Honestly, if you told me they were fucking I'd believe it. Not out of spite but from how they act.

-They talk about the show Community
-Barbara is eating a lollipop and it draws attention to her horse teeth
-Jeremy says that Chevy Chase is problematic

-Alfredo says that he wants to get stepped on by a character from said game

-Trevor talks about a woman with the ability to crush things with her breasts. With teeth protuberant Barbara gives a look of exaggerated astonishment and Trevor again puts a hand on her head to reassure her

-Trevor says for the second time that he is "sleeping on" the new Resident Evil game and talks about a mod for it where you can spank the villain with a spatula
-Alfredo talks about a tiktok video that Ify made of himself sweatily asking where to find aforementioned mod. Everyone says that Ify is very funny and Alfredo says that he loves him
-Ify once sent Alfredo a naked selfie from the toilet without realizing it was a live photo. Trevor says that that was kosher

-Lots of boring filler that isn't worth mentioning

-Barbara says that a few days ago she was doing an interview and Trevor's shrill screams were mistaken for the yowl of a cat

-Barbara and Trevor keep waffling on about the show and it removes any doubt about the fact that the podcast is now just a platform for advertisements

-Jeremy starts to say that Trevor is a fan of a particular show and Trevor agrees with him before he says the name of the show

-Trevor was tied to the bed in the dark for an hour, he seems to think that they should release the unedited footage of that for some reason
-More boring filler about Achievement Haunter
-Barbara and Blaine traveled together to Connecticut to film for some movie called Annabelle
-Barbara went to some ghost museum and was afraid of looking at a doll they had on display because she thought that it might bring her harm. She told the doll that she respects it but would not look at it

-Trevor does an annoying old woman voice
-Trevor says that they are "steeped in science" and implies that Barbara's irrational fear of the doll is actually rational

-Trevor feeds Barbara question about the museum visit but she says that she cannot remember anything specific except that there were candles

-Barbara wants to call it a "blue sky idea" but does not know what that phrase means

-Barbara says that they are going to make a "Squad Team Fart" shirt
-Trevor says that STF is "going after new content platforms" and he says they really "kickied ass right out of the gate" because they had a tiktok video that he describes as viral
-Barbara describes STF as making "short-form comedy content" for social media and says that that she is pleased that the video Trevor mentioned garnered 200k views in a week on tiktok
-Trevor praises tiktok and talks about some tiktok video he liked (some gay thing about star wars and stitching)
-Barbara says that STF is starting "essentially from scratch" and implies that the brand is somewhat distanced from RT. She says "It's a good way to get people to learn about Rooster Teeth and the content we're all making"
-Trevor says that AHWU is on an indefinite hiatus because they are doing more streaming and "content is different now". He insists that no one is making them do this and describes RT as a "fly on the wall" in relation to AT&T and says that they have bigger things to worry about
-Trevor says that their "chit chats" they have before their streams will "fulfill the AWHU need". He also says "We do so much, we need to take inventory of all of the things we are doing" which to my ear sounds like corporate oversight
-Barbara makes a joke about STF making AHWU instead and it is unfunny
-Jeremy suggests that they do their own version of AWHU but call it "Sqaud Team Force Update" or STFU. Barbara is enamored with the idea
-Barbara says "absolute unit" in what I think was supposed to be a british accent

-(((Barbara))) says that diversity is important

It's be interesting to see what has more life in it, a non existant dead person or Fiona Nova.
This has to be the 10th, inevitably going to fail and be shit canned, D&D podcast that RT has produced. Why the fuck are they still trying to make this work when it clearly never will. Oh wait Barbara is their creative director, that's why.
I swear Barbara only knows how to make three things and they are all podcasts.
Podcasts and doing "vlogger challenges from 2009". That one really was a nice burn from Gavin :p

Because Critical Role is hugely popular (to the point of being a detriment to the actual game and community of DnD), and they are desperately trying to capture a fraction of that success.

The first time they were trying to hijack the popularity of Critical Roll. Now they're trying to hijack the popularity of Dimension 20. All creative talent that Roosterteeth once had is completely dead at this point.

I'm sure she'll love the idea of someone telling her to shut the fuck up.
Because no one has gotten sick of seeing the same boring shit for almost a decade. And people probably wonder why Ray got out when the getting out was good.

I really enjoyed the hero’s and half wits episodes, until it became apparent Geoff and Griffin where using it as an outlet for the divorce they would later announce.
She really hates Geoff.
Also just a small thing I picked up in the Resident Evil videos was Michael talking about having to request permission to play the game and for how long he is allowed. This kind of highlights their current low quality attitude that the stream must always be on and some one must always be funny at all times. Versus the old in the office freedom of playing games they want to play and having fun.
The lighting in the bottle is the group personality and you can’t recreate this via diversity hires or spreesheets. But the thing you can control is the main factor that causes the lighting bottle to produce something of value. Fun. If they are having fun, in turn people enjoy watching them.
This stupid non stop stream thing is killing them, they are tired and worn out, any type of work can be exhausting. I mean they eat and shit on stream. It’s not twitch, people are not donating money. Go back to offline recording and editing and let your “talent” have breaks.

I think Barbara said that because 1) She is vapid and full of herself 2) she had a growth spurt in her early teens and was taller than her peers for a while, being all long and gangly probably really bothered her. I couldn't find the picture I was looking for (it was her towering over some friends when she was quite young, it's as if it's been scrubbed from the internet) but I found this and I think it sort of illustrates my point.
Also my search taught me that she has a brother who is quite ugly

I think they're hoping to look authentic without a script.
The trouble is that it makes them look like boomers whenever they try to latch on to what's trendy and oversaturated.

Sounds like you want them to just do outlines of their podcasts and the topics.....or Welcome TO Night Vale
Why? Because it brought a bunch of people unto it that weren't "in the know" or didn't appreciate what was already there a la The Big Bang Theory?
It's funny since RT already has something called The Grimm Campaign, which is just a D and D session within the RWBY universe.

It's brought a shit ton of people into the community, and they expect every game of DnD to work exactly like the show to the point of getting upset when a DM can't or won't fully voice every NPC uniquely, or that not every single action/interaction has to be fully RPed.
Genuine DnD fans treat them as though they're cancer.
I want them to stop making low effort content of them just faffing about. If they can't create good off the cuff long-form content, make short scripted content. Quality > Quantity

Funny you mention that since I remember an episode of The Big Bang Theory had a D and D session where Howard as the DM did the different voices thing. And apparently the NBC series Community had a show where they did D and D that was pretty well received.
You know, if they did what you propose, they'd shutter pretty much everything that isn't related to RWBY (or Death Battle if you wanna be generous). But I think someone earlier in the thread mentioned that RT has a lot of shit that'll piss off fans if they end it.

If the only way to improve something's quality is to end it, fucking end it. Dragging something long past it's expiration date just because fans like it doesn't mean you should keep dragging.
