So why don't we have some sort of a podcast?

If ya'll were serious, I found a website for "starters".

You can traverse through there and see it. I dunno, it'd be pretty cool.

 

This would be great!

The way I'd love to see it done is two people are the main podcasters (Strenuus and Brian for example) They shoot the breeze for a while, talk a few topics, then have a guest (HCP, KingSpeed or SPD for example) for a deeper delve into some specific topic. Rinse and repeat following week.

This type of setup allows for an easy template if the podcast picks up steam and is able to get Blazers or Blazer-related guests.

Too many more than those three FAMS will end up getting too congested.

 

I've noticed with podcasts that the simpler the better. Then, of course, you gotta have the witty "drops" for funsies.

 

I was thinking a video podcast but if you guys just want an audio version I can set it up.

I also have connections with Blazer guests like beat writers and I've had Wheels on before.

 

I've recorded, mixed, and delivered many a podcast in my day (stretching back to 2005, and as recently as June)... I'm down to assist technically and/or participate.

 

When this gets sponsored, let's make sure Denny gets NONE of our profits!!!!

 

I've been a guest on three or four episodes of a podcast put on by a pair of aspiring comedians...

 

How would you go about getting this on Itunes, lol.

 

Here is an expansion of how I would set up for a podcast. Topics are fluid and change weekly, and the hosts are simply chosen by choosing a couple of the first responders in this thread, but all names and topics could easily change.



Host 1: Strenuus
Host 2: BrianfromWA.

Guest: HCP

Podcast starts to theme created by handclapproblematic or some other poster.(15seconds)

Introductions and pleasantries from Brian and Strenuus (1minute)

Topic 1 - Recent Blazer Game discussion (playing time, wins/losses, coaching decisions,) Also, the weeks MVP and kiddie-watch.(10 to 15 minutes)
Topic 2 - Around the NBA with an eye on how these issues affect the Blazers. (Hot/cold teams, players on the Block, trends, West vs East, etc.....)(10 -15 min)

Guest - HCP ( Choose one or two topics to discuss. Examples for HCP might be Travel Stories and His take on Stotts new Defensive scheme.) (10-15 min)

Topic 3 - A look ahead for the Blazers/ (predictions, things to look for, trade or other deadlines, etc...) (5-10 minutes)

Outro - say bye, perhaps mention a topic or two on S2 to promote.

Some music again, by poster.







I think this is very repeatable, if it becomes popular it could easily be adjusted for twice a week. Total time is less than an hour.

 

To take that further (no pun intended), I think a live podcast blog would be cool, to get the pulse of what people are reacting to.

Also, we could read comments from posters as well, and respond accordingly (and within reason).

 

OK then, topic 4 - which weed strains would be best matched to each player? (Example: Lillard would certainly feel looser taking it hard to the inside on Blueberry Yum Yum Whereas Aldridge needs the aggressive flavors of Mango Kush.)

 

I WANT IN BITCHES

I can do uhhhh a poster? Also music. Also I can be a totally underinformed homer fan, I don't think there's enough of those.

 

I assume when it happens there will be a sticky for exactly that, a weekly thread for topic suggestions and a weekly thread to say how the hosts were complete idiots and got everything wrong.

I certainly think tying the podcast into this board makes a lot of sense for both parties involved.

 

wait can I represent the OT section? like, once a show there's five minutes where I argue my stoney idealistic political views with someone and then HCP comes in and calls us both nerds

 

Ill throw myself in the list if a behind the scenes guy is needed, although I have no background in it.

 

I think we just need to get a drop from you saying it's Bush's fault and a drop from MM saying it's Obama's fault.
