Listening to this weeks episode, I really do think it is my favorite podcast. I like that they do go off topic about stuff once in a while. I think podcasts that don't can get a bit monotonous after a while.

Hipster Chloe Bananas

DAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

So does Will take Chloe with him to work everyday or just some days? Man I wish my dog was 1/10th as well behaved as Chloe, I'm always surprised when 2 hours into a podcast she barks

I genuinely liked the first one. After that they are terrible. Martin is a very bad writer. I don't care what the consensus says. The consensus liked According to Jim.
I dont understand how you can finish a book and wait a couple of years and release a book that takes place parallel to the ending of the previous book. Just throw that shit in previous book.

Sorry for the derail but, a fucking love corgis.

I read all the books last summer. I laughed my ass off when I got to the end of the 4th one and it had that "the next book will be done in a few months, thanks for your patience" note.

You really don't understand how writing works. :p

To be fair, neither does George R.R. Martin.

I was really disappointed by the revelation that Will has restricted the amount of coffee content on the site. I was absolutely loving the coverage and it got me to purchase both an AeroPress and a Tody cold filter system. The coverage is awesome and something that you really don't see anywhere else (not with this sort of production value anyway).

I think those sorts of features are what make the Whiskey Media sites special. They feature personality and let the "talent" make content about what they are passionate. Often times this is related to the focus of the site, sometimes it isn't and we get videos about disgusting Swedish candies and glorious breakthroughs in coffee technology.

I like Will cuz he seems to be the only open minded one. They were talking about that stupid smart watch and norm said he would only be interested if it was from apple even though it was exactly what he was looking for. Smh

To be fair, i think he would of been more open to that if it actually worked with the iPhone.

Did you change your point? You said he didn't like it because it wasn't made by apple. I said the manufacturer didn't matter, he just wants something to work with the iPhone. A watch working with a phone he doenst own doesn't help him.

Awesome thread! I was trying out making weekly podcast threads, but they weren't really getting any traction.

Subscribed!

Also, I want more video's of Will taking apart/repairing stuff. One of my favorite videos is of him repairing Sara's cracked iPhone.

First GAF rejected Vinny and now Will Smith?

On the subject : I really like this is only a test, I don't care that much about phones, tablets and what not but I still enjoy listening.

I don't care enough to go around trying to defend them like some crazed fanboy, especially if they release actual crap products, but I can't deny my softspot for them. It would just be difficult listening to a pod cast knowing that one of the people talking had some nutty agenda against them.

Exactly.

If you have irrational feelings about specific brands your feelings will probably be hurt when said company releases a shitty product.

I think Sony fucks up a lot of stuff but I don't hate them. I own a bunch of Sony stuff. The douchebag part is true though.

Ya, but to me that is "Playstation." Sony is the electronics stuff, especially in this context.

The only thing these guys have an agenda against is Barnes and Noble.

Damn that's messed up but somewhat accurate. Not sure if Gary is skinny enough yet for frosted tips though. Plaid okay but trips to the salon to get his color treatment touched up would be too much.
