Life Transformations, Anna Reichardt and Nessworks
Anna Reichardt describes how the podcast helped her transition from a "raging liberal" to a more critical thinker, shrinking her "amygdala." Nessworks, a frequent art contributor, shares a humorous anecdote about sending a VHS clip of Adam Curry's hair from the 1989 MTV Awards to the hosts. The segment highlights the interactive nature of the show's community.
Joe Rogan revealed he refused to pay a $500 submission fee to be considered for a Golden Globe in the podcast category. The hosts agree with Rogan's stance, arguing that most industry awards are "phony" because they require entry fees and trophies must often be purchased by the winners.
Podcast Artwork Standards, Evergreen Submissions
The hosts provide feedback to contributing artists, requesting that they submit versions of their work without show numbers to allow for "evergreen" use. They emphasize that the artwork must be attractive and avoid cringeworthy imagery like coronavirus spikes to better represent the show.
Podcast Production Workflow, Listener Video Submissions
The production process for the show operates on a "last in, first out" (LIFO) basis due to the high volume of content submitted by producers. Listeners are advised that long video submissions sent late in the week are unlikely to be reviewed in time for the broadcast. The hosts emphasize the efficiency of audio-only formats over the distractions inherent in video podcasting.
