For the record, as no doubt there will be some that think i am attacking this due to not being a podcaster or whatever else reasoning they can assume, I officially pulled out of the dealings way before the podcast debut. There’s no motive other than equality.
Because you knew no-one would want you when you just sit and play video games in the middle of conversation.
Ofcorse i forgot that you are privy to every detail of my life, that you understand and know exactly whats going on at every moment and never miss a detail.
I have more important commitments and couldn't assure the time even if i was a presenter and as such i spoke to Arby and withdrew from the runnings.

So basically, you think one of the two Scots should be randomly fired from their own project and Spyro hired, even though Spyro himself hasn't asked for that or expressed any unhappiness, and doing that wouldn't make any sense? If the only thing you can find to complain about with the podcast is the geographical location of the presenters then they're probably doing a lot right!
Referring to people as “Scots”? They are people, either use their names or call them Scottish people, You wouldn’t go to Veitnam and start calling people Charlie now would you?
Your ignorance is unbelievable; I stated very obviously that I used Spyro as an example. At no stage have I said that people should be fired and at no stage have I said I would prefer Spyro, he was an example of a person from another geographical part of the UK for arguments sakes, to take something so literal despite obvious signposting that the person was an example isn’t something I’d expect from you of all people.

I couldn’t agree more, it’s taken far too long for this to come to fruition and I’m glad to see it’s so popular BUT the problems I’ve addressed haven’t even been glanced at let alone taken into consideration.

I'm honestly surprised by the extreme level of political correctness. Surely the best people for the job should be chosen, rather than just selecting people by distribution. We're the 'United' Kingdom. Even if the entire cast was from Scotland (or England, or Wales...) it would be a legitimate UK podcast.
I’ve already explained the flaws In that argumental point. Please try again
The best person from each country in the UK is all that was needed

The only reason equal geographical distribution is the issue here is because you have latched onto it as such, Tachi. Should I start demanding there is an even split of men and women? It honestly sounds like sour grapes, and the fact that absolutely nobody else has a problem with it only emphasises that.

Its something that had to be addressed, and to use such a word as “latch” deems that you see me equal to that of a symbiotic creature or a limpet, Cheers for that.
As I stated in my closing paragraph, this isn’t from sour grapes as I myself pulled out from the runnings way before the decisions on who where the podcasters was even made, I have my reasons and to this day they still stand so I feel no jealousy towards people who did get the placement.
As for female/male equality, there Is 1 easy way to solve both gender and geographical equality – get a female presenter from wales on the team.
