Hearkening back to that episode when Dave and Joel hosted Geeknights, next year on April Fool's Day I've got a great idea. Why don't a bunch of people who make premiere podcasts (such as this one) switch places with each other. Dave and Joel could do Geeknights, and vice versa. Ninja Consultant could host Anime World Order, and vice versa. And so on and son. Hey the newspaper comics do that all the time, so why can't that same principle be applicable to podcasts?
Come on Scott, I meant an up to date view of Diamond Distribution, as we are heading to the end of another century, and since then other services like DCBS and Haven Distribution as alternatives. This is needed, especially after Diamond's recent cuts, price hikes and general assholery.

When you were mentioning shows about immortality, you totally shoulda mentioned Baccano! That show is different in that it shows characters who think that their eternal lives are awesome. There is very minimal Who Wants to Live Forever wangst.
Do a tuesday show on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise.
There's a flash video we need to find first. I've spent the better part of the last decade seeking it. Only when we have found it again can we do a show on TMNT. ^_~

How about a multi-part episode series on Phoenix? I think that series at least deserves one episode to be talked about as it is landmark in, not only Tezuka's career, but in the medium of manga as a whole.
Why not make a "Music" category in the forums as I've noticed most threads pertaining to music have "Everything Else" or something like that because of the lack of a Music category?

Tragically, those here that regularly discuss music are a small but vocal minority. While there are a few threads like the "metal" and "concerts" threads that get regular posts, they're few and far between.
Music fits best under the Art category, though I'll admit that Art is used most often for things related to the visual arts.
If one wanted to get pedantic about it, one could point out that the description for the Art! category is "Here is the place for artists to share their works."
Does anyone actually pay attention to the categories? I know I haven't since I first joined the board, and was looking through the archives.
Let's see....Casablanca, The Third Man, Citizen Kane, Paper Moon, The Maltese Falcon, and the list goes on. Seriously though, that is a very specific topic that is pretty much the same as the podcast: "Movies You Should See". But I'm just a punk kid who has a very tenuous grasp of the old movies I should see and I should have probably listed more, but what can I do?
There are so many great B&W movies that the podcast would just be a list. Every one of them deserves an episode, and then it's just Movies You Should See With Rym and Scott, which I'm not really interested in.
You know what, I never realized this until just now....there has never been an idea posted about a show on the FRC Forums...at all. I know we are a big part of the show and often provide many of the awesome shows we listen to...yet there has never been a centralized show about it at all. Think of what show like that could be like!? Scrym could talk about what makes their forums awesome from others (maybe comparing a few unnamed ones that are infamous for constant and never-ending shitcockery), some of the awesome forumites that add so much to the forums, memorable threads, trolls that have come and gone (from flamming geek to Jen), memorable flamewars, and the list goes on....YEESH! I don't think any thought or research is required for this show and it can be done in a heartbeat, but that all depends on the level of tiredness and hunger of Scrym.
