Indeed! Frown - a local musical peer of mine joined me for brunch today and raised the fact that every time we attend a record show, attendees have told me that I should really start a radio show or podcast. They've commented that I've a great voice for radio and that the conversational dynamic between my friend and I would make for an engaging listen. He is somewhat of an authority on space rock, 90s noise, and stoner rock/metal, while I am better-equipped to speak on my own genres of expertise. There is a sufficient overlap of our interests that would make conversation productive.
He romanticizes the halcyon days of NPR and other public radio programs which offered a communal ritualistic "fireside chat" sort of experience and invited me to collaborate with him on that sort of a project, (web-based or otherwise). The key idea is that the community at large has no attention span for long-form article reading in the age of rapid-fire social media, and that a podcast might have a greater accessibility for a larger listener base.
Any thoughts?
