Unofficial History of Drama in the Free State

[ForumTroll]

And doesn't someone have any juicy drama to post ad get this thread back on what it was about....good, old fashioned drama.

I've got some juicy drama about a politically inclined FSP'er who...oh, nevermind...that would be rude.

Sundays podcast was boring (I stopped halfway through). Partially because I have already read the cracked.com article they are reading on air. Partially because they should have practiced more before hand.

Edit: I heard on the Skeptics Guide podcast that they were given advice to make three podcasts the first time and then throw them out, then make one for real. This would serve to iron out the kinks. It would be more difficult with a live one but I'm sure they could figure it  out.

So you didn't listen to Hannah?

What?  A woman was on FTL and I missed it?  Holy fucking Christ.  That is momentous.

Why throw out the practice runs, when someone wants to hear them?    and I can assure you, someone wants to hear them.

We had tens of listeners last night!

Seriously though, as I understand it, the podcast listeners and cam viewers was pretty high.  Mark and Ian are already playing it safe by having this experiment on a night when no radio stations can have their airwaves contaminated by the inexperienced host-wannabees.  I think the pressure of some listeners needs to be there for us to be motivated and to really learn.  We're supposed to talk to just each other for 3 hours?  Hell, how else will we get callers and learn how to interact with them?

I hate that the first few moments of the first ever Sunday show had me stumbling over the phone number switch but I felt like we smoothed things out reasonably well as the show went on.  I definitely feel the 2nd half was better than the first half, FWIW.  Listening to some of the show this morning gave me some feedback for how I can improve next time.  In an attempt to keep things lively, my speech was often too rushed and lacked proper enunciation.  There also wasn't enough talk about butts and various deviant sexual topics.

Damn! You said that because you knew that was the part I hadnt listened to, didnt you?! Now I have to go back and download it again to finish the podcast.

I like the idea of a FTL farm league. I don't know if this belongs in the Drama thread, though.

Everyone has to start somewhere.  I applaud these guys for making an effort to learn how to do things by themselves.  Who knows when Ian will decide it's time to get arrested again.  The more people there are capable of keeping the show going in some capacity or another, the better.

Mark mentioned something I specifically said on Mondays podcast. It it weird I'm so happy about this?

Today we had a fire at Mike's place and Murrle came and hasseled us about it. When we refued to put it out the fire department came and put it out.

Russel almost got arrested for this. It happened on Monday. I was in Grafton burying my dog around that time. I saw people cleaning the fire truck.

In b4 whining.

I wonder if Eukreign here (where the fuck did he go?) put the fire out, since he's supposedly still a member of the volunteer fire department. If he did, he sold out yo.
