First open introduce yourselves.
do an overview of whats coming up whats new and all the major highlights of the podcast.
include music, it makes it sound appealing.
have memorable segments:
-General discussion with whats going on with the world, entertainment, etc.
-Gaming
- manga and anime
- faction chats whats new?, relate to some things thats been going on
-Movies
- and soo on
- closure
be more lively lol.
check out the
one piece podcast as an examplejust skip threw it. there are spoilers if u follow the series but meh alot dont follow.
i hope this helped.
We did.
How would an overview work? How would that flow organically into a conversation? I don't want to just read off a prompter with no emotion, that doesn't make a podcast entertaining.
We did include music. I wanted to include more music and longer, but Dx doesn't like doing that. He says it takes up too much time to play a 5 minute song. I could only see it taking up time being a problem if the person listening doesn't like the song, otherwise I would like to include more music too. It takes a long time to switch my skype settings to playing from the computer and back to the microphone, and I don't have a fade out option for playing music so I can't have sounds separating segments. Unless I had another computer I could play things from while still talking on the other, then that could work. Or if there's some sort of program that can do all that stuff easily in skype, like a soundboard that's customizable with custom sounds and fadeout and skype compatibility while still letting me talk and isn't too demanding or costly.
General discussion - that's what the podcast was practically.
Gaming - we talked about that
manga and anime - we talked about anime. We can't go in depth on anime and manga though, that would spoil it for those that don't read or watch. Don't want to just go out throwing spoilers left and right. Even the few things we did begin to elaborate on went awfully close to spoiler territory.
faction chats whats new?, relate to some things thats been going on - just read off general chat, or what?
Movies - We talked about movies too
If you want you can get on skype and help us out with starting this up, we haven't done 244+ podcasts like those guys so just listening to them won't help us improve and catch all the nuances of what they do and how they do it. We need direction and motivation to improve, also obviously practice since we're not very good.
Me and Dx are pretty much free any time, so if you want to schedule a time you're available we can do one with you.
