Megan:
i don't get your dead air podcast
-
me:
its absurd
-
Megan:
it's just white noise, right?
-
me:
yes, like its gonna be a hundred episodes of just static, its ridiculous
-
Megan:
you're making it?
-
me:
yes, an exercise in futility
-
Megan:
why are you doing that? I truly don't get it

me:
OK, 1) on top of the bizarre/ insane idea of hundreds of episodes of static that it is predicated upon, the FUNNY PART/ VALUE is the elaborate nonsense description of what the episode is about...

Megan:

me:
2) i am inverting why you would subscribe to a podcast, using it for an entirely diferent purpose than audio, the interesting part is the blurb, not the audio, so people sign up to read the blurb, not to listen
