I finally get to watch a upf live for once and it's a damn call in upf?

I thought it was pretty good last time they did it. Drew did a great job screening calls.

 

[brainzelda]

But wouldn't next Friday just be Switch all day?

 

[hamchan]

Well Beastcast is amazing this week.

(and every week)

 

[OdysseusVA]

Isn't next week Friday his last day?
He's mentioned March 3rd.

Whoopsie daisy

 

[robotrock]

But wouldn't next Friday just be Switch all day?

switch stream will last for two hours

 

[brainzelda]

switch stream will last for two hours

WHAT??? Playing every game in 1 2 Switch alone will take that long.

 

[Meneses]

Giant Bomb 28 | I'm a Cop

 

[hamchan]

switch stream will last for two hours

Seems a bit long.

 

[Archaix]

Call-in show? Sweet, I had fallen behind on videos anyway. Good to have one to skip.

 

[Teddified]

There is a switch and TV there too.

 

[OdysseusVA]

I don't think Ive heard anyone drink their 40s...

 

[Lunar FC]

Seems a bit long.

Snipperclips ER I hope.

 

[Twin Tails]

notmyupf

 

[DrFunk]

oh one of these shows

 

[Data West]

They're in the podcast studio, sadface.

 

[Rainmaker]

oh yeah. forgot we all erased our memories of the last call-in upf being good (they shouldn't overdo it though)

 

[killroy87]

switch stream will last for two hours

Yeah, as excited as I am for a launch day stream, it won't last terribly long.

Though to be honest, the long-ass Wii U stream spent like 2 hours trying to update the system, and the majority of the rest of the time playing old third party titles. So if nothing else, whatever this Switch stream does consist of should be more engaging.

 

[Data West]

I missed the meeting we had where we all came in and decided the last call-in show was good

 

[throwawayname]

I don't think Ive heard anyone drink their 40s...

I tok a shottt evryyytime dan askd a questionfghdfhsaddfgd....

 

[robotrock]

I still think GB East should handle the Switch stream, get that done early in the morning. let west do GDC stuff all day and have a proper drew send off.


also I am a podcast UPF defender. or at least a defender of variation. change up the show every once in a while, make it feel less stale. it's necessary if they want to keep UPF running imo and have it be good.

 

[Twin Tails]

If there is calls, I hope for the worst calls.

 

[killroy87]

Jeff usually is smarter than me with turning seemingly bad ideas into good content, but taking listener calls is something I'm pretty confident won't lead to good content.

 

[LiK]

Listener calls always suck. I'd rather they do email shows instead.

 

[DrFunk]

there are monthly now ahhhh

 

[Teddified]

So the last Friday of the month is always a podcast upf i guess?

This is your guys fault for complaining about upf

 

[Volotaire]

I like the call in shows on an occasional basis so I'm looking forward to today's show.

 

[Archaix]

There was that one time the guy asked about Megan's Law and made Ryan burst into laughter.

So once. Once in nine years it turned into memorable good content.

yeah emails are good

Lets workshop new gimmicks or personas for Dan.

I have one. Dan only speaks in rhymes.

 

[throwawayname]

Everyone will ask Drew about his future.

 

[Fried Food]

what a surprise, no Brad.

edit: Get well soon Brad

 

[Data West]

HEY GUYS HOW CAN I GET IN THE BIZ
HEY GUYS WHAT GAMES ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO
WHATS YOUR FAVORITE ZELDA

once a month

 

[Dineren]

I don't remember any of that last time. With Drew screening the questions and the caller being cut off after asking the question it seemed fine.

what a surprise, no Brad.

Brad is sick.

 

[robotrock]

what a surprise, no Brad.

brad's sick

brad if you're reading this feel better i love you

HEY GUYS HOW CAN I GET IN THE BIZ

once a month

imo the calls on the last episode were a lot better than what you're saying here. i understand the concern but i think drew does a good job screening them.

At least they've done full play throughs of games lately so there isn't any more "WHEN'S THE NEXT ENDURANCE RUN"

 

[killroy87]

If we get through this without one question about faulty Switch hardware, I'll be blown away.

"did you try fixing your studio"

 

[Data West]

i got some bad news for you


and once he's gone, i'm sure it'll be rorie fielding the calls which might be even worse than no fielding.

 

[funkystudent]

Remember when these call in shows where just something Dave would do every now and again?

 

[Rhaknar]

is that beastcast thumbnail shopped or are the joycons really that small?

 

[robotrock]

lol i was thinking about saying something along those lines but yeah.

we'll see

 

[Dineren]

Nintendo killed Jeff.

 

[Twin Tails]

Don't put Switch games in your mouth.

 

[Volotaire]

Why did Jeff do that lol.

 

[Teddified]

Bad mouthfeel for switch games confirmed.

 

[Xeteh]

Great start.

 

[Fried Food]

I should not be sober for this

 

[Ashby]

I should not be sober for this

Why would you ever be sober for UPF

 

[ev0]

So people complained UPF was boring, they weren't putting any effort or not playing games they were actually interested in.

And their response is to do a show once a month where they don't have to prepare anything at all
