From a technical standpoint, with the show being streamed live, do you anticipate any issues with the show being slowed down due to buffering and maybe crashing the server due to too many listeners?

I really enjoyed MMAWeekly Radio when it was live at noon ET each weekday. Hopefully you will be able to replicate or even top what Bennett and Trigg did, because that was enjoyable.

Also, the pre and post fight shows are an excellent idea. It will be nice to be able to get some immediate intelligent discussion right after fights instead of the idiocy on the forums.

Thanks a lot for all you hard work and Go Spartans!

I am not sure how many listeners we will be able to have on at the same time. I have two phone lines. That is all I could afford. Telephones have to go through something called a hybrid. Hybrids with more than one line are obsured.

The idea is to have a radio show with the best content and production you would hear on any FM dial in your area.

Or somewhere else that is more heavily populated with top tier fighters.

You're not going to get me out of Minnesota. I love it here.

will the stream be broadband only? what about us dial up users. I can listen to mmaweekly just fine, but you said the audio quality will be great so that probably means i wont be able to stream

The audio quality is based on the equipment you use. I am sure that dial up will be ok. But it may have issues. That is a server thing that I know nothing about.

hey tj, i listen to every show and love the beatdown. thanks for all your hard work and giving us live MMA radio. i gotta say though, listening to sherwood talk about the buffet at the rio was hilarious.

if you do bring back trivia, please no more fight finder questions. you know everyone was on the computer looking that shit up.

I'm glad this lived up to the hype. If the big announcement was that you got your money back from the sub shop, I probably would have cried.

Yea i would kind of think that Sherdog would help out more with this maybe get some professionals in to do it for you but sounds like you were on your own pretty much.

TJ can you have Nick Diaz on ever day so he can exploit mother&$@s. They're painting their toenails bro. Great job, I am not at all disappointed by the hype. Is there anyway that an average Sherdogger could volunteer to help you guys out with the site? Maybe pictures from events or anything? I know you guys have it down, but if you guys need anything i'm down for the cause.
