Would you watch live?

Would you watch live?

I may of found another (cheaper) way to live stream my podcast interviews.  This means we can start soon than later vs. hitting the goal. 

Most importantly - would you enjoy watching the interviews live?  You could ask questions and get the content weeks (or months) in advance.

Before I dig too deep, I'm trying to gauge if you all would see this as a benefit.
