I listen to a lot of podcasts and I was currious if anyone would be willing to do a Head-fi podcast. It would be awsome to talk about audio equiptment and have reviews. Call in questions or whatever. Let me know what you guys thin or if someone would be willing.

I think head-fi sitcom would generate more buzz

What about the Soundtrack to the film? How long a "discussion" would we need to nail down what tracks should be included. Then we can happily discuss what source/amp/headphones the album would sound best on.

Yep, I've already received my certified letter containing a restraining order preventing me from calling in. It's nice to know that Jude is always on top of the little things.

LOL. Oi, if you're expecting that stentorian movie-trailer-guy voice, you're going to be sorely disappointed. My voice is somewhere between, oh, say, Mike Tyson and James Earl Jones.

And if you're expecting super-polished, radio-quality production, you're going to be sorely disappointed again. It's going to be one man, one mediocre microphone, phone calls with industry folks from time to time, some opening music that I'll probably pay a paltry sum to license as the opening bit, and some practice you're going to have to suffer through before we (hopefully) get decent about the whole thing.

The target length per Podcast will likely be 15 minutes to 30 minutes (trust me, you couldn't handle my manly-man voice for more than that at a stretch

).

Why am I going to do this? Because I carry around and listen to Podcasts frequently, and enjoy several of them--they provide me with information and entertainment on very specific subject matter that I'm very interested in, and would not get to listen to otherwise (stuff they'd never cover on the radio). Additionally, I love to write reviews, but have little time to do so. Due mostly to work responsibilities, I am notorious for falling way behind on reviews (like the one I'm going to finally be posting on the AKG Hearo 999 wireless headphone system that is about one year behind my originally planned release date), and a Podcast will hopefully let me get short, concise reviews out about many of the many products I get to beta test, buy, use, and borrow. I also have regular occasion to talk to folks in the industry about a lot of interesting stuff (well, interesting to diehard Head-Fi'ers anyway), and I'd like some outlet to share that with the four or five of you in the community who might also be interested in that

.

Anyway, that's the deal on this. I have no experience in recording, and am going to be doing this with some embarrassingly simple gear, so pardon me in advance for any lack of production value. We'll see how this works out.
