Aiiiieee! Podcast, podcast, podcast!
Ack. I chased the family out of the house and sat down with this detailed outline to record a podcast today, and after hemming and hawing around the intro for awhile, I finally got into the topic I wanted to discuss.
Problem is, it sucked, because there wasn't any discussion, it was just me composing an audio essay on the fly, and it's just not working. When I was talking through something I've been conflicted over, and was raising questions, I could do that by myself... but this one is me sharing some ideas that I think really work, and it's me just telling people what to do. And there's no dynamic to it... it's just boring.
I really need a co-host for this one, and I realize that based on the kind of things I want to talk about 90% of the time, I need a co-host for all of them. The solo thing just doesn't fly for what I'm trying to accomplish.
I'm going to have to rope my wife into doing this and edit around her occasional coughing (until she gets over this thing), and/or find myself someone else to drag into this.
