This Just In:
I'm gonna be an Internet Celebrity again! Ryan and I are going to start doing a podcast some time in January, which can eventually be found at QuackRadio.org. Isn't that neat?

YES!

Oh, I knew you both when. I'll be here, in NC, wallowing in obscurity....

You can be a guest on our show some time. Just get Skype and a good headset. Then you won't be wholly obscure....

We even have a "Coming Soon..." message up now. We're movin' along!

Unfortunately, our collective lack of prowess at Adobe Illustrator is preventing us from making a clever icon to use for promotional purposes. We need an artistic-type person to use as Employee #3.

This is awesome. Will it be a video podcast, or like TWIT, with a radio format?

So, if your friends have Skype, you'll possibly let them be a guest? Don't let Tim..... he's just opinionated. But, I seriously can't wait.

Nah, it's gonna be a radio-style podcast like TWiT. We even followed several of Leo's suggestions on how to set it up.
Since Ryan and I are in different states, a video podcast would be a little difficult and would probably require a higher budget. This way, we can just use sound effects and canned laughter, and do the whole thing over Skype. As to you being a guest, we might could swing some sort of panel discussion thing at some point or something similar. We want to actually have a point to bringing out friends on instead of just shoving you into the spotlight and expecting you to talk about stuff you're not familiar with. Like giant babies.

Well, I actually don't have Skype, although I've considered getting it for CoH purposes after the new year.... I was mainly just looking for a way to poke fun at Tim.

But, if I got Skype, I'd love to possibly be considered for a panel discussion-type podcast as a guest.

Interesting idea. But, you don't know that I majored in Giant Babies in Comm. College.

Skype is cheap-as-free. You just need a headset with a microphone and a decent-speed Internet connection. TeamSpeak works better for large-scale voice communication (Skype is limited to 5 people in one conversation), but there's inherent lag between voices, whereas Skype is full-duplex and works much more like a telephone.

But, you majored in Giant Babies? Then have we got a podcast for you! Ours!
