Buzz Out Loud Lounge: Please don't sing molly
Please don't sing molly
by glentner - 7/26/07 11:37 AMPlease don't sing molly, that was Veronica's thing. It's not cute when you do it. I'm sure you think you were doing it first, but it just sounds like you are trying to replace Veronica.
And enough with the fake little laughs. You don't have to fake "he-he" whenever you say something that you intend to be funny. If it's funny, I'll laugh, I don't need an annoying laugh-track.
Singen Verboten?

Methinks someone has a crush and is a little bitter.
*pats head*
Stop listening to the podcast
by Alegoo92 - 7/26/07 11:44 AM In reply to: Please don't sing molly by glentnerIf it annoys you that much. We as the BOL community do not tell the podcasters what to do, we appreciate what they give us every day. You're just being rude.

by glentner - 7/26/07 11:51 AM In reply to: Stop listening to the podcast by Alegoo92It's called feedback, alex. And sometimes it's not all butterflies and puppy-dogs. As an adult you learn to listen to criticism, then decided if you wish to take anything from it, or disregard it.
You're not giving constructive criticism
by Alegoo92 - 7/26/07 12:16 PM In reply to: reply by glentnerYou're just insulting the hosts and treating them as if they're little kids that can't make decisions on their own. I'm pretty sure if Molly tells a joke, she can go "he he"... Who cares if it's a "Veronica-thing"? Sometimes people rub off on you, I'm sure it can happen when you spend hours with them nearly every day.
Once again, BOLers constantly give feedback to the hosts. But, as an adult, you have to learn to do it in a respectful and reasonable manner. I guess you have yet to learn this.

i totally agree
by mabedan - 7/26/07 12:34 PM In reply to: Please don't sing molly by glentnershe's not a good singer
and another point, she LAUGHs too much, and the things she laughs at aren't so funny...
and after all, she's not so funny, when she tries to be...
This kind of thing is really offensive.
by merrybrown - 7/26/07 9:33 PM In reply to: i totally agree by mabedanMolly is just being Molly, and I like that.
I got really tired of hearing "oh they don't like it when I..."
right after they did something. I would rather the podcast proceeded more naturally. Let Molly be Molly!
(NT) ^That's not polite ;)
by Nicholas Buenk - 7/27/07 6:28 AM In reply to: i totally agree by mabedanPerhaps...
by dro0001 - 7/27/07 3:22 AM In reply to: Please don't sing molly by glentner...you should tell Molly what she can and can't do that Veronica did. Is she allowed to like cats or bacon?
i agree
by mabedan - 7/27/07 5:54 AM In reply to: Perhaps... by dro0001but we can comment her, can't we? 
when we comment someone, it means we care about that person...
We're what they call in business a 'stakeholder'
by Nicholas Buenk - 7/27/07 6:27 AM In reply to: i agree by mabedanArguably, anyway meaning with an interest in the show as listeners and it wouldn't exist without us. I think we have a right to complain.
Of course it costs nothing to be polite 
Agreed...
by JBodamer - 7/27/07 7:41 AM In reply to: We're what they call in business a 'stakeholder' by Nicholas BuenkThere is a fine line between constructive criticism and condescending criticism. It could have been worded much better.
That being said, I think what is coming across is Molly and Tom trying to adjust to the new situation. It's tough to fill "space" normally filled by 3 people... especially space normally occupied by someone with as much charisma as V. But I still think the show is as good as ever, and Molly is great. I mean, have you seen the Buzz Report? She's plenty funny and interesting all on her own.
All Good Points
by milkky - 7/27/07 7:58 AM In reply to: Agreed... by JBodamerI would also toss in that while everyone is adjusting, it would be good if T&M didn't feel their every move was being placed under a microscope and weighed on pre- and post-V scales. Let 'em have a few minutes to get their balance without adding to the self consciousness they probably already have. I suspect they are often their own worse critics, which is pretty professional of them.
And, I'll take this chance to say, I haven't thought they were off balance at all anyway. Feel like they hit the ground running--haven't been disapointed in a single episode in the PV era. Were there any individual moments that I thought didn't sparkle? Sure. But I don't have any show that I listen to that I see as bang-on 100% of the time. It's a package and overall I think it's a great one.
