Great podcast.
Rone, your thoughts in the rant were spot on (even if they weren't very ranty). I think a lot of us can relate.
Anyway, one of the best AAs in a while.
Thank you very much for the comments, CH. I never know how the rants will go over, but I know they'll happen. Microphone on or off. They happen.

That was... really bad.
Either way, I think that was my favorite episode in a while. Really dug the rant, which is weird, because the "serious" ones don't usually do it as much for me. This one was great!

Thanks for letting me know, Shiny. This rant seemed to speak to people more so than any other.
And thanks for the song!

Not a clue.
I have a favorite? I mean I am partial to his rant on pies and pie makers, but I am unsure if you would call it the world spanning pangalactic gargleblaster of rants.

There should be an index! The one about mourning/loss of loved ones.
Ah yes. The Vultures of Mourning.

Dig around and get us some poop!
Please... no one say, "That's what she said." (NSFW!)

You should put together an album and/or book of your rants. Hell, I'd help.

Very kind of you to suggest and offer. (Happy emoticon would normally appear here, but it fails to show, fearing your contempt for its kind)
About 18 months ago, I attempted to back up my hard drive in order save all of the individual sound files comprising each show. However, I accidentally dumped them instead. So I'd just have to chop the rants out of the complete podcasts. Easy enough.
Here's a formatting idea. The album of rants could begin with the introduction theme, then the first rant, and then end with the roar, as usual, but then the second rant would begin instead with an abridged version of the intro, perhaps just "Ladies and Gentlemen, I bring you the beast." Then out through the rant and the end roar, then back to the abridged intro etc.
That cuts down on a lot of unnecessary theme time.

Honestly, it might work better if you did the entire intro separately, and then each rant would be a single track with no roar and no intro--just rant title/rant. It's an idea, at least.

For the beginning sure, can do, but the rants are all designed to end on a roar worthy note where I turn up the dynamic heat just a bit.

You do have a point.

Of all the guessses above... I'd say the holed up in the frozen Himalayas one is about right, so long as you spin the globe a half turn.
Despite the ice locking me into my house for six weeks… Episode 51 of Atomic Array Cometh!
John Wick has been involved in the creation of many great games, from Legend of the Five Rings to, more recently, The Shotgun Diaries. In this episode, we talk with him about Houses of the Blooded; a game of romance and revenge, invisible wars and sorcerous blood. It’s a game with no victors, only casualties.
Ambition. Lust. Revenge. You can’t have one without the others.

Good to have you back, man. Was the delay due to Iron GM, or something else?
Thanks.
I tell the story right after my Houses of the Blooded Atomic Arraysterpiece theatre segment plays. But the short of it? Winter's fury kicked me down the stairs, yanked my hair back and spat in my face.
For this, I paid winter $325.

I felt right at home getting back into the interviewer's seat.
However, after not driving for a month and a half I found that returning to behind the wheel of a car did not feel like home. I had to remind myself to keep my eyes on the road.
::jingling housekeys::
Ooo! What's THAT?!
I guess I just missed the look of passing scenery.

If my mane were anywhere as impressive as Rapunzel's, I would have eluded the Snowpocalypse much sooner. One more week and I'd have to double up on the conditioner.
What's so sad is that I really always do have to double up on conditioner. My dopplegiggity really knows me only too well.
BTW, Rapunzel wears a weave. Try and run your fingers through her hair. She will lose her mind on you!

Does it get puffy and frizzy if you do not? If so do you have pictures? I need a laugh.
