CLICK HERE TO HEAR THE FIRST EPISODE OF THE PORTAL PODCAST!


welcome to the portal podcast>our guide to your ride!

here it is, episode 1.  you can tell it's our first effort, but considering the fact that none of us have any prior experience with this stuff, we're pleased with the result.  old fart and i had low levels with our mics [oops], so i ran them through a pre-amp to make them louder.  that has slightly messed with the sound-quality of our voices.  expect improvements in future episodes.  

please post your questions, comments and the answer to the trivia question in the portal podcast thread at the SV portal. 

click on the title of this post to hear the first episode of the portal podcast!

hope you enjoy it!

tonight's the night!


tonight we are recording the first ever portal podcast!  i am sure we will have some technical snags and the like, but we are ready and rarring to go.  we are pleased to welcome joe s to the podcast.  joe is a heavy poster that speaks his mind on all issues and will be leading our rave on discussion.  we will also have chainsaw willie! and old fart with us this evening.

many thanks to the above gentlemen for persevering through last evening's conference call where we sorted through the technological issues that arise when trying to record a four-way conversation ranging from mid-eastern canada to the western united states.

and a personal note: i finally got a headset that works with my mac!  it is the fourth headset i have purchased [fourth time's the charm?], and i ended up having to spend about 10 times more than i had planned, but it works and it works well.  yay!

wish us luck tonight,
mrgenius
