"evrythngevi1" hmm... a fellow Coheed nerd I see. I too am one among the Fence

Tyler Kaminski

4 preferred for me as well. Just doesn’t feel the same with 3

Alan Wake 2 - Alan WOKE

All cool! Yeah, I think it’s good to have a healthy skepticism of authority figures, but the challenge is in discerning the truth from the hokum.

Seth

Interesting I appreciate your opinion and input! I looked up his list of Conspiracy Theories and looked into what was said and I got to say.... most of the "Conspiracies" are most likely true at least in part. There are so many provable and true examples of conspiring between The Media, Big Intelligence, Big Politics, Big Tech. I'm surprised that people aren't more skeptical of everything in this 1984 dystopia we live. But thank you for the response. I have no social media or a smartphone with apps of any kind, so this is my only outlet for conversation like this LOL

James Anderson

All good!

StewDog

You're right, now that I re read it. My bad

Alan Wake 2 - Alan WOKE

Aside from the voice, the brain worm, the weird bear story, and the weird whale head story, he’s into way too many wacky anti-science conspiracy theories, specifically concerning health. That’s why the idea of him being in charge of anything health related is insane. IN MY OPINION. I’m not trying to debate anyone, those are just my reasons.

Seth

Can you please elaborate? He has a funny voice which is fair game, and I think it's fun to make fun of. But is there something I do not know about RFK that makes them vitriolic in their attacks on him? From what I know for he was legally attacked by the Democratic Party to the point of disallowing him to run at all. This all happened while they ignored the obvious health issues of Biden and instead those health issues to install their Coup candidate with no elections whatsoever. The same Coup candidate who Tulsi absolutely DEMOLISHED in debate in 2020 then Tulsi was literally DELETED from Google during the primary elections because she had so much steam. Is there something I missed with RFK JR that makes him an evil grifter because to me it looks like the Democratic Party (As an organization) is probably the most evil and most powerful corporation in the world.

Alan Wake 2 - Alan WOKE

If you can’t see the comedy in going after RFK Jr…I’m amazed you can listen to them at all lol. God bless, though!

Marc L

Good episode, but 4 people, even with 3 topics, is preferred.

Lou & Rei Loper

I completely agree, I don't mind the 3 person layout IF it's better, and when I see my favorite show suddenly juuuuuust squeak by the 2 hour mark? This does not spark joy. 😢

Lou & Rei Loper

Shout out to Cog and the "long set". That is absolutely my JAM. People meeting up from far apart, different styles and skill levels, multiple games. DAMN I love a long set! Watching someone go from feeling like they've got a leg up on you and they're better...only to find themselves somehow on a 5 game losing streak...and then just getting buried. That's my shit haha.

Chris Fazio

If they want the episodes to be shorter like this one from now on, then that’s understandable. But they seemed fully capable of getting four topics to fit into the 3-4 hour ballpark until very recently.

Dana Anderson

I am agreeing with the general consensus. 4 is prefered. It makes the show feel quicker, you cant let things slow down too much, keep the chats lively and at a good pace.

Diddy’s Dong Quest

3 hosts is good, but it seems like stelly has been too difficult to schedule. Biweekly would be dope.

Bartevious

Lmaooo yeah I figured it out shortly after. What a nothing burger. I get NDA shit is a big deal - but the Twitter shenanigans were ridiculous. Clear to anyone with a working brain that Matty did not intend for this account to get ahold of his footage. Game reviews are rarely done in a vertical silo either, most outsource editing. Just a nothing burger Edit: jaffes response on Twitter being disappointing is an understatement. I hate weak behavior that bows down to the mob. Grown man wanting Twitter approval.

Seth

This exactly, I do lean slightly right but I agree with some hate against people like the Quartering, but going after RFK Jr and Tulsi Gabbard who are 100X more liberal than any Neocon Democrat currently in the party... I can't stand them talking anymore nonsense.

Michael Mashpotato

Yikes, I didn’t mean that. I meant the NDA controversy that Matty went though yesterday and how that was garbage lol.

Bartevious

Garbage controversy? Edit: Google tells me it’s a Tony hinchcliffe joke. Is this what you’re referencing?

Bartevious

There’s been episodes where they cut the 4th topic due to already being over the 3-4 hour mark. I feel like it may just be an episode length thing.

Daddy T

100% man, don’t think they understand the brotherly dynamic they have going on, it’s great

Chris Fazio

The lack of Colin & Dagan together (regardless of the show) has been the biggest downside of the last several months, in my opinion

Chris Fazio

I could be wrong, but I sense there have been issues with scheduling for Constellation. It was originally going to be a bi-weekly show. Would reverting back to that be a way to keep the 4 guest format and ensure unique combinations/topics?

Michael Mashpotato

Matty is Nostradamus. It’s wild to listen to this episode the day after the NDA controversy from yesterday knowing this episode was recorded days ago. Shout out to Matty. Much love sent your way.

OrochiNewsTeam

I don't mind 3 speakers, but to mix it up, I'd prefer a different host each week. I love Dagan or Colin hosting when its 4 people. But if it's just 3, the rotating host element would make it more interesting and fresh.

George Hall

4 people is leagues better than 3 for Constellation, sure 3 guests is okay sometimes but I feel like 4 guests pools in more perspectives, especially considering it mixes in everyone from LSM. I would even go as far to say that Constellation should rotate its hosts - the episodes Chris hosts are amazing

Craig Carter

I agree about Derrick and I don't consider myself right wing.. i stopped listening because he seems just as obsessed/deranged about political shit as the people he's making fun of.. it's just tiring when the first 5 minutes he's immediately "hurr durr right wing chuds amirite".

Jimmer

What are you guys talking about?

Daddy T

Keep it 4 and have Colin on more regularly, not because of preferring him over Dagan but because we don’t get them together anymore with Knockback and they make a great duo. Just my two cents.

NeO JD

Honestly, I think if you were to ask LSM Stelly listeners, they prob want Chris on the most.

RektTek

Dagan essentially described Exoprimal.

Seth

Yeah It's election time so I got to skip a lot of episodes from Chris and Derrick's hatred for right wing people. Sween always agrees but seems to have 0 hatred and resentment, which is why I don't mind him.

Scott Yodoff

He will do the right thing . He is a real one . I’m 100% confident in him

Scott Yodoff

He must respond . He needs to take accountability if it is indeed true which I certainly question . I can accept a mistake , I can’t accept someone who ducks . Hopefully it isn’t true. If it is , so be it , but own it . Learn from it . It’s career defining time .

Scott Yodoff

Matty , I got your back . You must stand up . Hoping this is just a smear campaign because of the scathing DA review . Good , bad or indifferent there are moments in life when you are put to the test. Pass this , be open and honest . The real ones will be here if you are real with us

Eric the human

I'm totally fine with Colin not doing every episode. I think it allows for more combinations of people. But 4 people is definitely better than 3 I think.

Alan Wake 2 - Alan WOKE

Great episode, guys! Need more data to nail down if it’s specifically having three people, but this was nice. Felt more cozy and felt way longer than 2 hours, in a good way.

Lizurd

It’s crazy this episode talks about taking Ls and Matty might have to take the biggest one of all that bs is true :’(

Michael McCoy

Dude he definitely needs to respond. Bioware is already looking into the situation and his relationships with publishers are on the line.

Otacon_Ocelot

Weather the storm Matty don't respond

Garry

So glad your back Dagon you where missed I know it was hard to wrangle 4 people at the same time. Do what’s best for for you all as a group.

Garry

He did say on a podcast he needed a bit of a break doing all the shows as he was covering constellation for a few months.

Joe B

I understand that take but I would also argue that may just mean you need a break from the content. Though regardless, he hasnt been on the past 3. Im just wanting him more consistently as I was a big KF GOG show fan and that was mostly due to the interesting topics and input he brought ( and now brings for Constellation) to each show.

Brandon Tyler

lol I’m opposite I love Derrick but if I ever skip a few minutes ahead on snark tank it’s because of Sweeney

Alyssa

I've been listening to Colin since 2010 ish. Even want to KFL2 obviously a fan but sometimes less is more with him. He was really annoying on the last SS.

TGBahr

Last Stand is so incredibly good. These personal and introspective conversations require real maturity and strength in willing to be open, honest and vulnerable. I love these sections at least as much as pure gaming talk. Kudos, Champs 🙏

Noah Friscopp

Will be looking after this with great interest

Seth

Sweeny yes, never Derrick

Jimmer

Oh my bad. Didn’t realize 3 skipped episodes in a row was a “W”.

Joe B

Please keep it 4 people and get Colin back on more regularly.

Joshua Hinderscheid

Great guests but I wish the episode was longer and more than 3 people. I would’ve loved seeing Micah or Colin join in on this episode. Constellation is my favorite show and I hope that Colin can at least show up for 2 episode a month. If $ is an issue let us know! I’ll happily up my tier from $5 a month to $25 a month. And I’m sure fans of Colin would definitely up their tier as well to see him more on Constellation.

Alan Wake 2 - Alan WOKE

You guys should get Derrick or Sweeney on sometime. I need my two favorite Patreons to cross over.

Brian

I definitely prefer the four person layout. I'm guessing they wanted to try three, due to personnel reasons and perhaps having issues finding four available people for each week. Hopefully when Dustin is back full time that helps. It would even be cool to see guests from outside LSM occasionally make appearances if need be.

The Central Long Islander

Two hour Stelly??? The fuck is this

evrythngevi1

Three people sounded cool until I saw the runtime just above two hours. I for one like the lengthier runtime of the show. Perhaps a better idea would be to have someone different host it every week. The few times Chris has hosted have been great. I’d like to see others give hosting a shot. Dagan should always be there ‘cause Dagan.

Anthony H

So the game Matty was talking about reviewing was obvious Dragon Age. I wonder if he's going address the controversy about his Rook.

James Anderson

Hmm...I do feel you've missed the point of my comment...I'm talking about something entirely different. I'm fully aware they have a spreadsheet of past episode topics, and the conflicting scheduling.

john dorman

Miss having Colin on Constellation

StewDog

They have a spreadsheet tracking all previous topics. New topics arent presented until 4 people who can fit Constellation into their schedule that week reply to the topic email, which everyone gets to review beforehand so they can bring discussion to the table. They have talked about this process multiple times. Any time it's less than 4 people, or it's the same people as the previous week, Dagan isn't there, etc it's always due to schedule conflicts. The reason Matty and Cog are often together is because they usually have the same free time on their schedule, because they record Duke together.

James Anderson

Here are my thoughts. The show needs four people. But it doesn't need four topics. I think having four people is important purely for variety and differences in opinion. So I think behind the scenes, if they just keep a running tally of topics to be discussed (and who submitted it), they can have LSM crew "sign up" for what shows/topics they want to be a part of. Whatever they end up doing though, don't get rid of the fourth person. Just the fourth topic. This will also take pressure off of employees who might not necessarily want to come up with a topic one week if they truly don't have one. Wait for inspiration to hit.

Eric the human

they record on Fridays I think

Robbie Agnew

Would like Colin on these more

Mike Held

I think they might record Constellation on Sundays, so Colin is too busy watching the Jets lose.

StewDog

L take.

Jimmer

Bruh, that’s three Constellations in a row without Colin. Who does he think 98% of subscribers are here to listen to? Lol I thought two in a row was crazy, but three is just nuts.
