The podcast we listened to in class was extremely interesting, the subject of lobotomy was something I had thought about or at least been aware of through the Jack Nicholson film, and the novel that it was adapted from, but that was more extreme I guess as it was to essentially kill or make brain-dead Nicholson’s character, so I felt pretty captivated by the subject, who was also the host, trying to piece together in this audio how the lobotomy had effected him, like assuming it led to that monotonous voice or something.
Maddy didn’t make it to class, but Ben and I fleshed out more of an understanding of what we are thinking of doing. After spending a while deliberating and thinking, viral videos, memes and the like, we ended up thinking that focusing around the concept of binge watching could be good, perhaps incorporating something Brian mentioned, which was to incorporate this such of the biggest binge watching, idolising this Bigfoot kind of style binge watcher, and this feels like something that will both allow for a degree of creativity. I guess then, also making it sound like a cool podcast-sounding succinct in style which will be fun.
We’ll see how Maddy feels about the idea.
