lololololol urrr s0 fukn witty brooo
Seriously though i dont think anyone can say with a straight face the show hasnt been a little brain decayingly boring with out him. Great to see him back to promote some interesting and funny discussion.

Oh snap. I really hope Incontrol does come back, missed JP's tweet earlier. Not like this hasn't been said 1000 times already but the show is so much better with him on.

Im sure many of us tune in for idrA

I hope Leah and Idra aren't on it, Leah doesn't add anything and Idra could but he doesn't say much other than complaining. Incontrol would be great, he's funny and states his opinions.

IncontroL is great sometimes, others it gets annoying. Can't get too tangential cause I still want them to talk about Starcraft

Well, I agree on IdrA, but I actually like Leah. I think she kind of represents "the masses" on the show, and I think she represents the viewpoint of a spectator well.
edit: and if incontrol is coming back, he had better not replace artosis

I feel like Idra adds in a unique pro gamer perspective that the pillars don't posses, and that's simply the difference in their level of skill. His understanding of the game is simply higher. I saw this when Naniwa came on too.

That's JP's job. And even though Leah does it better than JP she is way more replaceable. You can't have two non-players on a 4-person (+1, sometimes) show. Ideally that makes up half of the podcast but people want to hear pros talk about pro stuff, not noobs talk about what they think goes on with the pro stuff.

Wish there was a Korean progamer who was good enough in English to come on and would be willing to do it, that would be awesome for much the same reasons.
Although I still hold that a special SotG of JP. White-Ra, MC, and DRG would be awesome. 2 hours of understandable but accented and gramatically weird podcasting!

Sotg was incredibly beneficial for Geoffs position in the community, and he has acknowledged this several times. If any obstacles was cleared, then it would be a logical step for him to move back. He also adds value to the show. The one old friend i would really love back on sotg was CauthonLuck, but i guess we wont see him in sc2 anymore. I miss you cluck! Plus Geoff has a good time on SotG. But we all know he must have other motives(to destroy SotG from the INSIDE) Doing this and Lo3 would really kill his Tuesday though...that's like 4 hours of talking in one day and 4 hours not spent streaming/coaching/practicing.

Choya could do it but he's probably not the Korean people would want. DRG and Zenio also have good English.

Well, if you want to make that argument, no regulars on that show should be talking. Love Day[9] to death, but he doesn't compete. InControl 1-10 in pool play. Tyler, 0-10 in pool play. And I have no idea how Artosis plays, since he mainly casts (probably the only regular worth hearing).
And it's also nice not to have a complete, nerdy sausage-fest.

They're still pros. 2 months ago Geoff got 4th in MLG, Tyler ripped through the open bracket, and while they're not necessarily top tier pros you can't argue that they're on the same level as JP/Leah who are plat/gold respectively I believe.

...what? I could see it being legit 4 months ago, but IdrA STILL cries about zerg being weak when NesTea just went freaking UNDEFEATED in the GSL.
