| 0:00.0 | Hi everyone, welcome to Bad on Paper Podcast. This is episode 11 and I'm your host, Becca |
| 0:25.5 | Freeman and I'm Grace Atwood. So we have a new name. Yes, we have a new name and we're both a little bit |
| 0:34.5 | honestly we're both feeling a little bit blue right now because we had to change the name. Yeah, |
| 0:40.1 | we're bummed. I'm bummed and I'm frustrated. Same. I guess before we get into it, should we tell people |
| 0:47.7 | what happened? Yeah. So there is another young adulting podcast and when we researched |
| 0:55.4 | ideas and names for this podcast, we basically looked at a few different things. We wanted to see if |
| 1:01.0 | we could get the Instagram handle. We wanted to see if we could get the URL and we were able to |
| 1:07.6 | and this other podcast wasn't even on our radar. Yeah, so probably at like the 11th hour when we were |
| 1:13.4 | getting ready to upload our podcast to iTunes, we noticed them and we figured that Apple would |
| 1:19.8 | reject our podcast if there was anything wrong with two podcasts having the same name. We'd already |
| 1:25.1 | plunk down money on our branding. We'd already bought the URL, set up our website, everything like that. So |
| 1:31.5 | we left it to iTunes and when we got approved, we figured, hey, this must be fine. There's actually |
| 1:38.2 | a bunch of podcasts in the iTunes store that have the same name. Yeah, like J-Train, there's like |
| 1:43.1 | 10 of those. Yeah, and then there's a bunch of podcasts that are called outside of the box. |
| 1:48.3 | Like there's so many examples. So I don't know, I was just like, oh, this just must be a thing. |
| 1:53.2 | It's not a big deal. But apparently it was. So we got to see some desist. Yep. And Apple was |
| 2:01.0 | threatening to take down our content. And we got kind of like, I don't know the exact right word |
| 2:08.1 | to use, but like a spat with a little legal battle. Yeah, the host of the other podcast, which is |
| 2:13.4 | super frustrating. I mean, first of all, because we started this to create a community and to create |
| 2:22.3 | content like not to be bogged down and like, I've talked to a bunch of lawyers and like, this is |
| 2:29.1 | not what we signed up for. This was supposed to be our fun project. If anyone's keeping track, I think |
| 2:34.0 | we're up to having made $40 from this, of which we've invested all of that into snacks. So |
