Wrapping up this particular flavor of iteration curation, we added the YouTube link for the final Callin archive Pumpkin Heads discussion (posted in this feed on 10/20/24) as a source in NotebookLM. The generated conversation was again impressive while still exhibiting obvious room for growth and enhancement. Key points: - Female host started this one - The creator (singular) - “Neighborhood barbecue” (not B-B-Q this time) - First infected “starts flirting with Dad’s best friend…”? - WASP knife angle explained correctly this time! - Both hosts eventually say “WASP P knife” - Smart twin actually dead? I think we talked about that in episode 3… - “It deserves to be out there” “It’s a story that needs to be told” “Maybe someone out there is already working on it” - “In the meantime keep those lights on and those WASP knives handy” Poetry: The Notebook evolves Quicker in some areas And still room to grow Contact us: sendingpoets@gmail.com…

Following from the last episode, we added the YouTube link for episode 2 of the Callin archive Pumpkin Heads discussion (posted in this feed on 10/13/24) as a source in NotebookLM. And then, you guessed, it, we regenerated the "conversation" and again, the iterative method bears fruit. Key points: - Almost get a sense that the hosts are getting more comfortable with the material, more jokes and smoother back and forth - Less “your notes” stuff - “The writers” instead… - “This one’s a doozy” - Groundhog Day homage? Ha ha ha - “I can already tell this is gonna be messing with my dreams tonight” - “We’re only 9 meals away from anarchy” - “WASP” pronounced correctly, though the intent was lost on the hosts - “Keep those brains safe out there” Poetry: NotebookLM's aid To craft a tale of terror Pumpkin Heads arise Contact us: sendingpoets@gmail.com…

In this second round of using Google's AI tool, NotebookLM, to facilitate development of the Pumpkin Heads story, we added a new source: the YouTube link for episode 1 of the Callin archive Pumpkin Heads discussion (posted in this feed on 10/6/24). Then we regenerated the "conversation" and while you can judge for yourself, we definitely could tell an improvement just from that additional source. Key points: - Mostly similar but some new stuff, focus on parts not mentioned in the first iteration - “Your notes, your concept, your…” - This was interesting… the references from both hosts to “your” instead of “the creators” - “Parasitic Alien Invasion - those are three of my favorite things” - “Gruesome biological booby trap” - Re: the POV concept: “Like a jigsaw puzzle but with perspectives instead of pieces” - Reference to The Trolly Problem in regard to the smart twin’s choice - “Sometimes the scariest monsters are the ones we create ourselves” Poetry: Next NotebookLM Wow this tech is pretty nuts Good stuff in round 2 Contact us: sendingpoets@gmail.com…

Is fear ever fair? 1:44:39

In this episode we share some personal stories related to fear, movie and biblical references of fear (don't worry, we definitely included Dune), and our general thoughts about the impact and implications of fear itself. Poetry and quotes: Is fear ever fair? Is it something we can use? Or does it use us? Litany against Fear (from Dune): "I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." “In the end I am nothing, but right now I am everything” - Tucker “Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads up hate. Hate leads to suffering.” - Yoda Contact us: sendingpoets@gmail.com…

We're diving in to the topic of politics! Our intent however is not to get bogged down with complaints over the current climate but instead to ponder the possibilities of new ways of governance. Poetry and quotes: The intersection Between "pol" and "phil" is where Everyone should be "Some people are philosophers and some are politicians. Philosophers want to reach truth/understanding. Politicians want to win. Helped me rethink some relationships, how hard I was working to reach the other person and find understanding with them when they just wanted to win." - Tucker "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." - Voltaire (or his biographer, Evelyn Beatrice Hall) Contact us: sendingpoets@gmail.com…
