I'll probably chime in.
First of all, a huge thank you to Vik, who came up with the idea of what I should do (if not in an underground casino). It's a great idea. Moreover, it's feasible. And it's in a show format.
The suggestion to record a game from both sides and then stream it online and add commentary solves some technical difficulties, but it also means it's no longer the feeling of a live broadcast. Personally, I'm in favor of a completely live broadcast. The internet is now, knock on wood, stable and high-speed, the computer is powerful enough, and we've already had experience with live broadcasts, and, according to rumors, some people liked the nonsense I was talking about. But, as someone rightly pointed out here, one turn is transmitted, and the other is somewhere else. It takes time. If it takes five minutes, that's not a big deal; I'll find something to entertain the audience with. But if it takes 10 minutes or more, that's not good. But the players in the match will know in advance that they are playing for an audience, so they will definitely be prepared. So this problem can be solved through agreement.
For my part, I am ready to provide all possible assistance to this endeavor. But I want to emphasize again: this is actually very difficult. Especially the conversational genre, when there is no specific rehearsed or even written script. Therefore, Vik is absolutely right (I'm paraphrasing his words), that this work should be paid.
In principle, after some preparation and consultations, I could host broadcasts not only of Warlock's Tower but also of SoD (by the way, SoD has a wider range of random events and a larger field for banter).
And if we get 100-200 people on a weekend day who are willing to spend 50 rubles (and we can come up with several payment options) to watch and listen (what I personally like as a hypothetical viewer is that you can listen in the background and turn on the image when something really interesting starts to happen), then this idea has every chance of success. Or we can do it in a subscription mode. In short, if there is demand, there will be a supply.
Of course, on the one hand, I would like donations to be voluntary. But some minimum threshold must be set, since at least four people will be working: a payment receiver, a commentator, and two players (and, in essence, each will be working a full day).
