I was thinking that you guys would hear the tracks that survived. And would make an all-new podcast about it, so to speak. 321 squared. We, the audience, would not hear those tracks, only the new ones: those of you three talking about the tracks we cannot hear.
Offhand, it's the only thing I can think of to breath new life into the missing episode, and re-invent some of the magic that was lost. However, it runs the risk of alienating the audience. There's a good chance we would have little to no idea what was going on, and you guys might also be confused about what was missing.
If you managed to not talk "about" the missing podcast, and just re-visit the ideas mentioned, it may work out, but chances are it'd seem awfully canned, and prepped. The spontaneous charisma would be subdued if you're trying to re-capture it.
However, I do feel it has promise. And I really don't want to just give up on it. It's an interesting idea that may have some quirky angle that could be worked out. And I feel the 321s would be the guys to do it! Maybe get drunk, first.
Another idea that just occurred to me is that Dave could possibly recored a commentary with the other tracks, and fill us in on what was missing, either pausing, or as it goes. This, again, seems highly awkward, though.
All in all, it's probably a lost cause, but there is that small chance that the one path of awesome could be found in the sea of awkward, and you guys could come up with something fantastic. If I think of something clever, I'll let you know.
