I'm a developer advocate at a startup. Over the last few months my team and I have been working hard to build and launch our own little content hub. We wanted to create a bunch of shows that developers find entertaining and educational.
We've gotten some really solid feedback about several of the shows but one there's one I'm on the fence about continuing. We'll start recording the next round soon and I'm need to decide whether it's worth spending more time on this particular one.
It's a parody of the old Saturday Night Live skit - Deep Thoughts by Jack Handy. So it's a very very very (haha) dry style of humor.
Of course, I think it's funny and I had a blast recording the episodes. But I'm also a mid-30s dad of three little girls so I wouldn't really call myself a "tastemaker" . I'm worried a lot of the context is lost if you're not familiar with that SNL skit.
So my question is – is this actually funny to you? Does it resonate? Or does it just miss the mark? Waste of time to record more episodes?
Thanks in advance! Bryant G
TBH, with a name like Dev Thoughts (shoulda been in the title), one needs to understand programming to even be able to determine whether it’s funny…
——> The tagline at the end is priceless, but I don’t know enough about programming to know if it’s funny.
