So...anybody rip it?



...

Well, hold on, read some first hand reviews and eh -- technical issues, bad audio mix, ADVERTISING MIXED INTO THE HOST SEGMENTS (i shit you not). Maybe it would be better just to wait until the actual ep comes out, which people are saying maybe Monday.

When you mention "ADVERTISING MIXED INTO THE HOST SEGMENTS", do you mean spruiking/shilling products or services?  As in "embedded advertising" as it was known as last-decade, or the "Smoke Lucky Strikes!" stuff seen in 1950's TV?  a.k.a. "product placement"?

As for "bad audio mix", what does that mean, if you don't mind?

Thank you for your candor.

It sounds like there is product placement, but not just the kind where they all open a Coke, it sounds like the host segment goes on and on including whole segments with advertisement for the product.

Bad audio mix as in the audio was not synced, off by a bit, and the riff was loud and movie was low (which I know happens frequently even on RiffTrax and Shout releases and I know it bugs me a lot!)

Thank you very much for your answers.  As for the shilling, I hope the reports you've seen are exaggerated.  Trace and Frank had Jackey Neyman-Jones, the daughter of "The Master" in Manos, on their show to help *her* after she'd been screwed by that production and help her "get a little back".  That kind of spruiking I can approve of, that is what a pair of mensches do.  Sadly, what you seem to have heard seems quite different.  I hope that is incorrect.

As for the audio issues?  What you describe is unacceptable for even a YewTewber with only 70,000 followers.  And you are not alone in frustrations with audio-mixes.  Again, thx for your reply.  I hope you have a lovely week-end.

How so?  Trace has used "mensch" before.  You don't respect Trace?

"Mask off"?  Are you making an ethnic or religious pre-supposition, based on the use of a term which has become used in common parlance within the USA and other countries/cultures for decades?

By the way, can someone explain to hazzywhatzit what the term "mensch" means in terms of Positive Jewish Culture, especially in the USA and Canada?  I mean Jon Stewart from the Daily Show has used the term, Gilbert Gottfried has used the term, Don Rickles has used the term... The notion that anyone would misinterpret the use of the term on a RIFFING board is, frankly, astounding.  But then again, dingleberries raised on twitter & facebook...  /throws up hands

BTW, Hazzy, my Great Grandfather's last name was "Isaacs".  One of my Godmothers was a Hungarian Survivor. I think you embarrassed yourself here by barking up the wrong tree.

Also, Hazzy, I'm intensely proud of the Jewish blood in my veins.  I merely wish I had more of it. 

I hope you find something in yourself to be proud of.

Wait a minute, didn't they just have a Kickstarter where they made millions of dollars to make a new season and now they're hawking products for even more money?

Apparently, there's already a replay of it available. So, someone better get to sharing it here.
