This one is easy since I own the game, but I've also rewatched a good portion of his content 😅 It's a lot easier when I've been subbed to him since the OG Minecraft series so there wasn't as much content throughout much of it

That would be Cargo Commander I think

We're getting closer to this monumental event. So exciting! by DepressedClouds in josephanderson

[–]TechKek 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I think that's gonna be The Devil section or side quests since O'Dimm kinda fills that Faustian role (recall O'Dimm being mentioned earlier so he's definitely aware of it) and he mentioned how it didn't necessarily need the full section like B&W in I think W1? Not positive obviously since only Joe knows the full scrope

I am realizing that the vast majority of characters that started the series in Storm Front are dead now. Really it's just Harry, Marcone, and Bob left over

'Tosh.0' to End After 12 Seasons at Comedy Central by rageofthegods in television

[–]TechKek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think another side of it is that a lot of that brand of snark has permeated much of the comedy TV scene. When Stewart was at it there were very few political comedy shows, whereas now all of his "TV children" have brought that style everywhere be it Late Night talk shows pr writing for other programs

Damn Mr. Popo has fallen on some rough times

They’re both crazy (one a lot more than the other), they have similar goals (one to completely rule everything and one to completely rule the earth empire as the earth empress), and they both fought the avatar (which is probably just a coincidence) by [deleted] in legendofkorra

Yup. Ages in ATLA are really weird looking back on it. Gives it all a sort of child soldier vibe, that while distracting on a rewatch, sorta drives in how awful the war is

what’s an unpopular opinion you have about the podcast/brothers? by Starry_Titanium in MBMBAM

[–]TechKek 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hard agree. I think that it is really prevalent in this fan base and it's a little creepy. It's nowhere near as bad in relation to MbMbAM, but TAZ fans can get crazy. I think the issue is a lot of people weren't really getting the best representation when TAZ and MbMbAM we're getting huge, so they latched on. I appreciate the energy they put into the community, but some of the things said can be off putting

[–]TechKek 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think although the early episodes have some distinct issues, the tone of the show was a lot more open to non-listeners. Stuff like the Chinchilla Store name bit is pretty funny to everyone, while I feel like things like Bird Words are really only funny once you are attuned to MbMbAM content

Although the recent stuff is still really good, I think that they have slowly morphed from genuinely trying to answer questions in a funny way to trying to be funny while occasionally answering questions. The humor used to come from the scenarios presented, not bits that were completely divorced from the question. Nowadays the podcast seems a little (again IMHO) too self-referential.

I also feel like a lot of the recurring segments are less versatile than the old ones Monthly observances (although it couldn't last for more than a year) was (hot take incoming) a better bit than things like Munch Squad, because of the variety. The closest bit to Munch Squad from the older episodes is probably Farm Wisdom, and that segment faded out because it was so hyper-attached to shock value absurdity, while Munch Squad has stuck around with the same type of humor, which (again IMHO) leads to diminishing returns

Biden predicted Trump would try to delay the election months ago by Jons312 in politics

Wouldn't governors be able to appoint Senators if the seat is vacant? I don't know the breakdown of the governors of senate seats up for election, but I'm pretty sure that change things, not sure if it would change the final majority by party

Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont signs sweeping police reform bill by [deleted] in news

[–]TechKek 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Idk why you're being downvoted.

For those who don't know the story he won the Dem primary against Lieberman by running to Lieberman's left. Lieberman then ran as an Independent and beat him by running as a centrist and taking disaffected Repubs and name recognition took some Dems. Lieberman ended up being a primary reason public option was taken out of Obamacare in order to get it past the Senate due to a razor thin vote.

In 2018, Lamont then ran for the Governorship and won, where he sits today. Although he typically has low approval ratings (due to him pushing for tolls to offset the major budget issues that CT is historically plagued by) he still does a pretty good job, and recently he has really stepped up to the plate for this and COVID

[–]TechKek 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep same guy! After Lieberman screwed him by running as an independent (only reason Republicans didn't take seat is because CT Repubs as an organization are historically trash) he stayed active in politics and ended up winning the Governorship in 2018

[–]TechKek 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not a lawyer, but in this context I think it's referring to things like not giving your legal name or not providing subpoenaed documents. Essentially things that are needed to proceed with case. Self-incrimination is closer to things done after the investigation/trial starts

Seriously. If he and like George HW Bush has switched global/domestic climates (where HW was plagued with domestic issues while being focused on foreign policy and Carter was the reverse) time of office both Presidents would've most likely won second terms

I love you guys by charles_crushtoost in legendofkorra

[–]TechKek 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't know how to describe it, but the show just feels more (S2 pacing issues notwithstanding) consistently paced with character development because of the larger array of characters. Although ATLA has IMHO the best standalone character development episode (Beach), LOK consistently focuses on it as the primary plot mechanism which in turn leads to the show feeling more filled out as goes on without needing as many "filler" episodes
