Deliberations podcast before/without seeing the results? - General Discussion

#1 Posted by boocreepyfootdoctor (808 posts) - 4 months, 27 days ago

I want to be able to enjoy the delib podcasts without having to see the picks on the Day pages nor the recap videos pages. Is there a direct link? The bombcast feed just shows the 18th edition regular one. Even the recap page mentions a delib podcast for day one but I don't see a link to it, either before or after the winners.

I didn't think it was uploaded yet? I'm waiting for it too.

There is always a delay. Last year it was around 15-20 minutes, I think.

Sounds like @taswell's Internet connection has gone rotten, so he's driving over to my driveway to upload today's podcast. #pleasehold

^ give it another 10 or 15 guys. It will be up within the hour, at least.

I love how there are two recap items and no podcast. It's the same every year, as if they're really trying to hide the podcast. It's as if they spend a lot of time on energy on this stuff, and in the end the whole structure doesn't really make sense.

Dude, seriously. No need to lose your shit. Give it some time.

Still, time don't matter, what I mean is, is there a way to get these podcasts without being spoiled of the winners beforehand?

Don't watch the recap video or read the article?

I hope you're right, that would mean 2 more minutes ;)

Just so long as it's up in the next few hours. Need the bombsquad to keep me company on the drive to the family's house!

They upload the videos beforehand and set the time when they go live. When they upload the podcast to wherever for itunes and whatnot, it goes live instantly.
If you're that concerned about spoilers, like any other spoiler-related thing, the best thing to do is to stay off the site, don't click articles, etc.

Close all of the Giant Bomb tabs on your browser. Do something else for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, get back to Giant Bomb. If the podcast is already uploaded, download it and listen to it. Then get back and watch the videos and read the articles. If the podcast has not been uploaded by the time you get back, repeat the process until it's up.

~~Simple enough.~~

It's up. See how everything solves itself in the end?

It's times like this that I really start to wonder.
