Kind of a hard question to word, but is there anything in your life you have recommended to other people but no one’s ever gotten into?

I love podcasts and have friends who still thank me for getting them into this one or that one. But I’ve never gotten anyone to listen to My Brother, My Brother and Me. I don’t know if the name is unappealing or the concept but people seem to bounce off immediately.

So what can’t you get people into and why should we check it out?

    I must suck at selling anime because I’ve never got one person into it. But several of them got into it because of someone else later on.

      What did you try to start them on? You’ve gotta get them hooked with the visual style first to get them used to the medium, so I always recommend stuff that would be more familiar to them. Stuff like March Comes In Like A Lion; Much more true-to-life and no sudden “surprises” like we know certain shows can do at particular moments 🙄

        It’s been so long I couldn’t tell you. Though, I remember i didn’t have them watch anything. I was just describing it to them.
