Popular Post Midtown Madness Posted June 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 11, 2022 Season 2 of the Midtown Madness has more or less come to an end. As we enter the Summer Peter and I would like to first thank @SluSignGuyfor allowing us to pimp our show on this platform and being incredibly supportive of our show and content. Second, this would not be possible without the posters, readers and lurkers of this message board. Billiken Twitter is growing by the day but this is still the major gathering place for die-hard Billiken fans and I would assume ground zero of our listener base. We would probably put out Billiken content regardless of how many listens or views we get, but not only does it make it easier on the psyche to know people appreciate your work but also it helps us attract financial support of sponsor(s) and isn't donated by listeners. Barring a magical decade run of multiple final fours, I don't think our show will ever be a source of steady income to either of us but running it in the black is a lot more sustainable than the red. Looking back to the past of the "relationship" Peter and I have had over the last 18+ years, I still have to stop and laugh that he's become my podcast partner and one of my closest friends. He has brought so much more to this little show than he gives himself credit for from his obsessive research of recruiting, to his knowledge of CBB from the inside out, general knowledge of the game, an incredibly patient on air sounding board board for my dumb references, humor and most importantly being able to reign me in on air and social media. @slufan13, I love you but I don't think you and I together would be having this much success. This next season has the potential to be one of the biggest in Billiken history and by virtue of the fact that we do better numbers when the Billikens are putting up Ws I cannot wait to see if our little show can ride that wave to a wider audience. THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING US YOU MESSAGE BOARD MORONS. Personal and shameless section: I will always be 126% committed(inside joke of sorts) to this show as long as I have 90 minutes a week to devote to recording, but I can't overlook that I'm decent at talking on audio/video and would love to at least explore the possibility of a long term transition into more media with broader audiences as a career. So if anyone has any connections within St. Louis media I would absolutely appreciate linking me with them. Finally, I would be dumb not to at least post our social links to this (DMs are always open, welcome and appreciated): https://twitter.com/MidtownMadPod https://www.instagram.com/midtownmadpod/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjKU0PHmMCH70XutSS9NUAA Please drop us an Apple Review https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/midtown-madness-podcast/id1552953967 https://open.spotify.com/show/1p2II1i9LLMcyysnF9jfkg BrettJollyComedyHour, Dr. Holly Hills, BuiltFordBills and 24 others like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post majerus mojo Posted June 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 11, 2022 I see people occasionally complain about this board on Twitter. Those people are dumb. #1 message board in America In T-Ford Some of Us Trust p.s. Thank you both for the content. I’ve enjoyed hearing from the players/new recruits the most CBFan, Pistol, FromDaEastSide and 8 others like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistol Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Just adding to what Zac said, I sincerely thank everyone here for the support. I really appreciate everyone who listens to the show and interacts with the show's social media presence in any way. I can't believe what we've done in just about 16 months. We've got a lot more coming for you soon, even though we're in the summer doldrums. Another incoming player interview this week, another short but fun interview in the can, and tons of ideas. One of the things I want to tease here now is a summer mailbag episode. At some point here and on Twitter, we'll put out a call for questions and even if we aren't going to have perfect answers for everything, we'll at least give it our best shot and have some fun with that. slufanskip, RiseOfTheBillikens, crymdg2 and 4 others like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowboy II Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 -this post is going here given the title of the thread, no offense meant to the podcast, most of my social media experience is the feed on the main board page of this site, what are these posts about "it's time to follow another Billiken'? I see Okoro and Julia Martinez so it would appear to not be for student/athletes new to SLU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larger followings mean players are more marketable when it comes to NIL deals. if anyone is not following players on social media, fix this. It is a free way to help SLU when it comes to getting players NIL deals. stmdragons and Box and Won like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
