A Nepo Probie's Unmarketable Debut Episode

Very first episode of the new channel 🤫🤫ProbieU, a film and book critique through structuralist glasses, hosted by ProbieU - Intern at SEEYOO.

Hey everyone, welcome to the very first episode of me—Probie U, an intern at SEEYOO.

Technically, it's the first episode. In the real life? It’s the sixth draft! The first five? Brutally shot dead by the team--(mainly the bosses...).

I’m still stuck somewhere between denial and reluctantly accepting the fact that I,... the so-called Queen of Papers, am rewriting the same subject over and over. For context, I never even rewrote my PhD papers this many times!

Meanwhile, my mind keeps replaying the carnage that was our team’s online call, where my first draft got absolutely CRUCIFIED!!!

Right then—purely to make life easier for my dear audio/video colleagues—I’ve decided to roleplay everyone else.

To respect privacy (and avoid any accusations of hierarchy-wrangling), I’ll be using alphabetical order for the cast list:

B - my boss’s boss.

C - my direct boss,

D - colleague 1.

E - colleague 2.

…and finally, the ever-humble ME – Probie U.

Now, since I’ve never met any of them in person (and my disembodied voices can be a bit dry), I asked, well, gently begged—colleagues D and E to help out by creating avatars for the bosses. You know, just to give their words a bit of personality.

D and E, fueled by a mix of promised deniability and mild curiosity at watching a drama starring “three women,” reluctantly agreed. The result? You’ll see later on.

Plus, they also slipped in two awkward man-avatars to represent themselves. Why? Well, a visual disclaimer, just let the bosses know about their innocence, I guess.

And so, here we are: presenting the unofficial remake of Carnage. (Yes, Carnage is a famous film. If you haven’t seen it, do check it out—it fits the mood perfectly.)

Please watch the video or listen to the podcast for the whole episode …

AT SEEYOO, WE SEE YOU & HELP YOUR WORK TO BE SEEN and TO GET PAID!
