Okay. That works, as long as reviewers don't end up feeling hamstrung by it, it's fine. But I honestly don't have a problem with a 10 point scale. I think that works just fine, same as a 5 point scale. Sometimes you want to be that bit more specific, more specific than what the 5 point scale offers. All depends on the preferences of the reviewers though.

Whenever they bring up wrestling they only ever talk about it for 2 minutes at most, before they remember that they have a podcast dedicated to wrestling and can leave the discussion for that. The only time they talked about it for longer was when they were talking about Supercard or Immortals, which are video games based on wrestling and therefore deserve to be discussed. These were also relatively recent releases which is why it might feel like there has been a lot of wrestling talk in recent weeks.

I had absolutely zero interest in Destiny, yet have listened to very lengthy, almost weekly discussions about the game. I don't mind though, because I like listening to the guys talk about absolutely anything.

But it's also okay to just tune out of segments you're not interested in. I tuned out of some of the Destiny talk, and I've tuned out of other a number discussion about games I had zero interest in. It doesn't matter, because it doesn't last that long relative to the overall length of the podcast.

Yeah you can easily cut down on that build man. For example, do you really need the liquid cooling straight away? Cut that out and save $172, maybe get it a few years down the track. Cut out that second 16gb kit of RAM, you don't need 32gb, save $143 there. The PSU is probably a bit overkill, so is the 4tb hdd. That motherboard is also probably a bit much for what you need. Then with the money saved you can put a bit more into your video card as has been mentioned. Ask around, see what people say

I'm in Austalia on ADSL2+ with no cap for $60 a month. We've been on this plan for like 6 or 7 years now. Before that we were with the biggest company (Telstra) and paid the same but for only 12gb a month. It was garbage. But that's what happens when you let monopolies rule for so long. Caps are still very common here, but plans even from the bigger companies are a hell of a lot better than they used to be, though still shitty.

Damn, read the final half of that with "Don't Stop Believin'" in my head. Came close to tearing up. Gonna miss you Patrick, but best of luck with whatever it is you do next. I've always loved your readiness to try new things and some of that has rubbed off on me and introduced me to some great experiences.

I've put a bit of thought into this myself. But over the last couple of years I've just taken my time with it and listen to the podcasts first. After each podcast I watch the video and read the article to recap it.

Doing the videos first and then the podcasts wouldn't be as good IMO, because then I'd be listening to these 2+ hour podcasts already knowing what the outcome will be. Wouldn't be as fun IMO.

I selected yes because if he had a stand-up act I'm sure I would greatly enjoy it. However for a broader audience, I don't know. I agree with others, comedy is difficult, no idea really if he could pull it off.

Either way he's an extremely funny guy, and a part of me hopes that he remains as some sort of media personality for a good long while. I could listen to the man talk about absolutely anything for the rest of my life.

It's unfortunate that I haven't followed NXT much at all in the last year. I caught the specials and a few episodes here and there but that was it. I watched the last few weeks worth though and it got me pretty interested in watching this special and I'm sure glad I did.

It was a pretty great 2 hours of wrestling. Steen's debut was as good a debut could have possibly been. The undercard matches were generally good and the women were impressive.

The main event was fantastic and hella emotional. I was almost in tears when Owens came out to embrace Zayn after his win. Having witnessed some of their work together in the past, it was really goddamn cool to see. But the very end of the show almost made me vomit with excitement. I can not wait to see those two go at it in a WWE ring. Should be awesome.

I don't think I will be missing another episode of NXT. I've been meaning to keep up with it all year, and now I have no choice.
