Nope. That's what they showed yesterday instead of regular TNT.

I fucking love this stuff, thanks for sharing it. I'm always a fan of giving us an up close look of the stuff we sort of notice on the periphery. Oddly enough, the coolest stuff to me is how easily you guys can control the video/audio going into all of the office televisions, it's one of those things that I never thought about but makes perfect sense for this sort of video production.

I like to think that I'm rather technology-savvy being a senior web developer and all.

It's so interesting to be humbled by a video like this. There's so many facets of "technology" that I literally have no idea about and have the utmost respect for. I couldn't even begin to understand all of the work that goes into live-streaming media and I see myself watching this a few times just to absorb as much as I can.

This is among the reasons why I don't think twice about re-upping my subscription!

Jeff's goatee looks kinda off to me. It doesn't seem very "full" or whatever. It's the same reason why I don't try to grow goatees.

This was absolutely awesome. Until now I only had a vague understanding of the technology and effort necessary to produce this kind of content. I'm pretty sure I'm not alone when I say I have a new level of respect for you guys.

Awesome video guys, really respect what you do. Can't wait for "Zip-Tie'n with Vinny" a 48 straight hour stream of Vinny and Drew with a bag of 10,000 zip-ties, routing and zipping all the cables. :P

Regarding the audio volume: For whatever reason the stream volume is actually really good on seaserpent's chat despite being really low on the live site's chat. Ask Dave about that!

Also, thanks for the awesome behind the scenes content, I love seeing how this stuff works! You guys do a really great job.
