From the Front Lines: Double Trouble on Schoolbus Cast

Sunday, August 3rd, 2008

Troops, welcome to the podosphere Lucas…a 15-year old high school student out of San Diego.
Lucas’ original plan was to launch Schoolbus Cast this Friday for his fellow teens returning to the hallowed halls of education. However, on hearing about Double Trouble and being the fan of podcast fiction, he decided to break in his gear [...]

From the Front Lines: Double Trouble on Backseat Producers

Friday, August 1st, 2008

Three hours.
This podcast is three — hours — long.
What else can I say? This is a super-sized audio experience of epic podcasting proportions…and in the words of Tony Mast: “132MB of sweet, sweet nectar that you will drink up and want more when you are done.”
Here you go, Troops. Dig in, and enjoy…

From the Front Lines: Double Trouble on Creative Adventures

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

I think I’ve got a new topic to talk about on The Survival Guide: Setbacks.
Seemingly overnight, without warming, my mixer is giving off a nasty hum. I don’t know how it happened, but there it is…
Lovely. Just lovely.
I’m currently trying to come up with a workaround (that workaround being a new mixer out of BSWUSA.com…). [...]

Double Trouble, as you know, Troops, is the promotional team-up between Philippa Ballantine (a/k/a Captain Kiwi of the infamous podjack back in December) and The Sarge. It is [...]

Walking the walk…

Sunday, June 1st, 2008

In the live Survival Guide…, you hear me talk about writing outside of your comfort zone.
Well, now I’m throwing it out there for everyone to see…

Okay…I’m not throwing it out there, but author J.C. Hutchins is.
The long-awaited, highly-anticipated, and seriously-hyped 7th Son: Obsidian is now officially live. These are short stories set in the 7th [...]

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

This is an episode I will not soon forget…While I have recorded live on location, I have never recorded a Survival Guide live that was not an interview. This is the first time I had the carts, the topic, and even a cohort along for the discussion. This was truly the first LIVE Survival Guide…and [...]

One down, and many more to go…

Thursday, April 10th, 2008

There have been quite a few requests for my Survival Guide/Commentary to Dragon*Con which went offline after the FPM move to Podango. After checking the 8/27/07 post and figuring out the missing piece — the episode itself — I have remedied the situation (at least with this episode) and present you all the lost August [...]
