Nice, will check this out tonight

I still don't understand this Soundcloud thing. How do I put this on my podcast app on my iphone?
-
Totally understandable. This is a temporary fix while we work on getting it uploaded with an associated RSS feed. It shouldn't be too much longer, but since we had recorded this last week we didn't want to sit on it any longer.
-
Make sure to upload a perfectly-sized image for it that's not all skewed n' shit! Lots of Podcasts I've heard had janky ass images.
-
We can try our Shack logo that's 300x250 (which is at the top of the front page at the moment).

I was part of the package. Once the sale happened, my services at GameFly were no longer required.

Yes, I also love you, Ozzie.
-
Totally agreed.
-
Ozzie's good people.
-
Ozzie! Ozzie! Ozzie!
Oy! Oy! Oy! -
He's i'ight, I mean whatever, if you're into that sort of thing.
-
Yeah Ozzie is awesome.

This is America, you can't buy people anymore. Ozzie and Steve Watts have both been a huge help during the transition. We are really happy that they are staying on with us as we implement our long term strategy. Briefcase Man sounds funny btw.
-
-
Everything is up. How's it going? B-Man, a guy with a briefcase logo on his chest...
-
-
One day we'll have BriefcaseMan on the podcast.
-
-
First thing I'll crit... sound quality; I listen to a lot of podcasts... but this is probably the worst of them all. I want to hear everyone talk, not chirp.
-
I'm half way through it. I like the format and the people involved. Glad that it relies so much on community feedback. Good job guys. Only thing is the name. Not a huge fan of "chattycast". I think it would be great if you came up with an original name to help differentiate it.

It was basically 1UP Yours II, and it was recorded in a pretty damn swank studio, which I imagine wasn't free or cheap to rent a session. I'm okay with a more down-to-earth cast via modern VoIP or Zoom H4n (thank you, Xav de Matos, for recommending the H4n; that thing is a tank).

We didn't stop Weekend Confirmed, it was Garnett's show. It wasn't included in the shacknews.com deal, so we immediately began working on a new podcast concept after the last episode of Weekend Confirmed was posted. I reiterate, the end of Weekend Confirmed was not our call and we are doing our best to provide the Chatty community with a new podcast. We will continue to seek criticism from everyone and I hope the show continues to evolve for the better. Garnett has gone on to do his own podcast with a new name (Garnett on Games) because he also didn't own the Weekend Confirmed podcast.
-
Weekend Confirmed never really felt like it was a part of the site anyway.
-
I think it was one of the best parts of the site, even if it wasn't joined at the hip with the Chatty.

Yeah I think it's important to have a bit of wiggle room.

Weekend Confirmed? More like Reach In Get Burned AMIRITE OR WHAT HERE FOLKS? Where are you folks from? Anaheim? You in town for the convention?

I would really love if you take the daily updates and give us a podcast of just the audio. 5-8 mins of top-line gaming news, with maybe a little analysis thrown in. I already have a ton of podcast subscriptions, with more audio downloaded than time to listen to it each week.
Giving up another 1-hour podcast for gaming news would be a hard sell, but I'd be really happy to have a shorter bite each day that I could listen to while I make breakfast in the mornings or wash up after dinner. Something for the smaller intervals like that would be excellent..-
This right here. I like it.
-
-
Finished listening to it I dig it. Hopefully Ozzie is a regular. I think the format works well it felt very natural. In the long run I think looking into quality mics for the crew would help some.
-
is there an RSS feed? if so, I would like to subscribe to your newsletter it
-
yeah I need this pronto

FYI, not sure what you are using for mics but Blue makes a USB mic called the snowball that I love. I use it plus headphones to record all my training stuff in camtasia. Patrick from GM also uses one. They are fairly inexpensive.
-
I need to start using headphones, for sure. I actually do have a Blue mic and it's amazing.

Shackcast was awesome but it was basically idle thumbs with one or two more people
-
-
I'm bringing back my podcast. It's just me calling people on the phone and telling them to play Alpha Protocol. Kickstarter coming soon!

any suggestions for this? I don't know much about it, but it seems like pod bean is a good solution
-
A lot of podcasts seem to use libsyn but I don't know much about it.
-
but as long as I can give people an rss feed link then mobile/rss users are good?
-

-
-
I'm not really familiar with soundcloud. Is there an easy way to get this onto my phone?
