We have spoken about how we do it in a casual way, but it's really quite easy. We all use Skype over our computers. So, I'm in Mass, Joni in Houston and Megan in LA and our guests are wherever they are. I record the conversation into my computer and edit the file using a software called Audacity. Editing is for sound levels, time and ums and silences only. I don't rearrange conversations (too much work!)and rarely edit out sections. The file is converted to an MP3 file and uploaded to a site called Podbean, which creates the sound player file, which is what we paste into the blog. It also uploads to iTunes. <br /><br />We usually record on Monday nights, or at a time convenient to our guests where possible, and recording usually take place within a week of posting them, often within a day or two. The exception has been Stephen Drucker, whom we chatted with in early December, but decided to hold off posting till the first week in January since everyone was more concerned with the holidays at that point. <br /><br />You'll have to ask our guests if they all read our blogs, but usually, they've all been at least familiar with one of us. Or someone on their staff or PR group knows of us. When we started, we asked fellow bloggers whom one or more of us were already connected to - we just considered ourselves lucky that anyone would take the time to do this! Each of us has brought our various connections to the table (so to speak!)Most of our guests have been the result of personal connections of one of the three of us. Some, like Vicente Wolf, we simply sent an email asking - although at the time he had Cote de Texas and BB8 on his blogroll. And, since we've been lucky enough to have such amazing people on, we're getting more and more inquiries from PR people as well. Since we only post 4 times a month and we want to keep at least 1, preferably 2 weeks for just us (we don't only want to be an interview show) it's getting harder to schedule people and we're ending up being more selective simply because of time. But we're open to any ideas and suggestions! We all learn so much from these conversations and there are so many interesting professionals out there in so many areas of the design field. <br /><br />Hope this answered your question.Linda Merrillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07484402027814646865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3350982326967242853.post-84059587391463318422009-12-31T09:50:16.371-08:002009-12-31T09:50:16.371-08:00A little off topic from the Christmas giveaway, bu...A little off topic from the Christmas giveaway, but I have often wondered from listing to the SRT interviews how you go about selecting your guest? Also, do your guest read your design blogs? How far in advance of the podcast, do you record the interview and how is that accomplished. It would be interesting to learn about what goes on behind the scenes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3350982326967242853.post-43128884706206429642009-12-22T13:36:04.357-08:002009-12-22T13:36:04.357-08:00Thank you Ladies!
