Complaints
What do I do if I have a suggestion or complaint about the show?
- As per the outro: "For questions, suggestions and complaints: email us at moc.liamg|stnemugrAnepO#moc.liamg|stnemugrAnepO."
- Try to avoid complaining on the twitter or facebook pages:
- You're probably not the first so it can become tiresome for other fans, and especially the guys to see the same complaints over and over
- If you think you're doing it in a funny way remember that what seems funny to you won't to every one else
Why does Thomas keep interrupting?
- "We at OA believe we have found a balance we like and currently welcome Thomas' constant interrupting of Andrew's endless lectures."
- If Thomas does cut Andrew off and the conversation gets derailed we suggest you write down what he was saying and ask him moc.liamg|stnemugranepo#ereh or post to the Facebook group and tag him.
- Otherwise feel free to send them an email at moc.liamg|stnemugranepo#moc.liamg|stnemugranepo
Can the audio issues be fixed on episodes 185-194?

A statement on the show was offensive and it went unchallenged, what can I do?
- As Andrew has stated in OA207 "We intend for this to be a challenging show" in response to a listener question about this
- Before contacting the show please listen to the comment you found offensive a second time to make sure you fully understand the statement in the context of the discussion
- Remember if you're behind to catch-up a bit first to make sure your concerns aren't addressed later
