L-O-D-S of -E-S-P-E-A-K-A-H-S, what's that spell? Lots of speakers, probably!

Is that your summary of our podcast? You'll get more soon.
Well yeah, it is sometimes random and it is funny and you guys sometimes tell me things I didn't think about or even knew before.
That's just what I wanted...

Me, Ultramarine, Manicben, annnnnd...
Aww.... well, maybe next time! Grin
I haven't posted my vid yet because I'm on vacation. I'll have it up soon, though.

*Hint, Hint* There may or may not be a Guest special coming up.
Oh true I gotta put up a video... XD
Hey everybody!
We just finished recording the eagerly awaited episode 3, which happens to be a somewhat off-topic and all over the place episode. Apologies in advance guys. Expect it to go up tomorrow sometime! Grin

Thanks to Giraton with being our guest for this week!
You know, I think it'd be better to do auditions while actually talking to the person on Skype. If someone had to send in something, they could've written a script and practiced to make it sound perfect. You won't know how they can do on an actual conversation until the time comes. If its possible, would I be able to try out like that? Like you guys could have a script, try and catch us off guard to see how well we do, etc.

That was said at some point, just to Skype call either Akio or myself when we were free, but due to school and time zone differences, we thought it would be somewhat hard to do.
By all means, if some candidates do not wish to upload a YouTube video, please send a PM our way with your Skype details, time zone and when you would be free (weekends usually).
This episode is probably the most entertainment-oriented. With some funny quotes an references from each side of the conversation. Lack of news! Also, this is our longest episode.

Foreshadowing...
And again I wasn't actually told when we were doing this...

wait. So were you not in it again?
You guys should have some bit better microphone xD. During the podcast, everyone seems to not know what they're talking about. Should you guys have some scripts on what the main topics are/ points they would like to talk about ?

During the podcast, the background also seems a bit too bland. Maybe a small amount of background music? I mean, just something very quite but loud enough to make pauses seem not as awkward.

Sometimes I can't understand what someone is saying because for most of the time, it sounds like people are mumbling/ trying not to be too loud. Try talking clearly [?] into the microphones and sound energetic- like you are excited to be on the show.

Nope. No one told me even a few minutes before, much less in enough time, that we were doing this...

I eMailed you on Thursday T_T. Sorry bro, I guess I could say it'll be on Friday. Just remember that, PM me asking the time a day or two before.

Well, Giraton's mic is weird. The music sounds like a good idea. We're mostly just joking around. Also, we'd better use THIS SONG for the background of episode four. Ands we need ultramarine and his nonchalontness!
Sorry for double-posting
For some reason, emails from people from the WBO go to SPAM.
And you coulda pm'd me when I wasn't answering...

Darn it, sorry for my one word post earlier.

Sorry to Double-Post, but episode three came out.
Episode 3: PUNCH IT IN THE FACE! Also, Minnesota has 11,000 lakes.
Interesting title. Hope I can be in episode 4 if I audition soon.

Audition stream has begun! Dun dun dunnnnnn!
Also we might have a "Donations" section to raise money to make the podcast better.

Yeah, unless we get our own website or something... Haha. It was much simpler in my head "Fans pay for new headset and editing software to make the podcast better for them" All by their choice, obviously. And maybe prizes like pre-post sneak peek.
You mean like giveaways and things like that?
(Aug. 25, 2013  2:47 AM)Bularieleone Wrote: You mean like giveaways and things like that?

I guess you could say that. Maybe ten bucks will get you five weeks were you get to listen early, and two entries in a drawing?
Erm, with the whole "Donations" thing...

Shouldn't you guys wait until it gets very popular ??
It seems that some people may question the quality and future of the podcast, unable to donate without feeling that it may go to waste.

This also goes for the "listen early" thing. If people don't know if it's worth it, they'll hesitate. Why not try to get some equipment out of pocket now, and later on, have donations be what funds an "official website" and online streaming service.

Good luck!
