What is Control Point? Well this summary stolen from TF2wiki should inform people who have never listened or heard of them.

The Control Point podcast was produced by the Dead Workers Party, an independent digital cinema production company. They started podcasting with an independent film podcast, then later with the World of Warcraft podcast, "World of WoW", and "WARP", a Warhammer Online podcast. They continue to launch new podcasts on their ever-growing network.

Control Point has a large fanbase that actively contributed emails and phone calls that were used on the show.

Control Point's final episode was episode 100, where the flagship podcast of the Dead Workers Party was changed to Nation of Gamers. They felt that after 100 episodes, it was time to branch out and explore other games and change the format.

And they are live right now!

People are talking about pony shit in tf2. Fucking MLPers.

Be Polite, · 2nd July 2011

Somebody want to drop a post on here when they get to the Robin interview? I'm going to go and play a game, and they're way to loud to keep them on.

**Zadrave** · 2nd July 2011

They related TF2 to Magic: The Gathering.

:lol:

**The Baconator** · 2nd July 2011

These guys literally have not followed TF2 for over a year. Half the time they have been talking about "new" items from like 6 months ago.

Also, they thought the Solemn Vow is useless :lol:

And they thought Granary is a crappy map. They sound like some F2P players talking about TF2 to themselves. They don't even address the audience at all, unlike KK. And waaaaay too much WoW talk.

**Akasolidus** · 2nd July 2011

Ah yes, the original podcasters. These guys knew how to have fun.

**The Baconator** · 2nd July 2011

lol they mixed the atomizer with the soda popper (like literally mixed the two items together, thinking it had both stats. They thought this hybrid weapon was a bat).

Less annoying than the Kritzkast.

**Mio Akiyama** · 2nd July 2011

Raid Mode! :flashfap:

Cosmicmeet · 2nd July 2011

Oh god, I remember this podcast.
Now I need to get back into it.

Sukor · 2nd July 2011

New game mode contains a significant fiction piece?

**Mio Akiyama** · 2nd July 2011

And will have something that will affect the characters completely

artacus · 2nd July 2011

The pyro's face will be completely androgynous when it's revealed and it'll look to the camera with a shit eating grin without saying a word. *TF2 THEME*

**The Baconator** · 2nd July 2011

I will admit this podcast is better than Kritzkast, but they need to address us (the audience) more.

LOL the Carl Sagan reference.

Sukor · 2nd July 2011

Man I missed this podcast.

**johnlmonkey** · 2nd July 2011

Cosmicmeet · 2nd July 2011
