In that all good things must come to an end, I write today to our loyal listeners to tell you that I have made a decision to leave the M-Team. No, I don’t plan to record a rant per week and send it off to every MMO podcast on iTunes. Frankly, as Julien pointed out, it’s that I’ve just taken Channel Massive downhill ever since joining in Episode 6. In all seriousness, I am neither currently playing nor am I interested in playing any MMOs right now and setting aside time to record a podcast about something I don’t currently have a passion for seems like a waste of both my time and yours. Frankly, you’re just getting Channel Massive without it’s weakest link. Fear not, dear listeners! Your three remaining hosts are honestly three of the best qualified gaming experts in the podosphere. Jason, Mark and Noah are not going anywhere and are dedicated to making Channel Massive bigger and better than it has ever been. Although, I don’t need to say this, I think it’s important to state that there is not a single drop of bad blood between any M-Team hosts. These fellas are three of my closest friends and nothing will change that. It has truly been a wonderful experience and I don’t regret having been a member of the M-Team for a moment. Best of luck Channel Massive — I’ll be listening.

I thought about leaving a heartfelt goodbye and well-wishes comment, but all I could come up with was this:
Can I have your stuff?
In all seriousness, it was an honor. We’ll keep a mic on for ya if you ever decide to come out of hiding.
By Jim you useless piece of turd…
seriosuly though, you were (I think) the perverted calming voice of the show and you will be missed. Thanks for a great addition to the show, your adventures of cyber-ing in Ultima Online will never be forgotten.
I would expect nothing less from you, Jay. The answer is: yes! The crappy headset that Mark forces me to use night after night are now bequeathed to you. You may also have your own beer that I regularly leech from you, as well as any Jack Daniels or Captain Morgan’s that Mark has sitting above the fridge, which I also pretend is mine on a regular basis.
I’d love to drop by and to slur into your microphones sometime.
Cheers!
Actually we’re just moving Jim up to our board of directors where he can show his approval or disapproval by getting us more or less hawt lewt, er money. Jim, your ghetto microphone (which I accidentally stepped on last night *sigh*) will always be here. With some super glue and duct tape it CAN be made whole again.
Anyway, we’ll really miss having you on the “air” with us but rest assured you can rejoin the fold any time you’d like. Also, we’ll need you to return the night vision goggles once you’re done stalking your next victim, er client.
Seriously, I crushed the damned thing under my bare foot like a grape in an effort to avoid doing the same to my suicidal cat who decided to test my balancing skills after witnessing me drink a couple of Jack and Cokes during a marathon WAR session. Would you like the mic as a trophy? We could have it…well…tinned.
Julien, it is people like you, our hysterically funny Massive Members, that made being a host great. I looked forward every week to the mail that we’d receive, which in my mind was the true measure of our success. Keep these guys honest, eh!
Mark, tinned or not, the headset is Jason’s now. However, I seemed to have misplaced the night vision goggles, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to return them. You keep up the great work, and I’ll drop by once in a while to help you go off on a tangent.
Is it me, Jim? Did the penis facts push you over the edge? I can change, I swear!
Gonna miss you, man.
I’m pouring a forty for you.
So possibly the most important question of all: Who’s going to be monitoring the male@channelmassive.com email account now?
Also … Something doesn’t really add up here. My tin hat theory is that Franken Foot finally got to the point where it was needing human flesh to survive, so the other guys kicked him off the show to avoid being consumed by the beast.
Josh,
Yes, I am a hardcore homophobe and the mere mention of penis makes me violently ill. Oh, wait, that’s not me. As I said to Julien above, our massive members were what really made being a host great. I will always remember the moment you invented the Channel Massive Drinking Game as the summit of our success. Keep these guys in line!
Damn Nerrollus,
I was kind of just hoping that it would go unnoticed that Sophie and Kassandra’s provocative photos were still being forwarded to me.
No, I’m not eating people. Actually, with my new bionics, I have been offered a position in…
…well, if I told you, I’d have to kill you. Thanks for all the great comments and mail, Nerrollus.
I am confused
Yes, I am a hardcore homophobe and the mere mention of penis makes me violently ill. Oh, wait that’s not me
Ok…
Yet….
our massive members were what really made being a host great
What is it gonna be? Penis? or No penis…geez!!!!
Anyways, I hardly (snicker) knew ya, but best of luck down the road..
/signed Another Massive Member!
Openedge,
Well, you caught me. I use confusion to disorient and then trap my victims. Consider yourself and your penis warned. Thanks for the support and try not to incite too many Blog-O-Sterias!
Well played, Jim. Have fun wherever you go and come by periodically to keep these guys honest. Be well.
Cheers, Daniel.
Bionics?! I knew you always sounded like Lee Majors
Marcus, I am that man. Better than I was before. Better, stronger, faster.
