Fast Peek Last Week - The State of 100T Valorant - PAX Arena Recap with Simo (@simowashere)

Your dads are back with a new show exploring #100T's VALORANT squad. This faster-paced and shorter podcast will emphasize the fan perspective over analysis, and will be a super fun time. Despite some production issues that literally appeared out of nowhere, we have an excellent time launching our first episode and are fortunate to have the already-legendary Simo (https://twitter.com/simowastaken) join us for our Neural Theft segment - where we steal a smart guy's knowledge. Community involvement is also on the table for our Incendiary segment.


This week, we grapple with 100T's rocky start in this new esport and try to suss out if this roster is a long term project or a short term way for us to capture excitement around the scene, plus analyze some of Hiko's leadership style. Simo gives us the goods on the team's agent selection and lack of variation, plus questions some of the team's structure.

Oh No, Not Again - 100 Thieves LCS Spring 2023 Week 4 Recap

An extremely sad and surprising 0-3 was turned in by 100 Thieves this weekend, and boy does it hit different this time around. In a matter of two weeks the squad went from looking ahead of schedule and a potential title contender, to looking anemic and lost. Jordan and Cole call the 100Kids together to compile a litany of complaints and evaluate which ones have merit and which ones will pass. The dads also break down the possible ways out from this mess and encourage, as ever, patience. Common 100Talk episode ready to be enjoyed by all! Listen here. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00:00 - Intro 0:04:48 - Regression to the mean or a sign of more troubles to come? 0:09:31 - Is this the classic 100T round robin 1 slump? 0:20:29 - Meta woes and Bjergsen questions 0:26:21 - Have we been (gasp) solved? 0:45:40 - Listener Takes 1:13:39 - Predictions 1:19:26 - Outro ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ FOLLOW THE 100TALK DADS: Twitter ► https://twitter.com/100talkpod Twitch ► https://www.twitch.tv/100talkpod Discord ►...

Familiar Start for the Unfamiliar Thieves - 100 Thieves LCS Spring 2023 Week 1 Recap

The more things change, the more they stay the same. This new 100T roster is starting the split a lot like the old 100T roster - slowly. Cole and Jordan bring the 100Kids together to explain why we're not overwhelmed, we're not underwhelmed, we're just - whelmed. The dads also talk about the perspective discrepancy that exists between evaluating the two team rookies (Tenacity and Busio), and why the narratives are more similar than different (read: Give Tenacity a freaking chance, yall, dang.) A good discussion ensues about Doublelift's new series "I make an entertaining video explaining what I think happened this weekend," and whether 100T's content outsourcing is going to play out positively or negatively. Oh yeah, and listener takes and questions galore! Listen here. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00:00 - Intro 0:08:44 - 100T vs C9 0:26:33 - 100T vs IMT 0:37:29 - Performance vs Hype: Rookie Edition 0:42:46 - New Recurring Segment: The 100T Content Part 0:56:29 - Listene...

The Last Rodeo feat. John Robinson

There's no better way to send off 100Talk than to be joined by the one and only John Robinson, President and COO of 100 Thieves. John joins Jordan and Cole for a look at some of the best moments of 100Talk and 100 Thieves, the evolving business strategy of the org, and most importantly - what the incredible 100Talk community has meant to the org and to the dads. Plus, John surprises with an insane gift opened live during the show. And if you're lucky, you may hear a couple of important and timely leaks... If you are an audio-only listener, let us take a moment to thank you for being with us. It's been an honor to host these conversations and try to give an honest and fun perspective of what it's like to be an esports fan during the craziest wave of the industry. While this is the final audio podcast for 100Talk, we'll let the show's episodes live on if you ever feel like revisiting. And we'll say for the final time - we love you, and we miss you already. Tak...
