A bonus act

Tangents about trashy/snobby movies because I can’t help myself
And more…
I’ll use this space to solicit feedback on episode topics, recurring formats, and Patreon rewards. And I’ll share logos, intro music, and other production materials as they come together. You have been a reliable and generous support system, so I want to bring you into the process.
I’m only a few steps past the starter pistol. I need a finish line to run toward. This is me publicly setting one.
Thank you for being here at the very, very, very beginning. Tell me what your dream video game podcast format and guest list would be in the comments!
I also enjoy Triple Click's 'one more thing' and Besties 'honorable mentions' as a way to have a tiny bit of random other recommendations of games, other media, etc.
I will also say, the podcasts i enjoy the most also have some aspect of listener mail semi regularly (e.g. doesnt need to be every episode), as I've seen that help build community through that interaction.
Based on what you outlined, I would love to see you do a show that's sort of like Soren Johnson's Designer Notes, but focused on (relatively) current releases as opposed to the long retrospectives he does. Or a very bite sized NoClip doc in audio form. Give the audience some context and then jump into a short interview. Occasionally Remap Radio does stuff like this, but not often.
I don't think we get enough interviews with developers big and small. Given the wide net you seem to be casting, I'd even broaden it to other industry folks like marketing/business folks, conference/festival organizers, hardware designers/manufacturers, gaming historians and preservationists, etc. Break out of the critic bubble and demystify a different parts of the industry. Like Bloomberg's Odd Lots podcast but for games.
