The Start of the Perfect Commotion podcast.

alan@perfectcommotion.co.uk (Alan O'Brien, Nick S. Proud, David Barr, Sandy Fok) — Mon, 26 Jan 2015 23:41:00 +0000

Hello and Welcome to the Perfect Commotion podcast.

Perfect Commotion is a media exchange podcast, the aim of which is to introduce ourselves to things we have not tried before and might not want to try.

Each host will give a piece of media to another host and in return will consume something given to them. The best way to express this concept is with an example, in our first show we are consuming:

Alan is Reading SteelHeart by Brandon Sanderson
Sandy is Watching Cool Runnings
Nick is Playing The Walking Dead by TellTale Games
Dave is Watching Dirk Gently

I (Alan) recommended Cool Runnings to Sandy, who in turn suggested Nick plays The Walking Dead and so on and so forth.

Nick is not a fan of dark and gritty things and Sandy just so happened to recommend him the Walking Dead. I am not a big fantasy fan, preferring sci-fi so Dave found a sci-fi book written by a fantasy author. To find out how if Nick enjoyed a rather depressing game you are going to have to tune in.

Considering I know Nick from competitive Team Fortress 2 there are surprisingly few computer games in the first week, I suspect that will change over time.

We will be recording every other week, are first show is being recorded Wednesday 28th at 8pm, we plan to release the show on Friday night.

Stay tuned for the first show and how to download.

Alan
