audio-only version of loaded

by zoredache - 9/5/08 12:03 AM In reply to: No ...but nothing against NDC by rosscbrown

}} I love NDC and I wish I could get Loaded as audio only as I love her voice. I say no only because I'm not too hot on having a 'regular' guest host.

If someone could make and audio-only version of loaded available I would really enjoy that as well!

Nope

She seems a bit naive and uninformed on the larger topics in the news. Yesterday, she said something like " we have a government in this country that doesn't allow you to charge just whatever you want for things". I was thinking, sorry, actually that's exactly what we have in this country and we're quite thankful for it.

Hey, it's a little harsh to judge her just by that but my sense is she's a bit arrogant and ignorant at the same time. A bad combo for commentary.

Not a fan of NDC

I'm not a fan of NDC. There isn't one thing in particular that I can point to but I do find myself skipping episodes of BOL that she is on. There is something about her voice and attitude that I can not stand. Yep I know its irrational, but that's my thoughts on it.

As far as regular guest hosts. I like the once a week idea but not every day. It's not as fun or exciting then.

Nooooooooooooooooooooo!

Wont matter either way.
I just dont listen to the show when she's on now as it is.
Nerds will be content and I wont break into hives. Everyone wins.

Natalie DelConte - Regular Guest Host, Yea or Nay?

YEA I do like her and I like watching her on Load Yes I want her on BOL as a co-host for once a week that would be great.

Yes But the IDSN doesn't help

I was thinking that the other post noting that NDC can't see the visual cues and also there is a slight delay means that I like my hosts/guests to be in studio with the rest of BOL crew and while it would be great to have NDC on regularly I rather have them be there with the rest of the BOL Crew.

Not yet

NDC may eventually be up to Jamoto's talent level, but she isn't yet. If they add rotating panelists, they have to be as talented as the rest of the crew or bring in a different set of knowledge. Otherwise the show's quality will be watered down.

I'd like to cast a HUGE vote for Wil Harris of channelflip.com. He is fascinating!

guests hosts?

by mementh - 9/5/08 9:45 PM In reply to: Natalie DelConte - Regular Guest Host, Yea or Nay? by arlohepz

Why are there gues hosts like this? is it that Cnet is planning to find more people that work together?
Or are they planning to promote more people (or a team) to CBS?

My opinion:

by Slikkster - 9/6/08 4:49 AM In reply to: guests hosts? by mementh

I think it accomplishes a couple of things, but mostly it accomplishes cross-promotion of the guest-host's show on BOL. It also makes for (potentially, anyway) a more conversational show with the proper complement of panelists, vs. being down one.

They should do a special show

With just one person. ;)

YEA but NO but YEA but NO but...

by gojeffrey - 9/12/08 7:06 AM In reply to: Natalie DelConte - Regular Guest Host, Yea or Nay? by arlohepz

I love Natalie's voice. I want her to record my voice mail greeting. I would listen to her read the NYC phone book aloud.

That being said, I'm not too keen on the idea of having a different guest host on BOL every day. It does seem to disrupt the rhythm that JaMoTo have when it's just the three of them, however I do enjoy the occasional guest just to mix it up a bit.

Yes, I love these types of discussions! Love'em!

by kwahhn - 9/12/08 7:11 AM In reply to: Natalie DelConte - Regular Guest Host, Yea or Nay? by arlohepz

I'm ok with me to criticize the content of the show, but sweet jesus, leave the hosts and guests alone.

On a hypocritical side note, I'm sure I've done this once or twice too. Shame on me.

yeah leave the guests alone

by Boomstickedition - 9/12/08 10:54 AM In reply to: Yes, I love these types of discussions! Love'em! by kwahhn

The op main complaint is Natali's voice, how shallow is that? The only reason Molly and Tom have a great dynamic with each other is because they have been doing this for so long. Give the guests a chance and they can get their voices heard as well. Natali is charming and can bring a fresh perspective instead of having Tom and Molly agreeing with everything.

Not even a question. Of course she should be!

by Gene Moore - 9/12/08 10:19 AM In reply to: Natalie DelConte - Regular Guest Host, Yea or Nay? by arlohepz

Natalie is charming and eloquent and as much as I enjoy loaded, i seems very limiting for her. BOL gives her a chance to shine. I say definitely make her a regular guest host!
