Our big goal is building a Farcaster native media network. We started live streaming Farcaster news in September 2023, back when weekly active users were less than 1000 and you still needed an invite to join. We’ve been doing shows 3x a week since then, covering news, announcements and culture stories. In addition to the flag ship news show, we have 2 email newsletters, a 12 part onboarding series, helped produce several other series, and run competition game called Cast Out (next season starts Monday!) How much of the show did you watch? We’re always open to feedback, esp from the perspective of new people! 🙏 Here’s some more info about what we’re doing: https://mediakit.gmfarcaster.com

Watched the whole show It was the post farcon show — around 70 minutes long Do you find there is enough going on to make a show 3x a week? How do you think about the “in crowd” nature of the content? On one hand it plays to a niche audience and likely builds trust in them. On the other hand (as an outsider) it comes across a bit exclusionary — I understand this is a tough balance in any audience creation motion

As far as having enough content for 3x a week… That’s hilarious…if I had a nickel for every time someone has asked it 😂😂😂 We started with a tag line of “21 minutes of farcaster news to start your day” We always ran over because there was so much going on. We changed it to 29 minutes, and guess what, we still always go over The merkle team ships constantly. There’s plenty to talk about, and if there’s not enough actual news, there’s always a meme or some cultural touch point that people find interesting enough that we can talk about The beauty of a decentralized network that invites permissionless innovation- someone is always building something ! 💜💜
