Mr. Finn, your pants are on fire.

Is this like the thread in McAnally's where they replace key words with pants?

The sad thing is, I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet. Hope to on the way home.

The RPG thing is just where I'm starting from.  Eventually I'll build up blocks of movies, music, that sort of thing, but hey, if you do RPG stuff more than movie stuff, it's what you're bound to talk about, and that's the case with me. :)

Why not have a revolving group of critics on things Dresden Fans might want to know about? Each one has an area -- Movies, TV, Books, (Anime and Manga maybe?) and the like. You have the RPG area nailed down, and there's no reason why the segment couldn't be interactive.

I have.  As someone pointed out later in the thread where it came up, this is a guy who's given one star to other shows that have been quite good.  So I take that into account. :)
