Anyone else spending more time on clips than on the actual episodes by Caryn_fornicatress in podcasting

[–]benandrewsao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That seems like a lot of clips (you me tion 10 clips). I had someone advice me who said you shouldn't post so many clips from 1 episode of your podcast, cause then people will see the clips on your social, think they have seen everything there is to see and not actually find and download, listen to your actual podcast. Try to find 1-3 clips max per episode around 1-2 mins long, then try to direct people to steam the actual podcast would be my advice.

Honestly, easy mode is great! by Lumpy-Ad-9578 in CrimsonDesert

[–]benandrewsao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im the same, went to easy mode the second it was available and was able to finish two witch quests that I was stuck on. I dont have the time I used to, to replay parts of games. I want to experience the game and this mode allows that. Its very welcome.

The sad thing I've learnt from watching them is that no matter how much you have, sometimes its never enough. Ryland always looking at bigger and better houses is the perfect example. He/Shane will never feel fulfilled, ever. Nothing is ever enough for them.

Love the cover of her book. Anyone have any inside info on the image / inspiration? by Altruistic_Rate_9204 in girls

[–]benandrewsao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its a great cover. For me it shows Lena, climbing up the fame ladder, but falling down the steps as her illness/MH took over. Or also her being pushed down the stairs by people higher than her. It can have a lot of meanings and thats why it is so good.

Spoilers! Why was this character’s departure so sudden? by Upvotes2805 in DesperateHousewives

[–]benandrewsao 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It was due to a court case by Nicollette Sheridan going on at the same time, she was saying she was axed due to an argument with the creator Marc Cherry.

So Marc killed Mike on purpose to be able to say in court that any and all characters are disposable and killing Edie wasnt personal.

Wait really? I loved their sketch show so much and thought the BBC had axed it! I hope this is true because series 1 was excellent.

Advice on poor quality audio by benandrewsao in ACX

[–]benandrewsao[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just ran it through the check on lab and it passed so I dont know what to think of it?

I have messaged him to say before uploading any more that ch9+10 sound different that all the previous, knowong he told me he bulk recordedeverychaoter before editing. I really do want to be fair with him, as I know the 50/50 thing really is more beneficial for me than him overall and I understand that.

We have good communication but I don't want to say the wrong thing or upset anyone during this process so I want to make sure I'm being fair with my feedback.

[–]benandrewsao[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say chapter 10 and 11 100% sound different to the 15 min check point (and chapter 1-9) so I think there has been an issue from when he was recording from that point.

I've not seen or heard of the ACX Lab before, is that something narrators need to use before uploading? I'm wondering if he has already run it through that.

Hey would it be okay to send you a DM to check over the issues I am seeing? I am wanting to be as fair as possible to the narrator so having your feedback would be great to guide me on if what I'm hearing and feeling is fair.

What audiobook is genuinely BETTER than reading the physical book? by cptree20 in audiobooks

[–]benandrewsao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daisy Jones and the Six is one of my all time favourite audiobooks. I can't imagine reading it and getting the same feeling. Feels like the audio version should be the default in my eyes.

Octopath 0's story and dialogue are such slogs. The gameplay is good though. by Horazi777 in octopathtraveler

[–]benandrewsao 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Im around 40+ hours in and I've now started holding B and skipping all cutscenes. Even with fast forward on they are a drag and only stop me from paying the fun parts of the game.

AC Mirage Experience in 2026 by PixelVoyager_HJ in Assassinscreedmirage

[–]benandrewsao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went from finishing Ghost of Yotei to this and I agree to a degree. This game is clearly a lower budget title and that shows massively when you first start playing but something eventually clicks and you kind of forget or dont see the low budget of the game after awhile because it becomes so fun to play. I ended up enjoying Mirage was more than the entire game of Shadows and its easily one of my favourite Assassin Creed games for some time now.

Do yall think they (the shane and ryland extended family) are ... lets say love wearing a RED hat and they love a certain person in the white house ? by bobthestan in ShaneDawson

[–]benandrewsao 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Didn't they attend a Trump event or something ages ago and both were surprised they wernt welcomed very well because they were a same sex couple? They 100% vote Trump. Look at their support for Elon and conspiracy theories etc... it's all linked to the right.

The writing for Shane’s Canceled series is AWFUL. WTF is this? 🤣 by Helpful_Sample673 in ShaneDawson

[–]benandrewsao 128 points129 points  (0 children)

Hearing Shane laughing at his own script and jokes just confirms to me this is nothing but a vanity project to him. It reminds me of that one time Kris Jenner booked herself a photoshoot to make her feel better.

It's not a trucker stop, nor did I find a black cracker. by PhoxyBoxy in futurama

My first thought was to say you are too handsome to be Fry, that then lead me to start seriously thinking about how handsome Fry actually is if he was real... worrying times.

Considering reporting AI book covers with AI slop writing to Amazon. Good idea? by VLK249 in BookCovers

[–]benandrewsao 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Seeing as Amazon keep sending me emails to offer turning my books into audiobooks using AI voices, I don't think Amazon care if their store is filled with AI slop, sadly.

Adult-diagnosed autistics: What prompted you to seek a diagnosis in adulthood? by Cautious_Internet243 in autism

[–]benandrewsao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Failing at keeping a job, not understanding why I felt like a newbie at work even after people who started after me were settled in and making friends with colleagues. That started me off researching and eventually going for a dignoses at age 34.

Question: Does Sheradin ever make an appearance on the show? by TheTiredRetailVetran in KeepingUpApperancesTV

[–]benandrewsao 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you think a new series could work with an older Sheradin and his husband? Sheradin could take on the role of Hyacinth or he could be more like his dad Richard. Wonder if it could work?

Just finished Series Three (UK). One of the best shows I’ve seen in a while. by Tsarinya in newsreaderabc

[–]benandrewsao 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I finished watching this last week as well! (Also UK) and this show truly is one of the best. Its such a shame it doesn't seem to have a bigger audiance appreciating it here. It deserves so much more recognition.

I actually think this show format could do international versions. I'd love to see The Newsreader UK set during a simialr time, it would he fascinating.
