To specifically talk about how to best make use of "unsieged" (i.e. unburied) lurkers can be rather tricky, if you ask me. ;D

As a terran I have difficulty determining when I should attack with mech in TvZ. Could you talk about timing of attacks? When to be aggressive/defensive?

Why has 9 hatch 9 pool gone so completely out of style in ZvP? I've always thought it was a very balanced build and it gets a lot of hate I don't think it deserves. What do you see as the merits/flaws of this opening?

I request a second part for the Mechanics :D If you've got the time to do these, with your daily show going on and all.
For example, you could go into detail in what different ways you can micro certain units, or if you have any tips on how to macro in an efficient manner.
Some sub topics I came up with:
Small tips on how to make your M&M-group survive easier in TvZ.
How to maneuver with the protoss ball.
How to work up a good rhythm between macroing and microing (i would really need this one, I always tend to forget my macro when things heat up no matter how hard I try).
How to split workers, if there is a special "trick" to do it or learn it faster.
...Or any other topic outside of the basics, really.
I've got really horrible mechanics, that's why I ask  My M&M balls tend to get slaughtered, just because I'm not sure how and when to retreat or stand my ground.
Thanks for your work!

thanks for all the usefull info

Mechanics part 2 coming? :D:D:D

Cheers on the PodCasts! Personally, I enjoy the style as well as the content.
I've always been curious about what's at stake in the layout of your base. Would it be possible to get a cast on what decisions you are / should be making when base-building?

The content is still relevant and Day[9] is awesome

Day[9], for the mechanics podcast about hotkeys, and you mention utilizing all of the numbers.
Can you comment on Jaedong not using the 8-0 keys and being so godly?
Also a tip: clean the gunk off your mouse. even on laser/otical mouses, the gunk builds up on the bottom. this increases friction, and makes you "jump" when trying to make slow or fine movements.

Asian hands. Flexible hotkeys.

these are really helpful.
thanks man!

As a brand new player learning from scratch, thank you very much! Resources like the ones you are providing are perfect for me, and I'm sure that even as I improve I will gain even more from these podcasts.

Hey day[9], could you make podcasts about sc2. Maybe about each race (strong,weak points) and/or about strategies?

The day[9] daily has replaced this, so I wouldn't expect another one. That said the podcasts can be quite helpful for SC2 since they explain his thought process he uses for that game as well.

Hey, Day[9] can you put a list of song you use for the intro? The music is really cool techno and I want to know the songs names. Thanks!

I am bumping this thread because these podcasts are an invaluable and what seems to now be an underutilized resource for learning both Brood War and SC2.
For anybody that seeks to improve at the newly released SC2, I suggest you listen to these podcasts. Perhaps the ones regarding certain maps (i.e. heeartbreak ridge) are less applicable than others, I find that once my friends, people on IRC, livestream, etc., etc., have watched all of the Day9 dailies they want something else to check out and I am constantly recommending these to them.
It seems not a lot of people know about these...they are oldies but goodies.
IMO they are full of far more in-depth and analytical analyses than a lot of the dailies, especially given that with the dailies, I sometimes find myself far too "into" watching the game unfolding before my eyes, whereas these podcasts are audio only, and not full of distracting things *ooh shiny siege tanks!*.
Definitely recommend you give these a listen, and hope/feel that this is a worthy bump.

I really wanted to hear the 2hatch vs 3hatch podcast.
Especially now since Flash's TvZ timing when zerg goes 3hatch muta.
