Story: Man, this was a ride. I was super excited to do my very first panel and the behind-the-scenes for this was godlike. All of the panelists came together in a chat to suggest topics, discuss strategy, submit evidence, etc. They were all as hyped as I was and I think that shows in the performance. My main goal going into it was to have this be something that didn't get memed on as being awful- that the participants would speak fondly of. So many other panel shows are painful to endure, both for viewers and participants. If you're not there to plug a channel or an ideology, they're a waste of time imho. So, the plan with this one, was to make something that everyone had fun DOING- to make a panel that people enjoyed for what it is. I didn't want to use politics and real life issues as some sort of cash grab or entertainment. I think that we accomplished that and a lot of my fears about how the audience would handle the subject matter were unfounded. Super happy to look back on this one, honestly.
