Customer Reviews
DCA episode
I can’t believe you had Ream on! Oh wait…. That’s me!! Had a lot of fun keep up the great work!
Check it out!
Be sure to check out this fantastic new podcast from Guard Closet!
Work in Progress
Avid podcast listener - couple of quick notes for y’all:
- work on that sound equalization. The mix isn’t mixed. Microphones are a work in progress, but when I have to crank the volume to listen to one section and frantically lower it in another isn’t great.
- who is speaking? Literally, we hear first names but no one is announced in full at the top of the show.
- the special guests aren’t also (consistently) fully named. If I want to follow them, I have no way to do so outside doing a deep dive. There’s no social or contact to follow/view their work/promote/etc…
- playing a game where people have to write down multiple items. Either cut the “prep” time, or ask the questions prior to recording. No one wants to listen to dead air - or worse, bad dead space banter.
- if you’re going to name drop someone NOT on the pod, include minor background info. Your audience won’t recognize every name mentioned, especially with such a broad cast from different fields/regions/etc.
- as a former guard member: WE ARE NOT CHEERLEADERS. Some of the panel very obviously have no idea how to talk to/treat guard. We’re a huge part of a band’s visual program and not being treated with respect kills a portion of potential audience.
- Kill the text a friend segment. See playing a game - we don’t want to hear the texting section. It adds run time to the full program and nothing else. Like, how do we know anyone is actually looking someone up?
- the entire structure of the show is weird. Why not have a wind/brass section, a guard section, a percussion section - keep the same group convo but focus it more… Or break it up differently - Music, Visual, Development, Show Design, etc… genuinely feels like I’m going all over the place. This will also help with pacing and ad breaks.
- your presenters do NOT seem to be giving any sort of heads up about content per episode. Are they not getting written questions ahead of time to come up with a specific, poignant answers (that can be edited if not great). Just seems like an easy miss.
- you don’t acknowledge anyone that has been on the episode. I don’t know how to contact them or follow them or anything. Again - easy miss.
I wanna like this and keep listening but it needs work. Reach out if you want help.
