Wouldn't it be Double Tres? Or am I missing something?

Hey guys,
I listen to the podcast on the bus to school all the time and have to try really hard to not laugh out loud. I especially love Eli's news/panic room sound effect, it gets me every time. Just wondering if any of you could remake any movie to make it better, which movie would it be and what would you change?
P.S. you should use the theme songs for Josh and Eli more often.

As per Joel's request.

What is your opinion on the portrayal of gay characters on shows like Queer as Folk, Will and Grace, etc. (I know, two very different shows. I'm just throwing those names out there).

ok 2 questions, hopefully 1 will be picked.

first off for Joel, to my understanding you've been born, and raised in Texas, why on earth do u not have a southern accent? (this mite have been answered in an earlier PC, as i've only been listening since PC11)

Secondly for Eli/Josh: how does a Co. decide which game developers work on which games?, b'c to my understanding if you work on a successful game you get a nice bonus, so wouldn't everyone want to work on a game that's going to be successful i.e: Halo2 Gods of War 2, etc.

Any 'little things' that piss you off? e.g. Toilet Paper being placed in the 'improper overhand fashion' (makes me angry)…

With the recent success of dung heap movies like "Beverly Hills Chihuahua", do you think Hollywood is going to begin a downward spiral of making nothing but shit movies, or is this just an ebb in the general flow? Because, really? That movie was top two weeks in a row? Who the hell is going to see this crap? And what studio 'head' do I have to blow to make it stop?

I sure don't think you should get to vote, but I also don't think we should be doing all the shit we do to fuck with people around the world, so it's anyone's call.

My top 3:

#3 - Union workers who vote republican.
#2 - People that dig in their purses for the exact change, "wait, I think I have 97 cents" and count it out.
#1 - People who write checks in stores - Really? WTF is wrong with you? Do you really think that there is a possibility that they will lose your check, or that it won't be deposited for a few weeks?

This is bollocks. If someone doesn't want to hear the song then they don't have to buy the game.

If there was an insulting song about fat white agnostics in the game I wouldn't start bitching about it.

That piece of festering shit was successful? Oh god. Yet another reason to never read the entertainment section of google news

Don't forget the skinny white agnostics! I can understand the recall, but yeah, if they wanted to I would fully support not changing it. I just wish I had a copy of one of those (and a PS3) for that nice rare game scent.

What is your proudest impromptu action? In other words, what's the most badass thing you ever did or said in the spur of the moment (quotes from your own personal movie).

If you listen closely, Joel has a very slight drawl. Also, people in Dallas do not follow the rules of normal Texas, according to Dave Kellet.

I was driving around w/ a bunch of friends in redneck country where my friend has summer house and she was telling us how redneck these people were and how they burned trash and other things in their yards. In total nonchalant fashion I say "As long as it's not crosses, I'm OK." Since I'm the only non-white person in the car and everyone loses their shit.

Who would play you in "Sharksplode: The Hijinks Ensue Movie"?
Also, seeing as international politics is so tighly linked and the last couple of 'casts have involved better discussions than "real" political shows, do you guys feel that we should have a say in the elections (i.e. Europe having a vote for the President etc.)

Philly checking in, kudos to you in the last castcast for mentioning how one is supposed to properly order a cheesesteak. BTW the purported "originators" of the Philly cheesesteak (Pat's and Geno's) often rank towards the bottom in the annual ratings. My fave is Jim's on South Street, but I digress.

Question: Why aren't you guys developing some of the podcast bits into a treatment for a comedy show of some sort? (perhaps you are - I don't know) With such hits as: Schindler's List - the musical, Tax Terminator, Space Porn, etc. etc. you can't miss.

Keep up the good work and remember:

"Hello fellow American. This you should vote me. I leave power. Good. Thank you, thank you. If you vote me, I'm hot. Taxes, they'll be lower… son. The Democratic vote is the right thing to do Philadelphia, so do."

It'd be a fair trade: we vote for yours, you vote for ours. After all, the choices made by the current administration affect us as much as you.
