Everybody needs to be on Biss's phone plan. He comes through like he's sitting next to us.

When i'm not in hotels, we come through pretty good for using bottom of the line equipment. I've had people act surprised when they find out we're not in the same room.

Especially considering we're both using USB headsets, it is remarkable. It helps that we're Skype-to-Skype. Most of the shows with Biss are recorded with all of us on Skype which really helps. I may start making that a requirement for guests on our shows because, man, the bad cell phone thing is really starting to irritate me.

The interview is awful too, sorry I linked it. Thought it would be a little bit better than it is.

Re: BTR, that's the reason Jon (Lefty) and I left and stopped doing 643. Even when he had a microphone and we did it in the same room it still sounded like we did it through a 40-foot long PVC pipe. Just shit audio quality, which was cool when it was free, but when they started charging monthly we were done.

I'm saving up right now and hope to have some time of microphone/mixer combo in the next few months. We'll also just have to be more demanding of our guests that they have clean audio, do the interview in a quiet space and re-connect the call if there's even a hint of lower call quality.

Let me know if VSN can help out with helping you get that.

I see Steph using The Rock's tactic by writing her lines down on her hand.

It's awful having her back on TV and cutting promos on a weekly basis.

Heyman/Punk segments will NEVER get old. Heyman in a scooter is priceless.

Heyman is money, that was a great segment.

Haven't watched Raw in awhile, but do try and read the thread whenever it is on or the day after to see if anything youtube worthy happened.... I did just catch Daniel Bryan go off on Roman Reigns. That was awesome, DB was going nuts. Crowd loves the guy. Interesting match going on right now.

You've also missed a great segment with Heyman and Punk with Heyman on a scooter.

Hoping TNA lets Hogan's contract expire.

Considering Jarrett was backstage at last weeks Impact and attended the production meeting, that's a safe bet to assume at this point.

Hogan's not a draw anymore...there is no need to pay him like he is one. There is no reason for a non-wrestling talent to be the highest paid guy in the company. His name brand, PR savvy, and his established pop culture figure haven't led to increased exposure of TNA...and if it has with some weird metric, it doesn't justify his price tag. TNA, after a few years of Hogan is still at that token 1M viewership number.

TNA needs to tuck tail, go back the Impact Zone and charge $5 a head to walk in the gate (you can subsidize it with a $5 voucher off merch if you want so its "free") and cut the fat from the top of the roster. No one in TNA is a draw, so you gotta cut down the costs at the top just like you trimmed fat at the bottom with talent that wasn't used.
