Hooray!  Hooray!  Podcast-o-rama!  Podcast-a-go-go!  Podcasting up the wazoo!

Seriously, I have been planning on starting a podcast for months and months, then I decided for sure that I wanted it to be in conjunction with my tenth journalversary.  Today, 5 May 2006, is the tenth anniversary of my online journal, Sweet as a Biscuit, aka "The Mighty Kymm - you'll not see nothing like" aka whatever the hell else I've been calling it over the past ten years.  It even used to be at hedgehog.net!

I actually recorded this podcast two weeks ago, because I just.  Couldn't.  Wait.  There will be a new one every Friday which will include a featured artist, a featured podcast, and me talking your ear off.  My original thought was that I'm an actor in NY, I'll talk about acting and tell funny stories, like  Betty in the Sky does about being a flight attendant, but I know me, it's not going to be nearly so organized as hers is.

Regular listeners of podcasts can skip this part, but here is a quick podcasting tutorial for perhaps my readers of Sweet as a Biscuit (currently in exile at livejournal, but soon to move back to the domain) who do not know from podcasting.  First of all, a podcast is a radio show recorded for the internet that you download onto your computer to listen to at your leisure, and, the name notwithstanding, you don't need an iPod to listen to a podcast, all you need is a computer.

You can download a podcast in three different ways, you can right click on the individual podcast link and download it, or you can subscribe via iTunes, or via another podcast catcher.  Personally, I prefer Juice to iTunes, and it will look for new episodes for you ands automatically download them to your computer.  I don't know how fast it will take for me to get listen in iTunes, but my rss feed is right here, and all you have to do is copy and paste it into Juice or something else.  Or just wait for iTunes to catch up.  Or right click!  And then listen!  And then tell me how much you liked it!  Or call me at 206-202-2867, (that's 206-20-ACTOR, pretty cool, eh?) and leave a voicemail.

In this, my first podcast, I talk about saying y'know all the damn time, tell the story of the Road to the Podcast, blame it all on John Scalzi, casually mention Comedy 4 Cast, CD Baby and The Chapin Sisters in passing, and talk about how I can talk without stopping until being hit with a tranquilizer dart.
