New episode on youtube

You may have seen this on the forums possibly, but esper is trying something with the podcast where they mix some stock footage with some filters and insert credit-y colors to create a moving looping backdrop for the show on youtube. We're not sure whether this will take off, but we figure the more places to share the better.

Any thoughts...

How we answer questions

A recent guest on the show asked how we always have something to say about every topic, and whether we do research in advance, so I (brandon) thought it might be interesting to discuss the sort of rhythm we've fallen into when answering questions on the show.

First of all, we definitely do not have the questions in advance so can rarely d...

Azurelore's introduction to insert credit

After the show, she rediscovered this piece of writing from 2002, recounting her introduction to the site, though not quite getting to where she joins up.

It also includes a small review of a portion of one of tim's early unpublished novels. After the anniversary episode we thought it might be an interesting curio for you all!

Hey folks! Brandon here.


You may have noticed that the last episode didn't have tim in it, and you will soon notice that the next one doesn't either.
