Podcasting Day: The Sincere Episode, with Jason Pargin! 🌭
Added 2021-11-17 13:00:07 +0000 UTC
Welcome to a Very Special Podcasting Day. Today we’re doing something crazy, something experimental, something strange and impossible that you never expected from us, and may never hear from us again:
Unbridled positivity!
This week we’re joined by relentless optimist Jason Pargin for an all-positive podcast with no twist. See, I just mentioned there’s no twist and already you’re on guard for traps and betrayals. I’ve trained you for that, that’s understandable, those instincts will save you in The Hot Dog Labyrinth, but there’s seriously no twist to this premise: Awesome shows we genuinely like that are buried on streaming platforms.
That’s it! It’s nothing revolutionary, there are surely countless podcasts with this exact premise, but it’s a nearly impossible task for us. You’ll be on the edge of your seat as we repeatedly dip into our natural state, mockery, then struggle to emotionally wrestle ourselves out of it. We’ll start getting goofy, we’ll start doing our jobs and being funny, and no! We’ll drag ourselves from the brink and remember: This is awesome. This is an episode about genuinely good things and the broken people who struggle to enjoy them.
I won’t tell you which shows we’re talking about, but I will tell you what their porn parodies would be.
That’s it! That was the joke. The better ones are in the podcast, which you can subscribe to here, or wherever they do that thing. Prove you’re a better person than us -- one capable of sincerely enjoying things -- by leaving us a review. That’ll show us!

30 Coins really is so much fun. I hope they do a second season, though frankly my sympathies were firmly with Mercedes over her hunky mayor husband by the end of the show.

2021-11-17 20:03:55 +0000 UTCI think an interesting premise would be an apocalypse show where like things are fine? Like it’s traumatic but society recovers and rebuilds just in the new context adapting to the new reality. That’s what See made me think of. It would be interesting because that’s what has happened in the past (see the Bronze Age collapse)

2021-11-17 18:35:35 +0000 UTCFor some reason, I kept hearing the show "See" and thinking "Sea" and I kept wondering when the boats were going to come in and thinking how cool it was someone was doing a Waterworld TV show but the blindness seemed like an uneeded spin.

2021-11-17 14:59:30 +0000 UTCI appreciate the attempt in the write up, but still expecting some kind of betrayal. Explicitly telling me there's no traps just means I'll expect more than usual amounts of them.

2021-11-17 14:32:57 +0000 UTCI know it’s the sort of question I shouldn’t ask… even trying to parse the concept caused a conspicuous adrenaline dump, but I’m kind of intrigued as to what a “Hotdog Labyrinth” entails… I already know I’ll regret asking, and I won’t even be surprised when I’m awoken by a “gentleman” in bondage gear during my sleep tonight. I’ll rise tomorrow morning unable to exorcise the lingering smell of hotdogs and sex-sweat… that and the dirt on the soles of my feet will be the only real reminders of my tangle with the Pork Minotaur. Either way, I’m gonna need regressive hypnosis again. Luckily, being an expert-level hotdogger, I’ve probably got a frequent customer bonus with the hypnotist at this point. Hot dog! 🌭. Anyway, yes, some unbridled positivity sounds great, so podcast me up daddy-o.
