I can only echo the previous comments - really enjoyed each episode, and hope it's not too long until season 2. Good stuff @WheresMyTent and co.

Thanks so much! We definitely want to get at least a couple more episodes out before  the festival itself so hopefully won’t be too long! Just have to sort out the structure! ?

Loved season 1, as it’s our first time it’s help make lots of decisions without feeling like the fun is being sucked out of it. As the season gone on you have forgotten that the mic is on and it’s flowed really well.

Hi @kalifire! Some great suggestions! We’re currently hoping to have some guests on for series 2 talking about the different areas of the festival. Our first few keen volunteers hail from the Glade area, and also the Green Fields. 

Your suggestion of a debrief and build up to ticket day is very valid though! We’ll definitely be turning those into multiple episodes.

As for a meet-up, maybe a “GlastoCast” one in 2020, but this year I know Miguel and myself have said we’ll pop along to the Efests meet if you’d have us... Rob can be a wildcard but we’ll do our best to drag him along too haha. 

You'd be very welcome!

I suppose Neil might have different ideas what with them running a rival site and all...

Rival site? I hope that’s not what people think!

[OG]

I can't imagine anybody thinks that apart from the paranoid / over-thinkers around here. You asked Mr @eFestivals if it was ok to carry on with this thread and he didn't shut it down so all good I would say.

Don't shoot me down, but how do you find/listen to podcasts?  If I just say to Alexa "play Glastocast" it will come on?

if can be done if you're nerdy enough.

Alexa help team just said it is too new and not yet available to ask Alexa to play it.  He is passing it to the Spotify team and then tell me I can ask Alexa direct.  In the mean time I am now playing it on Spotify through Alexa!

It was meant tongue in cheek, which can be a bit hard to convey on-line

Binge listened to all 6 episodes while at work today.

Really great stuff! Understand it was mostly targeted at a festival beginner, but it really did get me hyped for Glastonbury. Looking forward to season 2.

Really enjoyed the latest episode BTW, you covered a hell of a lot of ground!

[wairey]

Just listened to, and really enjoyed, the camping episode! Thanks for doing these guys. It's my first Glasto this year and having done Reading a couple of times, the Glastonbury camping "culture" sounds much more pleasant! 

[Flysheet]

Got No 6 uploaded to listen to on a long train ride tmrw. Good stuff even for a seasoned Glasto goer

[dccool]

Listened to the last one yesterday.

Great stuff guys looking forward to season 2 already.

[marathonsteve]

I have to admit I have only listen to the first one but its looking good.

[mario man]

I’ve listened to them all and thoroughly enjoyed them! Agree with comments on here that they got more relaxed as the shows progressed and they were better for it. 

I really enjoyed the listener snippets they introduced halfway through the series.

I like how they generally kept the first series ‘blind’ as in no direct links/reference to the upcoming 2019 festival, however it would be good to have a few separate episodes directly related to the next festival - I appreciate the desire to keep the episodes ‘clean’ for future listening but in the run up it would be great to get some specific episodes for the upcoming festival. 

Other than that, awesome ? Well done all involved!

Just had a listen of the final one of the series, look forward to the next one. Talking about individual areas is a great idea so the Avalon episode would particularly get me interested. 

Also like the fact the yorkie pudding place got a mention!

Raced through all the episodes of this over the bank holiday! Really enjoyed it Loving the level of obsessive detail and could totally relate.

[marathonsteve]

These are really quite good to listen to

Hi all, I know a few of you were waiting to see what season 2 would bring. We just put out our first episode today, interviewing the Media Manager for Avalon and Glade (two of my favourite areas! ) Links below, would love to know your thoughts!
