My guestimate is that each show would be around an hour. With regards to how they work. All you'd need to do is talk in a skype call with myself and the other hosts. I handle recording post production editing and getting up onto iTunes.

I wasn't sure where exactly to put this, so I hope this is appropriate. I apologize in advance if it isn't. I was thinking. They're really aren't any current Neopet podcasts are there? It isn't like the material is lacking? There is plenty going on. So why no podcast? So I thought I would give it a shot. I know its probably a big request to make (especially since I'm an unknown on the forum, though no stranger to the actual site), but I was wondering if there is anyone who would be interested in co-hosting a Neopets based podcast. I have a fair amount of podcast experience from my time working with Mugglenet. So I have a reasonable amount of know-how regarding recording and editing. Please let me know via reply to this topic, or email. I believe my email is visible on my account profile.

 

-You need to have the program Skype (free), and a working microphone with fair sound quality.

 

-You must be ready for each show before it starts and must be able to attend each show (obviously there can arise circumstances which would change that second part, but if you're going to be a host you need to be able to commit to recording each week you are able to).

 

-You must be able to record in a room with little to no background noise. We can't control all sounds that reach our microphones, but recording in a room with your screaming four year old brother is asking for trouble.

 

-Once we begin each show you MUST stay until the end.

Sure thing JumpingBeans. Send me the information either to my email or neomail me. If I can't get dedicated hosts in time, I can always do the first broadcast myself. It may be a little dry, but its still a start.

 

Bloom: My experience with podcasts is that they function much better when presented as something of a talk show. We have information and topics each week, but its a kind of round table disscusion. So it wouldn't be each person recording on their own. It would be all hosts talking on the same call, and I'll use my equipment to record it and later edit it.

Tyler, skype is free to download and you don't need a webcam you need a microphone. The two are different.

Jumpingbeans: I'd love to have that kind of assistance. If you could gather information each week, or (if you have the know how) edit the site for the podcast, which will inevitably be made.

 

CAV the Viper: It would be more than just a voice you know, right? I'm sure you already are, but just in case. You would need to be up to date on the happenings in Neopia, in order to talk informatively, and of course you'd need to have a good attitude. I'm sure you posses these qualities already, I'm just covering my bases.

 

Everyone Else: I didn't mention this in the original post (carelessness), but if you want to be a host there are somethings you need to know first.
