I don’t know…lots of times I have things to blog about, and I think them over in the shower or something, but then by the time I get to the computer, I feel like I’m “done” with that topic and too lazy to write it down. Maybe voice recordings would be easier than typing? But I have no topics to suggest.

If you did, I would download it and listen.

Are podcasts really about anything?

dude you have a great “podcast voice”. maybe you should look into being a voice over for cartoons or commercials. i have a friend in the industry so maybe i can hook you up.

maybe you can podcast your novel? maybe write some short stories for the podcasts and base your novel off of the short stories?

Aw, thanks. But that was like Take 523 or something. I’m kind of wanting to do a podcast for two reasons: 1. I don’t do any theater any more, so I don’t get any voice coaching, and I tend to mumble or speak too softly a lot anyway. I see this as exercise., and 2. Doing something like this really helps train you to think faster.

the Pete is right; you have a very nice podcast voice!

Maybe you could do it on “green” or “sustainable’ happenings/news/advice (similar to your other blog thingie). You could even occasionally bring on guests to talk about the topic du jour that they know a lot about.

It could be one of those “raise awareness” type of podcasts.

For instance, I really hate GE’s new commercials and print ads encouraging people to get rid of their perfectly good washer and dryer just because they want a shiny new GE one. That just seems very un-sustainable and irresponsible, to me. But maybe I just haven’t thought it through enough. ON the one hand, a new W/D uses less energy than an old one. But on the other, what happens to the old one when you throw it “away?”

Things to explore….
