Today on diggnation - Tea! ... *snore*

[hamtaro]

Is anybody else sick of hearing them talk about tea? I feel like I'm listening to two grandmothers. Actually they're getting boring as shit in general, their stories are all just - company X made a PR mistake - company Y changed their release date from June to October - Company Z had a sale but the discounts weren't very good.

I'll probably watch a couple more episodes, but that'll be it for me unless they can think of something more entertaining to discuss than tea.

As Alex and Kevin have more and more projects to do, and most shoots are in the morning, I doubt it will go back to the old style very often. Sure, the show has changed, but I don't really mind it. I just don't like that the show has gotten shorter... :/

IMHO, the banter is the reason we watch. If they can do that sober, so be it.

But, I think we all know that there are times in which being drunk is the reason it's funny.

I'm a tea-drinker so I enjoy when they talk about tea, though I will say that when they're both slurring words and rambling on it's rather funny. I agree with the earlier statement that it's shortening in length is annoying, but the tea is fine with me.

Don't hate Kevin and Alex for the content. They get it all from Digg, which has slid into being little better than 4chan or fark for the semi-literate.

Two grandmothers, that's hot.

If you don't like where they have gone with the show, start your own...

I love Diggnation, and will be a fan till the day they put the cameras down, but started missing the old days of drunkeness and tangents. So me and my buddy decided, we are two funny/witty people, let's make our own podcast. We aren't "Kevin & Alex status" and we have NO production money (and it shows) but we are getting some positive feedback!

I say make your own show, or better yet, give ours a listen.

P.S. Making your own, makes you appreciate the effort that goes into producing a podcast.

funny considering recently Kevin has done a few stories that start with him saying "This didn't make it to the front page, but I liked it"
