Organize a Meetup
Want to hang out with local MaxFunsters, talk about podcasts, and make new friends? You should host a meetup! The process is super simple:
- Pick a time and a public location near you. Anywhere that can host a small group works! Popular locations include bars, breweries, restaurants, coffee shops, public parks, and game stores. Most events start around 6:00pm local time, but you can do earlier or later!
- Tell us about it. Fill out the form below with your location, venue name, the time your meetup is starting, and any other information you want to include. We’ll add your meetup to the list above so other MaxFunsters can find it! If you’d like to make a Facebook event or anything like that to organize information, feel free to link us to that, too.
- Host the meetup! After that, all you’ve gotta do is show up and have fun with other people who love podcasts as much as you do.
And, an optional bonus step: if you’re interested in printable signs and name tags for your meetup, check out the official Meetup Day Kit!
If you have any questions or if you run into trouble filling out the form, email cn@maximumfun.org and they’ll be happy to help you out.
