Topic: The Intermission - 001

So, holy crap, we're trying a thing. We're doing an entirely different, separate show, called The Intermission. The idea is that it's a thirty minute non-commentary conversation about whatever we want to talk about, to take place between commentaries, hence the title.

It'd be interesting if that paragraph needed to be longer to explain the thing, but really, that's it. There will be homepage integration once the new site goes live, but for now, Holden has built a temporary page to house the episodes.

With that said, enjoy the first episode of The Intermission.

clap

Is this gonna get its own iTunes feed? Will it be integrated into the DiF feed? Or will it stay website-exclusive?

Re: The Intermission - 001

Well, you tell us. I figure we put the first couple in the DIF feed so everyone knows about it, and then give it its own. (But that's because I'm not sure the average DIF subscriber would want to have off-topic talk radio forced upon them.)

Re: The Intermission - 001

Maybe ads or announcements for it in the DiF feed? Maybe even before or after episodes for a few weeks?

Re: The Intermission - 001

Based on the intro, I think the intermission should basically be 30 minutes of musical theatre.

Re: The Intermission - 001

By the way, now that I've actually listened, this is really fantastic stuff. Good job, everyone.

Re: The Intermission - 001

I would love to do a DIF musical.

Love.

Okay. That was fun. I look forward to more. I'm with Fixed. The little song was pretty amazing.

Warning: I'm probably rewriting this post as you read it.

Re: The Intermission - 001

Thanks, guys. I was worried about the reception to the song, but people seem okay with it. I recorded a lil video of it tonight.

Teague, I love your music and you should make more of it. I once again repeat: If you made an It's Godless and Beeps album, I would pay you real life money for it.

Re: The Intermission - 001

Not saying anything about the intro, I think the format is/was great. It gives much more time to talk things other than the running movie. Good idea guys (TEAGUE).

Watching movies is like being drunk. First it is great but most of the times it ends poorly.

Re: The Intermission - 001

It's like when you wait through the the credits and closing theme song of a regular DIF ep, to hear ten seconds of off-air conversation, out of irresistible curiosity about what these guys talk about when you're not around.

Except with a theme song.

Sure, I'll listen to that. smile

Re: The Intermission - 001

I'm psyched that you guys are into it. I wasn't sure if it would just seem redundant.  big_smile

Funny, in the past month Colin and Ian were both in the apartment of doom.

Re: The Intermission - 001

Ian Hubert makes awesome stuff. I've been waiting for Project London to get released ever since he posted on a few forums looking for artists. I wanted to get in on that, but there's no way in hell I would have been up to snuff. I wasn't even aware of TFN until recently.

Show was awesome as always. It's not really redundant at all and I was kinda hoping you guys would start doing a non-commentary podcast about movies and fandom and VFX and random stuff.

This is great.  "You go back to your old internet posts and you say 'fuck me.'"  A deep truth right there.

Re: The Intermission - 001

Started listening to this on my way to work today.  This is absolutely brilliant, I have to say.  What a great idea, guys.  I look forward to the next one.
