On today's episode, we've got stuff to say about 9.2, Bentolas becomes the first person other than Woolly to take on the mixed drink of the week, and we are drafting our top three favorite Mixed Drinks of the Week!

If you'd like to, you can leave one at WarcraftRadio.com/directory. You can email us at [email protected]. You can even leave one on iTunes if you've a mind to. You can tweet at us, as well. @ThrallsBallsPod

If you have left one anywhere else, we aren't likely to have seen it.

I want to take a minute to mention Warcraft Radio. This might feel like an ad, but it isn't. It's more like a badge of appreciation.

We've mentioned offhand what WCR is, but it's essentially a podcast network. We're listed in their directory. WCR put a ton of work into maintaining their directory and their website, so if you like our podcast, go check out some other ones as well! And as long as you're there, you can leave a review for us that we'd be happy to teabag you with...otherwise known as "reading it on the show."

Mixed Drink of the Week: Orgrimmar

-3/4 shot Amaretto

-small amount of 151 on top

-Light the shot, drop it into a cup of light beer, and chug

Please only drink if you are legally able to. We are not responsible for any consequences of your own choices.

I think it's safe to say this is one of the darkest times in Wow's history. Between gameplay a lot of people are unhappy with and all the actiblizz sexual harrassment problems coming out, wow isn't as popular as it once was. I just want to say thank you to everybody who is here with us, listening to the show. I know there's at least a couple of you who don't play anymore but still listen, and I want to say thank you. I have hope that one day wow will be back on a stronger leg and our community can grow healthier. Thank you for being here. Okay now back to the toilet humor.

Mixed Drink of the Week

Please only partake of alcohol if you are of legal age to do so where you live. Please also note we hold no responsibility for anything that may befall you from your own choices.
