January 7, 2021: "What? I'm having audio problems? Fuck! I'm pressing the thing! What more do you want from me?"
February 2023: "Okay, I fixed the audio, hopefully for good this time..."
lmaooo. I tuned into the most recent one after a listening hiatus. Our favorite host can't catch a break
Love him on the pod, but his "cushvlogs" or whatever are just garbage. The man needs an editor.
Sorry, not sorry.
As is the nature of stream-of-thought streams. He makes some salient points in them, but they are pretty spread out. I like the interactions with chat that the format enables, though.
I can't listen to them while folding laundry or anything though, they're too disjointed. I listen to them on Spotify in the same way that I listen to the E1 Joe Biden episode.
salient points? matt's "stream of consciousness" conflates the molotov ribbentrop pact with an ALLIANCE so excuse me if i find little value in them
you know, I was inclined to defend the guy until I heard him and Felix blithely miss the point of the last 3 seasons of the wire
is this a random screwup or a symptom of more wrongness on matt's part? (felix less likely to say useful things IME) also who do you like better for commentary in this vein?
they are first and foremost guys who like to talk to each other about things chapo doesn't seem to care about the form or function of what they discuss, they want to create an entertaining conversation, and leave the fact checking to the "hogs"
lmao honesty how you gonna have all that money and not buy the best audio system known to man, can you literally hire someone to install it
Apparently he just calls Chris for tech support and then Chris has to try and explain it to him over the phone like he’s a grandpa asking how to use google
Goddamn he’s been having audio issues since the start but at least then he was explicitly stoned
As a Linux operator I can sympathize- I swear I have to un-fuck pulseaudio once a month
It doesn’t help that only one operating system uses the “mixer/patchbay” metaphor for the audio settings and even it doesn’t clearly convey that in the gui.
