Um



Recommended Posts

Best footy podcast around, it's a never miss for me. I haven't noticed the "um's" but even if there are too many remember these guys are not pros, they are doing it for the love of the club and to provide you content!

One day I will get around to that 5 star review...(Sorry don't use iPhone).

Better check with @Binmans PA and check we’ve got elocution sessions in @binman’s diary rather than electrocution sessions….

Yep, all booked in, in amongst the interviews for the forthcoming biography.

Thanks @binman, I hadn’t noticed that.

You might need to have a quiet word with your assistant, @Binmans PA😀

It wouldn't even let me add an apostrophe. But you're right, I buggered that up.

This is close to thread of the year so far. Really brilliant content peeps.

As others have noted, I see the poster has not put his/her/their hand in their/him/her pocket. Immediately disqualifies she/he/them (whatever) from having an opinion.

(When Parkin was coach of Carltank in the 1980's, he used to get lots of letters providing 'feedback'. He said he responded to the letters that came from paid-up members of the club only.)

And I have an opinion as well . . . for all three of the podcasters.

Could you please dumb-down the pod? It's way to intellectual for me. Can you be more like that nice Mr. Robinson on Foxtel maybe? It's all very well having stats at hand Rubbish Binny (name said with affection), but can you just tell me each week if that number 36 is going to kick any goals? And for next week's pod, can George tell me if he thinks Harmes from Melbourne can win the Brownlow this year? And Andy, May is my favourite player. Do you think he can win the goal kicking this year?

I haven't noticed, but I listen at 1.5 speed all my podcasts. 

The podcast producer could run it through Descript, really good at moving all the filler words and spaces in the final podcast version.

I have tried similar "remove" filler words and dead air apps before and they have always made it sound unnatural and creates a lot more post production work for me than I have time for.

Also I love the irony of a double post with advice on brevity. 😜

It's a baffling aspect of today's world that people get free content with hours of work behind it, yet complain as if they're a shareholder or something.

You do terrific work fellas and it has really grown beautifully over the years . If the pod had a flavour it would be umami 😘👌

Some posters have said that the plodders podders are not professionals. I vehemently disagree. I know of no other place I can get consistently high quality, intelligent, thoughtful and insightful analysis of the footy, not unembuggared by blokeyness, mindless product placement or just plain old imbecileness.

Improper noun then?

A long time ago but weren’t there proper nouns (capitalised) and common nouns though it probably now regarded as elitist or classist or colonialist or demeaning to use such differentiation.

i thought it just required three consecutive dots?

from first gogol search result (and thus, the only one that anyone will pay attention to):

An ellipsis ( ... ) consists of three evenly spaced periods and is used to indicate the omission of words or suggest an incomplete thought. In general, an ellipsis should be treated as a three-letter word, with a space, three periods and a space.
 

Scholars like my good self insist on little ums between our dots. Unspaced ellipses are for the likes of John Ralph, twitterists, and @WalkingCivilWar after too much caffeine.

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
