Croncast - Jolie and her friend Kris Ep. 1 (remix)

My guest for today cancelled out early so I put together this special edition remix.

Today’s show is a remix of the show from December 24, 2004 with Jolie Holland. I've mixed in some songs and done a little more production work that I should have done when I put the show together the first time.

This was a huge honor for me and something I have been looking forward to for the past month. If you've been following the show I am sure you understand.

Jolie talks a little on her past musical experiences, how she found my blog and why it was funny (she thought I was 70, true dat), what it is like to be on Anti Records, other stuff and my favorite . . . a possibly soon to be released live CD and maybe video of the session. For the rest of it you'll have to listen to the show.

Upcoming tour dates.

Croncast - Dan and his friend Kris Ep. 1

Today’s show is with my good friend Dan Balzer, an instructional designer. Dan and I have worked on many projects together and usually seem to learn atleast one valuable lesson per project.

The show today focuses on the role of podcasting in society, in technology and as a cultural phenomenon.

Croncast - Betsy and her husband Kris Ep. 15

Today's show is Besty and Kris getting warmed up after the holiday weekend. We're both still sick so today's show is a shorter than usual and probably even less focused.

Starting today we've moved th show to a new format that listeners can count on:

M W F - Croncast will be co-hosted Betsy
T Th - Crocast will be hosted by Kris and he will speak with a guest

I imagine that once we are both over our illnesses things will get back to the pace they were before with banter, humor and the same sounds (sans coughing) that you are used to.

Croncast - Shane and his friend Kris Ep. 1

Today's guest is Shane Robinson from NOTM.org.

Shane and Kris shoot the breeze about the winward side of the island. Aloha everybody! We talk about new podcasting applications, blogging vs. podcast, do your show your way, rules to live by and making up words.

Skype stuff continues but we make it through it and the edits don't have the ringing today I believe.

Notes soon.

Croncast - Amy and her friend Kris Ep. 2

Today's guest is Amy Gahran from blog.contentious.com.

The blog post that started it all, The “Pod People” Are So… Human.
The follow up, Text, Audio, and Editing: I Stand Somewhat Corrected.

Today, Amy and I delve into women in podcasting, technology and interface design for women. We also talk about podcasting use in education.

This show was plagued by technical difficulties so there are abrupt cuts. I left them in to demonstrate a little bit of how difficult it can be to use new technologies to perform. I am starting to believe that maybe it is just Windows. My Mac compatriots seem to be handling this stuff better with their MobilePre's while mine wants to flake out if more than three applications are running.

Today's Show

Notes soon (I have to write some code).
