Wonder Northwest's Kneel Before Pod panel

Hey, that's me on the left sitting awkwardly next to Dr. Manticore (Kaebel Hashitani representing Geek In The City), Matt Hunter (representing the A Jumps B Shoots podcast), Fatboy Roberts and Cort Webber (of the Cort and Fatboy Show) and we're all talking about podcasting.

Greetings listeners! So during the local convention Wonder Northwest, I was part of a podcasting panel with Cort & Fatboy (of the Cort & Fatboy Show), Matt Hunter (of the A Jumps, B Shoots podcast) and Kaebel Hashitani (who represented the Geek In The City podcast as Dr. Manticore). It was hosted by Rick Emerson (The Rick Emerson Show, Legion of News). I asked on Facebook if anyone would be interested in hearing the audio from this episode and the response was positive. I want to reiterate that this is not “clean” supplemental material, but for anyone that wanted to hear said panel audio, here you go. I tried to sweeten the audio as much as possible. “Big ups” go out to Martin Vavra of Galaxy Sailor Productions, not only for being an awesome regular addition to the Kaijucast crew, but also for filming the panel and pulling the audio off the video so that I could post it to my rag-tag Godzilla podcast blog… Thanks, Martin!!!

 

So after the panel, Rick Emerson asked if I would be interested in appearing with Matt on his local television show called Outlook Portland. The timing worked out and I was able to make it to the studio the day after Wonder Northwest to talk about podcasting. Here are the videos that were born of that taping:




 

So, yeah… I don’t really like how I look when videoed (surprise! I’m a nerd with some social awkwardness!).
