We of course also have a brand new animated adventure highlighting the story of Burnie losing his cell phone in Australia.
During this week's podcast we mention that iTunes is holding a poll to decide what gaming podcast to highlight in September. You should totally vote for Rooster Teeth. We were winning by quite a bit earlier today but some other podcast has passed us. Show them who is boss!
The Creatures are very similar to Rooster Teeth, they do machinima, gaming commentaries and live action shorts. But their podcast is very unprofessional compared to yours. I hope Rooster Teeth wins.
I just want to say that you guys deserve to win. Creature talk don't deserve jack shit. They haven't uploaded a podcast in over a month. You guys are like always on time and there's a new podcast every week no matter what. I really hope you guys win! :D
EVERYONE! the creatures are in the lead by OVER 4000 VOTES! so if you have facebook post the link and tell all of your friends to vote for roosterteeth and send the link to all they're friends so they can vote for RT! and it would keep going over and over again!
It's a velodrome (veh-low-drome) not a "veel-o-dome"! They stop to get a good position which is behind the first sprinter. They want to slip stream behind to reduce their air resistance which means they use 30% less energy than the person in front, so they can reach a higher speed and overtake on the last lap. However sometimes, the person that's in front will start sprinting to surprise their opponent so the gap is bigger and slip streaming has less of an effect. It's all about tactics and sprinting ability. Read up on it more, it's really interesting!
Those are only the basic reasons why they do the strange stopping and then full on sprinting, there are many more factors as to why they do things that look odd at first glance... Sorry, I just love all types of cycling and thought I would give an explanation because you seemed confused! I'm surprised you've never seen it, I thought it was popular everywhere! Sorry if this is terribly written, i'm very tired!
It doesn't matter how long I have been with the Creatures and listened to the Creature Talk, but come on! They don't even do the Creature Talk anymore! The Rooster Teeth Podcast, on the other hand, is extremely funny compared to the constant down times of the Creature Talk. It is a shame SlyFoxHound mentioned the running on YouTube. Come on Rooster Teeth community, we got to pick up the slack!
About the podcast and airports. First off I love the PODCAST!! Two weeks ago I flew with my 89-year old grandpa and for some reason they let him bring nail clippers on the plane so Burnie maybe T.S.A. is soft on old people, but who knows. Also on our way back to Salt Lake City, we stopped in Atlanta and what TOTALLY blew my mind there was a smokers' lounge INSIDE the airport. Crazy Right?!?
I voted for Rooster Teeth yesterday went back to check today and it said I voted for Creatures. Perhaps this happened to others. I just can't see RT losing by that much.
Yeah Creature Talk is winning best of luck to you guys though! Just remember the Creatures got you most of the viewers in the RTX stream and helped you beat up kerry.
Gus, ive noted a few comments, etc by Burnie over the last couple of podcasts, that made me take extra notice and wonder if somethings have changed for him. Hope he's okay, cause like the rest of you guys your important to us. Give him all our best
reading some of the comments and apparently because I am from Canada I can't vote? Really wanted to help. Hope RT wins. Best podcast on the net in my honest opinion.

And as awesome and hilarious the podcast is, it is certainly not a gaming podcast. Gonna vote for Giant Bomb.
