Live events are an amazing way to connect between users, get to know more about each others, ear our voices, have fun and simply hangout!

The Live hangout - Your story and culture are live show run each Thursday on the Whaleshares Discord server. The goal of those event is to give the opportunity to any Whaleshares member to highlight one post, talk about it and leave the community interact with voice and comments.

Hangout time, place and frequency


Almost each Thursday the event take place from 21h to 23h in a central European time zone, that’s: 15h to 17h for New York - 16h to 18h for Caracas - 20h to 22h UTC time.

The event is hosted on the official Whaleshares Discord server in #the-hangouts channel.

Each week I may announce on my blog the event and also if the event is cancelled due to real life stuff. I’ll get organized, so this should not much append. If I get a last minute contertime then I will announce it directly on Discord.

During the event, each post will be in the spotlight for 5 to 10 minutes, that’s the time for the author to talk about his post and for the community to ask any question. I’ll lead the show for about 1h15 then we may have free community talk for about 45 minutes.

Hangout posts topics


Those events are focused on your life, thoughts, dreams and local culture. I love those posts that give an inside of someone life, it can be text, poem, photography or a even a song. I also love to know more about local culture, how is life for you in your country, your city, your village, food, music, local customs, etc. I love posts written from the heart, the belly and the soul! YOUR story.

I will not promote posts talking about: religions, politics, business, contests or cryptocurrencies.

Hangout rules


They are not much rules right now, I may adjust them in time and depending of the experiences and community feedbacks.

  • Respect each members, no personal attack will be tolerated
  • Please stay active at least 45 min to support others posts
  • When someone talks, please listen, your turn will come later

Featured posts


The featured posts during the show will all be listed in a post on my blog a few days later. This will let me and the community come back to them, comment and up-shares if not already done (due to missing time or low MANA).

Before attempting the show, don’t forget to prepare your link to your post.

Hangout goodies


During the live show I’ll be randomly giving away some WISDOM tokens. Those token are a community effort to support the community spirit and @unity on Whaleshares.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions


Do I need a headphone ?

Yes, that’s the minimum for a live event, otherwise you will miss most of the author answer and community interactions.

Do I need a microphone ?

Yes it would be nice, but not mandatory to participate. You can use your phone as microphone and/or a computer to write in #the-hangouts text channel.

I would love to present a post, but I have no working microphone, can I ?

Yes, at some point you will get picked and if you don’t have a working microphone you can still present it in the text channel, but please keep in mind you will have 5 to 10 min to promote and talk about it.
