A free form podcast that utilizes various pseudonyms and voice modulation to disguise the speakers. This is done in an attempt to reduce the biases of the listener. This form of podcast was deeply influenced by Midnight Gospel and its lead character played by Duncan Trussel.
Joe Rogan suggested on his podcast that podcasts were in their adolescence and that a new form needed to be developed. Due to this suggestion anonymous casting was devised to remove the bias that listeners experience when they know who will be on the episode.
