The only live episode that sticks out for me is the one where Jason went into the audience and took some lady's baby. :lol:

The last episode of theirs I listened to was Tango and Cash. Maybe they're better now, I dunno.

Interestingly enough, I like the live episodes of HDTGM way better.
"way"?

the live ones are better than they used to be. i think the audience is a little less, "i'm gonna go hysterical over literally everything" now that they have some reps in. they're also asking better questions these days. and the hosts are slightly less masturbatory.

i wonder, if you take the sleepaway camp episode and put it in front of a good audience, what the results would be. i think it drags it down, but i'm not sure.

And, as for 'free', it's really not. Unless they've switched to a model where they're not doing live reads and commercials anymore. Like Hulu, I don't appreciate paying $$$ for content and then being subjected to additional ads. Especially if the pay model is retroactive.
Yeah... huh? Every new episode is free, as are the last 20-30 episodes. Or are you saying even the new episodes aren't "free" because there are advertisements?

Yes, "way." My favorite eps are all live ones.

Sorry. I'm not complaining about the ads in their unpaid content, that's expected and perfectly fine. When I buy something a podcast advertises I always use a referral code. I wouldn't call them 'free', though.

I assume that if HDTGM ever made that exclusive content (Sawbones on Maximum Fun does this, too) that they still do the commercial reads. If they don't, props to them.

I must not listen to them enough because I've not heard about paywall, and when they start talking ads I skip forward 30 seconds and skip it all together. Advertisements in podcasts bother me zero and I can just skip through it.

I'll listen to the ads the first time around. But if it's a daily or weekly podcast that doesn't rotate the ads enough I'll skip.

My download counts their numbers so they can continue to sell ads. The second they break from the show it's an auto skip in my car.

I skip every single ad. The 15 s forward button is the best. Also, most podcasts will put music under their ads to easily identify them.

Yup, it's either music or a hard break.

I don’t know why sponsors think anyone is listening to those sex toy ads at the beginning of WTF. Who would endure that?

I do the same, except for Tony Kornheiser Show and Bill Burr. They both actually make their reads somewhat interesting or funny.

TK doing tech reads is awesome. The man has no clue at all, total lack of sincerity.

If you like the Watergate podcast, you should listen to the RFK Tapes.

This turned out to be a bust (re RFK tapes)

And also, the first two episodes of the Clinton Slow Burn season are great. I had never heard of TravelGate and had no idea about the shady stuff with the Little Rock crew the Clintons brought to the white house. Its clear the Clinton brought a ton of stuff on themselves

Agree with both. RFK was disappointing and Slow Burn has been really good so far.

Listened to one H3 podcast...the host is unbearable and needs to be removed from earth. Very stupid, doesn't get any jokes, can't make any jokes...just the worst...

Joe Rogan often goes through times where I don’t care for his guests, but he’s had Henry Rollins, Chuck Palahnuik, and NDT on his podcast in the last month.
