Podtoid 183: Narcissistic Lesbian Romance

Podtoid 183: Narcissistic Lesbian Romance  photo


On this week's Podtoid, we get pretty damn vicious about Sandra Bullock, we chat about the ethics of making mental patients fight like pocket monsters, and we chat about how 2012 is going to be a "great year for game journalism." We're pretty sarcastic about that particular sentiment.

There's also yet more talk about the PS Vita, and something about some other videogames.  

Despite the festivities, there's also a bit of tragedy. Jonathan Holmes is sick (and needs your help with "Liking" a video), Max Scoville is bad at sex and Jim Sterling suffers multiple betrayals at the hand of his own industry. Tara Long, however ... Tara trumps them all. You'll have to listen to uncover her fate.

Best and worst episode ever, by far.
Opening with a Craig David reference? I love Jim Sterling.
Why did I have to leave my headphones at home today...
Holmes is like the anti-Axl Rose. Always willing to please the crowd. Liked the video and going to buy the album later today.
My God, it's like she's trying to eat Meryl Streep's head! That's not lesbianism, that's cannibalism!
URREMAAAAGUDDD JIM I'M AT WORK AGAIN AND YOOR POSTING THESE SEXY THINGS AND ANOTHER WANK IN THE CUBICLE IT IS..
We'll miss you Tara. ;_;
Aw, I'll miss having Tara on Podtoid, having her just on the Dtoid show is not enough! And I hope Max can keep doing the podcasts too. I'm not sure I can bear to lose them both.

In any case, it wasn't so sad because they read my question! Hooray!
I hope we get a new 4th chair. Otherwise, Holmes is just going to end up getting gang-raped.

But yeah... I'll miss Tara.
Guys, get Mr Andy Dixon on the show.
I am strangely disappointed in Tara leaving. It's bothering me way more than it should. Max, please don't go also! Jim and Johnathan are great but it's not the same without the whole gang.
WELL, JIM! How the -FUCK- am I gonna listen to the sound of tits now?
That bad synth guitar in the music is bad.
Why isn't the Dtoid bumper music from YouTube used instead? It would be consistent.
I hope Tara comes back for Ghastly appearances. I hope Max stays on. But if not, Jim and Jonathan are two of my favorite People I've Never Met so Podtoid will continue to be awesome regardless.
Dont fret podtoid!

You are a tri-force of excellence!
and make thousands of people wet as they drive their kids to school

but if you ever decide to pull a Tara Schlong and leave Holmes...
I WILL RAPE YOU BACK INTO THE STONE AGE AND IT WILL BE PEDOPHILIA
Jonathan Holmes is Destructoid's, number 1!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry Jim you are a close second to the man who made is it paedophilia
Thoughts of Meryl: "Sandra's breath smells like Jesse's asshole :o" "I'm jealous!! :P" it sucks that Tara is leaving and hope max don't leave...
@Sandman666, Jim came up with is it paedophilia or not. Jonathan just was coerced to go along with it.
Having Podtoid without the Tara flavour will certainly be missed. I do hope Max stays but if not, farewell to you as well good sir. Thank you both for your contributions.

That said, I'm stoked for the future of Podtoid as well. Jim and Jonathan are great personalities and having an occasional guest appearance could work really well.

It was a great run with the 4 of you, cheers.
Did Max just call you a giant racist testicle?
Tara was awesome and I'll miss her on the podcast. Max will stay on the podcast according to his twitter, but I feel there should be at least one new person on the podcast.

I listened to some old Podtoids when Anthony Burch was host and was amazed at the group dynamic, which I feel is a little bit lost on current Podtoid. I still love the show, but adding a new person could freshen it up a bit.
it's like tiff chow all over again...
I listen to Podtoid at work and I frequently have to pause the show while listening so that I don't erupt into absurd laughter in my nearly silent office. Over the course of an 8 hour day, I might make it about 30 minutes into the show.
So Tara's going to be gone, but will Max still be on?
We will miss you, Tara! At least on Podtoid.

Also, you might need some help, guys. Jonathan is known to slip into the 5th dimension from time to time, and as awesome as Jim is, a one-person podcast is dangerous. (basically, you guys need me on the show)
@hode I definitely agree with you there sir. You will be missed Tara T.T

FPSRussia is a yank btw, not a real russian ;)
I want an episode of Podtoid where all of your wives and partners sit down together and listen to an episode of podtoid and we can get to hear what the fuck they make of this show.

Sad to see Tara leave, every now and then she was filth.

And Jonathon Holmes, if she was thirteen it was pederasty, not paedophilia.
Can we have Samit back please?
Lol, I was late to sex once. I was sneaking out to have sex with a trucker in a motel, and on the way there I...

-Fell down the stairs. (New socks are slippery dammit)
-Found out that my grandma's car was parked in front of mine and had to steal her keys.
-Set the car alarm off and woke up the whole family.
-Lied and said I had a midnight craving for Taco Bell.
-After everyone went back to bed, tried to leave again and couldn't get my grandma's car started.
-Woke my mom up again to ask her how to get the car to start.
-Finally moved the car so I could drive my own, and then ended up getting lost trying to find the motel.

All that made me like an hour late, but it turns out when I got there he was there lying face down completely naked on the bed in the motel room waiting for me. :3
As soon as they threatened to record Holmes vomiting I had to shut off the podcast because that is just too gross for me. However, reading the comments I gather that Tara is leaving the show. Aw sucks to that!

Please don't replace her- the best thing about her was that she was too cool for the show. She can't be replaced.
Of all the people on Dtoid Tara is probably one of my least favorites due to the fact that the Dtoid Show is basically the news I've read all day in the form of a video that isn't that great (that's mostly due to Holmes leaving though). She was better on Podtoid though, it's sad to see her go. I'm only now noticed that aside from a few barely active interns we don't have any girls on Destructoid aside from Tara. Hollie, Ash, and Pico all left which is a shame.

Basically Dtoid is VOX.
Jim sterling, I have a great idea for a new show, you tape Holmes wearing a dress while doing Mariah Carey covers. Then you tape yourself watching them while masturbating to the tape and making remarks of Holmes. That is not all though, after that you give the tape of yourself to Max and he can talk to your Masturbation video about women!
You should replace Tara with me, because I am the most qualified here.
Jim, your show was commentaryish, Respawn = commentary channel.
IF MAX LEAVES THEN i will still listen, one day jim will leave and it will be holmes talking to himself for 2 hours. I WOULD LOVE THIS
It would be awesome for Jim to read out Tara-e-mails. Tara Long's ideas and personality as covered by Jim Sterling's boisterous voice. I think you need a female personality on the show in some form, or else you all might explode into full-blown obscene Disney cartoons.

Which would actually be great. The sensible insanity is why I like this podtoid. I tried to listen to the old one and it was just too much like dudes duding.
Also,

Taraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ;_;
^This. So sad, please don't leave!
Im sad that Tara is leaving but at least on the upside it means we'll see more of her stuff on youtube.I really hope max continues doing podtoid with Jim and Holmes and also I think Anthony Carboni would be a good guest on podtoid.
Can you bring back Brad Nicholson? I mean, we never did find out just what his shoe-size is.
Maybe you can get Dale or Chad to join?
So I listened to this entire episode thinking you guys were talking about FOX Media's new gaming site.

That'll be the day...

How the Assassin's Creed series completely grew on me
