My suggestion is wait till your 13 and listen to the podcast then, please don't ruin it by requesting they censor it. I like my entertainment to be pure and exactly what the artist intended.

There is a lot of children on this site, don't you think that for you to basically insult them for requesting the podcast to be clean makes you look like the immature one?

Holding back from saying a few swear words in a podcast isn't going to "ruin it," nor would I call it "censorship." I don't think it's unreasonable for the original poster, or anyone else, to ask a website's podcast to follow the same rules as its website does.

OK update. I listened to the podcast and I don't have a clue why its explicit. There isn't ANY explicit material what so ever in the podcast. I think that needs to be changed to no expicit material.

They already explained this... they labeled it as explicit just so they don't have to worry about a few naughty words slipping out. It's a lot easier to mark them all as explicit rather than listen through the whole thing to check their language was 100% appropriate and then edit it, so even if there isn't actually any swearing, it saves them the bother of making sure each and every time.

I dont get the whole explict thing either. I have bought songs that had f-bombs in it more than once with no explict label. Then I have heard stuff that was completly clean and labeled explict. It doesnt make any sense at all.

because explicit is a cool word besides who cares..if ur unable to dl it just because of that then..idk..personally i find it pretty funny

I found a Thriller by Michael Jackson ringtone and it was marked explict!!!

You're ridiculous for a few reasons.

First, telling somebody to "wait till your 13" is incredibly dismissive and, bluntly, dickish. Also, this is not art, and I can't imagine the guys actually doing the podcast would be silly enough to call it that. It's guys talking about cell phone games for an audience that probably includes a lot of people under 13. This wouldn't be ruined by having a few instances of explicit language (which, honestly, I'm not sure is something that has even happened yet) censored or bleeped.

Go ahead and stop being a dolt.
