New Podcast For 2014 – Guests & Contributors Needed

GS-Podcast-1small

Happy belated New Year! Firstly, a huge thanks to those that have listened to my Christmas Podcast ‘experiment’ and sent some kind words my way.  The amount of downloads and positive feedback has far surpassed my expectations.  Some rather unpleasant pro-sprout fanaticism aside, it’s been fun.

Podcasting was a learning curve but I plan to use my experiences to produce a better, bigger, more entertaining and engaging show for 2014. I’m hoping to release it fortnightly/monthly, blending humour, news, guides, debates and interesting guests.

Using new equipment & new techniques, I’m hoping there will also be a noticeable improvement in sound quality & production value.  I have set early February as a tentative date to kick off the new run of episodes, so if you haven’t already, please subscribe via iTunes, Stitcher or YouTube.

This is now where you wonderful primates come in*.

Do you have something to say that may be of interest to others? Click here to answer a few questions and be considered as a guest for the show.

Do you have an idea for a recurring feature that you would like to be a regular correspondent for? Perhaps you are involved in something that is ongoing, whereby you could check-in with frequent reports? Contact me and let me know.

Perhaps you’re musically inclined and have some songs, either sincere, or comedic that you wish to share? Contact me and let me know.

Do you have any suggestions or ideas for what you would like to hear from a heathen focused podcast? Perhaps you have some guest suggestions? Let me know in the comments section below.

If you enjoyed the Christmas Podcasts and would like to get behind a new regular show, you can help to support it in other ways too:

The current cost to me for providing these shows as free to download is £110/$180US per year.  By making a small donation (or massive – I’m not fussy) you can help to supplement these costs and make the hours spent planning, recording and editing more economically viable.

You can also help by listening, reviewing, subscribing, rating and sharing my show via Stitcher, iTunes and YouTube.

A combination these actions enables the show to climb their respective charts, bypassing evangelical religious content and placing atheistic voices right in amongst the piety.  I doubt they will enjoy that.

I look forward to hearing from you.

  • If you’re after a theme song for the podcast, have you considered Frank Turner’s “Glory Hallelujah” ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbUCzUk84fE )? Not sure about potential copyright issues, but he’s on Twitter, so if you drop him a line he might give you permission – plus it could win you a new celebrity fan, open up a new audience in the process, etc.

    Best of luck with it, look forward to hearing them whatever you decide to do!

    • Oh, I absolutely love this song, you’re the first person I’ve heard of who has even heard of it bar me 🙂 I agree, this would be a brilliant theme song, really catchy.

  • Hi
    Just wondering if you have anyone who is knowledgable about Islamic doctrine – ie. Koran, Hadith and Sunna (words and actions of Muhammed) who would be willing to be on your podcast? What I’m mainly thinking is that there really should be an atheist who is researching these things without bias (I am these days but far from done yet). Someone who is willing to explain the doctrine from the “Kaffir” point of view sort of. Or the woman’s point of view, or from a gay person’s point of view or a Jew’s point of view (since these are the minorities within Islam that seem to get the most hate). It would be very interesting if you and someone you’re talking to are sort of bouncing around stuff that is actually written in the doctrine itself. I for one is tired of having self-proclaimed “experts” telling me what Islam is about…. I don’t trust anything that comes from Imams or apologists for example. Just cold, hard facts of the doctrine itself.
    Let me know what you think of this idea – although I’d understand if you can’t/won’t do it….. since it’s a touchy thing these days.
    All the best and keep going, you’re good at this 🙂
