The new Podcast

WOW! Mike read in German for 2 minutes.....Sweet!

Guys, you know I like almost everything you do here......everyone of you work hard and try to put out the best product possible. I have to ask though, what the hell was that? Other than a complete waste of my time, it sucked, it was not funny or interesting.

We were asked to come up with good questions....and Mike does that mess?

If this is just going to be a joke and you guys want questions like: Hey Mike, do you maintain a regular bowel movement schedule now that you have to eat California cuisine? ....just let us know.

I know it was free, but I do believe in what you guys are doing here and want you guys to be around for a long time making huge amounts of money for yourselves and continue to have the best product out there. I just don't understand why you guys would go to all this trouble of setting up these podcasts just to record crap.

Ouch... harsh words, man. Harsh words.

I tried to make it clear that this is not the last one and there will be more questions answered in the future.

How many podcasts are 100% interesting material anyway? From my experience, most of them are a waste of time, with worthless "banter" between two hosts who sound like they are missing their 8th grade study halls.

Anyways, Mike did one question honestly and the other one jokingly. Sorry if that offended you. We'll try to reign Mike in and get him to do 100% serious stuff from now on.

Oh crap... now you've done it. You know this means that the next podcast is going to feature Mike reading from Plato's Republic, right?

No, Torgo......Mike rised the bar so high, his podcast was a little disappointing . He is just so good with the comedy, I was really disappointed

That would totally rock! Mike does sometimes have the "teacher who is going to smack you with a ruler" thing going on. I can just imagine him reading and glancing menacingly over the book.

I was not a big fan of the podcast either but it was free so who am I to complain? They can't all be jewels to everyone.

Actually, I'd prefer it if Mike read the next podcast as if he were missing his 8th grade study hall.

Seriously, someone should ask Mike if he can reconcile Freud's idea of an individual subconscious ego with Carl Jung's theory of a universal collective unconscious. Woo-Hoo... that'd be a fun podcast for sure!

I was completely underwhelmed given how good many of the questions were.

I think everyone is sick of the schnappi joke. There is a reason why those viral videos have such a short shelf life.

The cheese curd response was good, but 2 or 3 good questions could have squeezed in the time wasted on schnappi.

The length is good, just about the average attention span...

torgosPizza · April 30, 2007, 11:20:34 AM

True.

Well, thankfully Schnappi was covered in the very first podcast, so I don't think we have to worry about him being mentioned in any future editions.

BathTub · April 30, 2007, 02:36:04 PM

lol, now that sounds like a Dare.

Natureboy · May 01, 2007, 03:37:44 AM

Well, Mike does make his living having a smartass-type sense of humor, so I should have expected what we got. It was a little disappointing (the podcast) because people are interested in him, what he thinks, the nuts and bolts of what it takes to make a Rifftrax, and when Batman and Robin will finally get what's coming to it

If I appeared like I was irate or trying to start a forum rebellion, I apologize.

I would just like to say that I laughed HARD at the Schnapi reading. But then I'm a fan of humor that punishes an audience that takes things too seriously. :^)

Pak, you must have been an Andy Kaufman fan then.

Not familiar with his work, but from what I've heard about him, I probably would have been.
