I have to say this: Bombcast is too long

Really guys, from nearly two hours to two hours of podcast? There is just no way I can have the time to listen to everything in a week, even going to the gym and driving around...
Maybe it works for a lot of people but for me it just feels stretched. An hour of podcast is fine, more is just the crew talking random which is probably fun for yo but for the average listener is boring.

Is the truth, maybe you can agree or disagree.

I disagree, i dont listen to the podcast for the gaming talk really. I listen to it for the randomness that ensues which two hourse better suits.

I think its the perfect length, i have about an hour and a half to 2 hour commute everyday and its nice to have the bombcast for the whole trip... Hell id listen to 3 hour podcasts if they made them! They are just so much fun to listen to! ;)

Who is the average listener of the Bombcast? I'd think it would be people that love to hear the randomness.

It depends, during the summer I don't mind listening to a two hour podcast because I usually have a lot of free time but during the school year it can be hard to fit into my schedule.

You cant fit two hours of podcasting into a week?

Disagreed

It's perfect.

" You cant fit two hours of podcasting into a week? "

Man, I love the bombcast. I have a big drive a couple times a week. I like hearing their separate opinions on the video game issues of the day, even if it makes for a longer format.

I prefer it to the Hotspot. The Hotspot usually felt a little rushed.

Wrong. Two hours is fine. Even the longer ones that happen over E3 times and thing like that are fine.

Try stopping at about an hour in. Then perhaps listening to the 2nd hour at a later date if it suits.

If anything, it should be longer.

i very strongly disagree, its length is perfect right now... if they cut out all the random things they talk about like you mention then it would be the shittiest podcast ever imo

there are plenty of game podcasts that will just give you the facts with no humor and are short

" Try stopping at about an hour in. Then perhaps listening to the 2nd hour at a later date if it suits. "

It's good as it is.

I wholeheartedly disagree. I listen to it at work as well as a few other podcasts. It's basically the only thing that gets me through the day without going crazy.

NO! You are not going to fuck up the boring parts of my job, which I fill with podcasts. Fuck you.

But seriously, two hours is nothing, I listen to about ten podcasts every week, and I do it mostly over the weekend or while I'm cooking.

Its Awesome the way it is, I wouldent be unhappy if it was (naturally) longer lol

If it were less than 2 hrs we wouldn't get the weird tangents they go off on or all the hilarious moments that make the bombcast so much more than your average podcast.
If the guys kept having to watch the clock the conversation would evolve naturally, they'd be constantly pressed to move on the next subject.

It should be on all the time! 24/7

" It should be on all the time! 24/7 "

I think two hours is the perfect length for a podcast. It's not too short or too long. But for the Bombcast, I want longer more tangent filled greatness. Like someone said just break it up into increments. You have seven days to listen.

I was really happy when they started going over an hour, I always wanted an awesome podcast where they guys who did it would go as long as they needed to. None of this "oh we have to fit it all into one hour" bull shit. Podcasts like that always seem forced, and rushed. I love the GB cast and would have it no other way.

It's certainly perfect for me because I'm sixteen and I have to walk a couple miles to get to town. I can usually get through a whole episode in that amount of time.

The longer the better. If you haven't got time to listen to a 2 hour podcast in a whole week, you do too much. Slow down, relax more, and listen to the bombcast!!!!!!

Two hours is perfect.  You can't tell me you don't spend 2 hours a week in your car or sitting infront of your computer.  Perfect time to listen to the podcast.

Not long enough lol; listen to it in one day at work. Actually feel its perfect for timing and junk, really wish though the guys played older games from time to time with the what are you playing bit guess being a reviewer you gotta go with the new.

dont listen to this fool. The bombcast is perfect. 

Please don't listen to this post GB team. While I appreciate everyone should have an opinion on the site I'm perfectly happy with the 2 hour-ish podcasts and don't want to see them any shorter unless entirely neccessary (based on time constraints for recording etc).

Although it can be hard as hell to make it through the cast in a week, two hours is awesome because when you do have time to listen to it, there's a ton to listen to. My Zune always keeps three episodes (if they're unlistened to) ready too.

the length is fine

Long bombcasts always are better than short ones. Imo

The reason I don't tune in is because I think it goes on for far too long.

The longer the better!

I love the long length of the Bombcast.  I love to heard what they have to say about the current games, news, and the awesome new games out for DSi (sarcasm).

The length of the podcast is fine.  It might be cool to hear an unedited version every once in a while so it was longer and a little more random.

" you can fuck right off. "

I say, it's too short!

I think the length of the podcast is fine.

This is like saying "Grandma, this is really getting on my nerves, $200 is just TOO MUCH for my birthday. Stop right now".

When you made this thread did you really expect everyone to come and agree with you?... -_-

LIEZ!  It needs to be LONGER!  :D

What is boring is a podcast that is strictly about videogames.  2 hours is fine, in fact I'm kind of dissapointed if its not two hours. lol

So long as it's entertaining, I don't mind the length.  Gives me something to listen to on my Shuffle at work.

It's not that long. The 1up guys often have podcasts that are 3 hours long!
