"What We're Drinking" segment needs an S&L name

[Diego]

I would go for something simple. "What it your poison?"

Wouldn't that be "Name your poison"

I tought that there was something wrong when i wrote. That is! Thanks! Name your poison!

How about "Flask & Flagon"?

[C. Scott]

Although it is a specific drink, this sounds good: The Grog.

Brilliant!

The site doesn't recognize the word "podcast" or "Sword and laser".
Its does recognize the term "Audio book."

It does recognize the Library Voices. In which case, looks like we're drinkin' Crown Royal.

For the assassin it recommends a Red Stripe lager.

Odd, for some terms it starts playing music.
For other nothing .

I love "Name your Poison"! simple, clear, and has a good feel :)

"Unreplicable libations"

[Ezra]

I say please please get rid of the segment altogether! i've seen a lot of this self-congratulation over drinking in other podcasts and stuff, and it always comes off as really really 18-year-old-college-freshman. Drink what makes you happy, but keep it to yourself!

[Mike]

I agree with Ezra. I have nothing against drinking at all, and partake of it myself frequently, but I find the segments uninteresting at best, annoying at worst. I hate when Leo does it on TWiT, I hated it when they did it on Diggnation, I hate it when they do it on Bite Club (and that one has "wine" in the tagline)... It's not something I'd stop listening over, but I do tend to skip over it if I have a hand free.

If you *are* going to keep it (*SIGH*) maybe combine it with the news segment and name it after a different fantasy/sci-fi inn/bar each episode - The Pig and Whistle, Ten Forward, The Waystone, Purgatory, etc.

Man, chill out. It's actually on-theme with the name of our show, and the vibe we're trying to get across. We're imitating old English pubs (and their naming conventions) as a place to hang out with your mates, have a drink, and discuss your favorite books. We like it. That's why the set looks like a pub, too.

[Ezra]

Ok, I got it, sorry...

Scratch that, really sorry. I've gotten used to hiding all my hostility IRL and dumping it in uncalled-for places online.

I'm not keen on the segment, but it's really not a big deal. I don't like it being in there (and I guess I was a little scared that giving it a name would make it more official and "important"), but being a fan doesn't confer any ownership (a mistaken notion that slips into online thinking all too often), so I leave you to it!

Then "What are you drinking?" or perhaps "It's your round" would do.

I am partial to Grog and Gargleblasters, though ...
