I thought Waterboarding was when you dunked someoneās head in water until they almost drowned.
I was wrong.

donāt you LIKE Klondike waterboarding?
Hokay, several things hereā¦
Eljay:
Apologizes for behavior in the last episode
Proceeds to yell at Meso āYouāre garbage!ā
Shout-out to Political Slimeās guest appearance at 55:40. (You can even tell itās him because itās an LJ impersonation.
Finallyā¦Is it just me
Or are these podcasts getting more edgyā¦
Sort of like 2006 
[spoiler]As for real thoughts, donāt hate on the Ignition Trilogy. I joined during that phenomenon that was storytelling, and I was six years short of being one of those edgy teens.
And donāt hate on Team Prpl. If I remember, by the end, the Prpl faction of Team Eljay had a greater amount of soldiers (including myself 
) than there were plain Team Eljay members.[/spoiler]

I was on Team Eljay not for Eljay, I was a secret member of Team Meso.

Well anyways. This was easily one of my favorite episodes. But how is Meso so well liked in the community. He can be worse then Eljay.
But Eljay did go pretty dark this episode.

2006 was the year that got me into Bionicle, and as a result Iām far more attached to the Inika characters than the Nuva. itās also not fair to call the piraka āgeneric gangstersā when they werenāt even remotely like that outside of the toy commercials.
That said, on all other counts I have to agree with Eljay. Mesoās being ridiculously negative about a line that has made better use of ccbs that hero factory did in 5 years. Honestly, itās pretty churlish to be THE go-to Bionicle podcast, and be bashing it constantly.

Itās not really helping your case to use the opinion that BIONICLE āmade better use of CCBSā as a reason why I shouldnāt be so negative about it. Completely discounting the fact that BIONICLE wouldnāt have the great sets it does now if HF hadnāt beta-tested the system, I donāt even complain about the sets all that much. Most of them are great successes in my book; there are some sets which I loathe, sure, but I take far more issue with the marketing and storytelling side of things, and I think Iām 100% justified in that.
Perhaps I will spend the next several podcasts fanboying about how awesome Tahu is, or talk at-length aboutā¦ how good Journey to One was, or something? Maybe thatāll balance the scales.

For the record, I think that Bionicle 2ās story and marketing have been lacklustre, both in comparison to g1 and in general. itās more how you typically say it, like it almost seems funny to you. Maybe thatās just me misreading tone.
I also do you the credit of assuming you wonāt stoop to straw-manning me as someone who tunes in for baseless fanboying, rather than someone who perceives your expectations as too high. You make very valid points on the whole, but when you got to the point of criticising 2001ās story for its simplicity, I was left wondering just what you had been expecting, and thinking that it was probably not a reasonable expectation given what this franchise is.
