Escape From Noise

For when someone I'm talking to starts bringing up the podcast they're doing with their friends.

Immediately searching for the nearest windows and trying to ascertain whether I could fit through them in a cannonball shape.

Contingency plan #15869 — Me And My Friends Are Podcasters

• Take a deep breath
• Say "Wow that's amazing, I have so many good ideas—"
• Continue generating new terrible ideas for podcast episodes (See also: "Contingency Plan #11-Beta Addendum 2 — "Bad idea generator") until the person starts trying to leave.

Too much is always not enough!

(Thanks to tvsveryown for the spring sig!)

Ask if the know the macelroys, then ask what their podcast is about, and then say "oh like that one the maceleroys did"

Quickly explain that your mattress, kitchenware, wardrobe, and cleaning supplies are almost entirely made up of goods bought from affiliate links, you're already subscribed to 4 meal subscriptions, a razor subscription, a hair care subscription, a coffee subscription, an olive oil subscription, and a wine subscription, and on top of that you're already a lord through 5 different Scottish land plot purchases so you couldn't possibly do anything to support their podcast. Sorry!

Start singing songs that will get big companies to make copyright claims on their podcast in the hopes that it gets stuck in their heads and they end up penniless from the lawsuits

Coming up with a detailed story of how I lost my entire family during a family vacation and how because of that listening to content about family vacations is extremely triggering to me.

Oh cool, is it like Conan Obrien needs a friend? That's a really funny podcast, I listen to it all the time. Have you heard it? It's really good. Such great chemistry. The long form talks with the guests are great, it's really great. He interviewed Obama and Biden, Michelle Obama, and those are really good but also random comedians that you might not have heard of, it's really cool to hear their stories. It's a great insight into the work that goes in to making good comedy. It's introduced me to so many interesting people and always makes me laugh. The needs a fan ones are also fun sometimes, but I usually skip them. Matt Gorely is kind of a weiner but is kind of endearing, and Sona is hilarious. Such good banter. Do you guys do banter? I bet it isn't as good as Conan Obrien. You should listen to that podcast. Couldn't hurt, is all I'm saying. Not that you should expect to be that good right off the bat, I'm sure you'll get there if you put in the work, but like you should listen to Conan Obrien's podcast. It's called Conan Obrien needs a friend. Oh sorry did I say that already? Yeah I love that podcast. You should do a podcast! You'd probably be pretty good at it. Not as good as Conan but hey we can't all be funny.

Ask them a question about the podcast, but interrupt them with "What?" as soon as they start answering you.
Repeat.

Tell them there's a gajillion podcasts out there and that only a very small percentage are actually tolerable. The rest are just ordinary people with ordinary opinions and they're never going to get big.

This is a funny idea, someone should do a podcast about it.

Steering the focus of their podcasts to be about each other's podcasts, like an ant death circle.

Is it cool to hate an entire people's culture now? I hope so because I hate podcast people

Maybe I'd hate them less with an Audible subscription?
