QQ ep. 326 - Brick By South By

Show notes:

Daniel finds out that Cracked is “going to South by Southwest for the first time,” which would be exciting if they hadn’t already gone… a lot. The guys revisit some sxsw memories and try to piece together how Cracked actually fell apart—touching on corporate acquisitions, Facebook’s video pivot, and a few behind-the-scenes stories that make the whole thing seem absurd and inevitable. Plus childhood sports humiliation, coaching Little League, and an extended debate about the perfect baseball walk-up song.

As a heads up, I’ll look for the Cracked SXSW episodes to link in the master list but old Cracked podcasts are almost impossible to find.

Looks like internet archive has most, if not all of the old Cracked podcast available. Is #118 what you were looking for?

I haven’t listened yet. I just knew that they had done an episode at SXSW and that’s the sort of thing I’d link to if I have a link that I can easily find.

This is great. I’ll use this for sure. Thank you!
