Get It Together

Published on: 31st July, 2018

We are starting to find our footing again after months of inconsistency, and are back to bringing you the very best that we have to offer. We touch on the news of James Gunn being fired, and what that means for entertainers and fans alike. We get down and dirty as we cry about Star Wars for the 1000th time. We laugh and we poke fun at everyone and everything that we can think of in the nerd world. We also get into the Disney and Fox merger, and what that could do to the movie business. So, suit up heroes, we're going to need a bigger boat... Well, just listen and escape from the mundane. Get away from the grind. Ditch the work desk and escape with us!

About your host

Chris Parsons

My name is Chris Parsons, and about 5 years ago, I started a podcast with an old computer and a microphone that I found on eBay. The title of that show was Entertain the Geeky. More than anything, ETG served as a means of filling a void, which my sales job had left in my life. I was no longer part of the nerdy industry that I loved; I had sold out. It couldn't end like that! So, I got in touch with a friend who worked at a comic book shop, with me, and asked if he would be interested in hanging out on Sundays and recording this goofy show with me. He was on board and we were off to the races. More than anything, we over-promised and under-delivered. We started designing tabletop games, we onboarded sponsors, and we started a second title. With plans for a third show and a bright future ahead of us, we pressed on! Life had a different plan... I left my sales job and moved. Recording slowed drastically and ETG started to die. I started an online business, and went to work part time for a gaming store, with another friend from the comic shop that I used to work at. He like me, loves to talk and we decided to,(you guessed it) start a podcast.
We started the show Who Wears the Pants, and have had a blast pushing through the almost therapeutic recording sessions. My co-host started a new business and it reminded me of the birth of my first show. I was able to look back and see some of what I had done wrong , with podcasting in particular. I had arrived at the conclusion that I had only began to scratch the surface of my potential within this domain. The growth and potential of ETG and the fulfillment of WWTP existed somewhere in a new show. Here we are now. With a new show that focuses on the extraordinary that exists within the seemingly normal. We are only slightly average.
