Tacos, Tech, And Tangles: A Podcaster’s Guide To Not Freaking Out

Press record before you feel ready. That’s the energy we bring as we swap honest lessons from the early days of building a podcast from a simple setup above a noisy bar. We get practical about Buzzsprout, how an RSS feed actually syndicates your show, and the small stack of tools that make shipping easier: AI help for titles and descriptions, and audio cleanup that saves hours without killing the vibe. The goal isn’t perfection; it’s momentum.

We also get into the creator head game: why everyone hates their own voice, how to edit yourself without spiraling, and the balance between planning and letting a conversation breathe. Our approach is simple: pick an anchor topic, allow detours, then loop back to land the plane. That structure keeps episodes human and still listener-friendly. And yes, life intrudes—taco emergencies, tea breaks, weather talk—but we treat those moments as texture, not flaws.

Then we swerve into pop culture with a hot debate over Superman, the DCU reboot, and franchise fatigue. Casting rants, continuity gripes, and questions about origin stories reveal a deeper theme: audiences will follow change when the rules feel coherent. Podcasters face the same contract with listeners—set expectations, evolve with intent, and communicate the why. We connect that to catalog strategy: keep clean archives, name files clearly, and repurpose highlights into clips, transcripts, and paywalled extras through Buzzsprout or Patreon-style tools.

If you’re starting a show, or restarting with fresh energy, this conversation is your nudge: show up, define “done,” release on schedule, and improve one notch at a time. Subscribe, leave a review if you’re feeling it, and tell us the one topic you want us to tackle next. Your ideas fuel the next recording.

And before we get in uh anyfurther, I do want to welcome
everybody to the show.
Appreciate everybody showing upas we're you know, having a good

But yeah, none of dude.
I mean so far, we got a budsprout, Patreon, a little bit of

(00:36):
YouTube.
How many videos we got onYouTube so far?
Like five?
That's not bad.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 (00:45):
Five.

SPEAKER_01 (00:46):
And what about what about Patreon?

SPEAKER_03 (00:48):
Patreon, nothing.
Nothing?
I can't figure out how to postsomething up.
I think we have to do that stufflive.

SPEAKER_01 (00:54):
Really?

SPEAKER_03 (00:54):
Yeah, dude.
Meaning we have to cut this offand then we have to go on there.

SPEAKER_01 (00:59):
Patreon.
So Patreon's the live one?
I didn't know that.
Yeah.
I thought Patreon was almostlike Bush Prout.
What's the difference then?
So we could let our people know.

SPEAKER_03 (01:08):
Yeah, Patreon is is it's not live, but uh we can't
take this stuff and post it overthere.
So we have to actively log on toPatreon.

SPEAKER_01 (01:18):
We log on to Patreon, and then whatever we
do.

SPEAKER_03 (01:20):
From what I understand, from my
understanding, I'm not sayingthat's what you have to do.
I'm still looking into it, butfrom what I see is that you
can't just download whatever.
You have I mean, yeah, it'sgonna since it's linked, it is
linked to Buzz Sprout, so itwill play our weekly episode per

(01:40):
week.
It doesn't save a library.
So when we post another one up,that last one goes out.
Another one pops up.
You can't edit it on uh on Wehave to edit it.
It's everything through througheverything is through Buzz
Buzzsprout.

SPEAKER_01 (01:55):
And then from Buzzsprout, it shoots it out to
Patreon.

SPEAKER_03 (01:59):
Like I told Patreon, check out I gave a Patreon our
RSS feed, because that's whatyou need as a podcaster.
You you get an RSS feed.
That's what's a what's a RSthat's what tells the other
platforms this is our podcastand all that stuff.
That's what distinguishes usfrom everybody else, as far as
name or anything else.

(02:20):
We get you know, just like theconcentration camps, we're given
a number.
So they give us a number, right?
Yeah.
Or I mean you can pick your ownname and try and go in there and
see if whether your name is isbeen used up or not.
But I mean, I'd rather just makeit easy and just get whatever
fucking number, whatever it is,RSS feed link they gave me

(02:44):
that's usable.
I just yeah, I don't want tohave to say that.
That's kind of like when you crywhen you try to create a creator
name and then I'll tell youwhat, we when we hit over 500 uh
uh downloads, then then thenI'll worry about then I'll worry
about all the rest of all that.
But for now, it's like yeah, youknow.

SPEAKER_01 (03:00):
Yeah, well, I just want to thank the people that do
take the time to download thisvideo.

SPEAKER_03 (03:03):
Yeah, for sure, for sure.
I mean uh that's why I said thatis to uh to motivate our
listeners to uh hit thatsubscribe button or too.
I mean, once they hit play, it'sit's pretty much downloaded.

SPEAKER_01 (03:14):
Oh, okay, that's cool.

SPEAKER_03 (03:15):
Hit the play button.
And and and hopefully we havesome uh add us to your favorite
podcast list or whatever.

SPEAKER_01 (03:21):
Yeah, yeah.
And hopefully we have somepeople who stay tuned in and can
like what we got going on hereand you know.
But as far as Bud Sprout and uhPatreon, I feel like we use
Budspout Bud Sprout more thananything.

SPEAKER_03 (03:34):
Well, I mean, they're the ones that are
getting us out there, they'rethe ones we're paying.
True.

SPEAKER_01 (03:38):
And and what and is that the one is Budsprout no
Buzzprout's not the one with theAI thing that helps you?
Yeah, that's true.

SPEAKER_03 (03:44):
Is it I mean they all do it, but I mean these guys
are pretty pretty spot on aboutit.

SPEAKER_01 (03:50):
I would recommend it for people who are not I'm not
really good at uh titlingtitling uh the show.

SPEAKER_03 (03:55):
I mean, first of all, you have to remember what
it is the show is about, whichwe're really bad about.
And then you have to really uhpick out some key words
throughout the show in in as faras the different subjects we
talk about to and a co-host AIreally does a great job.

(04:15):
AI co-host does a great job ofjust doing all that for us.
So it's it's worth the tendollars a month.

SPEAKER_01 (04:22):
Oh, that's not bad.
Ten dollars of it's not bad, andthen um it clears out most of
the noise, too, ain't it?

SPEAKER_03 (04:26):
Well, no, that's uh magic mastering.
That's another ten dollars.
So twenty dollars in total forboth those both those options,
but it's it's phenomenal, dude.

SPEAKER_01 (04:36):
I'm not gonna lie to you.
It's a great service.

SPEAKER_03 (04:37):
Uh I I use the crap.
We I mean, literally everythinguh you read from our
descriptions of the show andeverything else, that's all
co-host they are.
Believe me, I wish I was thatlinguistic or whatever.
Uh the way they put the wordstogether, the word play.

SPEAKER_01 (04:53):
I remember when we started and we tried to do our
own.
Oh man, that was it was a neededwork.
No, but now that um I I I mean,I hopefully the people can see
the difference.

SPEAKER_03 (05:04):
Oh yeah, I mean, if we could see the difference.
Oh yeah, you're right.
I guess I do hope that peoplethat are that tune in and uh
those two or three listenersthat are listening in evidently
are noticing the difference.

SPEAKER_01 (05:17):
I I do.
When I uh you know, um it'sfunny because like I was telling
you earlier, I feel like a lotof people when they start a
podcast, the first thing to getover is hearing yourself.
You know, I'm not a big fan ofmy voice.

SPEAKER_03 (05:29):
Well, the first thing to get over is getting on
the mic.
Yeah, especially after that.
When you get when it comes tothe editing after that, then
yes, you have to get over thefact that you're listening to
yourself and your voice.
Everybody hates the sound oftheir own voice, which is weird
because everybody loves to hearthemselves talk.
Not me.
Everybody loves to hearthemselves talk, but nobody

(05:50):
loves the sound of their voice.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (05:52):
You know, I think it's because um that's a
paradox, isn't it?
Yeah, it is.

SPEAKER_03 (05:57):
One of those human paradoxes of ours right there.

SPEAKER_01 (05:59):
I I think what it is is in our head we sound one way,
and when we Oh no, yeah, that'sfor sure, dude.

SPEAKER_03 (06:06):
Believe me, I know.
In my head, I sound like fuckinguh Clark Hat Superman fucking
just uh formal and all thatshit.
But then I hear myself on thephone on the radio.

SPEAKER_02 (06:22):
He went ahead that away, he went a that away.
No, uh which way did he go?
Which which way did he go?

SPEAKER_01 (06:29):
Yeah, yeah.
No, uh what I speaking of ClarkCandy, what I don't like dude.

SPEAKER_03 (06:35):
Speaking of Clark Kand, what I don't like, uh I'm
gonna I'm so sorry to stop meright there, bro.
I finally watched the damnSuperman movie.
I'm I'm I don't know if you knowthis.
I have a Superman tattoo.
Let's hear it.
I grew up there, dude.
There's there's kid, there'schildhood pictures of me in
Superman costumes growing up.
I Superman was my dude.

(06:56):
Superman still is my dude.
No matter what, Superman's myguy.
But all I'm gonna say withoutgoing into too much detail.
Oh, I'm gonna go into detail.
Go go watch the movies, all Icould say.
But for my detail is that, yeah,Henry Cabill was the Superman,
bro.
Who's Henry Campbell?
Henry Cabill.

SPEAKER_01 (07:16):
What what Superman?
Uh year of Steel.
Man of Steel.
What year was that?

of steel.
Who is the new actor then?
Huh?
Who's the new actor?

SPEAKER_01 (07:33):
Who's the new actor that just did the new Superman?
How did you like it?

SPEAKER_03 (07:39):
The man of steel, Henro Cavill, is Superman.
That's all I can tell you rightthere.

SPEAKER_01 (07:44):
Just like Peter Parker is the OG Spider-Man.
I don't know about this new guy,this British guy, I forgot his
name.
Yeah.
I'm not I'm not messing withhim.
He's he seems like a good actor,don't get me wrong, but you
can't tell me he's Spider-Man.

SPEAKER_03 (07:57):
Don't get me wrong.
I'm sure I don't know, becauselike I used to be a family guy,
but now I'm just uh, you know,my kids are adults and they're
doing their own thing, so it'sjust me at home or just watching
these movies on my own.
I don't know.
I I can't really, I can neverreally explain what it is about
movies that don't hit the mark,but it just didn't hit the mark.

(08:21):
It it was and I I'm sure theythey went off of some sort of a
Superman era of comics orsomething like that, but yeah,
no, it uh it didn't do it forme.
Don't forget your tacos.

SPEAKER_01 (08:36):
Oh my god.
And I got a bone to pick withClark Ken.
She calmed you down, and we'reback.
So, like I was saying, uh thosetacos, those fucking tacos,
yeah.

SPEAKER_03 (08:49):
And then we had a taco difficulty here.
Here they're here at the shakes,you know, but uh it's it's all
been taken care of, and believeme, it was definitely worth it.
We'll leave it at that to to tobe TBC for later.
You know, this for for a latertime.

SPEAKER_01 (09:08):
So um you were saying that the still demands.

SPEAKER_03 (09:12):
You were saying you had you had a bone to pick with
the.

SPEAKER_01 (09:14):
I think I think I I don't know if I said this in
another show already.
I just want to reiterate.

SPEAKER_03 (09:18):
No, no, no, you haven't.
This is news to me now.
This is breaking news to meeven.

SPEAKER_01 (09:22):
I don't like how when he puts his glasses on,
he's all of a sudden like, oh mygod, we're Superman.
You know what I mean?
Like, dude, fucking serious?
Glasses?
That that just that's all ittook?
And I'm not gonna lie, dude.
You put some glasses on somepeople, and yeah, they do look
different, you know.
But it's just really it's like,come on, bro, I know that's him,

(09:44):
bro.
You know it's him, I know it'shim.

SPEAKER_03 (09:46):
Yeah, you know, it's you know, it's a movie.
I guess that's something.
Yeah, but don't forget it's amovie.
I don't know about Superman likethat, but no, actually, they
kind of touched up on that alittle bit, but it was kind of a
theory.
In the end, you have to watchthe movie, but honestly, it like
isn't it?
Yeah, and on and to be and frommy from my point of view, I uh

(10:07):
before this movie came out afterthe last Justice League movie in
that lull, I was thinking, Imean, if they come out, if it if
this one's done and HenryCavill's not the not still
Superman, I don't really want tosee another origin story.
I don't we've seen like how manywe've seen quite a few origin

(10:29):
stories already for Batman, forSuperman, mainly mainly Batman,
but still, you see, you've seenthe origin story in the 80s with
Christopher Reeves, you've seenit now with uh you've seen it,
you've seen it everywhere in theshows, all the shows, it's all
the same stuff.
It might slightly be different,but it's all the same thing.

(10:50):
Um I was glad that they kind oflike just kind of hit the ground
running.
We're like, we already know youguys fucking know his backstory,
so let's just get rid of thatshit.
But that's great that they didthat.
But what I did not like is thatnow you have it's like okay,
yeah, we we're gonna appease youwith like hitting the ground

(11:10):
running.
Fuck the origin story, but thenthey hit us with like robots and
shit.
Like, you know what I'm saying?
Like these robots.
Have you seen the new one?
Okay, then I'm gonna get so thatthey get they hit us with a dog,
they hit us with a rope, and Iget it.
There's a dog and all thatcrypto, but but that was the
most care if that's the case.

(11:31):
Crypto comics, if from what Iremember, because I never really
got into that whole thing or theor the the connections
connecting that no, theconnecting comics to that crypto
has but I know that that thewhole crypto thing was a really
campy story.
Very campy.

SPEAKER_01 (11:49):
He has his own story, the dog?

SPEAKER_03 (11:50):
Yeah, yeah.
At some point, it's in it's avery like kids' comic books,
it's like a children's bookcomic book.
Well, he is a good thing.
Is what I'm saying.
Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_01 (12:00):
True.

SPEAKER_03 (12:00):
Does he kick ass?
So that whole thing is campy,it's very chill, childlike, but
then they hit you with theserobots that are part of the the
Fortress of Solitude and allthis other bullshit, and and
they never really explain wherehe says the dog's not his, but
he doesn't really explain wherewhose it is, and I get it later

(12:21):
on.
You have to watch the movie,watch the movies, all I'm
saying.
So I'm not yeah, I'm justtelling you, I'm just saying
there's a lot of things that youjust have to okay.
So I guess this is happening,and that's just a normal thing,
and that's happening, and that'sa normal thing, and okay, but
like I I saw some a couple ofYouTube videos shorts on um how

(12:44):
they pick how they casted uhcornsweat and and uh the Lois
Land character, I forget hername.
Terrible okay.
To me, it was worse than a CWcast.
It really was.
What's a CW so the DCEU was inpart the whoever was making Man

(13:10):
of Steel, the Batman movies withBen Affleck and all that stuff,
Aquaman, The Flash, WonderWoman, that was DCEU.
But DCEU means Detective ComicsExtended Universe, meaning that
some of the TV shows that mainlycame out on CW, like the the one

(13:34):
with uh all those superheroesthat were like time traveling or
alternate reality traveling, Iforget, I forget what it's
called, but there was that one,there was Green Lantern, there
was there was also Flash, whichreally wasn't canon to it, but
it they still made it.
There was uh a whole bunch ofother DC the DC Lois and

(13:54):
Superman, Superman Lois thatwere a part of the DC EU.
But the DC EU ended and the DCUjust Detective Comics universe,
which is just the movies, andand whatever little shows
they're gonna they're coming outon in Disney Plus are a part of

(14:15):
that that whole thing.
Forget everything else, forgetforget the Justice League show,
the no no Teen Titans show,forget the Justice League
movies, all that other stuff.
Has nothing to do with with thisSuperman movie.
This is a whole brand new forthe new generation.
Yeah, forget forget everythingelse you that you saw from your

(14:37):
throw it out the window.
Throw it out the window.
This is a whole new retelling ofthe Detective Comics universe
because it got so jumbled up,and that sucks for a lot of the
shows, like The Doom Patrol,that was a really great fucking
show.
I don't know.
It's just for me, it that's soweird because I was I'm more of

(14:57):
a DC comics guy than I am aMarvels guy.
So I don't know, it just seemslike they've really gotten off
the deep end.
Even with the the uh the HarleyQuinn movie, uh don't get me
wrong, the Birds of Prey was agreat movie.
Not that one, the the fucking uhthose guys with uh Will Smith

(15:19):
and Harley Quinn.
Suicide Squad.
Uh the Suicide Squad.
I don't know.
And I get I'm sure it was truetrue to the comics, but it's
just the storylines.
You know what?
The first one was good, thesecond one, volume two, it was
so far-fetched, man.
They they introduce the fuckingthat creature that creature

(15:41):
thing that gets like comes outin the beginning and then
towards the end, which by theway is brother to the guy that's
now running the D DC, okay,that's now running the the the
Superman DC universe now.
So that guy that played thatcreature, I forget his name,

(16:05):
it's like a fucking mirror cator some bullshit, I forget what
it is.
But that guy also played the guyon Guardians of the Galaxy
that's uh part of uh the thedude with the with the floating
stick he's whistling in thefloating stick, his his second
in command in Guardians of theGalaxy.

(16:26):
Guardians of the Galaxy, youknow, okay.
The only thing I know aboutGuardian Galaxy.
So you know the blue guy thatthat's Space Lord's space dad or
whatever, the guy that kidnappedhim.
Anyways, so he has he has asecond in command.
So that dude's brother is nowruns the DC universe, DCU.

(16:48):
So he directed, he he's the onethat that made he's the one
that's in charge of everythingthat that Superman Batman that's
coming out from now on afterBatman 2.
The Batman 2.

SPEAKER_01 (17:01):
Batman 2.

SPEAKER_03 (17:01):
So the Batman 2 is the last of the past DC stuff,
DCEU shit.
Now, after the Batman 2 happens,there it's a wall.
Now it's DCU, now it's allwhatever James Gunn says goes,
and that's a part of whatever.

(17:22):
So he's do he's doing the wholemonsters and gods storyline,
which is really, really justit's overplayed out.
I don't really know.
I just don't really rememberreading that whole comic series,
but it for me just it almostseemed like um Wonder Woman 70,
whatever the fuck it was.
Wonder Woman 87 or 78 orwhatever it was, dude.

(17:43):
It was just yeah, it just Idon't know.
I don't know if I'm just gettingtoo old now or or what, but no.
Henry Cavill and all those therest of that they hit the mark
on the on the uh cast, but it'sit sucks that they that all
these people that they castedwere already so far, well most
of them that's not true.

(18:04):
They're just all fucking divasin one sense or another.
Do you understand what I'msaying?
Not all of them, but they allcome with their specific
requirements, requirements,fucking all that bullshit.

SPEAKER_01 (18:15):
The fucking the the the frames gotta be this the
worst of them, Ezra Miller,fucking the flash, dude.

SPEAKER_03 (18:20):
That that's a flash.
Fucking kid is a fucking idiot.
He's a fucking didn't he uh if Iever see that kid I'll slap the
shit out of him.
I don't give a fuck, dude.
I'll hopefully it'll smack fivecents, five, five finger cents
into his ass.
You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_01 (18:34):
What doesn't doesn't he like didn't he beat somebody
up or something?

SPEAKER_03 (18:36):
He's a stupid butt, he's a stupid little bitch, is
what he is, dog.
Yeah, he was grooming some somelittle native girl or whatever
yeah, dude.
And you know what's the worstpart is that they let him he's a
he's uh he's a well what is uhKendrick Kendrick say he's a 69
guy.
Oh, he's a freaky, yeah, freakyass nigga.
He's a 69 god, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (18:56):
But the worst part is that they let him continue to
play the character.

SPEAKER_03 (18:59):
Yeah, well, I mean, that was that was all that was
what was happening when he wasdoing the movie.

SPEAKER_01 (19:04):
That's all yeah, you know, my brother was telling me
about that, yeah, dude.
And that's messed up.

SPEAKER_03 (19:09):
And don't get me wrong, that movie was really
good and everything.
It's I don't know.
It's just for me, and you know,I'm uh I'm gonna watch the movie
again, but it just no, no,Superman.
The Superman movie.
It just kind of throws you intoa whole bunch of stuff that
without explanation, you're justlike, oh yeah, fucking Lex
Luther is just like the king ofthe world or whatever.

(19:30):
I get I get that they made himtry to they try to make him look
like it was a parody of likeTrump.
I get that whole thing, butyeah, you're supposed to just
swallow that he just made apocket universe.
Exactly.
It's like okay, what the fuckare all these portals about?
Where the fuck are they going?
Yeah, dude, it's just a weirdmovie.
It's just I mean, I get it.

(19:50):
I get it because it it was aboutjust like trying to make a movie
to sell to get the kids inthere.
They're oh, they're seeingSuperman.
Awesome.
It's another Superman movie,just like the one with uh
Brandon Roth.
Same shit.
Don't get me wrong, that moviestill was way better than this
other movie.
It really was, dude.
I don't get this whole robotsthing, man.

(20:12):
So if you're gonna make robotsthat are helping out Superman,
how the fuck are they not gonnabe like top?
I'm because even the the therobots on the on on board of the
ship uh on uh Man of Steel werelike badass, motherfucker.
You know what I'm saying?
I didn't like it, dude.
You just watch the movie becausethere's this thing, there's this

(20:33):
part where Lex Luther just walksin, bro.
Just walked into the Fortress ofSolitude, like you're supposed
to just accept that thathappened.
Like who's Lex Luther?
What the fuck?
Watch the movie, bro.
No, I'm not gonna, we're notgonna go into this because if
you're asking that movie, thenthat part then is he the bad
guy?

SPEAKER_02 (20:51):
He's yeah, he's a bad guy.

SPEAKER_03 (20:56):
Lex Luther is uh is to bat is to Superman with the
Joker is to Batman.

SPEAKER_01 (21:03):
So he's a kryptonite to his Yeah.
You know, I don't you don't youyou don't think that they're
just doing it for the nextgeneration?

SPEAKER_03 (21:10):
This whole thing of course they're doing it for the
next generation.
I get that.
It still just was a really badmovie.
It was a bad movie.
I hate to say that because Idon't really think it was a bad
movie because I I don't like tosay that about Superman.
Because if you really thinkthat's a bad movie, then what's
the one thing that really gotyou though?

SPEAKER_01 (21:30):

And and all that time fuckingdealing with with like people
with guns and all that shit,he's not gonna get he's not
gonna get got at one point oranother.

SPEAKER_01 (21:56):
But then he would have to have a kid if he gets
got and then that kid would haveto take over if they want to
continue to continue the story,man.

SPEAKER_03 (22:03):
That's why I don't understand where people are
like, oh, Batman's better thanSuperman.
No.
I mean, in reality, dude, youcan't really make a Superman
movie.
And I get where they were comingfrom.
It's like, come on, dude, ifSuperman was that that powerful,
I mean, this movie would only belike five minutes.
Yeah, dude.

SPEAKER_01 (22:19):
I I don't get that, dude.
Like, how is Superman thatpowerful?
But against Batman, it takes awhole movie to kill him.
It doesn't make sense, dude.
I I don't and I don't like I'mnot really a big fan of DC and
all that, but I don't reallylike Batman just for the simple
fact that he doesn't.

SPEAKER_03 (22:32):
Believe me, that that movie too had its own
quirks, but a little bit morebelievable than the shit that
was happening here, dude.
You're just like every everyscene is like, what the fuck is
happening?
And you don't get an explanationabout that scene till like 10
minutes later.
Oh yeah, that shit happenedbecause this like what?

(22:53):
Oh yeah, that shit happened fiveminutes, yeah, dude.
It's just weird, bro.

SPEAKER_01 (22:58):
Sounds like uh like that Rick and Morty episode we
were watching two months ago.

SPEAKER_03 (23:01):
Oh yeah, I mean, yeah, I don't know.
You know, like I said, it's I'mgonna watch it another time
because I'll admit I did get alittle too doged, and I fell
asle I fell asleep like the last30 minutes of the movie.
And and I can't remember the Mr.
Terrific character, the same guyfrom um from the rock movie.

SPEAKER_01 (23:22):
The rundown?

SPEAKER_03 (23:23):
The rock movie with uh the DC rock movie Black Adam.

SPEAKER_01 (23:27):
Black Adam, never seen it.
The one thing I don't like aboutBatman, and a lot of people you
know, they get kind of upset.
I don't think he's a realsuperhero Batman.

SPEAKER_03 (23:43):
You know, I mean he's a superhero, he fights
crime and he saves people,right?
But he's not a meta human likethe rest of the people on in uh
the DC University, if that'swhat you mean.
Which doesn't make sense to me,dude.
It doesn't make sense howsomeone like But yeah, he's
ultra rich, that's the thing.
That was but that doesn't makesense, bro.

(24:03):
That's like Jeff Bezos.
Exactly right.

SPEAKER_01 (24:05):
I mean, yeah, you know.

SPEAKER_03 (24:08):
But even still, that shit is all still more
believable than the shit thanall the premises of this last
movie.
And and I can't wait to see howthe rest of this movie goes.
And I might have missed a I'msure the the more crucial parts
of it were in the last 45minutes of this movie.
I might try to watch it againtonight, but yeah, man, I don't
I don't know if I have to watcha re-watch a movie to really

(24:29):
understand it and all thatstuff, I don't know.
I mean, I guess I'm gonna haveto pull up the comics and and
just figure that shit out too.

SPEAKER_01 (24:35):
So no, I'm not gonna lie, dude.
I don't think I've ever watcheda Superman movie.
I'm more of a Spider-Man type ofguy, but I haven't watched none
of the new uh Spider-Man movies.

SPEAKER_03 (24:44):
So you're a Marvel guy then, basically.
I mean if you're into X-Men, ifyou're not into X-Men, if you're
in if you're into uh Spider-Man,Wolverine movies, Deadpool
movies, all that shit.
That's Avengers, Iron Man,that's all that's all Marvel.
Hulk, Thor.
They're they they ran the themarket for the last 15, 20

(25:08):
years, bro.

SPEAKER_01 (25:09):
Oh yeah, no doubt they got the Fantastic Four.
They got a good list.

SPEAKER_03 (25:12):
I mean, they're cut they just came out with
Fantastic Four.

SPEAKER_01 (25:14):
Supposedly people were complaining about the
uniform.

SPEAKER_03 (25:18):
I mean, people were complaining about a Superman's
uniform too, so you know.

SPEAKER_01 (25:22):
Doesn't he have the same uniform forever?

SPEAKER_03 (25:24):
Who?
Superman?
Motherfucker No, no, the emblemis different this time around.
The last time the emblems oractually it was more square.
The emblem before the this timeand before the last time was
different, and uh the emblem inthe 50s was different than
they're all different emblems,dude.

(25:46):
Yeah, uh I'll send you a link ofthe generation of emblems.
Even in the comics, it's thesame thing.

SPEAKER_01 (25:51):
Didn't they do that of Batman's emblem?

SPEAKER_03 (25:53):
It's the same thing with all the all superheroes.
Well, those are the mainsuperheroes, but even with Bat
with uh Spider-Man, it was thesame thing.
Even with with Wolverine, with awhole bunch of those characters.

SPEAKER_01 (26:04):
What's that one Batman that's not Batman, but
he's Batman?
He's all uh in an all-blacksuit, but he's got a red Bat
symbol instead.
Yeah, that one I haven't heardof.

SPEAKER_03 (26:13):
You've never seen it?
He's he used to be a cartooncharacter.
It's Batman.
Oh, you're talking about like uhBatman with the futuristic
Batman.
Like, I don't know if he's afuturistic, but it was Batman
22, 26 or something like that.

SPEAKER_01 (26:24):
I don't know.
All I know is that he was allblack and he has a futuristic
Batman.
Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_03 (26:29):
Yeah, it was a futuristic Batman.
He was like, yeah, like 200years or 2,000 years in the
future.
That's a long ass time.

SPEAKER_01 (26:38):
I think it was him in the future because uh when I
was watching the show, the carsseemed like they were flying.

SPEAKER_03 (26:42):
Yeah, yeah.
Okay.

SPEAKER_01 (26:43):
Yeah, see, I like him better.
He's cool.

SPEAKER_03 (26:45):
Yeah, I don't, I don't, I never got into that
one.
Yeah, I was like, even theanimated series too is way it it
it keeps the same storylines asmost the all most all the the
other Batman series, but it'sdifferent.
It's its own, it's not even itsown comic.
Like the c the cartoon startedfirst, and then later after the

(27:08):
comic got can the cartoon gotcancelled, they they started
coming out with comics of theanimated series.
Which they just called Batmanthe animated series, they just
kept it as that.

SPEAKER_01 (27:18):
There's uh there's a lot of animated series.

SPEAKER_03 (27:23):
Which honestly, I think that's what uh that's what
they got they got Spider-Mananimated series, they got
Superman's animated series, no,yeah, I mean yeah, but I mean
even each one of those aredifferent comics, dude.
I mean look at the whole uh whatif series.
Have you heard of the what ifseries?
No, I haven't.
What if series for Marvel isjust that what if?

(27:44):
It's the Marvel is called thecomics called What If.
Like what if What if and azombie epidemic happened and all
our superheroes turned intozombies?

SPEAKER_01 (27:54):
That would suck.

SPEAKER_03 (27:55):
Yeah.
What if you'd eventually at somepoint they're gonna make a
Marvel versus DC comic DC moviebecause there's been a comic,
there's been a few comics whereMarvel and DC clash.

SPEAKER_01 (28:11):
I think I've seen those.

SPEAKER_03 (28:12):
There was a what there was, I think, a what if
like kind of series where it waslike I think it was uh
Spider-Man versus Superman,which was kind of ridiculous.
Anybody against Superman was wasI mean it would have been better
if it was like I I don't evenknow.
Uh uh the guy with uh with thejewel in the Avengers.

(28:33):
Ultra no, not Ultron, but um theguy with the jewel in the in the
Avengers, he was in the firsttwo Avengers or whatever.
He yeah, well the ScarletWitch's boyfriend.
He would have been uh more of acomparable or even no, yeah, he
would have been more of acomparable opponent opponent to
Superman.

(28:53):
But they also had like Wolverineversus Fuck who the fuck was it?
Lobo, Wolverine versus Lobo.
Logo Lobo, who's Lobo?
You have to look at it.
We'll waste a lot of time here,buddy.
We're at 40 minutes already, soI don't know if you want me to
go into that.
I'll I'll I'll give you thehistory of Lobo.

SPEAKER_01 (29:13):
No, no, no, we don't no.

SPEAKER_03 (29:15):
But I don't want you cutting me off like no no I
don't want uh it's okay.

SPEAKER_01 (29:19):
No, but uh you know I did I did hear a theory that
the reason that Superman wearsglasses is because without him
he sees X-ray vision.
I don't know.
I don't I mean he sees X-rayvision with him one way or the
other.

SPEAKER_03 (29:30):
Really?
Well it's it's a thing.

SPEAKER_01 (29:32):
Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_03 (29:32):
Okay, it's like it's like the laser beams coming out
of his eyes too.
It's it's he you have to turn iton.
It's not like it's all the time.

SPEAKER_01 (29:42):
Because I I thought those glasses were like
specially made for him to notlike accidentally shoot somebody
with his laser eyes oraccidentally.

SPEAKER_03 (29:49):
No, you know what I mean?
Because there's this one.
Yeah, I mean, I'm sure at firstthat's probably what was going
on, but no, no, I'm sure.
It it like I said, every comicis different, there's R1.
Where, yeah, that's the case.
There's others where he was ableto control it.
It just depends on what comicyou're reading.
Whatever comic, really.

SPEAKER_01 (30:08):
How much do you think comics go for nowadays,
dude?

SPEAKER_03 (30:10):
Like five bucks.

SPEAKER_01 (30:11):
Really?
Yeah.
I would think they're more likevaluable since they're close.
You don't see too many comicstores, do you?

SPEAKER_03 (30:17):
Okay, so you're talking about like a comic
that's like a like a just comingout for like next week's edition
or whatever.
Yeah, five bucks, like a brandnew one.
Yeah.
I mean, that's what you'reasking is just depending on what
comic, depending on what year,depending on a whole bunch of
things, bro.
That's true, that's true.
Yeah, you're right.
Yeah, I mean, that's just uhyeah, because I think that's a
that's like a uh like a wholedifferent podcast on its own,

(30:39):
buddy.

SPEAKER_01 (30:40):
Yeah.
I I uh I was thinking aboutgetting at least one comic book
of Spider-Man.
I feel like I need to have atleast one comic book of uh
Spider-Man.

SPEAKER_03 (30:48):
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, you have to be willingto drop some money and make and
do your hit your research andknow what it is you're buying in
order to do that.
True.
But I mean my son bought me one.

SPEAKER_01 (31:00):
Really?

SPEAKER_03 (31:01):
Yeah, he he bought me uh he bought me an edition.
He's holding on to it for meright now.

SPEAKER_01 (31:06):
Superman edition?

SPEAKER_03 (31:07):
No, it was Spider-Man.

SPEAKER_01 (31:08):
Oh, Spider-Man.

SPEAKER_03 (31:09):
Yeah, but it was a two-parter and it's in the film
and it's still in goodcondition.
He bought it for like I thinksix, seven bucks or whatever,
and I think it's worth liketwenty right now.
So not too shabby, though.
Yeah, so it's you know, it butit's one of those like it's one
of those ones that's like nobodywants.

(31:30):
It's in it was in massiveproduction, but I'm sure if you
hold on to it long enough, it'sgonna be worth some money.
Especially if it's in goodcondition because nobody wants
it.

SPEAKER_01 (31:39):
And that's one thing for sure is uh keeping things in
good condition.

SPEAKER_03 (31:42):
Because it's just like a a two-parter on uh like
the history of Spider-Man andthe best of and all that stuff,
and yeah.
But it hasn't I barely openedit, took it out to uh just check
it out a little bit and I putthem back in.

SPEAKER_03 (35:01):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (35:03):
I hope so.

SPEAKER_03 (35:04):
Whether it's viewers or money, bro, it doesn't
matter.
I have a feeling it's gonna beboth.
More than more than that,really, but you know.

SPEAKER_01 (35:11):
I hope so.

SPEAKER_03 (35:12):
I don't mean to gloat.

SPEAKER_01 (35:14):
No, definitely not.
But I mean when you work hardfor something and you put in
that work, it's it's always niceto be rewarded.

SPEAKER_00 (35:19):
Gip yup.

SPEAKER_01 (35:20):
You know, it's always nice to be appreciated,
it's always nice to be rewarded.

SPEAKER_00 (35:24):
It's all about the attitude, man.
It's all about the attitude youput out.

SPEAKER_01 (35:27):
Yeah, definitely that.
It's hard to keep a goodattitude, I'll tell you what.
But it definitely helps if youdo keep a good attitude.

SPEAKER_02 (35:34):
It's hard to repent, period, dog.

SPEAKER_01 (35:35):

You know, gator don't play thatshit.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 (35:40):
Hand me that that thing over there, that business
over there.
Thank you.

SPEAKER_03 (35:44):
But yeah, here we take care of business, we make
sure everything's good, and spinon so in this podcast journey.
Anything you uh notice, anythingyou have uh experienced, did you
want to maybe let these peopleknow if they're interested in

(36:06):
starting a podcast or anythinglike that?

SPEAKER_01 (36:08):
I do want to say it gets a little bit easier to be
on the mic and um and to findcontent because I know sometimes
people will people will come tothe mic and be like, oh my god,
we need content, we need this,we need and it's good to have a
a setup of all right, what arewe gonna talk about?
But sometimes it feels like it'sa little bit it's a little bit
more fun when you just kind ofgo wing it.

(36:29):
Wing it.
Yeah, you know, you you youstart talking about things that
you wouldn't necessarilyprobably thought about if you
were coming to the table alreadyadjusted to all right, this is
what we're talking.
I feel like that doesn't giveyou free free wiggle room to
talk about other stuff that thatmight come up.
You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_00 (36:44):
Right.

SPEAKER_01 (36:45):
So I I feel like it's up to the person, whatever
they're which way they're going,if they want to keep it simple,
whatever they're talking about,and all this.
Right, if they want to keep itsimple and whatever, like dude,
it's you could do informational,you could do funny, you could do
all types of things, and that'sthe beauty of it.
Right, right.
You know, and like we said here,it gets you away from that nine
to five grind, it gets you off.

SPEAKER_03 (37:04):
We're just creating right, really.
It's and which is really thebasis of this whole thing, what
what got this whole thingstarted, the foundation of this
thing was to create content,right?

SPEAKER_01 (37:14):
Yeah, so and and I would just say that.
I would just say it does get alittle bit easier.
The mic right, right, as we asyou come to the table.
But the most I feel like thedifficult, tedious part are the
thumbnails, the computer words.
The tedious part?
Yeah, the tedious parts to meare the are the computer words.

SPEAKER_03 (37:31):
Yeah, the thumbnails, the well, I mean
that's where we were talkingabout uh I think we touched up
on that earlier, right?
Was the co-host AI thing?
Yeah, the co-host that's what wewere talking about, like the
first five minutes of the show,if I remember correctly, right?
It's cool how that kind of comesfull circle.
See, there's a good idea for ashow, and you start off with the
topic, might not have to talkabout it the whole way around,
just touch up on it and maybefollow it go into something

(37:52):
else.
But you just remember, whateveryou just always come up with
with an idea for a topic, justso you have an idea.
Uh, if you don't have likeco-host AI and you're you're
typing in your own descriptionsof the show, putting in that
work, you know that you canalways start off with touch up
on a subject for like the firstfive minutes of the show, maybe

(38:12):
dive delve into like some otherstuff, some current events
stuff, and then just come backto it like we just did right now
because this was a full circlething.
Yeah, definitely.
We we were talking about allthat, and here we are just
talking about it again.

SPEAKER_01 (38:23):
Yeah, no, definitely.
And I would also say don't don'tbe so tight, you know?
Just loosen up, loosen up,right?
Yeah, right are you doing ityourself or where you're doing
it with somebody else, just havea good time, man.
Yeah, right.
You know, try not to stress it,try not to come to the table and
be like everything has to beperfect.
We are like we always say, rawand uncut, so sometimes we mess
up.
We have tackle difficulties, wehave technical difficulties,

(38:44):
technical difficulties, andthere might be days where you're
not feeling it, or you'recoming, or you're feeling like
you're gonna come to the tablewith nothing, but you'll
surprise yourself, you'll besurprised that you know.

SPEAKER_03 (38:52):
I and there will be times too where like shit just
gets you hit a dead, you hit adead wall, you hit a uh a wall,
or just things just kind of goup and get played out a little
bit differently than we'reexpected.
And or the homie gets a you haveto you have to cut the the
episode short, or the homie getsa booty call, you know.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,you know, you said that I

(39:13):
didn't.
I'm just saying.
Emergency.
Everybody gets one.
Everybody gets one.
Tell him, Peter.
Tell him, Peter.

SPEAKER_01 (39:19):
So and and also I think, like I said, depending if
you're doing it by yourself orif you're doing it with
somebody, I feel like if you'redoing it with somebody to come
to a nice agreement, notpressuring each other, but like
to come, hey, this is how welike to come to an agreement.
What do you feel like doing?
What do you feel like talkingabout?
To play off each other's uh, youknow, and uh definitely set a
time of day.

SPEAKER_03 (39:38):
If you're gonna have a co-host, it's definitely good
to have somebody like whateverit is you're trying to put
across, it's definitely good tohave people that fit that bill.
I mean, our whole thing was likewe were already hanging out.
We we just recently met and uhwe've been hanging out for like
about two months, three monthsbefore we decided to do a
podcast, two, three, fourmonths, and uh five months or

(39:59):
something like that.
And and we like at some pointwe're sitting here doing our
thing after work or duringlunch.
We just decided, hey, we're justwhen let's just fucking do a
podcast and see what happens.

SPEAKER_01 (40:09):
So and uh big shout out to you for you know watching
the videos and taking the I meanI know you come from a
background of take of um radioand everything, yeah.
So it was a little easier to geteverything settled and down and
and and it really Yeah, I mean Ialready had an idea of how to
get set up and all that stuff,yeah.
Right, and it really isdiscouraging, you know what I
mean?
If you're new to a pot or if youwant to start one and you just

(40:30):
don't know where to start andwhat kind of equipment you'll
need.
I mean, dude, we started offwith what, like a fifty dollar
equipment mic, fifty dollar micand a little boombox.

SPEAKER_03 (40:39):
Actually, I thought it was from Timu, but I guess it
was from uh I guess it was fromWalmart that we got this thing
from.

SPEAKER_01 (40:44):
Just just try, dude.
Just make some things up, justhave fun with it.

SPEAKER_03 (40:47):
And you can more than anything, have fun.
I mean, because if you're notgonna have fun with it, dude,
then there's no right.

SPEAKER_01 (40:52):
You don't want it to don't waste your money.
You don't want it to startfeeling like a boy.
Yeah, yeah.
You want it to start feelinglike a like a job, or you don't
want it to start feeling likeit's gonna it's gonna be rough
at the beginning.
Oh, yeah, it's gonna be so much.

SPEAKER_03 (41:01):
And believe me, especially where when you when
you see your views at first, youknow, it is one of those things
that you kind of have to push,you have to push through it.
I mean, well, we started withlike two or three.
I mean, because that there wassomething we we told ourselves,
like we're gonna do this, weneed to be real, we need to be
realistic and realize that likewe both don't really have any
sort of social, any sort ofonline presence.

(41:23):
I know I don't.

SPEAKER_01 (41:24):
I don't, I'm not really an online guy, right?

SPEAKER_03 (41:26):
Right, exactly.
And so we don't have any sort ofonline friends or anything, any
sort of network.
So we're just kind of throwingourselves out there and we're
just going through the motionsof going through this in, I
guess, the career sense, youknow, where it's like, okay, now
you got a podcast, now these arethe steps to make it more
successful, and that's whatwe're trying to bring to you

(41:47):
guys is is our steps of whatwe're doing and our experience,
exactly right, exactly right.
Like I said, we are planning onhaving a co-host at some point.
We're still trying to work thosedetails out because she's in
Colorado, so she's a homehomegirl from way back in the
day.
Awesome person, she's anentertainer as well.
She likes to do a whole bunch ofyou know, she's she's done like

(42:10):
uh commercials and all thatother stuff.
We went through radio and TVtogether.
So we've she's done stage workand uh stage acting and all that
stuff too.
So definitely just something I'mlooking forward to.
Uh, we might bring uh we mightlike bring her in slowly but
surely, like maybe with somephone calls here and there.
So bear with us through thatstuff.

(42:31):
Like uh that's another thing wewant to uh kind of uh put keep
putting out there is that thisis D8 Studios, a D A Y studio.
At what?
At uh 8A Studios.
Yep, yep.
So yeah, yeah, right.
And we are above a bar, so ifyou guys hear chatter and all
that stuff in the background,that's what it is.

(42:52):
We try to make things sound alittle bit better in the editing
and all that stuff.
But you know, just bear with usas slowly but surely, as I'm
sure if you've been listeningfrom the get-go from the
beginning, hoping that younotice that there's a difference
in production and quality andit's gonna be getting better and
better.
But definitely can't stressenough.
If you're gonna do a podcast,find a place that's pretty

(43:15):
quiet, yeah, pretty fairly um,not too much noise going on.
Right, right.
But it all depends too.
I mean, if you want that soundtoo, some people take it on the
road.

SPEAKER_01 (43:24):
Exactly.
I mean, we do have something uhcoming up speaking about the
road, but we don't want to gettoo uh right, right, right.

SPEAKER_03 (43:29):
That'll be coming up actually here before the end of
the week for sure in the nextepisode or so or even before
this one, who knows?

SPEAKER_01 (43:35):
And it's crazy, Max, because we do have a lot of
content that we still haven'teven gone through.
Right, right.
And and that's one thing I wantto tell people is you know, if
you're gonna if you're gonna payfor something, make sure you
pace yourself and make sure youknow.

SPEAKER_03 (43:46):
And so this is where we're gonna start kind of going
on to the Patreon if we can.
If not, we might start puttingsome of this stuff up on the on
the BuzzCast, which is part of aBuzz Sprout.
It's almost it's it's exact samething as uh Patreon, but they
kind of help you out a littlebit more where you're throwing
out your regular free content,and then you can maybe throw on

(44:07):
some paywall content up theretoo.
Um, which is you know, for us,it this will be our first this
uh sub challenge will be ourfirst video where you get to uh
put uh I really want to get tothat voice to uh faces.

SPEAKER_01 (44:21):
So uh little bit nervous about that one.
You know, I'm not really big onthe show.

SPEAKER_03 (44:24):
Yeah, I think we did a good job though.
Honestly, I and we'll have timeto improve.
I honestly I believe that likethe one we watched two, three
years from now, uh in inprogress from like the you know,
the one we did three yearstoday, yeah, it's gonna be a big
difference.
I believe that for sure.
I I uh I believe that this is acool thing that we both are

(44:46):
benefiting from.
It's both helping us out in thesense that it's helping us grow
grow a little bit better and getout of our comfort zone.
Yeah, get out of our comfortzones and step up and be a
little bit more open-minded andget over some bullshit.
Definitely.

SPEAKER_01 (44:58):
It definitely and that definitely helps if um you
have you know, like I said, andmost people do it by themselves,
it it still keeps youdistracted.
Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 (45:04):
And you know, we still might do stuff on our own.
I I like I said, I got I'mplanning on doing some review
stuff.
I got uh that auto face uh thatauto tracking face tripod or
whatever that I might be doingsome unboxing and reviewing on,
so that might be a part of thiswhole channel too.
And I and I it might not be apart of the same podcast, right?
I don't know yet.
I haven't decided yet.

SPEAKER_01 (45:25):
I hear you.
Oh, definitely.
You know, I haven't.

SPEAKER_03 (45:28):
I don't know if you want to help me out with that or
whatever's clever, you know.

SPEAKER_01 (45:31):
I'm always going to be able to do that.

SPEAKER_03 (45:34):
No, I don't the shakedown name or whatever.

SPEAKER_01 (45:36):
I don't mind at all.
You know how it is here.

SPEAKER_03 (45:38):
Way to get us some some viewers and all that stuff.
Maybe maybe that'll um encourageyou to come out here and do some
stuff other than radio orpodcast co-hosting and maybe do
some voiceover work and all thatother stuff.

SPEAKER_01 (45:53):
You know, God willing, and hopefully, you
know, hopefully we see if Godlets us keep continuing doing
what we do.
