    I really like the idea of musical interludes, but could Nick maybe edit them to about 10 seconds so i don't have to skip through them?

    I would like the idea of a diffrent intro song but I am uncreative so doubt I could come up with anything

    I really hope the musical interludes are shortened. I like them being put in but the first time I heard them it just draaaaaged. I haven't heard this episode yet but from previous comments I'm assuming it's about the same.

    Nick keeps giving me funny phrases to put in my forum signature.

    Y'know QWOP is easy to glitch by doing the splits and then twitching all the way to the end. Our Game Design lecturers at University got everyone to play it to demonstrate different gameplay mechanics and we quickly got to 100+ meters.

    Just sayin' :p

    Brad you should add in the Nier 8 bit soundtrack. That would be rad.

    I think the music length is good as is. Music is good for you.

    I'm honestly a little bit confused by these musical interludes. It's a podcast - read: not live. You can edit it. It's not as if I have to wait for you guys to get back and get ready to talk about the news, while you take a break disguised as a 25 second music clip. Personally, I say you transition from the end of the discussion segment with a line or something, play a 5 second chiptune that fits in with the intro theme, and then move onto the news segment. Or ditch it altogether.

    Dammit, whats with everyone whining about the musical interlude? Its actually quite pleasant, and makes it sound pretty professional.
    But whatever, guess there goes the nice music, since I'm sure there'll be more complainers than complimenters, like most things in life.
