I need segments for DFBT
« on: April 16, 2013, 08:26:37 am »

Can anyone suggest good segments for DFBT, my podcast? The thread is here, and the Spreaker page link is in my sig. The next episode will sound better, I promise, it's just that that was a quick test of the software.

So, what should I add?

Bring in some kind of "thread of the day" or read someone's story from the story's board. I figure you can find hours of literature to be read there. You could "weather forecast" succession fortresses, show off mods or teach someone how to mod their giant eagles to be trained for war. Talk about the last crazy trade you had with the elves. Maybe even visit older megaprojects.

You do not understand the ways of Toady One. He is not a business, he's just a guy trying to make a fun game. He's invited people to come along and experience the journey with him (and help him test it out as he goes along). At the end of the day, I don't think his main goal is to sell Dwarf Fortress, its just to create the best game possible.

Personally, I'd listen to any of those ideas on your podcast.

Yeah, handpick things from the forums, people post tons of stories and problems every day. Also, as said in your original podcast thread, do tip segments, both for new and advanced players.

"You can designate a dump over magma to get rid of unwanted junk!" and the like.

Additionally, you need a co-host(s) to talk and comment and give their oppinions about everything. A podcast should not be just things you rattle off like the news.

I already have one, he's going to be in the next episode.
