Daily Chit Chat (Streamiversity)

Our personal icons, Rob and Danielle (Ronielle?), are each dealing with some developments in their personal lives: one nice, and one not so nice. Richard and Gretchen speculate on both fronts. Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

It appears like things at Quibi are O-V-E-R, so get ready for Rob and Danielle to start a new chapter in all things streaming. That means our Scholars should get ready for any and all streaming services to be studied! Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

There's a shiny new interactive app called Whatifi that has captured Danielle and Rob's attention. Richard has decided to download it as well, but still doesn't know if it costs anything. Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

Danielle and Rob revealed to the world that Quibi is cursed. Even though there are good people affected by this discovery, it doesn't change the fact that a curse is still a curse. Gretchen and Richard take a breath, and get really meta as they reminisce about their own podcast journey... Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

...and you'll never work a day in your life. Richard sympathizes with Rob and Danielle's sentiments that opening the Quibi app has become a chore. Gretchen doesn't, because she still doesn't have Quibi! As much as Danielle and Rob delight in Quibi's downfall, they really feel for the creators and employees wrapped up in all this. Gretchen and Richard go through some of the finer points of their ad...

Quibi is to TikTok like an Apple is to a Submarine... and that's basically a quote from the Shrek Daddy himself! Well the TikTokkers couldn't agree more, so Richard and Gretchen develop some formulas to figure out why!? Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

The long running prank show Punk'd has returned on Quibi, and Danielle and Rob got into a deep discussion with show producer Nick Kreiss. Perhaps the greatest prank of all is the younger generation not even having Quibi on their radar. Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

Hey Scholars, we still have a few more thoughts on that emergency episode! Like, if Meg W. and J. Katz are really startup founders, why don't they take that kind of salary? Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

Richard and Gretchen (along with all the other Streamillionaires) were pleasantly surprised when Danielle and Rob dropped an emergency episode to talk all things Quibi layoffs. They try to process their feelings after hearing that episode. Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

Scott makes his last points on the subject of Quibi and Streamiverse (for now). He helps Gretchen and Richard grade Quibi on a curve! Until next we check in, a big thanks goes to Scott as we all take the weekend off! Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

This is part two of the Scott talk. He talks Quick Bites vs. Slow Meals and even drops some HBO Max info! Scott's so nice we had him twice... in a row... as a guest... on the podcast! Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

Are you searching for your "center peace"!? Well, Scott is going teach the teacher's and really dig deep to find the true meaning behind a new favorite Qubi show brought to us by Streamiverse! Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

Danielle and Rob's interview with Steve Mallory may be the most honest interview a Quibi alum has given to date- and we're here for it! Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

This week we're back to hitting the books on our Streamiverse mentors. The Pod Daddy (Rob) has an important morality tale on the perils of telling fibs as a form of entertainment. Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

We bid Adieu to Craig in this, the last segment of his lecture! We've all learned a lot! The teachers became the students... The Quick Bite became the Long Meal... The Metaphors became so much harder to understand... as time marches on. Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity Follow Craig on Twitter: @TLPCraig

Tech writer/vlogger/insider Craig Hanks continues his talk about Quibi and JKatz. He looks into his Magic 8 Ball and tells us a possible future for the streaming mobile app! Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity Follow Craig on Twitter: @TLPCraig

Anothher Quibi Quibble is brought up... what does Disney+ and HBO Max have over Quibi? Find out. Also is Craig a JKatz fan or JKatz foe!? Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity Follow Craig on Twitter: @TLPCraig

In order to really save Qubi, Craig makes suggestions to turn the tables on Quibi's turn-style interface! If you have a fear of missing out, maybe stick with Netflix?  Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity Follow Craig on Twitter: @TLPCraig

Tech writer/vlogger/insider Craig Hanks joins us to talk about Quibi; from his first impressions at CES, to trying it out himself. Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity Follow Craig on Twitter: @TLPCraig

Look, Scholars, it's been a long week for you two favorite educators. So we're phoning it in and are having a movie day in class. Kick back and relax with the pilot of Agua Donkeys. Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

Richard and Gretchen cover some of Rob and Danielle's Quibi favorites, like: Reno 911! and Agua Donkeys. They cover those shows pretty quickly because each show only made 12 episodes! What gives? Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

We highlight two Scholars turning in some extra credit by leaving us voicemails! On a school night, no less! Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

It should go without saying, but Streamiversity, like all academic institutions, has a zero tolerance policy for plagiarism. So why did the NYT think they could scribble the highlights of Rob and Danielle's J. Katz interview on their arm and try to cheat on the test? Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity

J. Katz has gone on the record that his only Quibi regret is that it launched during a pandemic; while that might be a savvy non-answer, it does get to a bigger point. All the networks and streaming services will be running out of new content very quickly as the quarantine continues. Richard and Gretchen make some predictions about which Quibi shows could somehow make this all work. Follow us on T...

Priorities are still pivoting! To Save Quibi (as Rob and Danielle have directed) Richard and Gretchen are inspiring the listeners to actually download the app! Maddie calls in to share her personal progress (the 2nd caller in 2 days)! Follow us on Twitter: @streamiversity
