Tuned In, Dialed Up

Brought to you from a hotel room in Philadelphia, Wil sits down with Amanda McLoughlin, Eric Silver, and Julia Schifini to discuss what makes a good podcast social media presence.

Gavin's not really in this one as he wasn't in Philly, let there be celebrating in the street.

Sorry! Life happened, an episode got eated by whack coding. To make up for the delay, Wil and Gavin bust out a hearty discussion of audiobooks, audio drama, and why we have beef with books pretending to be podcasts.

This is a VERY lightly edited version of Tuned In Dialed Up, Gavin will have about 7 hours to sleep before heading out for a 4 hour road trip very early tomorrow morning. There are far more ums and ahs and several tangents that probably would've been cut if time allowed. Consider this TIDU: Unplugged.

Wil and Gavin sail the spoiler seas, talking about subjects they’re excited about but also violate TIDU Prime’s strict no-spoiler rule! This time around our plucky podcasters talk about the emotional series finale of The Bright Sessions.

Back in the saddle alone, the dynamic duo of Wil and Gavin discuss monetizing podcasts, how it's been done quite poorly, and how we think crowdfunding is one of the only two good options. We dish on how garbage Howl was/is, the nature of podcasting working against traditional monetization, and then talk about some dope shows.

Discussed this episode:

Discussion topic: What are our thoughts on attempts to monetize podcasts?

Podcast exchange.

Pun-tastic presentation of podcasts we think should exist.

Transcript coming soon!

We're back with the last half of our session with James! Buckle up as we talk about tired trops, ineffective plot devices, and all the other things in horror podcasting that just don't work these days. Oh, and at some point Gavin reveals the existence of a William Shatner paintball movie and things go off the rails.

Podcast recommendations and THE PUNS return!

PLEASE REDOWNLOAD THIS! If you downloaded this episode within an hour of it coming out, please delete the file and re-download. Gavin messed up the edit and had to go back and fix a few things to make it listen-able.

This week Gavin and Will are joined by the wonderful James Olvia of What's The Frequency, today's episode features discussion of moments in horror podcasting (and beyond) we found the most effective.

Stay tuned for part two latter this week!

This episode Wil and Gavin straddle two backwards chairs because it's time to discuss something serious. Topics discussed include pitfalls of being a director in a project full of friends, LGBT+ representation in casting, and dealing with problematic bosses. Also features a normal episode's worth of goofiness, of course. Three puns, even.

Featuring special clip guest stars Sean Howard, Eli McIlveen, and Julia Schifini.Featuring special clip guest stars Sean Howard, Eli McIlveen, and Julia Schifini.
