Holy Cow!!

Tag: ShowsScott @ 10:05 am

I am behind two shows?

Say it ain’t so!!!

Well, the good news is 77 has been up for a while and 78 went up today.

Links at the bottom of this post as always. But here is a bit of a news update.  Between the election in the US and the time change also, the recording of the shows has been a bit on the precarious side. (hope I spelled that correctly, and YEAH New President soon!) We are still shooting for the weekly shows, but lately it has been tough to hit that mark. We are still striving to keep up that pace as much as possible, but we ask for your patience and support while we flounder around a bit.

Truely, Thank you for all your support over the last couple of years. We both really appreciate it. We do have a favor to ask though. We want to start getting a few more interviews, the have been a bit rare lately and we definitely miss doing them. Of course our format for them will probably be a bit different, but hey, progress right?  So, that favor…. Tell us who you want us to try to interview. Go crazy, anybody related to education is fair game. Also, what do you want us to ask?

We’re looking forward to hearing from you, leave us a note in the comments or a voicemail over at MyChingo there on the right or even a video comment! :)   Thanks for helping out!  Now on to the regular stuff at the bottom of the show posts :) -S

Drop me a note or comment if you have any questions!

As always, the feed for the show is in the right side links or, if you want, you can catch them here.

The YouTube project is going well!

I am trying an experiment with the pacing of the posting of shows…… You believe that right? Of course you do, it wouldn’t be just because I was just slow…..

Teacher Training vs. Grey’s Anatomy – Show 72

Tag: ShowsScott @ 6:04 pm

We’re back!!! look out! (ok,ok, out of order, deal with it)

Yes, we are full force, still messing with the audio. We are almost there, but still have a few yards to go for the first down. Lots and lots of news in here, or at least a little news and lots of rambling about it.

When we finally get down to business we look at teacher training and how methods are taught.

Drop me a note or comment if you have any questions!

Show 73

Tag: ShowsScott @ 5:58 pm

The short 73 is up!

It is only about 15 minutes and is primarily a sound test as well as a new round up.

I was worried about the levels, but I have been told that the episode is actually safe for headphones.

so enjoy that one!!

Stupid time change

Tag: GeneralScott @ 12:31 pm

Hi everybody!
Hope you enjoyed number 77.
Scott and I are working on 78, it should be a good show. Currently we are getting hammered by the time change. Funny how just an hour difference can cause such a big problem.

Anyway, we will be posting 78 soon.
Keep an eye out and keep the comments coming!!!

A new comment system

Tag: GeneralScott @ 9:22 pm

For our comment friends,

We now have a new comment system provided by disqus (pronounced “discuss”). It’s pretty cool because once you login to the system, you are logged into all disqus sites and best of all, comments are threaded! Plus they have video comments! SWEET!

I’m kind of excited about it. I know, geek, right?
