Zedcast043FromMy Friends I am constantly blown away by the thoughtfulness and generosity of the podcast community. Todays Zedcast was produced entirely by my Friends. I knew nothing about it until I woke up early this morning to get some work done before the kids got up and found this in my GMail. It is without a doubt one of the sweetest, most thoughtful things I have ever received for my birthday.

I have been heartsick over the lack of activity in the Zedcast feed. It is not for lack of inspiration or want of muse. It is purely a Time & Priority thing. I am writing notes and recording snippets constantly. But none has ever reached the point of show-ness. During the first year, I put off my (paid) work, my family, and my running group to produce the Zedcast. During the second year I tried to do it all and put off my health as well. This year I have spent more time with my family, gotten back to regular marathon training, and my business is flourishing. This has left little time for anything else.

I will be back at the show in some form after Dec 5, but I know better than to make any promises beyond this.

I am still subscribed to over 200 podcasts and listen all day long. And the friends represented here are always at the top of my listening list, though I don't tell them often enough.

Thank you for a wonderful birthday gift!

Katherine & Rob, Ken, Chris, James, Ted, Sylvain, Sage, Dave & Isabelle, Mark, Cat & Bob.

Zedcast Short Announcement Greetings Zed Heads! This is just a short announcement to let you know that as I transfer audio files from one hosting service to another you may experience additional downloads of older Zedcast episodes (numbered from 001-039). Please listen or delete them as you wish with my apologies. The feed should settle down after a few days.

I am on vacation for the next two weeks and will be releasing several new Zedcast episodes, (numbered 040 and up), including audio and video from Podcasters Across Borders 2007, new stories and the long promised Podcasters Across Canada. Stay tuned and Happy Canada Day to my fellow countrymen, and Happy Independence Day to our friends and neighbours in the United States.

I See Zed People... I went to a podcaster meet-up a few weeks back that was hosted by Jeff MacArthur, co-host of the wildly popular CommandN video podcast. Also attending were Steve Dinn from SpineRadio.com, Chris Campbell from CommandN and Bad Metaphor, Rob and John from EMS Live and Steve from unTV. Amber MacArthur also attended for a short time through video chat. I gave our host a Zedcast T-Shirt and was flattered to see, on the next episode of CommandN, Jeff wearing the "I see Zed People" shirt during his segment.

Zedcast 039 The Magic Bus Greetings Zed Heads! I'm back from vacation with a tale of many buses (and micro-buses).  My father contributes a story about a family trip when I was four.  I get up on my soap box for a rare rant against government sanctioned killing. I'll introduce a new segment to this Canadian Podcast.  And we'll top that all off with some podsafe travel music.

Thanks to Maurice Zondag from Sunday Sundown for the show ID!

Zedcast 038 SSSSSSSmokin' When I was 23 years old I sat down and wrote a list.  It was a list of "Everything that I wanted to do before I died, but was putting off until... someday". And I realized that 'someday' was never going to come unless I started doing some of those things today.  Over the next several weeks I'm going to tell you about some of the things on The List. Some that I have accomplished, and some that I'm still working on.

 Today on The List: #1 Quit  Smoking

Intro ID by The Philosophy Guy
That Time of the Month by Rob from Podcast 411

Music:
"Parsley" by Dave from Chub Creek
Mountain Coffee Breakdown" by The Muckland Crooners
