A short little episode to take in with your morning coffee and get ready for the Men's and Women's A10 Soccer Tournament.
We'll most likely record an episode after the men's and women's a10 tournaments, would be nice if they could both grab an NCAA Tournament bid so we have more to talk about. After that we'll probably settle in to once every 2 weeks release schedule during the offseason and focus on bringing you all interviews.
Speaking of interviews, we recorded an awesome interview with the former head of SLU Sports Medicine Anthony Breitbach, so be on the look out for that at some point next week(we could push the release another week pending the NCAA Soccer tournaments so that we can keep a steady stream of content.

We recorded the majority of this episode on Sunday night, we had heard the rumblings about the big news coming down the pipe at 10:30, we debated recording a Nesbitt segment just in case but we were nervous we'd jinx it. We decided to go ahead and record just before the National Championship and release this morning. You'll notice a segment, post Nesbitt commitment talk where we discuss Nesbitt being in the portal. Funny part is between recording sessions I upgraded to a new macbook air so if you watch on youtube you can see the difference in quality of my video when we transition from Rashad Williams to Jordan Nesbitt.

Hey guys,
Technology has really been a pain in my butt today. I have been trying to get our video on Youtube and Anchor to upload our audio only episode to all platforms. I finally managed to get Youtube up and I wanted to put it up here because this board has been so instrumental to the success of both podcasts. Given our special guest, I think the video edition is well worth a watch!
Audio only will be up at some point this afternoon. I'll be upgrading my macbook soon so hopefully these issues will be a thing of the past.\

Some really great discussion in this episode surrounding the past week and how the staff handled the waiting game and selling itself to the committee. Kept it lighthearted given the recent heartbreak in both Men's and Women's hoops.

I want to bump this, a little technical difficulties last night. The episode is now available on all platforms.

In terms of metrics/monetization/benefit to you/etc., is it preferable to have people watch on YouTube or listen on Spotify?
I'm not sure it matters if we're presenting ourselves to a sponsor but as far as monetization through Anchor. Using a podcast app is the better move.

I gave this a listen last night. Great listen overall and fun to have an opposing view on. I was sort of appalled that when Sullivan said something like "Crutcher is going to be the best player on the floor during the game..." neither of you pushed back on that in favor of Jordan Goodwin. I don't think it is too controversial to say Crutcher will be the best offensive player (though an efficiency based case could be made for Perkins), but overall I think it gets more fuzzy. Stats wise - Evan Miya (https://evanmiya.com/) has Goodwin #46 ITN in his player ratings and Crutcher is #328, but T-Rank (https://barttorvik.com/playerstat.php?link=y&cvalue=A10&xvalue=undefined&year=2021&start=20201101&end=20210501) has Crutcher pretty easily #1 in the A10 and Goodwin at #18.
Thank you for your support! If you watch the video pod on youtube, you can probably see me roll my eyes when he said it.

Game Day bumping this for those that may not have caught that the pod is available on Spotify now. Still time to check out the first episode(Although not a whole lot pertaining to Rhode Island). Also make sure you give us a follow on the twitter account above!

Hey Billikens.com, as some of you may be aware I made the extremely difficult decision to leave The House That Rick Built. It was a decision I debated on for almost a month now. I do not want to get into specifics, I have no intention of smearing Collin in any way. I'm grateful to him for bringing me onto THTRB 2 years ago and igniting a passion in producing content on top of my Billiken passion. Unfortunately I felt I had no other choice. I do however remain fully committed to producing Billiken content(You can decide if it's quality for yourselves
). I was not the technical brains behind THTRB operation. While I know just enough currently about editing and production to be dangerous I was not fully involved in that sector of the pod. So with that in mind I decided that a Youtube show would be the most appropriate outlet for myself to utilize for the rest of this season and then work on a podcast outlet for the show going forward over the summer.
With that being said I want to present to you Episode 1 of what's currently an unnamed Billiken youtube show featuring myself, Zac Miller and Peter Hale. We are workshopping a permanent title but the leader is currently Midtown Madness(thus the username). I want to thank all of you for your support over the years on this board(not only the past 2 years with the podcast).

Midtown Madness: Episode 9 featuring an Interview with Women's Soccer Coach Katie Shields
in Billikens.com Main Board
Posted
I wanted to add the Youtube option for anyone who wants to watch our interview with Coach Shields. I think my reaction after the interview speaks for itself but man, Katie Shields just has IT. The interview runs about 38 minutes at the beginning and really is worth watching.
