Get Your Book Festival Podcasts Here!
Posted on: July 21st, 2008 by Matt Raymond
The eighth annual National Book Festival (Sept. 27, 2008) has an outstanding lineup of authors, and I’ve been having the privilege of interviewing several of them for podcasts.
The subscription link is here.
I’m a bit of a perfectionist, so I have to disclose that I have been doing my own audio engineering (with practically zero training) on new equipment. The good news is that the new equipment should significantly increase our capacity to do podcasts. The bad news is that the first few I recorded weren’t quite so, um, “polished” as more recent ones. There is a bit of “clipping” in parts, and I sometimes sound like I’m speaking into a coffee can.
Please bear with it, though. I’ve found every one of the authors with whom I’ve spoken fascinating, and there are some great ones yet to come.

Any chance the podcasts will become available via iTunes?

You may want to check out the guys at Twit.tv, they’re tech experts out of California that talk about technology.
When they started podcasting they had very low tech gear but their shows sounded pretty good. I know they wrote about it and periodically talk about podcasting latest and greatest techniques. And, no, I have no affiliation with them. I’m an east coast guy
but I always recommend checking them out, they’re fantastic.
