Dear Friends - In honor of recording the 25th GM Farcaster episode on November 15, I decided to put together this FAQ to answer all your burning questions about the number one (and only), official unofficial, morning news show about Farcaster. If you have a question not answered here, leave a comment or DM on Farcaster. xx, Adrienne
What is GM Farcaster?
GM Farcaster is a 21 minute morning news show, live streamed three times a week, with co-hosts @NounishProf and me, where we give you all the latest news happening across the Farcaster protocol.
Why is it 21 minutes long?
Prof once read it takes 21 minutes to drink a cup of coffee. So, what better way to start your day than to get a coffee and join us. 21 minutes is just long enough to cover major announcements and launches and to explain the latest memes, and not too long that you can't make time for it.
When is it on?
Our typical schedule is Monday, Wednesday, Friday from 8:30 AM - 8:51 AM EST. If one or both of us have conflicts, we'll either change our schedule or bring in a guest host, like we did for episode 3 with Ivy and episode 6 with ChrisCoCreated.
Register on the lu.ma event page to be notified of any schedule updates, and follow @NounishProf and me, @Adrienne on Farcaster.
How do I watch it?
There are several ways to watch or listen to the show:
As an NFT: Episodes are available to watch or collect from the GM Farcaster Zora page
As a Podcast: Episodes are available as a podcast on Spotify and Apple, and we'll be adding more platforms in the future.
Live stream: The best experience, of course, is joining us for the live stream on Nounish Prof's unlonely channel. There's something magical about being live together. The live chat feature is especially fun.
Why do you call it a morning news show? It's not morning for me.
Yeah, we get it. We're a global community and not everyone is in the same timezone. Prof and I are both in EST timezone so it's morning for us. Our audience is global so if you need to call it a nightly news show, or an afternoon news show, we're OK with that.
Is there really that much going on in Farcaster that you can stream three times a week?
Yes.
Really?
Yes. In just the past few weeks we've had mole, wowow, boosts, warps, q/dau, permissionless, purpleversary, farcaster fall, and more. And this is all with under 5,000 DAU. Imagine how much more there will be to talk about when we hit 50,000 DAU, and then 500,000 DAU, and then 5,000,0000 DAU.
What tech stack are you using?
We use google meet for the video conference, OBS (open source broadcaster software) for screencasting and livestreaming, Unlonely.app to host the live stream and chat with our audience, zora to mint all recorded episodes as collectable NFTs, spotify for video podcast hosting and RSS distribution.
Why do you call it sufficiently decentralized?
GM Farcaster is an experiment in new media, leveraging as much open source, decentralized, permissionless tools as possible. When available we're choosing to use crypto native apps like unloney.app and zora.
We're passionate about decentralization and permissionless innovation. No one asked us to start a news show, and no one needed to give us permission.
Our vision for GM Farcaster is to open source a toolkit or playbook so other passionate Farcasters around the world can host their own shows.
How can I help?
Help us get the word out by sharing GM Farcaster with your friends. Join a live stream or listen to a recording. Rate the podcast or leave a review. And lastly but most importantly, give us feedback about how we can improve.
Do you have Proof of Fun?
Pictures don't lie.

@nounishprof thank you for the warp boost
First time listener and minter! Enjoyed the whole show. Wild I can just watch it on Zora The future is now I guess
Cool right?? We’re onchain first and then add it to web2 after. Thanks for watching! AND minting! 💜
I was told I should check something out, but not sure what I’m supposed to be checking out 🥲 what is gm farcaster?
GM! Even if you don’t know why you’re here we’re glad you’re here! GM Farcaster is a live stream that we then drop as a podcast after. You’ll find the recording above ⤴️ you can watch on Zora (and mint if you like) or the usual podcast places. (today $degen dev @jacek was on 🎩)
Yeah I realise now I’d seen it :) when is it and how often do you run it?
GM Farcaster is awesome!

wanted to watch - is there a recording in unlonely? couldnt find it
This is the recording on @zora You can also find it on Apple, Spotify or YouTube by searching GM Farcaster. And I think @adrienne also dropped those links somewhere around here. https://warpcast.com/nounishprof/0xfb1e2b0a
Happy New Year from me and @nounishprof !! Shout out and big thanks to @wbnns @ivy @pjc @bias for tuning in live and chatting. Everyone else feel free to watch the recording on Zora, Spotify or Apple podcasts, or set your alarm for 8:30 AM ET Wednesday when we'll be back streaming again.
Great screenshot! And was hoping to do our usual s/o but all discombulated lol
I got you
You guys look great on screen! Dynamic energy in that screenshot ✊🏻🌸👏
Was waiting for the Zora video to be up but just realized that Spotify version also includes video so I’m about to watch. So cool to see @adrienne rocking the Nexus Outcasters cover image 😍
It looks so good 🔥🔥🔥
You don’t get to see the unlonely chat in the recording but everyone agreed the photos in this weeks Outcasters were just stunning 🤩
Wow! Congrats on this @adrienne & @nounishprof What a way to kick off the year. 👏 How long did it take to set up the multi platform, broadcast workflow?
Sounds fancy when you put it that way! We started in September with the live stream & recording dropped as an edition on Zora. Then in November (I think) @adrienne added the podcast feed. And a few weeks ago we started the weekly newsletter with the NFT embedded. More to come in the next couple months!
I think the live stream is the hardest part. Pushing the recording to multiple platforms is easier. More info on our tech stack is in our faq here: https://paragraph.xyz/@adrienne/gm-farcaster-faq?referrer=0xaeA4A0dEDb94BA5b2b8ED9477A8a54379C584542 YouTube might be next
reminder set! Happy new year ladies 💓
I wrote a GM Farcaster FAQ to celebrate hitting our 25th episode 🎉 Huge props to visionary/producer/editor/best co-host @nounishprof, + all early supporters including guest hosts @ivy, @chriscocreated, and chat regulars @arjantupan @links @dawufi + so many more https://paragraph.xyz/@adrienne/gm-farcaster-faq
Congrats on 25 episodes!!
LFG!! Congrats you all! 👏👏👏
Thanks wbnns! You’re counted as one of our early supporters. @nounishprof and I talked about cooking up a surprise for y’all at some point. Just don’t know when lol
☕️🤝
This has been such a fun project! And you are a fab cohost & collaborator! Thanks for this FAQ for GM Farcaster @adrienne! Just what we needed!💜
Love to see you two doing this. Appreciate this well-written FAQ, too, as it helps me get at least a little more up to speed on this project. Going to finally watch a bit of your archive this weekend. And congrats on your 25th episode!
TYSM @danicaswanson !! Appreciate you. We had a comical number of technical difficulties in the first few episodes - if you want to laugh at us, choose an early one. If you want to laugh with us, chose a later one lol
Lol perfect way to put it! I still need to do the month 1 “highlight” reel 🤦♀️
I think this is my favorite part of @adrienne’s GM Farcaster FAQ 🤣
Right?!?!? I liked that part too. I thought: "But of *course* there is! There's enough going on to keep a sizable news team busy with daily (or even round-the-clock) coverage." I follow "only" 200 people here, and I struggle to keep up with even a fraction of them as it is!
GM! 🌍 Let's kickstart the day with fresh energy and new crypto goals! 🌟
