Pod Save 4.0 Ep. 10 - Around the Horn Edition (CLOSED) (428 views)

[TimPig]

Hey guys,

Another idea FectaDEEZ and I want to try for the next edition of Pod Save 4.0 to mix things up a bit.

We've gotten lots of requests from folks to be able to call in to a pod, so I thought a fun format would be to do it "Around the Horn" style. Fecta and I will set up a conference line and be the moderators. We'll have a series of questions written up that we will ask whoever is on the panel and do our best to keep it organized and right around one hour in length. Fecta and I will surely participate in the discussion as well.

When
Friday, October 13 (ooo extra spooky! expect some Halloween themed questions)
1pm PT / 3pm CT / 4pm ET

How
Fecta and I will set up a conference line or Google Hangout and will provide the info to those who are participating.

Who
To keep things civilized, we'll have three participants, in addition to Fecta and myself.

SPOTS WILL BE FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE. PLEASE ENSURE YOU ARE AVAILABLE AT THE TIME SPECIFIED ABOVE BEFORE SIGNING UP.

If someone must cancel, please try to do so at least 24 hours in advance so we can find a replacement.

If this goes well, we'll surely do it again in the future. In order to give everyone a fair chance to participate if they'd like, later editions will see those who have already participated moved to the bottom of the priority list. We'll also mix up start times so that we can work around everyone's schedules.

Also, we want participation from everyone in some capacity, so if you'd like to submit a question for the panel, please PM Fecta and I (preferable to public posting).

Confirmed Participants
1. Heebs (Heebs )
2. Delap (Delap )
3. Druce (Druce)

Figured time might be an issue. That's one thing that's nice about doing it locally is that Fecta and I can see each other's calendars lol. If no one can call in we'll move the time, but we'll be doing that for sure for future episodes.

[TimPig]

We'll also likely tailor questions to mostly be related to the league as a whole, but the biases in panels like this are what make them fun, so we'll try and stir things up a bit with team-specific questions for the GMs who are participating.

I'm sure that will be a question for the panel.

I could do it if it were an hour later

[Delap]

Strong maybe. Will confirm or backout by Tuesday... don't hold a spot for me though.

[TimPig]

Bump for the Monday crew.

[Lazy Pete]

I will be in Seattle but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna have other stuff going on

I would hope so.

[TimPig]

Bump. Need a couple more here.

Would anyone be able to join if we maybe bumped the time to an hour later? Assuming Heebs could still make that?

[BKay Jewelers]

I could do it if it we're 2 hours earlier

i would need 6 eastern at the earliest and that's with cutting out of work early

i also think you could definitely go with 3-4 and just have an ATH segment. remember ATH is only about twenty minutes long in real life and that's including travel time to the Adande Lounge

[Heebs]

I cannot do this in the evening unless you want my kids in the background.

Delap is in for the original time so we have at least two (including you) in addition to Fecta and I.

One spot left, which Majic may be taking. We can operate with two guests, though I think three is preferable.

I would like a question on why Sunil Gulati and Bruce Arena still have jobs
