Title: Dylan Thomas Boathouse

Why was this a meme in the elite briefly during summer 2013?

I was listening to an episode of "The DK and Cara Show" from the 2013 Summer Contest (http://thengamer.com/misc/DK%20&%20Cara%20Show%202013/DK_and_Cara_show_2013_ep02.mp3) and I open with a reference to Dylan Thomas Boathouse.  Why would I do this? I have no recollection of this being a meme, but presumably it was something Cara or Durk thought was funny back in 2013.

Does anyone know where this comes from?

Wasn’t it a reference to those ridiculous baseball/ US sport commentary vids done by that British guy

oh man good times these podcasts. I love relistening some of those. Can't believe I actually sunk so much work into editing something that aimed so few people.

Yeah I was listening the other day and thinking about how we really could have used these, alongside daily updates from me on Twitch & Youtube, and really created massive interest in the contest.  As silly as it sounds, and as troll as the contest was, it could really have been something.  These were so professionally done.  I remembered them while we were discussing shitty podcasts, and just how many people are really bad at editing or making their casts interesting.

We had great times anyways, but always makes you think on missed opportunities (and reminds you to live in the NOW and do whatever you are doing to its full potential.)
