Feisty Meatball

Tenacious. Delicious.

Good Day, lovelies,

I had a meeting today with some dudes over at Mevio (formerly of Podshow fame) who aren't sure they like the title "Feisty Meatball". The show is taking a turn towards the advice genre, and they think I should call it something sexier or at least more descriptive so that people know what they're clicking on. At first I thought that was silly. There are plenty of successful shows out there that have non-descriptive titles (Flight of the Conchords, Monty Python, etc.) But then I started thinking that maybe they're right. Maybe it would be smarter for me to build a show around a clear-cut concept for once. So I'm asking for your advice. Say the show is just me answering advice questions (hilariously, of course). What would be a good title? Also, does that sound like an entertaining show to you?

Love,
sg

It's just so conventional.

Ok, the meatball needs to stay. "just cuz i'm round and brown, doesn't mean i'm a poop!"
that had me laughing out loud, by myself in the house. i think the meatball is hilarious.
maybe you could use a different adjective, or a pop culture reference. You and Ryan just need to get high and brainstorm!
...like "talk to the meatball" or "meatball diaries" or "love and a meatball" or "magic meatball" or...."meatball matters"!
those are probably kinda lame, i can't tell, but something like that. or a reference to a person. like "edgar meatball" (i dunno i googled "psychic" and someone named edgar came up...wow, edgar is a cool name)
as I said before, high brainstorming

I also like Ask Soccergirl - pretty much to the point.

Maybe not SGQ...pretty sure you're not going for a gq magazine vibe.

I just assumed that Feisty Meatball and Science Brigade were not part of Mevio and that you were venturing out on your own like Dawn and Drew.
Advice shows, bleh. They always turn into dumb sex and relationship stuff. "I'm 14 years old, should I fuck this 30 year old guy? " and other such nonsense. I suppose it would be cool if you either gave totally bogus answers or just made up questions from fake people
I love Soccergirl Incorporated for the same reasons that Keith and the Girl fans hate it, all of the stream of consciousness, randomADHD ness of it all

Good thoughts, everyone. I usually hate advice shows too, but that's because they're seriously about advice... like that you would take... I like the idea of an advice show as a setup for a Soccergirl-style make fun of the question type thing. I promise it won't just be dumb sex and relationships stuff. It'll be ridiculous.

Yes, UK John, I have to have meetings... if I want to make any money ever that is. I'm trying to make a show that isn't lame for the Mevio features so I can get ads because I'm very poor and I would rather make shows than work in an office.

I love Feisty Meatball but I came up with it as a Mevio show and it's not working out as that. If I'm going to spend buttloads of time on a show that isn't going to make money for the foreseeable future, it's gonna be Science Brigade, you better believe!

So unless you guys want to fund my non-profit creative endeavors (a worth-while expenditure, to be sure) I'm going to have to branch out to more semi-conventional projects. Once I get past this hurdle of extreme emergency poverty I'll feel a little safer about venturing out on my own entirely, like D&D.

Ack. Now if only someone would set up the website, help me with lighting, get me some merch and promote worldwide, I'd be set.

Sorry to rant, guys. It's a tricky spot I'm in right now.
