SMM " The Brain Candy Podcast"

-
            The co-hosts of this podcast met on MTV's "The Challenge", a physical competition reality TV show that features stars from their other reality TV shows ("The Real World" and "Road Rules"). The two hit it off immediately, bonding over science and puzzles.
             Susie Meister originally appeared on "Road Rules: Down Under", which aired in 1998. Since then she's gone on to complete her doctorate in religious studies, and she does freelance writing for online news sites such as "Medium". Sarah Rice, her co-host, was first seen on "The Real World: Brooklyn" in 2009. Sarah is currently working on her Ph.D. in psychology, specifically in family counseling. Since the girls have similar experiences they created a weekly podcast called "The Brain Candy Podcast", a marriage of pop culture (reality tv) and education.
            Due to being in the public eye the girls already had a following on their personal social media channels making it easy to gain a small following for the podcast in the beginning. The girls have been sure to be cognizant of linking their social media channels Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, & their website on their newsletter. We discussed in chapter seven of our text “Social Media Marketing: A Strategic Approach” by Barker &Barker. All to share “The Brain Candy Podcast’s” content, and to measure and get feedback on their content.

          Netflix currently released the third and final season for the show this March. The series is set in L.A. and follows Mickey Dobson, an alcoholic sex and love addict, through relationships and relationship missteps. We see Mickey grow and build a relationship with Gus who has his own anger management and self destructing habits. It's funny, and the experiences in the show seem realistic. This, is not a typical romance story the lovable duo hits a lot of snags, bumps, and cliffs along the way. But, it's more about their decision and choice to be better everyday and ultimate decision to work through things together. Even though their path has never been easy, the realization that they make each other better is much more valuable then the potential pitfalls.         The third season is bittersweet, I'm sad to let go of these characters after growing to love them during a rocky start in their relationship. This season the duo travels to...

"Hurt's Soccer" Bob's Burgers

        Bob's Burgers is one of my favorite shows to watch. It's focused around an entrepreneur and his kooky family. The cast is lovable and funny. There's Bob whose monotone and somewhat of a wet blanket. While his wife is nurturing, light-hearted, and fun. Their eldest daughter is like Bob, she's monotone, but she's quirky and like any other teenage girl obsessed with boys. Gene is the musical one and Louise is the trouble maker! This is my go to show to just throw on in the background while cleaning or chatting with my friends. The one-liners are hilarious and repeatable.          In the most recent episode Bob and Linda realize they had signed up Louise for a soccer teams weeks ago and never took her. The coach of the team calls and asks that she show up for the last game. Louise is not thrilled about this to say the least, neither are her parents.          Upon, arriving at the field Bob is informed that he ...
