The MeFi podcast needs a sign off catchphrase. August 20, 2007 10:55 PM Subscribe
The MeFi podcast needs a sign off catchphrase. Matt tends to end podcasts with 'That's it.' or 'Thanks'. We need something catchy like 'Pancakes!' or 'Don't overthink your plate of beans.'
What's your suggestion?

Not a catchphrase, an outro jingle. You should end with a cover of Dora the Explorer's "We Did It", customized to recap the events covered in each episode.*

How 'bout a bit of a down-home flavor with:
"Thanks for joining us again, friends and neighbors, and 'til next time, remember, there's another mule kickin' in your stall!"
Note: You can insert a new and different folk proverb or line from a blues song every time, so the signoff doesn't get stale.

I would pay money for Jess and Matt to reproduce one of the horrible Ovaltine radio ads that I hear on AM every so often ("I love rich chocolate Ovaltine shakes!""Yeah! Billy's mom makes the best rich chocolate Ovaltine shakes!" Fuck you in the eyes, kids. Fuck you in the eyes).
Alternatively: "EXCELSIOR!"

The podcast doesn't need a catchphrase. It's a lo-fi gig; it's better when it ends awkwardly (or unawkwardly, if that is how it happens to go) because it feels like a real conversation that we happen to be a fly on the wall for rather than some goddamned production. Do you end your conversations with your own personal catchphrases, MeFites? Are we so corporatized by our other encounters with media that we need signoff catchphrases to help structure everything? Please don't do this, Matt.

You have to exorcise those demons by recording the song & making it yours. Seriously, I'll pay $50 to the charity of your choice for a version of you & Jess singing this. I'll even draft up sample lyrics, but feel free to change them if it makes you more likely to sing the song.

We banned that cock who self-linked Mesothelioma (Note: you might have to stretch to make the meter work on this line), yeah we did it! we did it! we did it, YAY!
That's all I have for now. Seriously, $50. I'll even donate it to a fake charity like the EFF or whatever. Charity of your choice, just gives me some Haughey/Jessamyn flavored Dora!!

Matthowie is stuck with the Dora song. As a parent a decade ahead, I'm stuck with Barney nightmares. A part of parenting is the useless baggage of kiddy-pop cultural touchstones you get stuck with for the rest of your life. What sucks most is only a small percentage of other parents ever know what the hell you are talking about when you gibber about purple dinosaurs, or whether or not the early teen male and female lead kids on that show ever hooked-up, or other horrible mental detritus is left from your kids' toddlerhoods.

Actually, Jessamyn has a good point about this last 'cast not ending with a MeFi Music track. I'm a big supporter of ending each show with a MeFi Music track. And having one at the beginning, too. And, hey, how 'bout one in the middle? I think it should be a shuffle, though: always ending with the same music is, I think, gonna get tiresome.

I want just the opposite of folksy, homespun podcasting. I want location reports from traveling reporters providing updates ON-THE-SCENE. I want Matt and Jessamyn to be replaced by a male-female anchor team with neat hair and teeth so fantastic you can hear the enamel gleam at 64 bit data rates, ticking off the week's bullet points rapid-fire. The whole show should run for exactly twenty three and a half minutes. I want a hard-driving theme song and Don LaFontaine introducing the hosts. And I want the closing to be a recitation of every word and graphic scenario that you can't mention on American television without risking an FCC inquiry.

And I'm stuck with The Wiggles. Forever. You just have to accept, mathowie, that you will never shake that song from your head - it will come back to you at odd times throughout your life from this point on.
For those of you yet to procreate, let this be a warning to you.
The podcasts need no fancy ending - just the fact that they end is bad enough, without some lame call-off. I like the casual "OK, that'll do" *click*.

Also, I think Matt's default to "That's our show" is really Ira Glass-influenced. That's usually how Ira ends his show, also adding a little bit of an interview from the show removed from its context. But he almost always says "That's our show." It would be great for the podcast to have its own tagline.
Regardless of how lofi it is, there are a lot of little conventions like this that make it more listenable. That's the reason radio hasn't departed from that model for 70-some years. It gives listeners orientation points. I'm all for something like "Well, Thanks for listening to the MetaFilter podcast. This was good."
Or "Time to make the doughnuts."

Simple, clean, non-ridiculous, non-elaborate, referential.

No, not really, but "open square bracket this was good close square bracket" doesn't exactly have the smooth flow of some of the other suggestions.

*singing*
We'll meet again,
Don't know where,
Don't know when,
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day!
*KABOOM!*

How about "Matt Haughey, Portland, Oregon,CNN Metafilter."
And of course a short quote from the interview replayed
out of context like TAL.
