If APOIAF were a proportional democracy, from the current stats no one person could rule alone. Mimi could form a coalition government with any one person. Kyle and I are a few seats short of a being able to form a power block for now, unless we paired with Ashley. But APOIAF is not a proportional democracy

I picked Kyle because he seems a lot like me, except a better actor and way better looking.

I dunno if I can pick a favorite but this current group might be my favorite combination
The other hosts were good, too but since subject matter can really drive a podcast, we're probably at the apex of things to talk about=good podcasts

By the way, we've added "Team Amin/Ashley/Kyle/Mimi" groups with the accompanying titles for those who wish to wear their particular devotion or allegiance with pride and the "Podcast Fanatics" group if you are just fanatical about the podcast in general ( viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1180&p=24308#p24308).

Linecom1 starts to really become the podcast's maester in residence, if re really can finish his new project ( viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1258)... Something I really can point out, is that the fanbase and the visibility in the whole aSoIaF-fandom have increased tremendously since the podcasts return from its 266-day-hiatus with episode 32 (Winter has come!). Since then you are working harder than before to always improve the podcast. The knowledge, number of hosts, length of episode and also the number of listeners have increased since then for sure. Regarding the hosts I don't want to start a discussion who is responsible for that. But the chemistry between the 4 regulars at the moment seems to be very good. I'm really looking forward to an episode with only you 4 again. But thanks also to the others (Nancy, Ash2, Chase, Chris, Aaron, Ben) - without them the history of aPoIaF would definetly not be the same... edit: 555! posts.

I love everybody, but for my favorite, that is Mimi for sure. Mimi is super smart and funny, and incredibly wicked hot. Mimi you are the most awesome person in the history of podcasting, and definitely the most beautiful. I hope your back to recording episodes with the rest of the rockin hosts soon.

Seriously though, each one brings something special to the table, like a band where the whole is better than the sum of it's parts. (also in this imaginary scenario, Amin's on drums, Ashley on keyboards, Kyle with the axe and Mimi is, of course, lead vocals and frontQueen and y'all tour the country singing game of thrones songs. Oh and Larry is the cowbell "I got a fevah, and the only cure is more cowbell) It's better when everyone's there. Although, the recent stand ins have filled in admirably.

There isn't anyone that brings the podcast down with the current group. Can't say the same for some of the older lineups.
Mimi is a great host, Kyle is great as the "new" guy, Ashley - somebody needs to defend Sansa. Amin wins for me though with his amazing theories and shocking amount of knowledge.
Great stuff guys, keep up the good work.

A quote from the shoutbox (from Redwoody) - it is nice Redwoody wrote: I must admit that Ashley is quite keen. And you really can't go wrong with more Amin. Good Kyle adds a lot to ANY scene. But fuck ME, I miss the damn Podcasting Queen.

mimi is door creaking fabulous. Her potty mouth is awesome. Super feisty and fun to listen to. Since I am married, she must be my paramour. Keep table flipping. I am more of a book thrower. After I read the RW, my 3 year old son could only say "Hodor" after being hit with the book. Kyle the lemoncake killer brings good humor to the podcast and has more knowledge than his "shocking lack of knowledge" he does very well when interviewing too. It is great when Amin gets you to act out the lines in the book. Amin shocks me sometimes because he seems so mellow and then comes out with a hilarious sex theory or Roz comment. You talk about Roz all you want. Ashley I am with you on middle finger. Much better in the books as is Sandor. I am not choosing a favorite.

At least you don't sound perpetually congested as I apparently do. EDIT: And for the record, I think your voice sounds lovely, Mimi.
