The Game Is About Glory Podcast

I am listening to (another) emergency pod, again before it is posted here (lol - i am ahead of you world time wise), and i pretty much agree with the points raised and discussed, TF will need time to accommodate/get used to juggling domestic and European (UCL) fixtures

We all know we need to build the squad to 'compete on all fronts' so this summer's activities will be very interesting - Cuti's tweet after club's TF announcement could prove telling but who can pay that amount of money? I really doubt we will get top, top players because DL won't shift the wage structure much, i foresee one or two players around 60 million pound mark.

I am excited to see how TF will develop the youngsters, and those on the fringes.

Thanks for listening so quickly, yes I agree with you!
 
Thanks guys for the latest pod and all the other pods. It always amazes me when you say it is season 5 or 73 or whatever, I always think it has just started.

In general I think the pod is absolutely great; if I can make one suggestion/plea for season 74, please try not to interrupt one another i.e. someone will start to make a point and another leaps in saying yeah no but and umm and derails the original point which must be quite demoralising, especially for those not on every week like Gareth, Ram, Ricky etc. Even without pause or hesitation someone will leap in and trample the original sentence. We are not animals, let a man breathe and make his point.

PS. Now that Paratici is back, please remember his name is Pa-RA-tici not Parra-TEEEchi.

But um... that sounds really critical but what the heck, I really like the pod and appreciate you guys doing it. Meant in the best of spirits.

As one of our mosty loyal listeners, every compliment and observation is keenly accepted, so thank you again and yes, I know what you mean...season 5 episode whatever certainly hammers home how many of these we've done.

On the point of interruption, absolutely, we can always do better in that regard, and we work very hard to try and give space to start with. However there is a genuine latency in riverside/zoom recordings which means we don't always see someone gesturing or raising their hand, etc. Our one regret is we cannot do it in person. I know from experience that pods done in person allow these personal dynamics to flow even more easily, and further, allow the dynamic of conversation to take root.

Again, as always, thank you for both your ears and your observations!
 
Thanks and that's a great point about the 'satellite delay' Steff.
I hear other podcasters saying there is software that can take out pauses of over a second (or whatever) so I guess one could allow more space for someone to articulate their point fully and then use software to take out any pregnant pauses. But I'm no expert.
Overall it is very good, I think it is just my very Englishness coming out, wherein I personally find being interrupted jarring.

Hahaha, indeed, in fairness I think Milo definitely works in your lane and does the work to try and eliminate those gaps/keep interruptions. I am the other end of the 'English' spectrum in so much as my finger remains in the air much of the time LOL...
