Debugged Is Almost Live: Pre-Production, Pandemonium, and a Whole Lot of Green

If you’ve been wondering what kind of show lives at the intersection of firewalls, faith, punchlines, and police reports… you’re about to find out.

Debugged with Patrick Bass is in its final stages of pre-production, and around here that means two things:

  1. The coffee budget is out of control, and

  2. We’re dangerously close to hitting “Record” for real.


Building the Guest List: No Tourists, Only Insiders

Right now, the Debugged and ElectraCast teams are deep in guest orchestration mode.

We’re lining up:

  • Cybersecurity pros who’ve actually been in the incident war room at 3:17 a.m.

  • Former bad actors who’ve retired from the dark side and are finally ready to talk.

  • Theologians and philosophers who can speak to the “why” behind human behavior when the code goes sideways.

  • Detectives, first responders, and investigators with stories that never made it into the case file.

  • Comics and smart-mouthed commentators who can laugh at the madness without trivializing it.

We’re curating a roster of people who have lived the stories, not just read about them on page two of a threat intel report.


Fine-Tuning the Format: Controlled Chaos by Design

We’re also in the lab tightening the show format so every episode feels like a ride, not a ramble.

Behind the scenes, we’re:

  • Stress-testing segments that mix serious analysis with “did they really just say that?” moments.

  • Balancing deep-dive interviews with faster, high-energy bits so you get signal, not just noise.

  • Dialing in a structure where tech, spirituality, comedy, and crime all show up—without the episode feeling like four different shows duct-taped together.

Think of it as a well-architected security stack: different layers, different functions, one coherent system. The goal is simple—each episode should intrigue, entertain, and inform without ever feeling like homework.


Months in the Making

This isn’t a “we bought a mic and started talking” operation.

The Debugged and ElectraCast teams have been working for months to engineer something distinct:

  • A sound that feels modern and cinematic, not canned.

  • A tone that can pivot from serious to sarcastic without losing respect for the real-world stakes.

  • A brand that says: “We understand the chaos of modern life, and we’re going to walk you through it—with brains and a few well-placed burns.”

We’ve been building out artwork, green-lit headshots, theme music, segment frameworks, and a pipeline of stories that go way past the headlines.


What You Can Expect

Once we go live, expect conversations that:

  • Break down major breaches and bizarre scams without drowning you in jargon.

  • Explore moral and spiritual angles of tech, crime, and consequence that most shows won’t touch.

  • Lean into humor—not to minimize the stakes, but to make the hard stuff easier to process.

If you’re into digital forensics, divine paradoxes, or dark humor, you’re going to feel right at home.
