Usually when I start listening to a podcast and after I have listened to like 3 episodes, I usually hang with it. What are some that you just up and quit, and why? I guess I am just wondering what things you will just wait/listen out and on the other side of the coin, what makes you just throw up your hands and walk away?

This podcast, I loved beginning with the first episodes, continued to enjoy their discussions with 1UpYours. But when they were between names/moving to 4Guys1Up there was this segment I remember with that Christian Nutt guy and his personality and just general way of discussion things became almost to the point where it was like 2 guys arguing in an EB games annoying and that is when I ended my relationship with 1Up podcasts. And I was so reluctant to make such a rash decision after Legendary, 1UpFM, Brodeo(favorite), Broken Pixels and Retronauts. Like the stuff with Shane and Luke never really got to me, but I just became so disinterested in it. I tried to come back like 2 weeks ago and it is still the same...

Ok, so this was actually why I made the thread, seeing the Euro price drop of the 360 120GB HDD. So I started listening before the 360 launched and generally enjoyed the show. For working for MS, Larry was not very pushy with the whole agenda thing. Fast forward when they released the 120 GB HDD for something like $160 or $180 US Dollars which was crazy, even at that time, you could get laptop drives for under $100. But then when Larry addressed the issue on his podcast and defended Microsoft as doing nothing wrong or making a significant profit on the sale of the HDD for almost as much as a standalone 360 arcade unit, I just up and quit. That is when agenda went to far and I fully listened through the segment to see what he had to say and then didn't even finish listening to the rest of the show I was so disgusted with his heavily skewed view...
