Dave Slusher talks to me about his role in the VERY early days of podcasting and explains why his site is called EVIL GENIUS CHRONICLES.
We chat quite a lot about the directions, good, bad and ugly, that citizen media is going in. He also let’s me know what he thinks about TPN!
If you want to hear Dave’s thoughts on our chat POST the discussion, check out his podcast on it here.
Oh, and by the way, this show was recorded using Skylook, the awesome cool plug-in for Microsoft Outlook, based in Melbourne Australia.

Suw Charman is the Producer of BlogOn2005 which is happening at the Copa-Copacabana hotel in NEW YORK CITY on October 17 and 18, and she took some time our of her very busy schedule to chat with me about the agenda for the event. This is not going to be your usual “blogger love-in”, where A-list bloggers give each other the secret handshake and the rest of the crowd whimper and kowtow.
I guess now that Jason and Dave are mega-MEGA rich, we will have to kowtow to their body doubles in future?
Anyway… As I was saying, BlogOn isn’t one of THOSE events. This is an event for regular business people who want to understand what the hell they should be doing about this social media phemonenon that they keep hearing about.
BlogOn features some amazing speakers, including David Weinberger, Seth Godin, Steve Rubel, and some guy who likes to wear Elvis sunnies.
So, if you’re ready to find how social media is going to affect your business, reserve your place now.
You can register for BlogOn here.
Standard Registration (after September 15, 2005): $1,495

Hi TPN listeners and fans,
Between the 29th of September and the 3rd of October, The Podcast Network web site will be undergoing some major server work that will increase (fingers crossed) both the speed and the reliability of the service you have come to love and cherish 😉
Access to the web site and the functionality of the RSS feed will at best experience a small blip of down time… and at worst…well..it could vanish into the bermuda triangle that is tech land for upto four days. I have also had to switch of the ability to post comments on all the sites till we are fully operational as well.
Stick with us through this little hick-up and I promise we will return to normal transmission as quick as possible.
Thanks guys and gals…

Wow, the 50th G’DAY WORLD interview. How time flies.
And I couldn’t be happier with the subject of our 50th show – John Buckman, Founder and CEO of Magnatune, the hippest record label on the planet.
Magnatune is the record label with the motto “We Are Not Evil”.
The backstory is something like this: John was the CEO of a software company when his wife was signed as an artist to a indy record label and, from that dismal experience, they decided that they could do a better job and Magnatune was born in April 2003. Magnatune currently has 202 artists selling 418 albums. Listen to the show to check out their very cool business model.
Oh, by the way, John wants to write a book titled “How to Overthrow the Music Industry”.
You just know I’m going to like this bloke, right?
The track at the end of the show is called “Wreck of the Zephyr” and is by one of Magnatune’s artists, Houston-based DROP TRIO. Very funky sheeeit.
Oh, and by the way, this show was recorded using Skylook, the awesome cool plug-in for Microsoft Outlook, based in Melbourne Australia.
