Editing Show Me Your News

'''Show me your News''' (abbrieviated as''' SMYN''') is a weekly podcast created by [[SWF]] member Youko.  It was created on July 7, 2007 and was formerly known as The Dojo, but was changed due to confusion with the website [[Smash Bros. Dojo]], also called The Dojo. The new name was named after Youko's main, [[Captain Falcon (SSBM)|Captain Falcon]] and his trademark [[taunt]] "Show me your Moves!", and was first coined by Fawriel.

Every Sunday, Youko goes through "The week that was", recounting all the updates on The Dojo website in a detailed and thought out podcast. Each episode also included other segments, usually sent in by other SWF members.

As of September 30, 2007, SMYN is in its second season, which includes newer segments in place of some of the previous segments.

Included in every episode, Youko chooses three of the updates in which he will talk in detail about.  In the first part, he'll quickly state his opinion on those that "didn't make the cut."  Then he'll dive into the three main updates of the week, in which he'll state both his own and SWF members' opinions on the updates.

 

 

 

Sent in by members of SWF in either audio or text format, this is a chance for the members to try out their own opinion on what [[SSBB]] already has or really needs. This is a popular segment, as many members have sent in their opinion on very different matters, from the [[Subspace Emissary]] to third-party characters.

 

 

===Mailtime===  

 

Debuting on August 6th, 2007, Youko reads questions sent to him from SWF members. These questions can be about anything members wish to ask the host about. After he reads and answers a few questions, Youko will ask a couple questions of the audience to be answered in the thread - this concept, generated by SWF member Somasu, helps the fans learn more about Youko and Youko learn more about the fans.

 

 

=== Who's In ===

Once a bi-weekly segment by SWF member Sariku_Uchiha, it was cancelled when Season 2 started.  In this segment, Sariku would give his personal views on characters other members wanted him to review.  Although he was one of the first people to provide a voice to the podcast, he was criticized for providing a more "personal" view and giving reviews that sounded like he didn't study up on the subject, including the infamous "Wolf killed James McCloud."  However, his last review, featuring Megaman, Captian Olimar, and Geno, was well received by members of SWF.

 

=== Show Yourself ===

 

Once a bi-weekly segment by members of SWF, it was cancelled when Season 2 started.  This segment asked for members of SWF to send in audio submissions of them talking about themselves.  They could choose what they would talk about.  Most members would choose who they [[Main character|mained]] in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]] and when they started to play Smash, but some would also branch into other fields, like recreational activities.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

'''The Youko Melee Sound Effect Contest''': First aired on August 19, 2007, Youko gives five different [[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]] sound effects that members of SWF can try and guess.  Winners are announced in the next episode.

 

 

 

 

 

'''Youko's Roomate Quote of the Week''': First aired on September 23, 2007, Youko's roomate at the University of Michigan gives us a single quote to all SWF members.  This quote does not reflect the ideas of Youko himself.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When Youko started posting in the SmashBlog, more people began listening to his podcasts. But instead of enjoying it, they formally stated that Youko is just saying what is on the [[Smash Bros. Dojo]], in audio format. Youko defended himself to those statements, but the whole argument can be found in *[http://smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=116374 here].
