I will gladly volunteer. I work alternate Sunday backshift, so if I'm available I'll join in. Should be fun.

Hmmm... you ask questions and I am forced to answer... sounds terrifying

But I gladly volunteer if you still need people.

I'm somewhere between wanting to set a date and checking for interest. The format of the 'chat' will be a quick-fire question and answer session. Some of the questions you might have to think about before such as "Favourite free RPG from 2010" others will be off the cuff simple questions "24 hour or Game Chef?". You won't be given time to ramble on (initially). It's not really an interview, it will be somewhere between a game show, infomercial and highly illegal interrogation. I'll pose a question and call out names in a semi random order. When your name is called, you have to answer. Others can pitch/heckle/mock/jibe/banter in the background if need be. It's more about being fun and a bit different to other, more calm podcasts out there.

That's the sort of thing I'm thinking. I am thrilled you all are keen.

It will be audio only. I don't want to scare people.

I love that format. Though I think there should be a chatty session, but having like a 2/20 (20 questions in 2 minutes) kind of format would be a great idea. Especially as a group.

I'd say I'm in, but no chance of skype for me...

Another idea I had was to have pictures of the Monkeys being Interrogated. This is so that we can put voices to faces. I think it will make a big difference to the listeners. I understand if you're not keen on that, it's just a thought.

Also, the format of the Interrogation will be (times in GMT):
19:45. Congregate, say hello, get used to speaking on Skype in a group put voices to the names to the pictures.
20:00. The Start! I give an explanation (so that when I edit, we have a nice sharp start).
20:0x. Introductions. We go round each person in alphabetical order and give a brief introduction.
20:xx. Questions! I'll ask a question and pick names off the list.
21:xx. Thank yous and good byes.
21:xx. Post Interrogation chatter (which might make the edit if its good).

How's that?
