what's a podcast?
a podcast is basically an audio file that is distributed on the internet.
i would love to listen to podcasts, but i don't have an ipod...
that's okay. neither do i. you don't actually need an ipod to listen to them. ipods make it easy to keep track of a lot of them. but you can actually listen to individual shows through your web browser. you probably have already and don't even know it.
how do i do that?
at the beginning of each show, you will see this icon: ![]()
click on it, and you will hear that episode directly through your browser (given that you computer is hooked up to headphones or a speaker.
that rigsby has such a hot voice. i want to hire him to make an audio card for my granny's 80th birthday. how do i get in touch with him?
the best way to get in touch with a host is through the forum. unfortunately, our forum was overrun with so much spam recently that, we are working on developing another format to interact with people.
do you guys have a myspace page?
myspace?! you mean that corporate thing owned by rupert murdoch? no. we definitely don't have one of those.
do you take submissions?
kind of. we started to actually, but that got weird. we're not really setup like a traditional radio show in the sense that our focus isn't in acquiring listeners or advertising dollars. don't get us wrong, we are happy that people are listening. however, i think i can safely say that none of the hosts are interested in doing that full time. we are interested in making music. as such, nobody seems to have much trouble finding music for their shows. each host is responsible for the content of their show. so the short answer is, if you are interested in being on someone's show, the best thing to do would be to contact that host directly. perhaps, through our myspace. (we had a forum for this, but unfortunately it was destroyed by spam).
is there an easy way to access old shows if i'm not into this whole 'podcasting' feed reader thing?
there's a link from our front page to 'archives'. this will lead you to a directory of all the old shows. just click on the show you wanna hear, and it will pull up the web page for that show.
