Welcome back to Feedback Fridays! Last week, we got some good responses. Let’s keep it up!

This week’s question:

What is your favorite TYPE of show and why? What’s your least favorite and why?

Examples would be: Regular Episodes, Campaign Recaps, Interviews, or something else!

* James’ Kickstarter is still up and going strong! They’ve been funded, but if you want in on the ground floor of this, get in!

* Buy Marvel Heroic Roleplaying!

* Luke and David argue about Mass Effect. Forever.

* This turns into a discussion on Dungeon World.

* Which turns into a discussion on weird, quirks to valuing pieces of a game.

* That’s Wizards’ Chess

So, back here at Podge Cast HQ, the flaws of the show have become a running joke both behind the scenes and around the mics. For the most part, the hosts are analytic, reasonable people (I said for the most part) and so the identification of which specific flaws to focus our efforts on fixing to produce a strong show is the first step we have to take.

So, to that end, we’ve decided to implement Feedback Fridays!, your chance to give direct and honest feedback for us to draw some conclusions from.

So, without further ado:

What was your favorite TPC episode and why?
