Take questions or comments from members of your websites! IT would mix things up a lot and get some fresh insight and humor. (Not that I would have any part of that!) But, I understand that you are super busy. Keep up the good work!</p>Doug SmithTue, 26 Dec 2006 14:52:10 -0000http://chris.leckness.com/2006/12/23/podcasting-and-me/#comment-8317365<p>Chris, you hit the nail on the head with the time &amp; effort it takes to podcast with multiple hosts. First, you have to get everyone together which is a challenge. We combat 3 time zones to do this. Next, you need some prep time for the topics; usually the easiest part. The actual recording is basically the same amount of time as the final show. Finally, getting the multiple tracks FTP'd, synched up, and cleaned up into one audio file usally takes 4x the show length. For our 30 minut show, it's a good 2 hours of post production. All told, I'd say that we collectively spend 6 - 7 hours of time for a 30 minute podcast! Juggling those hours once or twice a week is a huge commitment, so I can certainly understand why MG is a challenge. Looking forward to seeing it return, however! :)</p>Kevin C.

Sorry to hear that you don't really like podcasts.</p>RaidersSun, 24 Dec 2006 02:57:48 -0000
