RAWDEADFISH

in this episode i welcome myself back to podcasting, i improve the process of recording a bit, and i feel like i am getting into the grove, even though it is only my 3rd one…

the topic of this show was a hard one to decide, because i had several ideas that were all sensitive to the time of year, but i settled on “speeding ticket” for reasons that are discussed in the show. feel free to go to del.icio.us and type in speeding ticket and follow along with the links.
here are the show links:

10. link is a bust
… so let’s go up in the list to find something interesting to take it’s place…
18. phantomplate: license plate spray and covers to defeat red light and speed cameras
16. how to get out of a speeding ticket | slackermoney
12. fyst - fight your speeding tickets page
9. duplicate of #1

i also talked about a couple interesting sites at the beginning of the podcast that you should visit.

2. dr horrible’s sing-along blog - a josh whedon writers strike 3 episode project for the internet.

this weekend i will be putting together rawdeadcast #3. i have several topics that i could cover, but i’m not sure which one to hit first: commemorate my first speeding ticket since i start the new job, the kids are outta school, and interns.  anyone have an opinion before i begin this thing?

update, 4:25pm est: never mind. I have chosen to use speeding ticket as my theme because my wife just got one, on her way out of town. this was her first ticket ever for anything. it was bound to happen sometime.

ok wow. after pushing podcast #2 out, i was really proud of myself for the accomplishment, and it sounded good… of course, i only listened to the beginning to make sure the sound level was decent. once i got into the car the following morning to test the sound levels did i list a bit further into the show and notice that my cut/paste went haywire and overlaid a bunch of the talk i had with my daughter! and i didn’t have an original to go back to. so, i painstakingly went through all of the audio and cleaned it up as best i could. instead of just canning the whole thing, i cut out the bad sections. so, you may notice a couple discontinuities. oh well, that’s beginner podcasting for ya.

and thank you all for the encouraging comments (aka. getting laughed at on friday during thai lunch by my friends, you’re the best). i will keep this going just for you, danni!

well, i did it. i put together a second podcast. this one differs in format and content from the first (from well over a year ago). my goal is start putting out a podcast every other week and hope to gradually tighten it up into a weekly podcast. but, first things first! this show is just my 4 yr old daughter and i talking about the day we had back in feb of 2008. it is raw, but i learned a lot about the equipment that i have and how to make is sound pretty good. i still need to get mic filters, but i’m not spending another dime on this thing hobby until i get some regularity. so, i hope at least one person enjoys it, but more importantly, i hope a bunch of you comment.

update (6/22): after all of those complaints from my faithful listeners, a new audio file has been pushed upto correct a few of the problems that people found in the original. enjoy the new version.

this is the first episode of the raw dead podcast.� the point of this show is to go for a ride on delicious. i don’t know how many of you really surf the net.� with so little time left for ourselves, we (or i) tend to make the most of every minute or try to accomplish something during every moment. so i think it is time to just sit back and surf, and look for some new websites out in that vast connected pile of tubes called the internet.

so my objective is to hit delicious, type in a word or phrase, and review the top 10 results.� let’s see how it goes… as well as how interesting it may be…� wish me luck!
