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 leadcharacter 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.
We tried to have the first meeting, but half of the people who signed up didn't show and the half that did show up were all drunk or high. Instead of arranging the second meeting, a group vote established that we would play paper basketball and then leave an hour before we were scheduled to.

A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude.

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.
For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
