Podcast Appearances
I tend to agree. Here was my thinking or reasoning, because in the past it was always weekly. Yeah. There's a little part of me that knows that a monthly show will always have content no matter what. There's always going to be stuff for us to talk about, changes that happen that we're interested in, all of that. That's going to be a thing. Weekly, it was hard even โ
halfway through the original run of the show sometimes to produce enough content to justify a weekly podcast and uh i hated that feeling of we're having to pad this out or talk about too many other games to pad it out or that sort of thing so we figure i think bob you'll agree with this that's weird my mouth made a weird noise then i apologize to everybody at home

Made a lot of weird noises over the years. It's fine. I think you'll agree with me when I say it's better for us to start at this cadence and give more down the road than it would be the other way, where we start cramming one weekly or however often we do it, and then we go, well, we think it needs to be bimonthly because it's not enough. Well, we're going to go back to a monthly or whatever.

I suppose anything's possible in the future, but this feels like the right place to start up again.

Yeah. We'll do basically we, we've, this is more internal. I don't know why I'm sharing this, but we're going to do six episodes seasons. That's that for this cadence is six months. Yeah. And at the end of that six months, we look at it and go, all right, let's evaluate it. What do we like? What do we not like? What do we think about the next season? And is that next season more often?

Is it the same? Like that's when those decisions will be made.

Yeah. I think that's smart. Something I didn't do enough of in the first run. I didn't know what I was doing in the first run. I mean, let's look, let's think about this. The show started in 2006. It ran till 2021 to two. It was 22. Yeah. And that's a long time to do anything. Yeah. Without a major tweak.

Yeah. Let alone that. And you could say, well, Scott, you had all kinds of tweaks. You had a different co-host at various different times. And that's true. We did. Um, And lots of ups and downs, including the Blizzard ups and downs, which were pretty massive at the time. Controversial stuff, layoffs, the buying by Microsoft, and Bobby Kotick finally getting his hand out of the cookie jar.

All of these things represent a very... chaotic kind of run that did real well. People were real happy with it and whatever, but it wore me out. So the goal this time is to retain all the passion and love, but yes, keep the fun out front. Fun is front. Fun front.
