I'd like to make an announcement.
I'm going to be working on a podcast. For those of you who don't know, a "podcast" is the current online fad. It's basically Internet radio. Podcasts are used for anything from personal audio blogs to shows about specific topics to music programs like the radio.
I'm going to be working with Erik Blythe on his podcast over at Movie Survival Guide (www.moviesurvivalguide.com). This podcast was previously at Random Chatter (www.randomchatter.com) but recently was moved there. Erik was only able to record a few shows at this new domain, however, before he got to be too busy to update. The show went on hiatus, and he put out a call for volunteers to help out with the podcast. I happened to hear his call, and sent him an email volunteering. This was a few weeks ago.
Honestly, I didn't think anything would come of it. But Erik looked at my movie reviews site and this blog, and decided I'd be perfect for the show. I'm going to be in charge of recording "microcasts." Basically, I'll be doing brief 3-10 minute movie reviews which will be separate from Erik's main podcast, though at times he might include them in his main show. I don't know who else he's found to help out, or what they'll be doing. All I know is that that's my job. It's also possible that in the future I'll participate in some discussion-type podcasts or other things. We'll see.
I'm excited. Erik also records the official Star Wars podcast of TheForce.Net (theforce.net), which is probably the most popular Star Wars network on the Internet. Tons of people visit it every day - we're talking thousands. And it's possible that a great deal of those visitors listen to Erik's Star Wars podcast. Which means it's possible that a great deal of that group of people in turn have found or will find the Movie Survival Guide podcast.
My reviews could be heard by dozens of people. They could also be heard by hundreds. No pressure.
I'm psyched. Not to mention as nervous as a snail about to cross a freeway.
I'm going to be creating a new board specifically related to the podcasts I work on. Each time a new one goes online I'll create a thread for it with information about it and how to download it. You will all then be able to comment on each podcast here on this forum, if you so desire. Alternatively, you can send me an email with any thoughts and auggestions to andrew@moviesurvivalguide.com.
The podcast (and therefore the new board) will be launched this weekend. Just thought you'd like to know what the deal was.
