I’ve decided to toss my fear of public speaking aside and go ahead with the launch of the minicast. As of now, it is active, with an rss feed, and an upcoming link in the Itunes store.
The first episode runs just under 6 minutes, and features Phil Menard, The Chatty DM as my guest. We help out a DM who asked about perception checks, and we talk about our upcoming podcast, “The Dungeon Master Guys”, which will be co-hosted by Dave Chalker (critical-hits.com) as well.
A couple of notes on my minicast. I hate my voice, I truly do, it irritates me. 🙂 Also, I don’t own a recording studio. So if your complaints are quality/production related, I am a professional television producer when I’m not blogging, so chances are I’ve noticed what you’ve noticed and it probably irks me too. So it is what it is. And yes I have an accent. It’s called Miami Cuban-American. We don’t think we have it down here, or we like to pretend we don’t, but we all do. 🙂
And about the length, it’s not meant to be a full fledged long show. It’s quick, short, and to the point. Here’s the feed, which you can add to itunes. I hope you guys enjoy it.

Nice quickie podcast. I’m really looking forward to hearing you guys discuss stuff. Be sure to link the Dungeon Master Guys once everything is rolling.
I’d be interested if folks that run other podcasts could enlighten us on the equipment that they use.

Is it accessible if you don’t have iTunes?

Accents are sexy. I’ve been told so for 2 years of my own podcasting, so own it. 🙂

Nothing wrong with your voice. As a New Zealander, we’re notorious for having sharp accents, personally I love all accents. It’s ironic that in the world people are marginalised or prejudiced against due to their race/religion, yet in fantasy literature and roleplaying racial and religious diversity is demanded.

All I can say is that MY accent is awesome.
And I’m with Greg here. I love how we all mangle the queen’s!

First off, no problem with the audio that I can hear.. I mean, it ain’t a new iTunes release, but for a nice quick podcast, it’s all good. that said, when it comes to Gelatenous Cubes, you both are evil DMs… try not to get too many TPKs too soon, lol…

I didn’t download this yet but I’ve listened to you before on the Tome. Accents are great, and I especially like Chatty’s silent French h.
I’d be terrified to do podcast in English since my Hyperborean (Finnish) tongue feels so stiff trying to pronounce, like, words and stuff. Strangely French feels easier.
