[quote=Thedashingrogue]Whilst walking back from the newsagents listening to the YogPod on my phone, I wondered if Facepunch could have it's own podcast. It would probably be hosted by me and a couple of others and it would be about 10-15 minutes in length. It would just sum up what has happened in the forums (highlights, decent threads, etc) and also news IRL. If anyone's interested, please let me know. This could actually be quite good.[/quote]
I posted this in Creationism Corner and it got a couple of replies, so I decided to make a new one here to see what you guys thought of it. The FacePod would be a facepuncher's podcast. I'm going to leave it to you guys to decide how long each show is, the rate of episodes (e.g: weekly), etc. It would be hosted by me and a couple of others. I've got one or two volunteers already who have offered to help. My initial idea for the show is mainly news in and out of FP, but it would be 80% filled with jokes. I also thought I would leave any extra stuff such as theme tunes, logo's, etc. up to you to make. If you have any questions please feel free to ask, and tell me what you think. If I get any volunteers for hosts I will keep a small list in this OP.
I don't know about you but as long as there's as least two hat-tips to me in every podcast I will give it my endorsement and provide myself as legally culpable for any prosecutable actions it may endeavour in.

if it's going to be "%80 filled with jokes" you better get a writer, son. or it's just going to sound like a bunch of awkward creepy people repeating the same stuff for twenty minutes

I've just appointed myself as your legal advisor, marketing agent, operational manager and general CEO.
With our special guest, Chickens!
[editline]3rd June 2011[/editline]
I'd do this.
To a good year's business and entertaining the masses with our Face Cast Podcast! I sure hope we succeed in our objectives to brighten up Facepunch's day with our jolliment and good old times.

It'd be an honour to work with you, sir.
We already had one with CowInParachute and Appox, it was fucking incredible.
I would listen to this, purely to judge you all from the first minute alone.
As for taking part, I will follow the threads development and think of things.
Sounds like Shoutpunch, but with more talking and less music. I like, maybe you guys could also host it on Shoutpunch live aswell as the usual recordable downloadable options?

Thank you for vesting an interest in our Podcast. If you wish to perhaps solidify your interest with us, our stock code is FACPD10. I suggest investing early to make maximum returns when we become a hit!

There it is.
I'll have a word with Tu154M ‎if FacePod goes down well, sounds like a good idea.

That would improve both of the parts. People who listen to shoutpunch would start listening to your podcast, and people who listen to your podcast may catch it on shoutpunch. Win/win situation! Plus shoutpunch is on autodj for like 75% of the time anyway, it kinda needs some content.

Agree'd.

Seems like a whole bunch of people are doing exams. Would anyone be interested in hosting it with me until Chickens! and Trumple are free? That is if we get it started before/during their exams.
isn't shoutpunch enough
[QUOTE=killa101;30222561]isn't shoutpunch enough[/QUOTE]
too much music
you should just audition to be a dj on shoutpunch, then you can have an hour block or so to do your podcast
Think of Shoutpunch is a music channel, and Facepod as a daily talk show.
I'd be glad to host with you Rogue.
If my mic seriously didn't JUST break today I'd absolutely love to be a part of this.
Goddamnit.
FacePod Episode #1:
*crickets chirping*
*faint fapping noise in background*
...So what games do you guys want to talk about?
If you ever need a guest or something, I'm open.
Does it have to be on itunes?
I love podcasts to death, lets hope this is actually good.

[QUOTE=Villein;30226830]Does it have to be on itunes?[/QUOTE]
I love using itunes (for podcasts only, really). What wouldn't you like about it? Is it too mainstream? It's just another alternate option for downloading.
[editline]3rd June 2011[/editline]
Also, ideas for the podcast:
1. Get a good band of people, and make it genuinly funny. Not facepunch chat "funny," but humor that anyone on the internet would enjoy.
2. Keep it mature, not just "lol diks thats what she said rotfl"
3. Frequency.
4. Change the name to something catchier, like Punchcast. That sounds a bit more cool.
5. Add bumpers to the sections, keep the podcast generally organized.
6. Maybe have a "thread events" section where you show notable threads in various sections of the forums?
I'm too socially awkward to be in the actual podcast but I'll listen to every episode and be a crazed fan :buddy:
I've done podcasts before, and I'm the talk-show manager of Shoutpunch.
Contact me.
I've created a semi-successful podcast called "Minecast", and I actually got Notch on the show at one point. Shame that we sort of died off after that episode.
I have plenty of experience with this sort of thing, and would gladly do it, but cannot do any recording of my voice. I would be completely willing to help out any other place in the production, like editing!

Consider it taken note of. How about PodPunch? That sounds better, I guess.
It would work if you got some good users involved
Take inspiration from this
