcast.

Petek, i understand your anger toward a pink alcoholic buttplug, but arent you the same guy that had the audacity to call ME a robot because i post a lot. Let it go, buddy. McNally doesnt care about apologies. He's canadian, they dont have feelings.

Anyway, as to the question of whether doing a marathon podcast is hard: The answer is that everything is hard. Taking my experiences with KATG as an example, I've learned:
4 years ago: That doing 5 minutes of stand up is hard That doing a KATG-style boy girl show is very hard 3 years ago: That doing 30 minutes of stand up is almost impossibly hard. Dodging tampons also hard. 2 years ago: That video editing takes forever, and can be hard 1 year ago: That being on KATG and dealing with random opinions from people with abstract internet names is hard, for some fucking reason 2 days ago: That running KATG is much harder than being on it. Dealing with feedback, figuring out mic levels, keeping the conversation going, trying to figure out how to deal with an unexpectedly drunk guest -- all much harder than I expected. So, I think that sums it up. Everything, creative or technical, is at least a notch harder than it seems like it will be. Sorry that "a notch" isn't a very technical measurement. I hope that doesn't invalidate my informal study. Pretty much nobody got more than a few hours sleep at a time during that marathon. I think Keith said he totaled about 8 hours during the whole thing. We were all wiped by the end. Though I do think it'd be fun to keep going until someone died. |

Flame war much? I have to say that McNally, Matt B and Kyle did an exquisite job of keeping the podcast going - which i cannot thank them enough for.
Kudos to Keith and Chemda for pulling off another great fucking marathon - all the guests were excellent. So who's got problems with it? |

Keith and Chemda have been podcasting for FIVE YEARS. This is a full-time job for them, not a hobby. In that time, they have risen to the top of a sub-genre of radio that many people still have not even heard of, nevermind take seriously as a career. Very few people can do this as a career. In terms of a marathon, they did not start running in January and decide to do 26.2 miles two months later. They had to train, learn the techniques and oft overlooked details, and really plan to make it happen. They had to cater the event, schedule guests so the show doesn't go dead, remain topical and keep conversation flowing, and interact with a live audience the entire time. Really, if you think it's easy to do it for one day, or even one hour, I challenge you to prove it. And when you think "look, I did it for one hour, clearly 75 hours will be a piece of cake!", prove that too. Of course, you won't have an audience, and it won't matter anyway. |
