Ah, so one of those 150+ random events that none of us co-hosts have come across yet... Nice.

Do you remember any specifics?

Ok, episode, liked the GalCiv report.
I have to say the geek in me loved the Dr. Who reference by Mackie.
So to the team.

It would however be nice for the guest co-hosts to talk some more, or at least stick till the end, they can add some…. variety to the show. Try getting some new voices in or get some of the quasi-celebs we have here on poly. I know I would like to hear more from Blake and Ming or even Lord Shiva ( ).

The reason OzzyKP (Alex) said as little as he did here was due to technical -- particularly microphone -- difficulties. It is also why it was problematic for him to stay until the end of recording.

For the record, LS has never been on the show so I don't know how you could "hear more" of him like Blake and Ming...

Off-course I know LS has never been on the show. I'm the pathetic guy who’s listened to every episode made… remember?

Anyhow I phrased that awkwardly. I meant to say I'd like to hear from poly celebs, those who have been on polycast in the past and those who haven't been on yet.

BTW And aren't you ashamed that you haven't had Lord Shiva on the show yet?

Time will tell.
