Thoughts? Any you think that need cut? Any that need retooled or rebooted? Any glaring omissions?
I think Huber Syndrome is just not working all that well. It should be retooled into a Huber-and-a-guest casual talk show. We've seen it with him talking to all the allies, and that was easily the best the show has been.
Tabletop Escapades, in my opinion, desperately needs to wrap up whatever storyline they're on and reboot it. It's by far the least newcomer-friendly show they do. If it's going to be a weekly show, they need to change it up every month or two, not let it go on for years.
Right now Trailer Jones feels unimportant because of its infrequency. It's like, oh, let's watch the guys review a trailer from a week ago, or two weeks ago, or three weeks ago, that I've already seen a dozen times and have now lost interest in. I don't have a problem with the show's concept, but I don't think monthly is really a good format for it. Also, I don't think Trailer Jones is a good name. I get that that's his Twitter handle, but what does Trailer Jones mean? Let's All Go To The Trailers was a title that made sense. You understood what that show was without even watching it.
I really wish Frame Trap was weekly. I think they could justify the twice monthly when there were four panelists on the podcast (including Ben), but now that there's three, we just aren't getting enough long-form impressions from enough of the allies.
Reaction Shots, I don't know. I mean, I guess it's basic enough (usually with just a couple of panelists) and infrequent enough that it doesn't really matter, but it's the least viewed EZA podcast by a large margin. Averages around 6k views per episode. I rarely ever watch it, so I don't have much input.
I think the biggest omission is a casual talk show. The Easy Update episodes between two allies and the Huber Syndrome episodes between two allies tend to be higher viewed than some of the more traditional episodes, and they're definitely the best episodes, IMO.
Also, really need more short form content that actually comes out regularly.
