Like a baby bird launching from its nest, the latest edition of the Teen Tribune has taken flight into the warm spring air!

This month, Anthony digs in to dealing with criticism, Lincoln kicks it with some soccer advice, Normal makes some progress on a very special writing project, Scary pushes science to the limit, and Taylor gets into our heads with some best practices around unauthorized entry.

holy shit the house MD tags in normal’s fan fiction sent me to SPACE also, anthony, your note at the beginning really made me think about art and why i make it. for what it’s worth - season two has been a delight. thank you for making it.

To the criticism thing: A) M Night Shyamalan is an icon and a very wealthy and happy man and not someone to avoid being B) ime on Reddit at least all of the complaints about this season I’ve seen have someone else responding that they really enjoy the thing OP doesn’t like, so like you can’t please everyone and the people who will enjoy the things you make will find it C) there are five incredibly talented writers/comedians on this podcast, which is enough to ensure that any serious flaws w/ an episode or arc will be caught by one of y’all, so you don’t need to read through a bunch of listener criticism to avoid making a bad podcast D) you can engage w/ the fan community w/o paying attention to criticism, just scroll past that or stay in more directly positive spaces, if you want to see people’s ideas but aren’t in a good mental health space to read criticism E) the worst possible thing for the podcast is for you to be unhappy or for doing it to stress you out, bc the best moments of it are when y’all’s genuine joy and friendship bleeds through; that’s the magic of improv as a medium, you get a less refined story than if you drafted and workshopped every scene, but you get more joy in exchange, which is what we all tune in for F) something people have discussed on the Reddit which idk if you’ve seen is that a lot of fans binged season one and are listening to season two as it airs, which totally changes the listening experience; so criticism about the season feeling slow and the plot not moving forward are just an inherent part of having a successful first season that people consume all at once, rather than actual serious faults in the pacing G) there’s nothing wrong w/ enjoying praise for something you worked hard on! That’s not masturbatory, it’s a normal human behavior and the whole reason people create things in the first place: for others to enjoy. Liking when people enjoy the things you make is an objectively good thing, and not something you should feel shame for

Anthony, dude. You do amazing work, and you have created a fancy pants little empire based on piss jokes and sudden onset tears. I am a collaborative creator too, except in a 40-50 person LARP storyteller sense, and after every weekend game I do the same thing and I have the same conflict. You care. I see you caring, and we're not going to get parasocial about it or some shit but you are doing okay. Even the mistakes are okay. Even the ones that people don't understand the experience is okay. Some people like to bitch on the internet. Please keep making art and don't walk into the sea and I'd like to be you when I grow up.

Anthony, we love you! Criticism is really, really hard to deal with especially with creative endeavors but it's okay not to absorb EVERY piece of criticism! Maybe you can try having a critique buddy with you when you seek out comments? Some sorta support who can be with you when you notice things start to get intense ♥

2023-10-12 02:52:26 Few thoughts on criticism - It does seem a lot of people in public spotlight deal with it by not looking at feedback/reviews at all. Which is weird b/c so many of us create for the sake of validation? - Maybe it's important to acknowledge that people skew toward cruelty/unhelpfulness when it's not face to face. - It's important to recognize criticism types: there's constructive stuff and then cynical stuff (people saying: "do not like"). Cynics, even if they're right (about Shyamalan or you) aren't, in the end, helping him or your world development, and EVEN IF they have something constructive mixed in, it's too toxic to sift through. For me, it's a net negative to consume that. It's not going to help. - A big part of my MH is creating stuff. Good art usually means pouring your soul into it. It comes from empathetic and vulnerable places, which (unfairly) make you more susceptible to criticism. My soul is going to be fucked up if I'm consuming toxic feedback and it will make my stuff worse. - We really don't seem suited for standing in front of the world and accepting every reaction. It's new in the last couple hundred years. We focus on the wrong things, can't keep perspective. It just seems practical to put up guardrails. - Of course you don't want an echo-chamber, but if you want the community interaction without the wholesale consumption of feedback- there's gotta be a better way to interact- with like an internal feedback/idea team that is interested in improvement rather than the cynical 'this was better'. -You said scrolling for ideas is like an addiction, but honestly, the potential to find validation is too. I don't think i'd be able to help myself. It's tough. Also, when I only listened I pictured you as a more Thomas Middleditch than Mulvaney? Is that something? better or worse? Whatever, I love S2.

Anthony, rest assured - what you’re making is VERY GOOD!! Your stuff is super entertaining, but it also consistently inspires me to write and create, and that’s not something I usually find in things that make me laugh this hard!
