Good discussion. Last week was a little better though.

you guys should think of implementing a short call-in session.
either that, or a Sexman feature!
June 4th, 2008 at 8:47 am
No Sexman please. He was funny because he was this nerdy kid with a dirty mouth that was passionate about what he did. Now it’s just some nasal voiced kid that seems like he doesn’t even care about reviewing anything.
Call in sessions wouldn’t really work I don’t think. Maybe a Q&A session where people can submit questions and get them asked DURING the podcast. That’d be best I think.
I kind of tuned out during the Sex and the City, and Rambo talks this week.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. You can always shoot an email to slashfilmcast@gmail.com, and if it’s worth discussing we’ll talk about it on air. It may be worth doing some sort of dedicated Q&A section, but we’ll see. The main show is already strapped for time as it is ;)
As for call ins, I think a voice mailbox that we pull questions through may work better, but again we’ll see.

probably the only place where you will find a group of guys openly talk about sex and the city

Good job putting it up on itunes.. I missed the live broadcast discussion about lost.. some good points from everybody in that discussion.
About the sex and the city talk, I agree with graham, although I would never watch it, it was interesting to hear a bunch of guys openly talking about it it a mature manner…
