I was not actually aware we had a podcast. Neat.

Insert witty and clever quip here. My page, as the database hates my handle.

Yup. Should be up regularly on Sundays. We got a late launch this first week.

Half a man, too, judging by the picture.[lol]

^^The other halves are present in another dimension, obviously. This being a necessity for those having more than two halves. Getting the camera to capture all the dimensions can be difficult.

[up] The World May Never Know

That or they could be on the forums and interact with us.

I have a feeling this podcast might hold me over in Troping-Crossmedia exposure until Echo Chamber season 3.

I wonder if there's a way to download it, for listening on the go.

All the usual methods. There are links on the wiki's page to Podomatic and (I think) iTunes. Both allow downloads. Or you could just click this: http://onthetropes.podomatic.com/enclosure/2013-06-02T20_48_58-07_00.mp3

'ello 'ello everyone. Thanks for checking us out, we're having a blast with this already.

We really want this to be a podcast that's highly listener-driven, so if you have suggestions for future tropes that we'd be amiss if we didn't cover, game ideas, or whatever else, let us know.

I'd like you guys to try out the Meta Guy sometime. That would be interesting.

Will it be possible for tropers to guest on the show at some point?

[up] some way, some how. We've been tinkering with Skype and trying to figure out the best way to record with it for interviews and some more interaction

What would having a troper on the show entail? What would they be there for?

Hey everyone,

I've been reading this site for years and didn't realize it was a community till the podcast. Very cool, happy to be here.

@Morgan Wick

It may be similar to traditional talk radio where we answer questions on the show. Possibly more targeted sometimes (contest winners, guests relevant to the episode, unlicensed arm-wrestling). We'll know more soon.

It's been far too long since we've updated this thread.

Anywho, for those keeping score, we're gonna record a couple episodes tomorrow with a guest cohost AJ. We're gonna review the awesome but underseen Snowpiercer (if it's not screening in your town, it can be rented online. For the episode after, we're gonna take an indepth look at the trope Title Drop, figure out what makes it work and when it might be better left unsaid.

If you've got thoughts on either of these, leave 'em here or track us down online at On The Tropes@gmail.com
