So Are We Gonna Get Another Episode or What

[BomberJacket]

It seems like many of the topics covered donlt have room to expand. For instance: ice chewing. I chew ice, I realize that it's not normal, but I don't go on an ice chewing forum. That's like all there is to say about it unless you can find some kind of ice connaisseur.

Now that said, negative topics could work. You could find some ex-Childfree folks and ask them about what drew them to the community, what it was like, and why they decided to leave. Now it would be a one-sided discussion as these people would have reasons for leaving the community, but I'd definitely like to learn more about some of these communities.

I know some extreme fandom folks who probably would be interested in talking.

I just finished listening to ALL THREE of the Irregular episodes and I really wish that you'd make more ;(

I know they wanted to do a brony episode but that fell through.

Yeah, and a couple of failed starts at a trans* episode as well.

I used to know a couple people IRL who are into Irregular-tier stuff along these lines and the issue isn't that they're too fucked up and weird -- it's that they're too narcissistic to ever want to talk to. I'm going to guess that's very common!

I'd be game to be a part of a trans episode, if people are willing to put up with my horrible, horrible voice.

BTW, you don't need to put the asterisk after trans.

Y'know, I think Gender Regex would be right up Tumblr's alley, actually.

fuck you, my gender requires a context-free parser (i'm a pumping lemma-kin)

[Lemon]

Well, that's one reason why I think a trans episode would be both worth doing and very difficult to do.

I think the topic seems to have a whole lot of linguistic distinctions that I know I don't understand as well as I could, but I also know that a lot of those distinctions are dicey and personal, so it's the line of wanting to know more vs you did it all wrong.

Also, just to reiterate an earlier point, I'be given up on casting this thing myself. If there's interested parties with a decent headset and a willingness to record on a certain day, I'll take it from there.

[Kaleidoscope]

This is just a suggestion but why not do an episode about autism? It seems to be a recurring theme in some of the podcasts. And if so, I'll totally be a subject on the podcast.

As for trans people, I might know someone who might be interested

FWIW I reread this post, and I'm pretty sure I came off as super shitty. I read "trans*" as "trans[something crazy]" (tumblr genders and sexualities, etc.) but it occurs to me now that "trans[anything, including normal things]" is probably what Lemon meant. Sorry to anyone not into the tumblr gender thing who I implied was too narcissistic to talk to. Unless you're demanding bun/bunself pronouns or something, it's overwhelmingly likely I didn't mean you.
