Do you think that the game Amy is offensive to fans of Amy Winehouse since it essentially documents the final moments of her human life? (kisses)
@Jim and Holmes: Have either of you ever seen Bad Boy Bubby? It's like Forest Gump if it was directed by Podtoid. The only thing it's missing is Willem Defoe!
@Jim - Have you ever seen Dark Place? I swear you're a ringer for Garth Marenghi.

Let's pretend that for some strange reason, a tv network decides to give you guys your own tv show, but they don't know too much about Podtoid. How would you go about describing it to them
Also,
Jim, what's the one thing you miss most from the U.K.?

What's the nerdiest piece of apparel that you've worn in public?
I have a bunch, but I'd say mine is the following hoodie from jinx:

Constructive Criticism: Jim, I've noticed that you've been recycling podtoid rants on the jimquisition lately. Don't just repeat what you said on podtoid. Use new examples to illustrate your points during jimquisition.
You've said in the past that you don't consider yourselves "journalists" and don't like using it to describe what you do. How do you feel about being called critics? Is there a word you'd use to describe your jobs, other than joking around saying "game bloggers"? I'm legitimately curious, because I respect what you guys do, and think "game blogger" doesn't do it justice. Sure, you play games for a living in a way, but you guys work hard pretty much every day of the week.
HEY MILO JACKS-OFF-HANSEN-FROM-THE-90S IS BACK. JONATHAN, are you or Jim at all interested in Guild Wars 2? If so, what would your character names be??
Can any of you do your best impersonation of an Alien, from well, Alien?
It doesn't have to sound sexual.

Eating a baby dragon's penis with a spork, and salt and pepper while it's still alive. Is it pedophilia or not?
What are your thoughts on the rumors that the next Xbox and now the PS4 (fuck whatever stupid 'real' name Sony wants to call it) will block used games from working? Do you think this will cause people who can afford good PCs to stop buying consoles?
Jim, you like those toys, right? Tell me, what is the most expensive toy you've ever bought? I spent $275 on a masterpiece Optimus Prime, is that sane of me?
Hello fellas. Long time listener first time poster. No question this time, just my thanks to you both for making at least a little part of my 5000 mile a week semi driving job enjoyable. Please keep up the awesome work. (hell, drop an extra podtoid on a brother now and then if you can manage) Also have a great time at PAX!
Besides a drastic change in EA's customer support competence, what would it take to get either of you back into an MMO or to start playing one in the first place? Have any forthcoming ones caught your attention, or is there something the genre would have to do or change to draw you in?
And while we're here, how's the saga of Jim's SWTOR account going, anyway?

Dearest Jim, 1. Could you insist that Janatam Harmes call you JAM STARLING for the remainder of the podcast?
2. How much would you Kickstarter me for a game based upon CITV classic 'ART ATTACK'? You play as Neil Buchanan and your destructively compulsive need to create large scale open air 'art attacks' causes a blight upon the everyday proceedings of Aintree, Merseyside. Stealing whatever you can from whoever you can in order to create an 'art attack' that looks like a kingfisher or some shit when gazed upon from an aerial view. A bit like Katamari crossed with the police evasion bits from GTA .

Is Witcher 2 going to be any good? Is the world as big as Just Cause 2? Skyrim? Vice City? Atari 2600 Adventure?
Is Max Payne 3 going to be good? How many hours is the single-player?
Whom should we thank for Jim Sterling?

With both Darksiders 2 and Assassin's Creed 3 both coming to Wii U, regardless of the rumor that Jim reported on today, it's highly unlikely but both could be the definitive versions of the games. What do you guys think would make them do well on that system?
I've been playing Silent Hill Downpour on Jim's recommendation and have really been enjoying it, but I've always wondered- why do you hate Shattered Memories? You've often said this, but I've never heard you explain why. It was a departure from the traditional formula, but its story and way of telling it was, out of the series, the most satisfying for me. I read your reviews because my opinions usually sync up with yours, so I'm curious to know what it was about the game that drove you fucking crazy.
I'm playing Lone Survivor and it appropriates pretty blatantly from the Silent Hill series. Where is the line drawn between homage and ripping off?
I can never think of a question to ask, so I'll just say a little something. I just want you to know that I like you guys a lot and even though we're strangers to each other, being a part of Destructoid and twittering every once in a while, while pretty far removed from actual human interaction, is 100% better than not having those things in my life at all. I'm sure plenty of Podtoid-listeners would agree.
I know how nice it can be to read something positive and I think if someone deserves to have something nice said to them, then say it as soon as you think it because you might not get another Jonathan Holmes what is your ethnicity
If you get to bring back Willem Dafoe movie pitches, I get to do that again. Just once. But seriously, I meant everything I said.

I'm beginning to suspect that a technologically advanced race of insectoid creatures are nesting in my pineal gland, what should I do?
I read somewhere that in the future humans will eventually all mix into just one race that's bald and has a brownish skin tone. So the obvious question is: Johnathan holmes johnathan holmes! What was time traveling back from the future like!?! Also! What is your ethnicity called in the future?!?
*MINOR SPOILER SORT OF*
What do you think of this: a patched/DLC Mass Effect 3 ending where the kid is replaced by a cigar-smoking evil Willem Dafoe baby? And the last shot is Shepherd spunking tiny Reapers at the camera?

Jim: How would you, preferably, like to have an alien birthed from you?
Holmes: I'm very comforted that you're able to keep such a cool head, especially with all of the awkward stuff that goes on around you. You're a shining inspiration for what people can be, especially because you should let me put my terrorlog in your hairy starfish. That's a question.
Seriously though, love the show. Podtoid App for apple?

Jim! 'Tits on the Radio' Scissor Sisters... best song ever? John and Jim! What did you think of the ill-fated Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack? Also, is Brad Nicholson's shoe size directly related to Johnny Holmes ethnicity? I'm in lumpin like-like with you both!!! Keep up the awesome, possums!
If you could magically make one notoriously shitty game (i.e. Too Human, Duke Nukem Forever) into a good one, which would you pick, and what would you fix?
