EPIC FU once a week or twice a week? looking for your feedback!
The MIX community is always the first and best place Zadi and I can go to get feedback about the show.
Recently we've been talking about ways we can make Tuesday and Thursday shows different enough from each other that it's easy to recognize what will be on each day. For example, right now we do the Artist of the Week on Tuesday and the FU of the Week on Thursday.
But in discussing more ways to differentiate the days, we were looking at some of the viewership numbers around the two shows. Tuesday shows get as many views as Thursday shows, even though Thursday shows are actually up for twice as long (4 days versus 2 days for Tuesday).
This got us thinking -- would it be better to create one show per week and just pack it full of all the stuff we do on both days?
It wouldn't look that different from what we do now, but it would be longer. We'd be able to do more news, spend a little more time with our interviews, and have both an Artist of the Week and a FU of the Week, play flash games, do Campfires, the works.
What do you guys think? Is a once-a-week 9-10 minute show better than twice a week for 5-6 minutes each? Which would you prefer and why?

Personally, I preferred the 9 to 10 minute show. I found that I got a lot more out of it. The twice a week just seemed to be filled with to much filling and not enough meat, for my taste anyway. I am very excited about the change back.

The more FU, the better, so I like the idea of one large Tuesday show and a normal-sized Thursday. I know it's more work for you guys, but if you can manage it all, then go for it. I have not been disappointed in one show since I started watching Jet Set back in early '07. So, keep it up. I love it all.

Hey guys, just so you know this thread was from August, 2008 when we were with Rev3. We made the switch from two 5-minute episodes per week to one 10-minute episode as I'm sure a lot of you remember.
In the future, we're going to work out a different kind of schedule.
Just wanted to let everyone know who's been commenting on an old thread! :)

LOL @ earwax. I have never been a big fan of Pioneer headphones. The last Pioneer headphones i purchased were the SE-NC70S and in about three months the right side died out and the battery life was crap. What I do like about pioneer is the sound q...
Well I have the 2006 80 GB classic & the 32GB iPod touch both sound qualities are great but I must agree about the classic being better. I've been getting alot positive feedback about Sennheiser so I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the info!
