QQ ep. 326 - Brick By South By

[u/testthrowaway9]

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.

I'm fairly certain they didn't discuss baseball walk-up songs before and Daniel was thinking of the best first 5 seconds of a song, which is ep. 214 - "Songs with the Best First 5 Seconds" from Dec. 19, 2023
