Survived through 151 episodes of The F Plus and listened to some multiple times. One episode of Lou Reads the Internet? Soul crushed. Check out his stuff while F Plus is on small break.

On second though, maybe starting with the latest MLP episode was a pretty bad idea. :v:

Yeah, I need to get back on Lou Reads, but god drat if that man doesn't have one hell of a constitution to get through some of that poo poo. It's like dude's mutant power is a super high Internet threshold.

Yeah, sorry about the extended break here. We've been putting all of our effort into F Plus Live 3. Things should be returning back to our normal erratic schedule as we slowly recover.

The live recording was absolutely the most fun I've had doing this podcast. I can't wait to do it again.

The first Lou Reads episode I listened to was the cum on food one. Still not sure if that was the best or worst decision I could have ever made!

Best. The worst would have been any of the bugchasing or anal stretching episodes (there are at least two of each).

The most recent poz experience episode was one of the first episodes I listened to of his and the tasty smelly dick cheese discussion was the first time I've had to stop listening to a podcast for a couple hours to recover.

It really can't be said enough that Lou Reads is hardcore atrocity tourism. The F Plus cannot even begin to prepare you for what you will experience.

What a coincidence, I just got the recent poz episode. That was probably the closest I ever got to almost vomiting while listening to a podcast.

Same here. I can listen to any FPlus episode just fine and decided to try out Lou Reads. I think I made it 5 minutes into a description of some guy drinking piss from a urinal and had to stop to keep my lunch down.

Lou Reads gave me the "I need to go outside and take a walk" reaction I usually reserve for when someone doesn't label their pictures of beheadings and that sort of thing. I've started to block it out.

10/10, would check the episode description before downloading again.

CERTIFIED FRESH AS HELL DOC MAKER

Some of the episodes of Lou Reads are difficult to listen to because it's sometimes just posts that are a few minutes long and are just manifestos about gross poo poo that are really badly thought out and have lovely arguments. Like the "Arguments Against Bestiality & Why They Fail" one.

Lou still always reminds me of Weekend Web. Speaking of which, what happened to the attempt to bring Weekend Web back? I remember some people on GBS getting excited over the idea of looking at strange forums again, but I can't remember if something came out of it, I didn't actually follow it really.

Half of his stuff is from it anyway. I think that he said in one episode that one motivation for his podcast was that he missed out on contributing to the Weekend Web when it was still active.

There wasn't really a coherent idea beyond "Let's do the Weekend Web again!" Everybody brought little bits of content from random websites and basically did their own thing; there was none of the concerted "digging" that the Weekend Web always showcased. If people had decided on a few websites to really target and showcase in depth, it probably would have made it back onto the front page. As it happened, while a miscellaneous "grab bag" Weekend Web might have worked anyway, I can see why things never quite got off the ground.

It's a real shame. Since the Weekend Web stopped, this site's always felt a bit incomplete to me.

If you listen to some Lou Reads episodes he's pulled from threads in GBS. I believe there's a lovely christmas gift one he got from there as well as a few more. The only Lou Reads I ever had genuine trouble with was the Fetlife Anal Destruction episode. The first story on there about the guy wanting the most giant gaping anus of all time broke Lou as well by the sounds of things.

I was sort of curious too as to how many people ducked out early due to SRO. I myself was at the mercy of who was up for drinks at any given moment, as I had to unabashedly steal the seats of fellow F-Plussers.

I'm quite glad Lemon asked me where in the lineup I'd like to be, as pre-show discussions with the other readers made it clear I had probably the tamest reading out of all of them, which worked better as a crowd warm-up piece than it would have following almost any of the other selections.

There's some weird script on the site that locks up every once in a while. Just refresh and try again until it stops.

I clicked through the website again and I only seem to have problems with the newer, bigger title pics. The pages with the older episodes work fine. Specifically, about 2/3rds of the pics on a newer page will load while the rest just hangs. If I stop and refresh, everything loads fine.

I just got home from Minneapolis and found I have a problem similar to yours. It would say "waiting for available sockets" at the bottom of the page and just hang. Deleting thefpl.us cookies didn't fix it, wiping my browser cache seemed to do the trick. I'll let you know if/when I figure out more.

From the second food episode, one review of a terrible dish ended with "I'M EIGHT YEARS OLD AND I LIKE FRIED CHICKEN" and they felt it really captured the spirit of the people who made those foods.
