why stoked/maverick is the best

so given that we had a lot going on this weekend in terms of announcements and drama, and everything else under the sun here in the forums.. lol..

one thing stuck out to me in all of the live stream coverage.. firstly, there are some hot chicks working some of the other podcasts.. and secondly, mav will always give it to you like it is..

sure, while they were interviewing he let the devs do there thing.. only asking a few questions he knew were not going to be polular with them..

but when the devs left, and he had air to fill, he filled it with what HE thought about the announcements.. that is rare in the other podcast/cryptic advertising shows..

most other shows and hosts kiss butt and blah blah blah.. elijiah was pretty softcore as per the usual.. throughout the whole thing..

but Mav took the time to give us a real painting of what could be going on.. he cited past releases, and how they worked out, and he said basically, if they pull it off great, but its probably not going to be exactly as the dev team is envisioning its going to be..

now, this isn't about weather the content will be good or not.. what its about is the fact that Mav expressed this, while almost every other podcaster will just sit there and reiterate what the devs said, and not actually give you insight on what they think. other podcasters are afraid of making enemies, or pissing off cryptic..

stoked may feel chopped together, and a little less professional throughout, but, its real, the host is real, you know what he is feeling about whatever topics are being addressed. and that's what makes stoked the best.

keep it up Mav. I look forward to your continueing coverage of delta rising, and stoked will be my only podcast from here on out..

    My Old Blog about things that could and should have been added when I wrote it. Not sure what I want to do with it now. I'll just keep it available now that most of it is outdated.

    Or whatvev. Yeah, I guess I just want more detailed details. Not Mav's fault for the gaps in info. It is infuriating how vague they are. They can tell us things without ruining the big reveal.

    true, but cryptic has always been well, cryptic lol... unfortunately, people react in a way that they think we like being teased with info...
