Podtoid 88: Toucan rider

1:20 PM on 02.24.2009   |   Anthony Burch


ere

This episode is about two things: penises and toucans. Though not necessarily in that order.

Go here to listen to the new Podtoid. Jim, Topher, Samit, and myself are in it. And Adam Dork talks, like, twice. Highlights include:

- We spoil Destructoid's Noby Noby Boy review

- We spoil Destructoid Discusses for this week

- Linde isn't there

- Linde is there

 - Fighting game schools of thought: manual dexterity vs intuitive strategy

 - A short post-show conversation

The best question this week came from MarkandChelle, which I guess is two people. Send your mailing address to reverendanthony [ a t]gmail [do t]com and we'll send you stuff.

Is the post-show conversation in the beginning? I'm listening right now and was confused as fuck after the first 6 minutes.

Not playing Noby Noby Boy limits ones ability to talk about a "game" called Noby Noby Boy. :P

Lol, the Left 4 Head extra bit at the beginning is great. I love the minute long silence afterwards. I used it to contemplate my existence.

I'm a fucking idiot. That silence isn't meant to be there.

sorry the pun had to use an accent.

I actually did Isay both for Foghorn leghorn and because that's what I thought British people sounded like when I was little

I loved the stalker section at the end and then the final sentence about Aaron's PSN name.

Since there was all the gamertag/PSN talk at the end of the episode, what is the policy about DToid members adding members of the staff?

I guess it's add them, or don't. Either they accept, or decline. They're just people.

I couldn't disagree with you guys more on the GTAIV penis issue. It's just a dick. Who cares. No one flips out when there's a dick in a movie. I'm pretty sure that's how Rockstar sees it. Wtf is Anthony talking about? The penis doesn't inspire emotion? Stop being to pretentious. Jim and Samit, even though I disagree with them, are the only two who gave logical reasons why they didn't like it.

Your game. It is happening. Give it a few weeks.

I really hope you guys don't take that back in the next hour and a half, 'cause then I'll look like an idiot.

Since I haven't got Noby NOby, the whole conversation is lost on me...

I have to admit, I also liked this episodes post-show banter. I have a feeling Rev is going to kick me off his xbl friends list though. :D

This was one of those Podtoids in which I seriously thought about cutting my subscription.

I'm just over Anthony's negativity. I mean, I respect his opinion, but he just sounds so miserable. There's only so much of that I can take before I'm done listening.

I like that games get heavy criticism by him, but to sit there and listen in on constant complaints is unbearable. And that whole GTA conversation was...It made me angry. It's all I'll say.

OK, the end segment of the podcast was amazing and I forgive you for everything...

Did I just hear Aaron Linde ask Anthony whether "Ashley knows what you will be like in the event that you two break up?"

I need to re-assess my entire life after this. And take a shower.
