Posted in Podcast, Uncategorized on March 2nd, 2010 by trickstermoon

You may be asking ‘Why are these crazy people podcasting? What makes them think they can do something like this?’ I know we ask ourselves that sometimes. So in Episode 02 we wanted to talk about the shows that first got us addicted to this crazy fun medium, and the people behind our favorite podcasts. This episode ran a little long because we were so enthusiastic about our podio-heroes and while I know we couldn’t be quite as eloquent as we would have liked, I hope you can hear and understand the love we feel for this people and shows they put out. Below is a little breakdown of the podcasts we talk about on the show (times listed are approximate).
