Wow, HotRod was incredibly rude in that thread. I have to say I back TB's side in that discussion.
What's the difference between a podcast about WoW or film? Nothing as far as I can see, it's just people talking about the things they're into. Why disparage someone for being enthusiastic about something they like?
That's about on level with knocking someone's books out their hand and shouting, "NERD!"
