Seeing the other podcast thread made me think how interesting it'd be to listen to an adventure's author and Dungeon editors give a sort of director's commentary on the adventure.
I'd like to hear about what they think works and maybe what they had to change from their original ideas. I'm sure there are some great stories behind the ideas of some of these adventures that most of us would never know otherwise.
Even just a follow-up article on this message board or on the Paizo website would be interesting. Sort of a post-mortem on the adventure.
I'd imagine I could listen to hours of Erik and James talk about some of the thought that went into creating the various adventure paths. I'm well aware that sounds really creepy, but I am very interested in the editorial process of this stuff.
Okay . . . . I sure I'm going to be mocked and ridiculed for asking this, but what is a podcast? the best I cast figure out is that it is ritual magic for a group of dolphin wizards.

ROFLMAO!
No, it's no arcane casting (well...sorta...), but it's more like an audio commentary, like the radio shows from the 50s and before. The "pod" part of it comes from the ubiquitous iPod - you could just as easily call it "audiocasting", but it isn't as catchy. :P

Yet more populist. Anyone with a modicum of software and know-how can record their own show to MP3, and post this to the internet. If you take the added step of registering your show with Apple, you get added to the iTunes podcast directory. From then on, any iTunes user can subscribe to your show, meaning that their software will check for new episodes of your show periodically, download them automatically, and transfer them to the user's iPod for listening at their convenience.
