I miss the Podcast.....

[Dr. David Q. Dawson]

Was the 'Disneyland' show Bob's last recorded show? Wonder if they will release that one...? Maybe with a brief intro from Pete explaining how that was Bob's last show. It will definately be difficult to listen too though...

Having said that, I hope the Podcast team takes all the time they need. I can imagine how difficult that first recording session will be.

Oh, and Pizza night is Friday in our house.

I would be looking for something soon. Re-booting the podcast is a way to heal. Im sure that the casters know that Bob would want it to continue (of course..) Kinda goes without saying.
Aaaand..(sigh) they know they'll have to talk about Bawb. Probably moreso the first episode..
Remember, the mongello podcast is good too, so if you havent listened to it lately, you can get your fix there while "our" team is gearing up.
Now, what happens to the infamous first LIVE show..hmm..
Get well soon, all! Cant wait to hear from ya!

I'm definitely in the missing it, but totally understand their need for time, camp. It's so painful right now that Pete hasn't even released the Disneyland segment yet. They all need as many virtual hugs as possible!

The team has the right idea in switching the format around though. It would be really hard to get through "Rapid Fire" without Bob's not so rapid topics. Gosh I'm gonna miss that guy...

 

[corky441]

I understand that it will take them time to get back to the table without Bob.
I've been downloading archives of their prior podcasts to help ease my withdrawal symtoms right now.
unfortunately - hearing Bob's voice make me realize just how much he's going to be missed by everyone. The 10th anniversary show really got me all teared up...

Hi Gang,

We truly appreciate the support and love that comes through each and every one of your posts.

I am sure you can imagine the gamut of emotions that we all seem to be running through this past week.

We all consciously understand the need to resume the Podcast....getting back on the horse so to speak....and we all can speak the words that we know thats what Bob would have wanted.

We also know that some things will need to change. Bob is an irreplacable part of the Podcast. There is no one that would or could deny that.

That being said....

It was not at all unusual for me to not see Bob except on weekends. We would all go to dinner on Saturday night and then record on Sunday or Monday. So there are hours in the day that I forget for a a short while that Bob is gone. It seems natural that I will see him or talk to him in the next few days. And then reality seeps back in....

I'm not telling y'all this as a way to illicit sympathy... just as a way of explaining that going out to dinner this Saturday night and then sitting down to record a show seems daunting without him.

While I hope that you wont hold me to an exact day or time, I am guessing that we will be back in the studio sooner rather than later.

It will be hard for all of us, including those listening, as we will not seem whole, but we all know that we must move ahead.

Thanks for letting me ramble and for being patient with us.

We hope to be ready soon.

Kevin

 

[Dr. David Q. Dawson]

Thanks for checking in Kevin. We all look forward to hearing you all again. Whenever that time is right

 

[Tissa]

Take your time and do it when it feels right. It's easy for me to say the show must go on when it's not me feeling the pain you all do. I've never met Bob in person and I still feel like screaming "NOT FAIR, GIVE HIM BACK!"

In the meantime I'll search for past episodes that I missed to get my fix.
Hang in there.

 

[DisNutSam]

I was thinking the same thing. I really miss them too. I started to listen to some old shows, and began to cry so I stopped. If it is to soon for me then I can't imagine how difficult it must be for the team. For the podteam, please take all the time you need and just know that we will all be waiting for you when you feel you are all ready. The grace you have all shown through this has been a testiment of your the strengh of characters.

Much love,
Sammie

 

[SamIAm21]

Kevin, it would be beyond reason to ever think that you would post anything to elicit sympathy or anything else for that matter. Just know that while all the formal cermonies may have ended, we are still here for the Varley family and the PodSquad. We are still thinking about you as you heal from this horrible blow to your family.

I'm not sure I can speak for everyone, but I know that as much as I look forward to the next DIS Unplugged podcast, I also know how hard it will be to listen to. I cannot for a minute imagine how hard it will be to sit down and record. So, in that spirit, please do what's best for you, John, Pete, Julie, Corey and Will.

Kevin,
Thanks for the "ramble"...I didn't think it was a ramble at all, though.

Although we all miss the podcast right now, we want you to take care of yourselves first. Everyone is united behind you guys and as I've said before, we won't go anywhere. We will still be here with you!

I too miss the podcasts. I think that is perfectly acceptable.. Because as we say we miss you guys, it's just another way of saying we care about ya' all.

It has been nice to go back and listen to older sessions, also. It was hard at first, but with each one I've listened to, well, it just feels better....

Take care of each other

(P.S. Add me to the Friday night pizza list!)

 

[chirurgeon]

I had been thinking about this. In my head I knew the Podcast crew needs time to get back to the Podcast, in my gut I wanted to hear a new pod cast. My head will rule and I will patiently (sort of) wait however long and I will be here when the new podcast comes out.

Thanks Kevin, for the update. I think we can all appreciate how difficult it will be for you guys and I'm sure no one means to rush you guys into it.

I gotta say though, I'm really looking forward to the Disneyland podcast. It will be exceptionally sad for me but exciting at the same time. We have our first family trip to Disneyland for 1 week coming next month and I just know Pete and the rest of you guys will provide us with incredibly valuable information. If you guys can't get it out, whether it be time or emotional constraints that is more than ok. I'm sure I'll get by without too much trouble.

 

[aaronmckie]

I just miss you guys, and I know that hearing the podcasts again will help bring closure for me (but man, will it ever be hard to listen to for a while...).

Take your time coming back, gang, and know you've got a loving audience waiting for you

 

[robertgp124]

Thanks for the update, Kevin. I think all of us just plain miss hearing from you all. We understand why, but that doesn't make us miss you any less. It really is thoughtful and nice of you to stick your head in once and a while and say hello.

 

[Mr. Plutes]

I to miss the podcast. So for a quick fix, I listen to the moo-gee-toe podcast. I was in my car cracking up like crazy. So to all the podcast crew when your ready we will be here waiting. Take care of each other.

 

[WaltD4Me]

I so understand what Kevin said about forgetting then remembering that someone is gone.

A friend of mine died unexpectedly 2 years ago in a car accident and to this day I have moments when I forget and think "I need to call Dawn." and then reality smacks me in the face. It's tough. I think maybe a bit more so when you didn't have any time to prepare or get used to the idea. We used to hang out at one particular restaurant, pretty much every Friday night, it took me a long time to go back there.

We'll all be here ready when the crew is ready. Old podcasts have been really helping me and I'll just keep loading those up until you are.

Ditto here. Three years later, I'm still thinking "I need to tell Dad about... oh, yeah." I'm seeing our missing the podcast as one way we're all telling the PodSquad

how much they mean to us... ,

as Good Ol' DisneyKevin recommended.

WE WOULDN'T MISS IT IF YOU GUYS WEREN'T SO IMPORTANT TO US!! TAKE YOUR TIME!!!!

 

[DisDarling]

Hi Kevin

I hope I didn't come across as being selfish missing you all, I just really truly miss each of you. It is a part of my life each week and when it is absent, there is definitely a feeling of loss there. I know the first one will be tough, so please take all the time in the world. I truly just wanted you each to know how much you are missed here.

Missing Bawb,
Amy

Me too. My Aunt passed suddenly and sometimes I find myself dialing the first 5 numbers of her telephone number and then. . Oh, yeah. We miss you guys and will wait. Take time

 

[bettyann29]

Kevin.. Thank you so much for taking the time to come here and explain although you need no explanation..

I feel like I am with friends each week.. I run to my computer each week to download the next show...
