Okay! So who wants to help us with this? A bunch of people were talking about it in IRC earlier on, and I got kind of full of beans about the whole idea. I done a little intro kind of thing as some kind of example, I guess, and explanation. I didn't really think it through I guess I just wanted to get some kind of practice. Here is the link to that, anyway:

I'm gonna think about the intro structure and I might come up with some better ideas but this is really just to elaborate on the idea and provide something tangible so the idea seems a little more real. I know the audio isn't perfect but heck we'll work it all out!

This is me asking you to contribute, in any kind of way you decide to, and to send me the file of you doing it. It doesn't take long to put something together and nobody is asking you to be hilarious or professional, just to talk about things you are interested in and try to make it kind of interesting to listen to if you can.

Like I would love to hear a thoughtful talk about how much you love your favourite music, or some perspective on something you have that you think would be interesting or useful. Maybe you have a story about something that happened to you once. Tell us about the time you laughed so hard you pooped your pants.

So basically, if you PM your things to me, I will put them together along with the bits I will do, and once we've got a decent length of stuff, I'll make a topic with the complete podcast in it, easily accessible - I guess on my server space since I am not using it for much right now!

Don't be reticent, my friends, please don't be reticent.

Live large.

good topic.

yeah, i couldn't agree more and please don't feel under pressure to be funny!

Oh, and if you maybe have some idea in your head right now but it is nothing like what I have mentioned and you are wondering if it is a good idea, or if it is suitable then guess what

it's a good idea. do it!!!

i would like to hear the intro but your server isn't responding

that could be to do with the server change. for some people gw is still down, and i don't know how related my server space and gw are because it all belongs to drule. it works for me right now, and i expect it should work for everyone in the next couple of hours if not sooner.

here's the link for the intro on mediafire:  http://www.mediafire.com/?2zgnjhzi2mm

hahaha that was great....

although i cant tell what you mumbled after "upgrade your operating system"

i suggested getting a glass of milk, relaxing and enjoying yourself. those are just three suggestions.

oh god could the podcast just be 10 hours of you speaking

because you have a really great voice! i could listen to you forever

Interview rone rivendale

i'd like to do some music if that's the kind of thing you're looking for, probably just a cover of something. might help break up the talking

music (ESPECIALLY original music) is highly encouraged! that's the sort of stuff we're looking for.

i mean by no means is this going to be music based at all, please understand that, but music segments are encouraged, with original/GW music segments being highly encouraged!!! so yes!

I tried to record a segment but apparently my laptop microphone isn't working anymore. I accidentally pulled out a lot of wires the other day. the segment was going to be an intro to this leaked song, so I guess someone else could record what I'd say in the intro and then play the song. but then again it feels kind of stupid if it's not me saying it, so you could just make up your own intro to the song or find your own song to introduce.

what is the song?

i'm gonna ask some people individually if they can/want to do anything for this. i'd rather get this particular thing done sooner.

bilar

my submission is nearly finished! i just need to do some editing to make it sound better, but that should be done very soon!

well uh obviously this is a no-pressure stuff but i'm not gonna make one until next week or so. my parents need me at the summer cottage.
