The reason we call it an experience, is that its much more than a podcast or blog. Let’s go through what we offer;
Our “A Closer Look at OUAT” Blog (http://blog.onceuponatimepodcast.com)
This is where we post in-depth thoughts and screen shots of Easter Eggs in Once Upon a Time, as well as links to interviews with the cast and much more.
The Once Upon a Time Fan Podcast. This isn’t a show where the hosts talk the entire time about what they found. Our show focus on the fans of OUAT and join them to be a part of our podcast, because of that we have three shows;
First Thoughts, recorded directly after the West Coast airing of a new OUAT episode, Jeff and Colleen discuss their first thoughts of the episode,
Our Regular show, featuring awesome Voicemails, recorded on Thursday night, Jeff and Colleen play awesome voicemails from our listeners and discuss what they saw, theories, etc,
Our Live show featuring Emails, Jeff and Colleen take the OUAT Fan Podcast live on Saturday nights. Listeners from all over the world listen and chat while we read awesome emails and discuss them.
We have been so fortunate to catch the attention of the OUAT cast, and have received numerous voicemails from; Mig Macario ((Bashful) separately and with shoutouts from the other 5 dwarves), Faustino Di Bauda, Meghan Ory. We say, “You never know what will happen during a OUAT Fan Podcast episode, so never miss one”.
Many people enjoy these two parts of what we have to offer, but to see what we mean by experience, we also have create a fun, vibrant and positive community on Twitter.
Our Twitter name is @OUATPodcast, this is how the fun of the show reaches out into cyberspace. Some feel Twitter removes the friend from friendships, but we have seen the opposite. New listeners venture onto Twitter and find friends, discussion buddies, as well as people that help others start things like knitting (I know it sounds crazy, but its true), but that’s not all, we also have a forum.
Since 140 characters aren’t nearly enough to have an in-depth discussion, we created our OUAT Forum. From the day it was set up it has always been a buzz of excitement, new theories, re-thinking old theories, etc. It is a nice community to dig in deeper to the fun and levels of OUAT.
If all that wasn’t enough, Jeff and Colleen live in Orange County, which gives them the opportunity to attend the OUAT Paley Center event, Wondercon and other events as well. Jeff says, “We want to take our listeners with us when we attend events. We represent them, and we give them up to minute info (including live Tweeting, and sometimes sending live audio to Twitter).
So, as you can see the Once Upon a Time Fan Podcast is much, much more than just a podcast or blog. Many people say that our podcast is the perfect addition to viewing a OUAT, and we work hard to keep that up.
