Episode 0102/0103 - Bleach (Parts One and Two) will be recorded SUNDAY AT 5PM EST. The episode will be published Monday July 16th.
--------------
Zach, two other guests, and I just recently recorded episode 2 earlier tonight, but we got the same problems as the first podcast: The sound is awful and most of what we're saying is either silent or inaudible. Zach had to cut out nearly half the footage as a result, especially when we had some important things to say. The final product was a big mess and thus will not be released.

Shortly after listening to our little travesty, we talked over what was wrong and we reached an agreement: These live Skype chats have got to go. We know that Skype is (was) the backbone of what makes our podcast possible, but there are other alternative methods to make a podcast, and we feel that a new format is the best way to do things.

Here's the new plan: We're thinking of prerecording our own segments individually, then combining them together. This new method has the following advantages:

1) The sound is more coherent and higher quality.
2) The show will be more diverse. We can branch out to more outside voices instead of having just a few guys in a limited conference.
3) We can relax and take our time instead of rush things like before.

We'll still be covering Bleach in this episode, so if you've missed out on our earlier recording, you still have another chance to voice your thoughts on the show, as well as any comments, questions, or other feedback. You can send text mail or voicemail (preferrably in WAV or MP3 format) and we'll read/play them on the show! Send them to zeonzum@gmail.com

Maybe its about time you should go to Audiacity...
Its the Adobe Audtition, Only GNU and Free...
That should help you on the podcast show, it worked for mine...

That was our plan in the first place.

We're going to be recording "Bleach" as a double podcast, meaning we will dedicate more than double the time to this show...anyone can record their own opinions and send them to Daikun's address or Adultswimhq@gmail.com and we'll air them on the podcast! The podcast should be over a half hour of engaging, non-awkward-silence-filled, conversation about the anime Bleach, Adult Swim news, and ASHQ news! I'll try and have it published early, on Monday.

But this podcast will still focus only on the Bleach episodes that have aired on AS, right? I'd rather not listen to it if it means I'd be unpleasantly spoiled.

I have a couple choices:

Divide the podcast in two episodes
Divide the podcast into navagatable chapters, so you can listen to whichever part you want.
Put the whole thing together

Hmm, the editing for the first two choices sounds kind of hard, especially if people talk about both spoiler and non-spoiler episodes in one recording. On second thought, it seems hard no matter what way you do it. :sweat: Thanks for putting so much time and effort into this.

I'm waiting for my mic to come in, plus I've had an enormously busy week.

I see. That's understandable. :p
