Deep Fought

Good day, ladies and sirs, and welcome to episode seven. We have now decided to credit our guests in text form as well as on the show itself, so without further ado we disclose that our good friend Austin joined us this week. There. Acknowledged. The topic at hand was virtual reality, but as is par for the course we approached it in a muddled and confusing fashion. This episode's mistakes include:The much anticipated return of audio quality issues! We've peaked, guys. It's back down the hill from here, mostly due to microphone wobbling, table bumps and constantly changing distances from each of the three speakers.Noticeably less coherent sentence structure and thought processes due to overall tiredness and alcohol.No photographs were taken of Michael and Austin cuddling.Egregious factual inaccuracies.Try to imagine it.

I don't want to rub it in but we almost know what we're doing now. You should feel intimidated by our professionalism. But that's not really in the spirit of this podcast, which is all about being less offensive and more positive. (With questionable success.) We'll leave that up to you to judge. This episode's mistakes include:The gentle clinking of whiskey on the rocks.Forced positivity from two generally depressed guys.Unintentionally revealing admissions.Egregious factual inaccuracies.Think happy thoughts.

Episode five already!? Man, it feels like just five weeks ago that we were doing episode one. In the first episode released since we officially launched, we gently plateau as we stop trying and ride it out into retirement. Many thanks to everyone that checked out our stuff this week. That was nice. Anyway, this episode's mistakes include:Audible leather couch squeaks and microphone bumps return for flavour. Other than that, we've managed to hold onto a decent audio quality now, even with the inclusion of a third guest. Man we're good. And woman. (Equality.) Trickled out ending with no satisfying conclusion.Embarrassing lack of mathematical skills from one host.Egregious factual inaccuracies.We'll take what we can get.

Wow. I don't want to overhype this one but it's great and everyone should agree. We found a good topic and our sound is the best it's ever been. I even moved the computer further away so that you can't hear whirring. And you really can't, for quite a while. Boy, we're good. This episode's mistakes include:Inability to allow moments of professionalism to go by unnoticed, resulting in rampant unprofessionalism.Long periods without jokes or silliness.Occasional audio problems to remind you that we're not actually good at this.Egregious factual inaccuracies.Don't let that dissuade you though. Listening to this may almost feel worthwhile.

Well. Let's just call it a learning experience. Pilot episode number three sees us attempt to improve on last week, with little success. Blame the old laptop. I think we got the levels of our voices balanced correctly, so at least that's something. This episode's mistakes include:Average audio quality. The persistent whirr is really, as pretentious TV writers like to claim, another character of the show.Stilted moments arising from arguably ridiculous topic of discussion.Attempting to atone for casual racism of last podcast and then making it worse.Egregious factual inaccuracies.At this point it's starting to become a habit.

Phew. Glad we got that first episode out of the way. And you'll be glad too, because this episode features OCCASIONAL improvements. This is probably part two of us getting our shit together in what we shall henceforth lovingly refer to as our pilot episode triptych. This episode's mistakes include:Average audio quality. (Yes, folks, that's an official bump up from the first episode. Our levels are more balanced, and there are no creaks, but a new computer fan whirr joins the list of things to fix next week.)Too much housekeeping, including lengthy introduction and formless structure.An unfortunate amount of discussion about rapists.Egregious factual inaccuracies.Still, progress is progress.

Oh boy. The first episode. I get why people do pilots of shows now. We learnt so many things after this one. This episode's mistakes include:Terrible audio quality. Yeesh. Sorry. So many creaks and clinks. Nick's too loud. Ben's too quiet. We know. Sorry.Structureless meandering. We were figuring it out as we went along. Rambling intro, abrupt ending.None of the hosts ever looked at the camera.Egregious factual inaccuracies.By almost every metric, this episode should have never been released. Enjoy!
