Title:
- Merveilles Town Hall
- The People of Merveilles
- The Merveilles Show
- theVoice
Format:
- ~20' mini-interview to get to know a member of the community
- A community member interviews someone else and produces the episode, then the interviewee chooses the next person to interview. The former interviewee can also and produces the following episode, in a round-robin fashion
- Music is allowed, as long as it comes from a Merveillan - bonus points if it's the interviewee's!
- Published occasionally, "when it's ready"
Tone/Subject:
- Episodes should respect the rules of the instance, notably the code of conduct
- Episodes should also respect rules related to content like animal cruelty and sexuality
- To be as inclusive as possible, episodes should vary guests (or even producers!) and strike a balance between genders
Would love to take part in this as well! A few suggestions: The whole thing should be self hosted, and not rely on any "podcasting directories" like Apple Podcasts or Spotify. We should also transcribe the episodes in text and always have that version with it. I am happy to help with that part as it can be time consuming but really important for accessibility. Another thing about inclusivity is having a document that we could share reminding people about some common words in English that are really not inclusive even though they are every where: "hey guys" is so common and incredibly frustrating to many many people. The amount of content that I have been turned off by because it starts with this greeting is immense.
Would anyone be interested in organizing this podcast idea in a place like Matrix or an Etherpad/Hackpad?
