Feature request: could you upload the podcasts as videos with a still image on YouTube? It would improve the UX and help with discoverability. Google gives some easy ways to do it: http://www.google.com.hk/m/search?q=mp3%20to%20youtube&c...

Kudos on getting decent audio. Are you using a Rode Podcaster? I'd love to try one. I've had to unsubscribe to countless podcasts with decent content just because they didn't invest the £100-200 on a decent microphone & pop filter. As you can probably tell yourself, it's harder when the guests don't have decent mics, but a good first effort.

I'd like to apologize for the echo from my side. I have a quality mic, but had to change rooms at the last second and didn't realize the acoustics were that bad or I would have tweaked the sensitivity or grabbed a more forgiving mic.

I'd prefer a video podcast, even if there's just talking involved. I can't just listen to something anymore, because I'd have to do something else in the same time, and then I won't be able to focus on listening. With video I can just watch it.

Try working on a spatial problem. I can't listen to podcasts while writing code, but I can while laying out a PCB.

Drawing or doing a jigsaw puzzle might work too.

Any chance of a write-up on how you managed to get this together so fast? Id especially like to know the software used and how you managed to get organise the guest speakers as the time zone difference must have been a challenge. 3 days for this an impressive feat and I will definitely be a regular listener.

I was one of the guests as well and everything went amazingly smooth and took almost no time at all outside of the time talking.

Thanks Alex. I guess you're planning on uploading it as 3x 10min clips on YouTube?
