Update on Podcast Intro

Since the poll wouldn't work, I decided to pitch the intros to my friends. I have decided to use...

ALL OF THEM!

...except for two, my friends liked them all! I'll just interchange them...and I created an amazing special edition intro! The more intros the better...ftw!

Twelve at Twelve

Catchy title, no? It sums it up though. Twelve at twelve: Twelve episodes at Twelve in the morning. That's how many and when I wrote the outlines for a years worth of monthly episodes for the podcast. Rest assured, you won't be disappointed! I pushed my creativity to the limit with coming up for a complete series of 6 episodes with spoofed titles of all 6 Star Wars episodes. All dissing the PS3, of course... :P

Here's a list that I wrote of about 16 things that will (hopefully) be covered in a year.

  1. Aspartame
  2. Video Game Violence
  3. The Next-Gen Console War
  4. Generically Geeky Products
  5. Davidheadism
  6. (Classified)
  7. Mac vs PC
  8. C++ vs VB.net vs C#
  9. Super Smash Bros BRAWL
  10. Bionicle
  11. BZPower
  12. BZPrpg
  13. (Classified)
  14. (Classified)
  15. Upcoming Video Game Favs
  16. (Classified)

Didn't expect to get hit with a few (Classified)s, now did you? HA! Good things come to those who wait...and late things from those who procrastinate. The Podcast is on its way; the first episode has been planned and waits now to be recorded. :D

I'm just gonna release the podcast as soon as it's recorded, iTunes artwork working or NOT!

Delay

Apple made this announcement:

"The iTunes Store is currently experiencing issues with adding cover art to newly approved podcasts, or making changes to existing cover art. The problem is being actively investigated, although there is no estimate for when the service will be fixed."

Until the image problem has been fixed, we will hold off putting up the PloogleCast. In the meantime, I'll be planning and recording at least the first episode.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Blame Apple. They deserve it.

Welcome to the PloogleCast

This site is a branch-off of my blog that generated more traffic than I realized it could. Once that the "I won't get a following" wall was broken down in my mind, I decided to up the anty and produce a podcast. The "testcast" can be subscribed to here.

What will we talk about? Basically, anything of interest to me. That covers a wide range of topics. Generic Geek, Computer Programming, Bionicle, Video Games...everything. The general format will follow the following, if you follow.

  • Intro
  • Overview (Episode's Table of Contents)
  • Podcast News
  • Main Topic
  • Guest, if any
  • Additional topics, if any
  • User Q&A (after episode 1)
  • Outro

LogoBogo.com's "Tai" is the one who designed the 200x200 graphic you see prominantly displayed at the top of the screen. RadioDaddy.com has some people with amazing talent that are also helping with my podcast.

May this be the start of a great monthly podcast. With that, let's get started!
