*The Sylphreni Show - Chicago GM Interview

Sylphreni · (This post was last modified: 04-27-2020, 01:26 PM by slothfacekilla.)

Two podcasts in one week! Is that even a thing? Sure..... why the hell not, everybody needs something to listen to during this damned quarantine... Right?

Really excited about this podcast, on which BayleyIsland, new GM for the Chicago Butchers is kind enough to join me on. Huge thank you to Bayley, he was extremely thoughtful throughout the interview with his answers, and I really appreciated his insight. He told me prior to recording that he was pretty much an open door, and he certainly lived up to that.

Anyways, enough rambling by me.... Here's what you can expect to find on the pod today:

An in depth look into Bayley's credentials as a GM
Discussion on the Chicago situation at the end of last season, and how the new GMs came to be.
A fantastic round of "Would you Rather"
We talk Chicago's S22 draft in review, and there plans for future team building
Honestly, probably the funniest movie I've suggested for "Media Suggestion" seriously.... Watch it
I answer some of Bayley's questions begrudgingly and at gunpoint
And much, much more!

LISTEN HERE

Notes for the Grader

Pretty sure I'm capped for the week on podcast earnings. So please give Bayley as much as possible, I'd argue for at least 80% as he did most of the talking.
Whatever you can't give Bayley, please donate to the Gimmy Jaroppolo Memorial Fund.

I'll say 50/50 for this. He put a ton of research into the interview.

The tables really turned when you were answering questions

Really nice insight into the process in Chicago moving forward

The production value on this was so high. Great listen.

And this is why he didn't interview you.

Great stuff as always. Very fortunate that you got Bayley instead of Muford for this.

I'm really glad you took the time to shine a light on the situation in Chicago and the great work the new GMs have done. We want the league to be fun, we want new players (like yourself) to enjoy it no matter what team they end up with. With what happened with Chicago amidst so many new players coming into the league lately, it can really give the team and the league a bad look. But as you guys got into I think things are on the upswing. At the very least I think we've made the best of a bad situation.

I somehow have never seen Clerks. I will have to go do that now. Bayley wants everyone in the LR to watch Heavyweights so this will give me an excuse not to. I still gotta finish reading Mistborn trilogy too....
