i'd like to say to all the new friends i made at the podcast pickle party that i welcome you to my twisted little world. i was working on a huge show that i put together over the weekend...it's in two parts cause i cant shut the hell up already...but then again i wouldnt be a podcaster if i didnt have much to say. thanks to the libsyn blackout i wasnt able to post up the new eps...so i will be doing that once i get home from night class! again thanks for giving me a chance and letting me in on some cool podcasts i wouldnt have found out about :)

i would have done a podcast this weekend except for a few things: 1)my apartment needs to be cleaned and i cant ignore that anymore. i was supposed to have completed three zines by now and i havent...plus i've got math homework to do..in short, real life is kicking me ass a bit. 2)my mp3 player is on the fritz barely three weeks after i got the damned thing...i emailed the company and i hope that i wont have to buy another player so soon..this doesnt have anything to do with actually doing a podcast except for the fact that i cant do interviews or on-location bits until i get the thing fixed or replaced...as well i wont even get a chance to do anything related to the show for the providence zine fest...crappers! 3)i want to do this show the best way i can, and as such the freeware i've been using is really subpar. i barely know how to use it, and it is not the most user friendly. the best audio recording software is stuff you have to pay through the nose for, and right now i aint got that type o' cabbage. i cant do anything about it right now..but it's going to take me longer than usual to edit all the interviews i did at the Dracula's Ball on Labor Day weekend. plus i've been really lazy about gathering content to flesh out the show. so there you have it...a nice laundry list of reasons why the Triscast is at a standstill this week. however, i would love to thank all of you who've been downloading the show, sending emails and audio responses, everyone who's been reviewing me good, bad or otherwise. it gives me strength to see that i'm not wasting my time nor anyone elses and that it makes me want to do better each time! *hugs and kisses* -raequel
