Both Duncor and John "BigBearButt" Patricelli were on the podcast with me last Saturday, and despite my being a bit behind (Liberty City claimed most of my time last week), the show went really well.- We chatted a lot about the mounts of Warcraft, including why you can't ride most of the bug mounts outside of AQ.
- We talked about how to make raiding faster
- We hit on a number of player events, including John's post about those crazy Druids in Nagrand, and our own It Came From the Blog fun
- We talked about what we're looking forward to in Wrath of the Lich King (I can't wait for the five man instances)
- And we answered lots of emails -- a few more jokes, a little advice, some good thoughts about Trinkets (and maybe putting an extra inventory slot in there), player housing, and lots of making fun of Duncor for quitting the game.
- And we figured out the real pronunciation of melee -- here it is.
And here's a special announcement: This coming week on the WoW Insider Show (which will be live on WoW Radio at 3:30pm EST on May 10th), we'll have a special Mother's Day edition of the podcast. Not only will we have Robin Torres (who is herself a mother) on with Turpster and I, but both Amanda Dean and her mother will be live on the show as well. Moms and WoW -- next week on the WoW Insider Show.

After clicking on the sound button to hear it on your linked page it sounds like may-lay, not meh-lay.

As far as I know Brit pronunciation is meh-lay, and American is may-lay. The opposite way around to shaman, shay-man (Brit), and shah-man (American).

I think the shayman/shahman thing is where you're from in the U.S. I say shay-man. I also say may-lay though, so maybe I just like the "ay", eh?

Actually, I took a Vietnam class and it's pronounced "mee-lie". Also, pretty sure it's pronounced like "shom men".

Uhh, melee wasn't much to dispute--you Google and you're good. But made-up names are a more tricky situation...
For instance, what is the official pronunciation of "Hyjal"?
Honestly, I want to call it "High-all", but hear it commonly referred to as "high-jill" or "high-jull".

I might just be really picky but a I hear people pronouncing it as Me-Lee and it just bugs me to no end, and I will always correct them.
LoL
