SPOS #01 – Pilot Episode

After being a Co-Host on Across The Sound – the new marketing Podcast from Joseph Jaffe, I caught the Podcasting bug… big time. Yesterday I was listening to Across The Sound Episode 33 with CC Chapman (from Accident Hash, The U-Turn Cafe and Managing The Gray) and I just decided to go for it. I emailed CC and he pointed me toward CastBlaster. I watched the demo, downloaded the trial version and hit record.
So, here it is – the pilot episode of Six Pixels Of Separation – The Podcast. Six Pixels Of Separation has been a keynote presentation I have given over the past few months and is the working title for my yet-to-be-written book.
Below are show notes from this pilot episode of Six Pixels Of Separation. Let me throw some caution up front:
– This is my first attempt at Podcasting and I’m putting it out there in the spirit of “what the heck.”
– It was recorded live, in one-shot, with no editing.
– CastBlaster in trial format only allows you to record a maximum of ten minutes (that’s why I talk a little faster at the end).
– I’m not a fan of the intro or outro music – I was just playing around. My business partner, Mick Kanfi, will be creating some cool theme music (coming soon).
– This episode is “powered by” and not “presented by” CastBlaster.
– I should have faded out the music at the end.

As with everything, your comments, feedback and help is appreciated. Please let me know what you think.
