I love these for the comedy and answers to questions but some/most of the callers.. oh man.. the callers. I like how the phrase "Endurance Run" has turned into something synonymous with child rape and is just mumbled, followed by a quick apology for even bringing it up.

Karen's happiness is infectious. I love it when she's on.

And Vinny is looking at a guy? I can confirm that my speculation is that the said guy is none other than the Golden Duder, Matthew Rorie. PLEASE BRING RORIE ONTO THE GB CREW!

It sucks that a thing labelled "talk radio" does not have an audio only version available to download.

Very nice radio show. I wouldn't have thought these would keep being as interesting as they turned out to be. Plus it really helps to have some insight into continuing delays to better understand current challenges rather than getting pissed.

Is there a drinking game to go along with these call-in shows? I feel like I should down a shot every time someone from the UK is on the line.

Maybe now would be a great time to bring back "Question of the week"? That could solve this user submitted video thingy that people are asking for.

But then you'd be drinking like us and that's a bad idea. :)

How is Karen always so happy? I want what she's on!

The one guy talking about the jobs near the end was kind of...weird. Don't ever worry about what the chat says, lol. The fact he said something about the chat's reactions to Dave and Jeff is actually when he sounded like he was looking for a job, lol.

For someone who pretty much has to be in her 30s (right? Dave certainly is), Karen sure does look and act like she is about 25. WHICH IS AWESOME.

Doner kebabs give me the runs. I can't recommend them unless you are super hungry.

Giantbomb video idea:

Dave and Karen switch places.

Karen builds the site and plays Dwarf Fortress

Dave does .... whatever Karen does for a living.

I didn't think this through that well.

The guy who was clearly implying he wants a job there is a total bummer. What kind of approach is that even? Gross.

Look, a girl in the thumbnail. I have to watch this video right now. Also, I now have a strange urge to check a certain tech website.
