So we recorded a new SEQALAB today, the awesome comics podcast the Sequential department of SCAD puts out. But before that, Jeremy “Sweetwater” Mullins, the main man in charge of the podcast wanted to lay down some ground rules, since he’d been away in Lacoste for the past 5 months.
To be fair, we let SEQALAB get pretty lax while Kevin and Jarrett ran the show, and I could see Jeremy’s take that we’re going to have to keep on topic, and keep things in line. But there was a definite split between the cast at the meeting, alot of people were either all for the structure or several who were really pissed that their freedom to be themselves might be stripped away.
Either way, it was a tense recording session, but I think as the weeks go on everybody will loosen up and learn to live with the new rules.
LISTEN TO SEQALAB DAMMIT! Go on iTunes and seek it out!!
Hmm. I think that there’s a rift in me about the idea of structure vs. no-structure. I really like it when there’s a topic and the discussion gets into a lot of depth, but I also love the tangents that crop up (and they often lead to good points). But I doubt that there is going to be an iron regime of structure, so tangents will still happen.
And as long as you all keep being awesome, everything will be okay!
ultimately, its all about compromise…we’ll figure something out….
I just hope they didn’t think i left because i was annoyed with it or anything….but again, I doubt they noticed I was gone…
So since I wasn’t fucking there (thank you very MUCH, work, for putting me on Fridays even though I tell you time and time again NOT to put me on on Friday nights), what changes are being made?
I for one am for more structure. Yeah, it’s fun to just chew the fat and joke around, but the biggest complaint I get from listeners is that many times we are trying to talk over each other and it gets really hard to follow as a listener. So I’m in the camp of structure. I mean, we are still going to have fun, we just gotta keep some things in check for the sake of the show and for our listeners.
And oh yeah, I won’t be at the show AGAIN this up coming Friday thanks to work. Fucking laaaaame.
