14 feed subscribers and very little audio

the beginning of a daily audioblog

So, I’m realizing it takes a bit of work to post a podcast on any regular basis. You have to record the audio, save it as an mp3, upload the audio, wait for it to be uploaded, and then link to it in your post. A grueling process if you haven’t tried it (okay, it’s really not that tough).

But, I ran across audioblogger from google and found an EXTREMELY easy way to post a regular podcast. All I have to do is call in on my phone and…TADA! I have a podcast. The next thing on the list is to try the call in with three way calling so that I can interview somebody at the same time. That would be pretty sweet.

For folks here, I’ll be reposting ones that are relevant to my thoughts and ideas here. I’ll probably post a lot more podcast on that site: http://ariah.blogspot.com

For, now enjoy another little podcast.

Who should I interview?

So, I really like the idea of podcasting. I’ve done a few silly one’s but the themes vary a whole lot. There are a couple areas I’d be really interested in doing a podcasting series in, and I’m wondering what you’d think about them.
1) Interviewing Non-Christians about Christians and Christianity. This has always been an area I’m very interested in. One, because most Christians live in a bubble of sorts and never really hear “real live non-Christians” talk about things. Christians often seem to have opinions of the outside world made up entirely on what other Christians have told them (sounds so middle schoolish). Secondly, I’ve found there are a lot of Non-Christians that are quite interested in saying something to Christians collectively. I’ve talked to liberal non-Christians who can’t understand how Christians can name themselves after the radical liberal they see talked about in the Bible (Jesus). I’ve talked to homosexual non-Christians who just want to share how hurt they’ve been by so-called Christians, and ask how they can call their faith “loving.” I’d love to talk to others, and ideally give folks a constructive place to share heartfelt concerns and criticism of Christians in our society.

2. The other series I’d love to do is interviewing businesses and organizations I think are doing things Christians should support. This would include a whole bunch of fair trade clothing companies, something I think is Very important for Christians to be informed about. Also, CSA’s and other local farmers, and other cool organizations I learn about through out the country, or just through out Nashville.

3. Maybe just for podcasting and interviewing practice, I’ll do a series interviewing my friends, spread out across the country, and finding out what their post college experience has been like. (I like this as a starting idea).

On Simple Living and living “a dollar above” the poverty line

This podcast I brought a guest speaker in, Nate Manaen, all the way from Las Vegas (He joins us in the study, from inside my cellphone). The topic being discussed was originally brought about by some post Nate put on his Xanga a week ago. You can read his two post and some of the comments here: post 1, post 2.

Here is the podcast.

Please post your comments and thoughts below or on my xanga or Nate’s.

The Fine’s second podcast

Warning: This is a dumb podcast. If you don’t know us, or aren’t a friend of ours from Wheaton, you probably don’t want to waste your time listening to this. And if your from Wheaton it’s probably not worth it either.
