Tweet Me Harder

Tweet Me Harder is "the world's first, best, only and last talkback-enabled interactive audio podblast", hosted by David Malki ! and Kris Straub. It's recorded live and is based around the concept of the hosts checking a Twitter feed of listeners' reactions to the broadcast, and occasionally using reading one out loud to use as a springboard for their conversations. Or not. Typically, episodes run 40 to 70 minutes in length, excluding pre- and post-show banter, which is cut out of the final release and only available during the live broadcasts.

Episodes defy summary, to the point where, were you to become distracted for a minute or two, you would return to find that the subject has changed entirely and without warning, though the transition was almost assuredly seamless. At best, one might be able to describe it as surrealist stream of consciousness spoken word comedy jazz philosophy.

"Malki !: On Twitter, @sammydj2l says, "Bad show idea is to construct jokes and explain the punchline to death." So we've talked briefly about this before, and I think the main key here is that he wants us not to merely explain the punchline of jokes, but to construct the jokes, which is a very difficult and more time-consuming process than simply explaining existing jokes. Kris: I don't know if it's worthwhile! You know? Is it better-- I mean, you could imply a joke and then explain it away. That takes a lot more talent, to be able to invent a joke wholesale, just on the fly. Malki !: Right, just out of wholecloth. And then you have to explain what you've just done. It's sort of like doing a magic trick where you do it, you perform it, and then you go back and deconstruct it. You say "watch my hands. Now, while I'm waving over here, my other hand is going around the back." Is that what he's asking?"
