FIRST Podcast

[Matt Krass]

I'd definitely be in for listening and hosting if wanted/need, I've got my Skype and headset ready to go, plus ventrilo, teamspeak, etc. I play a lot of games so if you're using a common VoIP program I probably have it.

Keep us updated!

Do you have Roger Wilco? (wow... that's oldschool)

[Matt Krass]

I have the installer...somewhere.......220GB of storage half is backups, but I know it's in there somewhere....

Anyways, perhaps it would help to bring this idea to fruition if we all picked a time to meet in the IRC channel at

irc.freenode.net:6667/#firstrobotics

I believe there's a few links in peoples profiles, sanddrag comes to mind, I don't know if it's still there, it leads to the Java IRC client if you don't have your own.

You could've just looked one signature up from your post

I'd help host or with technical details if you need help. I have a podcast listed on iTunes, but it's not a real podcast. You can search it if you want.

I was thinking about doing a podcast during build season for our team too. Would anyone listen to a more small-scale one like that?

[Babyhueyhnx]

i think thats a great idea. people could email in their questions or as said before use skype. we could set up a website with FAQ, pod cast downloads and some other stuff. people could use ipodder to download the pcasts or just click on a link. i think thefirstpodcast.com would be a suitable name. i'd be willing to lend a hand where ever needed.

[Rohan_DHS]

Sounds like a great idea! I'd listen to it

Good luck with that =)

[Ryan Dognaux]

Podcasts are great. I'd definitely listen and be up for a little commentating from time to time. Good luck on getting this going.

[Matt Goulart]

Sounds like a great idea and I would defiantly listen but I have one question would it be a seasonal show, I mean to say just during FIRST season or would it be an all year thing.

[Brandon Martus]

I think with the amount of off-seasons there are, you could get material year-round.

I also think there's enough material year-round; not just with the off-season competitions, but also with FIRST-related Organisations like RCU, FIRST Wiki, openFIRST and the large number of others at http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=61 to at least make one regular section of the podcast be introductions to or updates from the people working on those.

Sounds like a plan. I'll definitely listen, and maybe, just maybe want to do a few not hosting but just speaking/commenting. Don't count on it.

Seems like a good idea, be prepared for heavy traffic however the podcast is set up though.
