Name That Show!

Here's a hypothetical situation for you all to ponder...

Suppose you're writing this podcast. (I know - this is a stretch, but work with me here.) It's somewhere between an urban fantasy/alternate history/buddy story kind of thing where an ordinary guy finds himself in an extraordinary situation. With me so far? I don't think I'm giving away too much to say that said situation involves a bit of magic, ancient forces that shape and hold reality together, and a twisted version of the hero's journey.

The question we have for you is this: What would you call it?

We've been writing scripts for several months now. We know our characters pretty well, have a fairly good idea of how the story ends, and we've even started exploring theme music. But we don't have the foggiest idea what to name the show. And we need ideas.

This is where you come in, dear readers. Please help us out by suggesting a name or names for our show. We can't guarantee that we'll use any of the suggestions - but we will seriously consider all of them - and if your idea is the one we go with, then we will write you into one of the scripts as a character that Alex meets on the road. That doesn't mean you'll be doing the voice, necessarily -- but you will be guaranteed fame among our 7 other listeners.

So leave us a comment or two. Help a couple of struggling writers out, yo.

And announcing the next installment of Reader Question Wednesday a week from tomorrow - on April 22. Send us an e-mail or drop us a comment with your questions about anything - podcast-related or not (there is a precedent now), and we'll gladly answer them. Well, we'll answer them... "gladly" is a relative term.
