I used to think bigger podcasts were better because they covered more ground. That Anime Deep Dive moment changed my mind, it felt so dismissive to just call a topic "exhausted." Now I get why @michaelo49 looks for smaller spots, places where people actually let a conversation breathe. Why even have a deep dive show if you're not willing to go deep on the big stuff?

My barber said the motor in cheap clippers just can't handle thick hair.

Tried the joke thing once. Told a kid why the chicken crossed the road right before a shot. He laughed so hard he almost fell off the chair. Had to chase him around the room with a band-aid. My joke delivery is clearly a public health hazard. The cotton ball idea sounds way safer.
