I’m listening to the podcast right now. You’re rather charming.

I love Post-Its! I use highlighters in a wide variety of colors, and color code my file folders.

Wow, no schedule? 27 podcasts in 1 day? You crazy guy.

I vote for an exponential numbering scheme. The first one is 1, the second is 2, the third is 4, the fourth is 8, …

Yeah, thus my one two three method.

Ahem. That’s mx=y-b, not +b. Just sayin…

Also, I’ve consulted with Stevie Wonder, and I think my podcasts will be numbered in the traditional y=mx+b fashion.

No, I mean, they’ll be numbered in the mx=y+b fashion.

No no, I mean in the one two three method. Yeah, that’s it. (iTunes is picky, and I’m too lazy to try getting creative and compliant both. I’m a total conformist.)

Janiece — the answer was so obviously YES!!!11one1! That I felt replying would cheapen it.

;o)

You don’t want your podcast sponsored by my Apple Butter?

Why not just keep it in the essence of geekiness that is you, and just say it’s version 1.1? Next podcast would be version 1.2, and so on and so forth.

If you prefer to have kerfuffle in the podcast intro, I’m sure we could arrange that too.

So I don’t think I got the point. What’s the podcast going to be called?

Your sound quality was awesome considering this is a first run. Usually new podcasts sound like crap.

It would be cool if you talked a little about writing fiction.

Love it, Shawn. Raccons and Brussel Sprouts, cracked me UP!

How about “Era x, UPoT y,” abbrev. Ex.y. (UPoT = Unspecified Period of Time)

I want a podcast about shininess.

I’m quite entertained by listening to you blather on about nothing. Topics are overrated.

Ok — I like it. I will use the x.x method of episode naming. Can we call them Episode 1, Kerfluffle 1 instead of “season” ? Because I’ve always wanted to find a good use for the word kerfluffle…

Or maybe Episode 1, Series 1, because that’s more British sounding.

OR, maybe I just pronounce the dot. ie, “Season one dot one”

I think I’m going to like this…

And thank you immensely for all the compliments. I’d be lying if I said they didn’t make me feel shiny.

I second Kate. You have a lovely voice to listen to Shawn.

How about doing a dramatic reading of some short fiction? That’s be fun!

Wow! You have a great radio voice. That mic makes you sound fantastic! THat’s through the mixing board? I’m sooo jealous!
