I had a podcast back in the day and had Pelini call my cohost I did it with and leave him a nasty voicemail for not going through university channels cause we had players on haha.

Also interviewed Anderson before he got canned and Osborne.
 
This is inevitable but until a preferred alternative exists, podcast is the go-to for long-form discussion.
Podcasts are still evolving though. Content creators can see how trends are going, so they adapted.

I've seen a few do smaller versions of breakdowns, and then longer, live interacting shows.
So have multiple channels to do different types of podcasts, including one with smaller shows and then others with longer versions.
Then I've seen one, The Ringer, do sports (NFL and NBA specifically) and then movies/shows. And instead of just one different podcast, they do multiple podcasts with different names. But it's all the same people for the most part.

But in general, you adapt to the audience. But you have to get to the point to have an audience. And it comes down to market research. Will a tPB podcast generate enough consistent listeners/followers? And if not, how can you bring more in?

Like I said, I hate the idea of a podcast because you can have answers to every important question on starting one up, but in the end, you need to have a lot of luck to get anything going.
 
Fuck it, I'm just going to keep going.

I think most here agree that Chaz in SoCal is weird and creepy. But his idea tweet the other day was a good one. And I'll explain.

You have several podcasts out there that will talk anything and everything about Husker Football, CFB, or whatever. But I haven't heard many that will tell the stories from Husker fans throughout the years of our program. Unfortunately, Husker fans live in the past, so any time you retell the stories for others to listen to, they'll listen.

Memorial Stadium getting torn down and upgraded? Sweet, break the news for a few minutes and then bring in Husker fan stories about their tales in the stadium.

Rhule and company bringing the fullback into the offense? Sweet, talk about it for a few minutes and then have a few stories from Husker fans about their experiences watching some of the all-time fullback players or plays.
 
It was mentioned in another thread but I figured I would gauge everyone’s interest. If we did a tPB podcast would you:

1. Listen to it?

2. Would you be interested in contributing? Honestly any member could contribute something to the podcast and I think it would be entertaining. Some random names off the top of my head @slattimer @alt f4 @kenyanfeline @Faux Sean Callahan @Jim14510 @HuskerDocCo @Jim14510 @That SOB Van Owen @Dell Husker @vailhusker @Lionsfan93 @BorWhiskey @MtnHusker @RedSeaRising @Alum-Ni @Krup21 @Black Dean
@…TrueColors…

Let me know if you are interested or if you’d like to hear from anyone else.
I know @...TrueColors... and myself have talked in the past about doing this... Just have never made that step.

I thought the gambling part would be good. It seems like draftkings sponsors ever podcast.

I also thought my bookreport opponent preview would be a good podcast segment.

I agree with your analysis. I think you’re spot-on regarding reach and long-term success.

I just think it might be something fun to do for the board and maybe provide some additional value to members.

TPB has some built-in advantages over others who cover/discuss Nebraska football. Besides the insidhers we have here, there isn’t anyone we’re beholden to other than ourselves/Garrett. That means we can largely do/be whatever we want.

I think some of those things could be leveraged into a pretty unique offering.
 
If you create one. I have a non football related question on if you give our advice. Should I give my neighbor a handy or something? Feel bad for the dude.
Moved from Cali to Oklahoma with his wife so she could stay at home.
Works for the federal prison system
Wife left him for her STEP BROTHER. But it’s ok cuz she never knew him growing up
Bought a truck and went thru a mid life crisis
Got a GF
GF dumped him after a year
Couldn’t afford his nice new truck anymore
Bought a Honda prelude
 
I'm N 👀

Just tell me when and where (and then we'll reschedule 2-3 times but eventually record it lol)

Okay, I may regret this but here it goes.

Grew up a diehard Nebraska fan of all sports but was a chithead when I was younger and didn't play school very well.

Went to KSU for the home state discount and majored in communications . I love all sports period and I have experience with radio (called KSU baseball games on the school radio and girls basketball games). If you guys did this, I would love to contribute in some way.


Thanks,

You’re N! Let’s do it
 
So I hate the idea of a podcast. Not because it’s a bad idea, but it’s a good idea oversaturated by everyone at one point.

Go on YouTube and search Husker podcasts. You find some good ones, but a lot with a low amount of views. But even Inside Nebraska Rivals and Husker Online have low amounts of views compared to other big names. Corn Crazed is another one, and he does alright.

But what I’m trying to get at, starting a podcast now is playing catch up. You need good recording software, an auto tuner, a hosting service (YT, Spotify, etc), and a good following base.
I don’t get the people that “listen” to podcasts on YouTube…..but that’s just me. That’s a small sample-size when talking about an audio format.

Then….”radio” has been around longer than any other medium, and until it’s beamed into our brains…..podcasts are where it’s at? Haha.

I agree that it’s a crowded market, but there’s a built-in fanbase with tPB….and I have no doubt they’d bring a unique flavor to the Husker podcast market (and it’s not like there are any good ones in that category right now).
