With no time limit at all, it becomes very easy to ramble. That's how you end up with a 5 hour long video. I'm not saying that the quality of the discussion is bad or anything - I'm actually really excited to listen to it. It's just easier to get straight to the point if you give yourself a time limit.

There is actually a much simpler solution: Lesser topics.

Time limits actually create more work for me to do in planning it. To be honest, I did have a sort of time keeper. Every 50-60 minutes I call a break. This was to do two things: One, create your time limit, but also stopping points. "End of topic here, beginning of new topic after break." Two, easier to organize and maybe add in extra stuff in between and to give the listener a breather as well. Giving them a stopping point. Genius if I do say so myself.

Problem was, I was so tired I forgot to implement that system this time and well we rambled like you said. We also had several pause moments where no one would say anything. They really racked up.

We also had more questions this time around and once again we rambled from answering the question to going out left field.

Plus, each guest is different. While some are to the point, others have a hard time expressing what they need to say. I am somewhere in the middle of that. So setting a time limit like that would...well, it would cause more problems then it solves. Using the first and second podcast as example, the system worked perfectly and we got a nice clean podcast. Also given that I was right on the money with each additional person added 30 more minutes to the podcast just one discussion alone.

3 hours is the standard for these podcasts if I use a certain amount of topics and the certain amount of people with the break system. Maybe even less with edits.

This one was just taking on too much at one time with topics that are heavy in discussion. However, certain topics we do NOT need to discuss again ever thanks to this one.

So the podcast will go back to the normal standard from now on.

O_O James, you wanna say we dirtied the podcast? Oooh, you..you!
Anyway, kiddin' just so you know. And indeed, we kinda rambled on this one, but the subjects we were discussing went like the webs you know.
It's like every single thing added helped to convey the overall idea.
At least in my opinion.

No, more like we had too much fun and were overzealous. Except for Shadow...who strangely wouldn't talk much.

You should have a buzzer sound. Like "Ah! Time's up!" Lol. But seriously, best to time it as you were doing.

That's funny because....oh you will find out.

Lol.

I can't hardly wait. Well, I'm in next week, so hopefully this week chapter will be good. Hashirama can provide something amusing, but I can only hope.

Right?
And, yeah, poor Shadows! He was this quiet because at the end at least, I spoke too much and he didn't had any way to speak because of me

Umm... actually no. No need to worry about that. I actually enjoy listening to you guys, so in the end, you pretty much conveyed everything I wanted to say.

Plus remember that I had technical issues every now and then and that I was coughing all over the place (had to mute the mic a few times to prevent the sound form interrupting the podcast)

[Qia]

Hopefully ours doesnt drag too long @.@

Ehh doubt. Then again, it all depends on this week's chapter too xD. And if you guys say whatever's already in my head.

Yeah... except for the weird horse/cow hybrid sound.

That was me.

I was wondering what that was...

Well, there are three sounds that are done after Chatte begins laughing. I think the first two belong to TL, but the third one (the one that plays at 14 seconds in the vid) is actually me.

[James S Cassidy]

Part 1. Might want to wait a while to let it load


Google: "This is taking longer than expected. Your video has been queued and will be processed as soon as possible."

It's sort of nice to hear you guys mess up sometimes, though. . That was an interesting horse interpretation. (it was definitely horse xD).

Edit: The video is being processed still, right? Because that's what it says for me. Not available

Same here. It says it's unavailable. Lazy Google is lazy.

[MangaReader]

Oh boy, the video is unavailable. Sometimes google fails me :/

It's not just you. It's us all. But this is from Google., it's still on the upload phase so that's why it isn't working yet

Yeah. Still waiting. I don't know what other topics you guys talked about.

A lot of topics
I still watch the blooper one and still laughing

[TouKen4Life3g]

You know, I wonder what's the title card this time.

Well yeah, I knew that, it's just Google fails a lot (though I like their browser speed for the most part)
