my friend and i were doing a podcast last year. the biggest challenge was ‘scripting’ out the episodes and the editing. not saying it won’t be less work than blogging but…

my only suggestion is to keep them short.

good luck.

Laziness, as I like to say, is the father of efficiency :)

Definitely audio. Would want to keep it as simple as possible since the idea is to make it less work than daily blogging! :-)

Audio or video? Either way we can make it happen. I was thinking of a related idea I wanted to run by you anyway.

Funny, we’ve been planning to get Skype and a webcam so my wife can talk to her brother in Spain more often.

Hmmm…

Jon, can PCS host a podcast?

@Jon: Don’t tempt me! Grey’s Anatomy is finally back to new episodes tonight; maybe Allan Heinberg will be the credited writer on an episode again sometime soon and he’ll blog about it and I can blog about his blogging!

Or maybe they’ll mention that George reads comic books again, and he’ll talk about how much they suck now compared to when he was a kid.

Yeah, maybe I will blog about it…

@Erech: If I ever do a podcast, I’ll have to figure out how to have you call in.

Maybe you should blog about Grays Anatomy ^^;

In other news, as I’m posting this, I see a Google Adsense ad on the sidebar which says: “Are You Gay? TheGayQuiz.com”. Which, according to Dylan, means Google knows PCS uses hot pink. Or perhaps it knows that Gay = Lame, but doesn’t know that’s the wrong kind of gay.

I kinda wanna do a comic podcast too. I have been on one over at my friends video game site, but it’s got no format and it’s just random stuff.

But yeah a cool comic podcast would be fun.

And who says you gotta read marvel and dc? Boo.

maybe if voiceblogging were more of an option…

My buddy Dan (I should trademark that name for him) has been trying to get me to do a podcast for over a year now, but I have neither the time nor inclination to do such a thing, partly because I’d feel obligated to read some of the Marvel/DC crap I tend to skip over these days. At the same time, a weekly podcast is probably more fun and less overall work than blogging 3-5 times week…

And yeah, notes on your sketches have been on my to-do list for a few weeks now. Everything that takes any serious thought has been pushed back, but I’m hoping to go over them this weekend. Really!

Good and bad news. I enjoyr reading your take on things, especially the crazier aspects of comics (speaking of, there is a pretty good article in the latest BITCH about the women in comics – and refridgerators :) ) that drive me nuts too.

But breaks are good. I am on an indefinite one. I would blog more if the actual of it was less of a pain in the ass – maybe if voiceblogging were more of an option – but in the real world we just call that “talking to people”.

At least now though, you can get around to sending me the notes on our script so I can finish that thing sometime this summer HINT. HINT.
