Skypestravaganza, part deaux





More skypestravaganza fun! This week I roll out part 2 of my hundredth show celebration. We talk TV (yes, you read that right), audio commentary for movies, MST3K, Macintosh accessibility, blindcasting (or not), Shelly's "how I learned to use the Mac" story, more accessibility stuff, Frank and other podcast guests, weather in multiple countries, The Rolling Stones in Zilker Park, football/rugby/soccer/Aussie rules, you say Brisbin, I say Brisbane, the German name game, zed, magazine writing, evil iTunes 7, and miscelaneous chatting.


We begin with greetings from Joe & Lisa of Cheap Date, and end with Steve from The Holmesgrown Podcast

Show 100: the skypestravaganza, part 1





I invited friends and fellow podcasters to join me for a marathon skype conversation. People drifted on and off the call for several hours. We had a great time; so much so that I have to save half of it for next week.

This week we anticipate Podcast Expo (this episode was recorded a week before the expo), talk about the friends we've made in podcasting, moving, bad customer service, iTunes 7, Podshow, DragonCon, movies, and much much more.

And of course, big thanks to Bruce Murray from The Zedcast, and Slau for their hundredth show good wishes.

My 15 nanoseconds of fame...in San Bernardino

This article appeared in Saturday's San Bernardino County Sun. I'm not in it! But if you click the Photo Gallery link, and then look at page 5, you'll see me and the rest of the iPod/iTunes panel from the LA Podcasters/iProng booth at Podcast Expo. The photo did appear in the paper last Saturday. By the way, this panel will be posted on the iProng Radio feed later today.
