Transcript:
Scott: I know you got into podcasting pretty much at the beginning. How did you first hear of it?
Dave: I was an avid reader of blogs, and I was aware that some bloggers were starting to attach audio files. That excited me. I had never written my own blog – I’m not really much of a writer – but I knew that doing something with audio would be my kind of thing. I read a newspaper article early in 2004, February, I think, which mentioned podcasting. So I started to look into it, but I didn’t feel that I had the technical capabilities. I was also busy with work, I’m a graphic designer, so I sort of forgot about the idea for a while.
Scott: But you came back to it and started your own podcast early in 2005.
Dave: That’s right. In January, to be exact. Um, by then all the tools were available, and I had enough free time to devote to my own podcast. Of course I didn’t know if anyone would listen to it, but - just being able to broadcast something was enough for me.
