Can you please share your wisdom on how to create a podcast for a radio broadcast?

Does Rev podcast his show? I was not aware.

ok, it's pretty easy.
what you need is
1) a way to record a radio show
2) a place to store the file
3) an xml file that gets updated when the file gets updated.

the basic premise of podcast is that your "viewers" don't have to do anything after they "subscribe" to the podcast. What happens is that iTunes or whatever application checks the XML file and when it's updated the "viewers" program will autodownload it to their iPod or minidisc player or whatever.

so to break down the steps:
1) do your radio show and get it into MP3 format. (I can go into more details if you need here)

2) place that file on the internet some where that you can link people to. my show is 140MB each week for 3 hours. so you are going to need a lot of space AND bandwidth.
my show: http://www.wunh.org/mp3/2006-05-29.mp3

3) make the xml file and place it on the web
this is software that will autogenerate that file for you:

just remember to update it every week.

there is a final step. you promote. install itunes and add your podcast, seach and add it on listenings. make a podpickle player. whatever.

how do i add your podcast to itunes?



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at May 31,2006 7:54pm
install itunes.
then click podcast directory.
then submit a podcast.
put in your xml link there.

this is the sucky thing, you have to "log in" and you can only login with an account that you need to have a credit card for.

thats sucks... the credit card part... i guess i will just download your show everyweek



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at May 31,2006 8:21pm
wait, wait, wait...
do you want to get your itunes to download it?
