It’s about time that I let you know what I have planned for podcasting coming soon from me.  It’s been a while since I’ve done the podcasting thing and I’m more than ready to get back into it full force.  Hope that you can join me on Thursday January 20th at 9pm Eastern at http://www.coreycharette.com/live and hear about it. I will take any questions or comments (via Skype or the chat room) at that time if you have any. If you can’t make it there and still have questions just leave a comment here and I will answer it personally and talk about it Thursday night with anyone else who might have the same question.

Hope to see you there,
Corey

First, I want to thank everyone for the kind words and support for the shows that I do.  Those really help make me happy and make me want to make every episode so much better than the one before.

The reason that I put a donation button on my podcast is because I felt comfortable enough to be able to do it.  As most of you know, this is my third podcast.  (The other two are Average Joe Show and Tech Gang Show.)  I figured that putting a donate button on the site won’t look like I’m in this for the money.  If I was, it would have been done a long time ago.  

Everything that is being done with these shows comes out of my pocket and the through the help of others.  Without them, the shoes wouldn’t exist.

With these donations we could help pay the co-hosts for their time and help get better equipment so we can produce better quality shows, get quicker turn around times on the releases and maybe start to do live video casts.

If you have any questions, please let me know.  I’ll answer any questions that you have.

Thanks,
Corey Charette

I shouldn’t have freaked Theresa (my co-host) out as much as I have yesterday.  This was her first experience with a podcast and she was really nervous about it.  Even though we would have conversations on Skype, for some reason, she thought that this was different.

So, after about 10 minutes of talking, I officially introduced the show.  The funny thing is that I thought that this would be an easy podcast to do, but I was still having troubling starting the show.  Even though I do two other podcasts (http://www.averagejoeshow.com and http://www.techgangshow.com) it’s still hard to get the first words out on the first episode.

Theresa did a heck of a job.  She was very comfortable behind the microphone.  We had planned 10 news stories to talk about and jotted down personal stories to cover too.  I figured that this would be enough to cover a 45 to 60 minute episode.

The conversations flew right out of our mouths.  I was impressed how it went.  When I finally wrapped up the show it was 80 minutes later and we only covered 6 of the 10 news stories we “brought to the table” and went on tangents and covered everything else imaginable.

I emailed Theresa a copy of the audio and she agreed with me that it sounded great!

I can’t wait until this weekend to upload it for all of you enjoy.  We already have friends of ours waiting for the episode to listen to.
