Life has a way of being uncanny sometimes, and just one day after I'd listened to another episode of the SOTOR podcast and found myself thinking that Ted (the host) would be a nice guy to talk to, I found a message from him in my inbox asking me if I wanted to join him for his next episode. Woohoo!
As Ted is a swift editor, the episode is already available for download two days after we recorded it.
When a guildie asked me what we'd been talking about on the show, I said "everything" - it did feel like we managed to go through a staggering amount of subjects, the most important of which Ted mentioned on the episode page.SOTOR Podcast | "Episode 48: Podcasting with Shintar" featuring @ShintarCommando is now available. #swtor https://t.co/cGm3jh7gNk— SOTOR (Ted) (@sotorpodcast) August 1, 2017
On it, he also refers to my pugging videos as a "popular video series", bless him! That's a very... optimistic way of talking about a show that gets about 30 views per episode, haha! Maybe I will gain a few more viewers now after basically getting a free plug on the show.
I can only try to return the favour and strongly advise you to check out the SOTOR podcast if you haven't already. I think it's still one of the lesser known podcasts about the game, probably because it's still relatively young (the one-year anniversary is coming up soon) and Ted mostly runs it as a one-man-show, so there are fewer people to spread the word. I kind of think that makes it all the more impressive though that he's managed to keep churning out updates as regularly as he has, considering that he has no co-hosts to put psychological pressure on him! He just really loves talking about the game. Good thing he's fun to listen to as well.
Oooo.... Another podcast!! You're famous!!
ReplyDeleteI know, right? XD I mustn't let it get to my head!
DeleteI am curious as to what your experience will be like pugging 50+ Master Mode FPs. I have been kicked from groups for only wearing 162 gear when I try to explain that I'm bolstered and it's the highest level gear for my level I get kicked before the first trash pull.
ReplyDeleteWhat server do you play on? I've never seen the people of TRE care much about gear, so I can't say I'm worried.
DeleteJedi Covenant. I have been kick a couple of times at the start of the FP for not being 70 I leveled by doing mostly heroics so I had level appropriate blue gear for my level 55 scoundrel healer I prefer the traditional FP trinity to tactical bring what you got.
