The Thrilling Adventure Hour

June 8, 2015 8:30 PM

Are there many/any listeners to The Thrilling Adventure Hour podcast here? Would there be interest if I started posting TAH episodes on here? If so, should I start with recent episodes or from the beginning? Some of the recent episodes aren't exactly accessible to newcomers, and the show is probably going to be winding down soon, so I'm torn between starting with the most recent episodes; starting from the beginning; or doing a re-listen that follows a single sequential storyline (eg. Sparks Nevada).

Oh man, tough call! But I'd either start from the beginning or the sequential storylines as Beyond Belief is the best thing ever. (In my heart, my husband and I are Frank and Sadie Doyle, but without the money, the snappy outfits, and the psychic powers. We have the booze part down pat.)

Start from the beginning.

Hello?! This is why haven't made a TAH FPP!

I vote for one storyline at a time because there are over 200 episodes and it's going to be a slog and we'll lose momentum. Otherwise definitely from the beginning. How frequently were you thinking of posting?

I guess we can start with Sparks Nevada?

I am so, so up for this in whatever form.

I'm a fan of it - I've seen them live a few times - but I'm not sure about this.

Big fan. Particularly Beyond Belief. But if it's ending soon, it may be too late. (Dead Author's Podcast is another good one.)

Sadly, this Friday is the last regular DA show :(

(Roast of HG is August, and the very last show is Sept.)

Oh, my actual point is that I think either of these would still work just as, say, the Star Trek:TOS viewings work.

I have no idea what this means?

Anyway, I've posted the most recent Beyond Belief, and will keep up-to-date with the current episodes as they're released, and will be starting a Sparks Nevada re-listen on the "off" weeks.

It was just an aside to Glinn above, who mentioned the Dead Author podcast as a possibility. But yes, reading it now it's totally cryptic!
