Why no talk about Bacon Wrapped Skulls and Ones?

I've now listened to all 3 episodes of what is no longer the newest podcast and it's fun. Mike Vag I believe was suffering from all sorts of memory loss as he tried to recall BAWSH Bowl at NovaCon. I think it was due to the blinding memory of his pitch. It tends to push all other thoughts out of your mind.

Are these guys active on TFF? I met Mike (I was one of the NY guys) and we talked about running the circuit up and down the coast.

Yeah, I listened to and emailed them to offer them my Rumble in the Jungle!

Forgot to mention them in my podcast roundup :)

Another Podcast? Come on!

Yet another podcast has popped up in the US of A in Richmond, VA. Myself (Nate Ball) and Mike Vag are in charge of the Bacon-Wrapped Skulls and Ones from the East Coast! Hopefully you guys enjoy us and we're not just gumming up the works with "yet another podcast". Check us out on iTunes and on Facebook, send some ideas, what you think we should chat about, etc. We would love to hear from you guys!

In BWSO Podcast #3, he talks about the NOVA Open and the fact that there were some great guys from New York who came down. Do y'all have any tournaments going on up there?

The delay in announcing ourselves to everyone was because we didn't want to let everyone know about us after the first podcast and then decide we couldn't do any more or make it a regular thing. But this is going to be a regular thing and we want to help promote Nuffle's Glorious Game to the rest of the world. Or at least the east coast of the US.

Even as a vegetarian, I'm looking forward to checking this out!

Hey there,

I've only finished the first two so far and I think you guys are great. I've found myself smiling along as I am listening to your show. Thanks for keeping it clean, too. I appreciate being able to listen over open speakers without worrying about offending my wife or surprising my kids. Looking forward to checking out episode three this weekend.

Cheers,
-Dan

@SunDevil - we are on a world mission to convert the vegetarians of the world to come to the dark side. Seriously. We are in talks right now of deep frying our bacon-wrapped hot dogs (we are from the South after all).

@Arclight - we decided to go clean especially for that reason. But, to be honest, it does require some editing and willpower on our part!

I'm happy with cursing, but I do appreciate the fact that my kids can listen to this without fear. I love the other podcasts, but I just can't listen to them around my kids, that's all.

As for NY, just me and Andy (who played only in the sanctioned tourney). Larry (who won the night tourney) and Matt were actually Virginia folks. I'm trying to get them to hook up with the DUBBL league since they're in Fairfax and Loudon counties respectively.

I'm in the midst of organizing a NY tournament. Trust me, I'll be reaching out to you guys. It'll be a one-day four game affair. Probably in the spring.

I wanted to post that I too am liking the podcast a lot.
I already gave them a hard time about not letting us know and not having twitter, so I'll be nice here. :-)
Now I just need to learn French to listen to the last remaining podcast...

Glad to have another BB podcast out there and another clean one at that!

I'm not bothered by swearing at all. But the fact that 3DB avoids it has always made it sound more "professional" to me, and I could see it being more accessible to newer players.

So I don't think the lack of bad language should at all restrict the enjoyment of a podcast.

Yes Arnold, I know. You don't curse either. I didn't mean to lump you in with Vinny and Epstein. (I'll let the Both Down and Zlurpcast guys figure out which one is which. :lol: )

Both have majestic hair, so either is fine.
