I had an interesting situation arise last week. I was contacted by someone who offered to put me on the radio as an expert in Boomer nostalgia.

As I suspected, they wanted me to cough up money to do so.

Let's get back to basics here: The way this works is that I work, then get paid.

However, the whole incident did remind me that internet users are hungry for sound-bites.

So, I worked to overcome the issues that I had run into two years ago which stopped me from producing podcasts. It turned out that I just needed a new microphone! And here I had assumed that the problems were with Linux drivers for my soundcard.

NEVER doubt Linux!

Anyhow, tomorrow's column will feature its podcast equivalent, and I will be trying to get a podcast out with each new entry.

Enjoy!
