Hey Post Pals and Post Patrons!

For the Dec. 26/29 episode of Post Games, I'm giving myself a pseudo-vacation. To be clear, I'll still be publishing a special segment just for y'all. But the episode that week (the thing published on the main feed) will be one of the Patreon exclusive episodes. I'd love your help picking which one.

Some context: I'd love to publish an exclusive episode that has the best shot at inspiring more folks to subscribe. I'm not sure which one fits the bill. Which did y'all enjoy the most? And which do you think non-Patreon listeners will want to hear?

Vote for which episode should appear on the free RSS feed:

Pokemon was spectacular. A real treat.

Ross Felder

Really enjoyed the pokemon one, but I feel like street fighter had a bit better narrative style.

Elliot Starks

While I enjoyed the Street Fighter movie episode the most of these three (which was unexpectedly delightful), I think Pokemon anything has a better chance of bringing in new faces.

Pokemon seems the clear choice. Really interesting history and also really broad appeal- even if they’re not a fan, everybody knows about Pokémon

I think Pokémon has the broadest appeal, but a sample of Journalism 101 is a hook into a series, which gives something specific to subscribe *for*. Tough pick!

Slink

Those three eps def make a nice sampler platter for folks wondering what Post Games brings to the table.

Herbert Chan

Forgotten origin story of pokemon might have the broadest appeal and the biggest draw!

Landon Robinson

That Pokémon episode was so good. More of that PLEASE!

EtherEli

Originally voted Pokémon but I just changed it to street fighter following the TGA announcement of the new movie last night. I think Pokemon has universal appeal but SF might be more searched around now. I also have no experience in journalism or SEO so take that with zero grains of salt
