FOCAL Podcasts

Post by Gavin Chipper »

Up until now there was a thread for each one but I don't think that's necessarily so I'll make a general thread. Anyway from Paul on Aprerous:
Callum, Thomas and myself are back with a brand new episode of The Countdown podcast on Sun 17th October at 2pm
As well as catching up with all the news, we are joined by not one but two current champs, so join the chat and submit your questions for Adam and Elliott.
Cheers
P

FOCAL = "Finals Of the Co:event Annual League".
How is that relevant to interviews with people involved with Countdown?
Still a dumb idea to use that name. All it does is muddy the waters.

But, on a positive note, this thread is a nice piece of housekeeping. Very tidy.

It's a brand name - I don't think anyone knows/cares what it actually stands for (but maybe would be best to remove the definition from the FOCAL website given the much wider scope - or note it's original definition as a historical point!).

The co-events circuit name being stolen and used for the ZoomDown YouTube channel was never a good idea.
And FOCAL still stands for what it was originally meant to stand for. The best solution here would be for the ZoomDown Youtube to rebrand itself properly.
