Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

I've been thinking about starting a GameTavern podcast again. If I could get some feedback as to who would be interested in being on the podcast and/or listening to it that would be great.

- Hosts: Aladuf, Bond, Dyne, GameMaster

- Show Notes

Count me in!

I was going to resurrect that old thread a few days ago just to be annoying :p

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

Could be interesting I suppose. Do we have any examples of old podcasts that I could listen to?

I would participate (and I may) but I've attempted a "podcast" thing before and I really don't add much to the conversations.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

What would it be about really though?

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

I was wondering this too.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

If I had my way.
About how awful Canada is.
How we should move to ban Flunkie.

And me being a role model for well every generation.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

It'd be a podcast about NOTHING!

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

Alright; I'd be interested in talking still. :D

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

I'd probably listen to it just to see hear what the hell you would talk about...

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

I would be down for talking....but I don't know how to go about that

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

I think what most podcast do is use Skype?
I could be mistaken.

But I think its like a conference call on your computer or something.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

Hmmm, this sounds really interesting. I think it's a great idea.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

Yeah, we'd probably use Skype or iChat.

What do you think the podcast should be about?

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

The weekly gaming nights. Like a recap of the events of the game.

And remember those interviews with forum members we used to have? Those too could be podcasted..

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

I say.. shoot from the hip.

Really, it would be interesting to see what comes from GTers just shooting the breeze with each other. Maybe have some broad topics. Some random threads and reactions.

I can put together the first episode if people are interested in doing.

But this is the 3rd or 4th time we are attempting it.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

They're called Skypecasts. I figure Skype would be the best to use since it's available for Mac, Windows, and Linux.

I could record it.

Those of us who have been gaming together lately could talk about that.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

Really that's the best chance without making the podcast boring. Chemistry might factor in to how well it goes too.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

True, but chemistry or not, it'll be a few guys just talking into their computers I assume. So that may hinder things. *shrugs* I'm not too sure since I've never done this before.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

Yeah, I don't think structure's really that important. If we did make a plan I doubt we'd end up following it anyway.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

I'm interested in recording and/or participating.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

A DrunkCast would have to happen at some point....I think that would have either brilliant or terrible results. You never know.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

I think the Canadian Coalition is thinking of something along those lines Germy

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

I would SO be up for that. Just because I'm the best newcomer.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

I DISAGREE flunkie

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

birdman just scares me know. With his lazy eyed pedophilic fascination

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

:lolz: Everyone wants to participate... It's gonna end up being all of us just talking to each other.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

What lazy ey


OH GOD! WHAT HAS BEEN SEEN CANNOT BE UNSEEN!

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

Yup, lol.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

Any problem with that?

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

Nope, it's actually a cool idea.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

It'd kinda take away from the whole "podcast" thing though, eh? I mean, if everyone participates, who's going to want to subscribe and download and listen to themselves talk? :p

Edit: Other than BaB.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

Yeah, it completely takes away from the point of it being a "podcast" but it would be cool.

And my god, you are catching on! BaB would totally do that, and he would totally admit to doing that!

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

Alright, let's do this. The first three people that replied were Aladuf, GameMaster, and Dyne. I'm really not sure if Skype could handle more than four people anyway and maintain a decent quality of audio.

Let's try recording our first pilot next Tuesday night. What time works for everyone?

I'm going to work on some kind of outline just so that it isn't a total bust.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

Sweet, tuesday works great. MGS4 hasn't come out yet. :D

I'm available from 6:30pm PST all the way up to 12pm PST. Just let me know when.

I'll have to install Skype again. Wait, do you have a mac Aladuf? We could use iChat, couldn't we?

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

Skype claims to be able host conference calls with up to 10 people at a time so I think we should be okay.

We can do some testing beforehand if you like.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

I don't have a Mac.. and how does one go about getting this "skype" you speak of?

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

http://www.skype.com/

Also, does everyone have headsets?

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

I agree, lets test it out before hand with a few folks then we can decide if more can join or not.

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

Re: Podcast: Exploratory Committee
 

hmm... I think so.
