Episode 104: Final Mega Episode

In an effort to properly close the chapter on the talk show aspect of the "Hot Takes" experience, the team came together for an extra special five-hour conclusion to the show, featuring any previous guest and server member that wanted to join the live conversation on video. We haven't had a truly public community episode since the ending of season 3, and we quickly learned that there is a limit to how many people can be in a Discord videochat session on video at any given time! Numerous previous guests joined us to chat, some of them sticking around for the entire four-hour portion of open dialogue with the community, who also came out in droves, we might add. There was a number of engaging and terrific conversations that got everybody riled, like how to properly define and delineate signalwave from other vaporwave genres, how to better give and take constructive criticism within the scene, and the profitability or lack thereof of IRL vaporwave shows! Despite the chaos, the imperfections with audio levels, some miscommunications, misunderstandings, and a few guests talking a little bit too much compared to others, the finale of the five-year strong "Hot Takes" podcast and talk show was lively, poignant, and memorable. Five hours is a lot to ask of our viewers and listeners, but if you couldn't be there on Twitch or in Discord videochat, we encourage you to take in the entire experience!
