So with the relaunch of the podcast I'm sure you've noticed a few things have changed already. Neither of us yet have had a chance to sit down and explain all of it yet because some of it has been getting finalized as we go.
First off the name has obviously change from The Failed Social Experiment to Two Jerks Talk About. The new name is less of a head scratcher and makes more sense. Plus it was nice to have a fresh start honestly for all that creative direction shit.
The format of the content is stating the same but the organization is different. This is still a balls out any topic vocal shitfest. We won't limit ourselves to just one subject and dry hump it like a dead horse. The structure per show will change. We're no longer doing an hour to two hour free-for-all in each episode and switching topics and themes like crazy. It got too confusing and too damn frustrating. From now on each show recorded will be subject specific (sports, tech, ranting, entertainment) and will be available to download as such. This should help us keep things on track more than we managed previously. We're also not doing a hard date of one day per week to record it all. Ideally we still want to keep Saturdays as a standard recording day for whatever comes up, but we'll also have the flexibility to run shows anytime during the week that we choose to. All episodes will still be posted on the site for download as soon as we finish recording and do some editing to clean up.
This should also work as a convenience to many listeners who don't have a particular interest in specific topics and won't be forced into listening to a whole show which may not appeal to them.
As always, everything stays free for the content. We have been looking at available options to help with offsetting costs on our end seeing as we fund it all out of pocket. Let's be honest, costs for hosting, bandwidth, recording equipment and all that other shit can add up and we don't have sponsors or any of that awesome shit to back us financially. The last thing we plan to do is to force money from anyone. So we're looking at various options like a limited amount of advertising services or possibly even a donation thing if anyone is feeling so inclined. As we work out more on that we'll update everyone.
Again we plan on starting to record this weekend for the relaunch. Content is getting hammered out now between us to use. This weekend is also Wrestlemania so we're planing on live tweeting that one as it goes. Good times!
I think that's enough rambling for now. If any has a question feel free to hit us up via email or Twitter with the buttons over there and up there.
