UP Podcast - suggest topics, guests, logistics

I’ve wanted to do a Binge Modeesque breakdown of The Dark Tower series for a while now.

Here’s a round up of what’s been discussed so far. I’ve tried to tag everyone/everything that seemed like a serious suggestion. Please let me know if I missed you. If I tag you, please confirm or deny your participation. I will add a :white_check_mark: or :x: to keep track of those who either volunteered themselves or said they would be up for it.

Keep in mind:

  1. You don’t have to do it live. You can record a voice memo on your phone and email it in.
  2. This isn’t a stand-up comedy routine (though that’d be cool, too). Don’t worry about being funny or clever or smart on the spot. Just hearing the voice and perspective of people we’ve been chatting with for years is inherently interesting, imo.
  3. If you’re on the fence, just do it. It’ll be fun.

@jmakin as host for the pilot :white_check_mark:
@ElSapo with a blog update :white_check_mark:
@zarapochka - physics or housing. :white_check_mark:
@Trolly and @Ikioi talking about sumo
@MrWookie with a cooking segment (bonus points for the sound of onions frying in the background; might work well as a voice memo).
@mjiggy and myself on Walrus :white_check_mark:
@pvn is IN. What are you up for?
@Smacc_25 on football :white_check_mark: or driving a taxi during a pandemic
@Trolly and @beetlejuice on X-cops :x:
@Fossilkid93 on being a stateless wanderer for over a decade.:white_check_mark:
@clovis8 taking anonymous sex questions
@R.C on what he’s watching or NFL picks (good live or voice memo, imo)
@Lawnmower_Man :x: @anon3530961 :white_check_mark: @goofyballer :white_check_mark: @beetlejuice :white_check_mark: @6ix ? on NFTs

(if tagged here, please read my last post, one post up)

@skydiver8 about organizing, politics, the MCU or Star Wars. Or skiing. :white_check_mark:
@Riverman on the biden administration
@CaffeineNeeded on the pandemic :x:
@Habsfan09 on any issues she finds interesting :x:
@jwax13 on veganism :x:
@Sabo :x: or @PocketChads would be interesting to listen to regarding activism etc.
@JohnnyTruant talk about anything really
From @Jalfrezi something about music.
@spidercrab something on “What to do with your money?”. May be not only like in stonks, but more “What is money?” " How to preserve the value?" “Issues with bitcoin?”. Basically a level that looks at value of money / goods / investments. How it is created and what happens with it. Money reforms?
@anon10396289 and @DrJenniferMelfi doing a deep dive into the Sopranos similar to what Binge Mode did with GoT and Harry Potter
@CanadaMatt3004 on Crosscode :white_check_mark: Or Maybe video games in general with @mjiggy

Yeah for sure, we’ll even have a new one to discuss. I’d also interested in talking video games, maybe with CM3004.

I am not a big talker and english isnt my native language. As long as I am still more of a couch warrior it would be heresy to talk about environmental stuff. Maybe my time will come later.

If I can get this to work I’ll do something around a Scotland game at the European Championships and try to keep it as clean as possible, but unfortunately there will be swearing.

I am not strictly vegan and am more of a flexitarian, so it feels kinda weird to contribute on that. Plus, I hate the way my voice sounds (Okie).

Would listen to Riverman going off on the Biden administration.

A beetlejuice podcast would probably get me to subscribe to something on Patreon. I don’t really care what you talk about.

You don’t need to be an expert but that’s fine if you don’t want to do it, obviously.

glad (releaved) you see the funny side :grin: would 2nd like after quoted edit, if that were possible

I’m down to just bullshit about whatever, it doesn’t just have to be about the X-Cops episode of X-Files.
