You may be wondering how we plan shows. We have never come up with a formal process, but basically both Darren and I have total veto power. Historically, it works as such. In a typical month, I come up with 20 ideas and Darren vetoes 18 of them. Darren comes up with 5 ideas and I veto 3 of them. We both end up contributing 2 ideas. (NOTE: I have done no research on these figures and they are completely made up. I will send this to Darren before posting this, so he can provide alternate figures if he wishes)
Now, part of me thinks this is a bad process that could lead to complete paralysis and nothing happening, but in actuality it has worked out pretty great. If we tried to use every idea, the show would be constantly changing and never become something solid like our Themes Show. There is definitely a part of me that likes the idea of having a constantly changing show, but I can see how what we have now is better. Now to be clear, I am not complaining about Darren vetoing 90% of my ideas. If anything, I think we need more vetoing. I legitimately think it is a cool process and decided to write about it this month since I had the word veto scribbled down in my list of possible blog ideas. Recently however I have noticed two possible flaws in this process.
