Irregular Success
By End_Boss 6 Comments
Hey folks, figured I'd post another blog just to announce some details about The Irregulars, since I've received a number of PMs about it lately.
Show Format
The format is really basic in order to ensure the smoothest show possible. Basically, it looks like this:- Pre-show: Guests and host chit-chat and get comfortable before diving into the show.
- Introductions: Host introduces guests, plugs any relevant blogs/threads.
- Catch-up segment: This is basically where we talk about anything we've played recently that isn't the game that the minicast is dedicated to. This should take about 20 minutes, but I imagine will often go on for longer.
- Discussion: The heart of the matter. This is where we start talking about whatever game is on the agenda.
- Wrap-up and sign off: Host closes out show, thanks guests, etc. etc.
The podcast is focused on being concise and to the point to keep its listeners' attention. With that in mind, each episode would probably consist of two guests and myself, since any larger number of participants can get really messy really fast over something like Skype.
Where Can I Find it?
The minicast will be available via iTunes, Buzzsprout and my blog here on the site. Whether or not guests embed the minicast into their own blogs is completely up to them. I will update this space with the relevant links as soon as they are available.What's Next?
I'm currently looking at covering one or all of the following games:- Mass Effect 2 (one slot left).
- Bioshock 2.
- Darksiders.
- Dark Void.
If you're interested in appearing on any of these episodes or would like to suggest an episode yourself, please PM me or send an e-mail to the.irregulars@live.ca (please include your forum name). Unless otherwise stated there are two available positions on any given show, so feel free to suggest another community member if you feel like they would have something interesting to say about any of these games. And finally:
When?
The first episode will be up as soon as its recorded, but we're missing one person to talk about ME2! If you're interested (someone out there must be), again, PM me or send an e-mail to the.irregulars@live.ca. I'm pleasantly flabbergasted at the positive feedback the minicast has received so far. Thanks for the support, everyone.Thanks for reading,
End_Boss.
