Re: Podcast idea
Oh yeah, I forgot all about this, got super busy with "life". LMK what you come up with though and if there's anything I can do to help.
See, that one's a camcorder, that one's a camera, that one's a phone, and they're doing "Speak no evil, See no evil, Hear no evil", get it?

Re: Podcast idea
We had a successful three or four hour Bullshitting Session last night, so. 86 is also interested, I spoke with him today. Once we have something stable set up (format, etc.) we'll probably make a more informed post. Right now we're just kind of winging it.
Re: Podcast idea
Ok, I know I'm gonna sound really ignernt with this, but... what's a podcast? And what would I need to have to be able to join?

Re: Podcast idea
A podcast is just, like, an internet radio show. The term came because people would make a "broadcast" in the form of easy-to-download MP3s (originally, I think, from iTunes) that would be easily listened to on an iPod or other MP3 player. It's pretty much expanded now to mean basically any Internet Radio Show. Which is what this would be! (For a really good example of this, whose model I'm just kind of ganking entirely, check out What's On Joe Mind which is this really good GI Joe podcast I've been listening to.)Shockwave wrote:Ok, I know I'm gonna sound really ignernt with this, but... what's a podcast?

Anyway, all you'll need is a microphone you can hook up to your computer (I think you might also be able to get an adapter to use your existing Xbox 360 headset, not sure) and Skype (which is free). We still dunno how we're gonna record it but yeah.
Hey guys: How's tonight sound? 86 doesn't have work tonight (his Tuesday morning) so he said he'd be able to get in on it too.
Re: Podcast idea
There's no way I'm getting a mic in the next 24 hours, but I've got my eyes on this idea!

Re: Podcast idea
Well that's just fine! We're not officially starting it yet. We're just...I dunno, BSing around and stuff. Working on a format I guess is tonight's goal. And also deciding on how we're gonna record; I have Audacity but can't just record the audio out on it. I'm doing some research as we speak.
Also, I totally want to use Soundcloud for this thing, because Soundcloud is pretty awesome and also Bandcamp isn't really suited for this kind of thing.

Re: Podcast idea
Yeah, I'd be down. Let's see how things go with more, and more varied people. Should be inneresting.
Gomess, get Skype. Your computer has a built-in microphone, surely?

You're talking to the guy who's only just got a Torrent thingy. I'll look it over tonight, but I'm not sure what I'm lookng for other than the word "mic". And presumably it'd suck in quality, so I'd end up buying an external one anyways.

Re: Podcast idea
Oh yeah! I forgot that many laptops these days come with mics built-in.
Usually they're in your monitor, up on top. You can pop in and see if you've got one, and if not, well go get one!
EDIT: Hey where's Dom? We talked about getting Dom up in this, didn't we? And if Sparky was at all interested, I'd love to see him in it just because he tends to have the most differing viewpoints of all of us.

Re: Podcast idea
Dom and Sparky need their own segment.
