Jayson pointed me to Blog Talk Radio which is a sort of a free podcast/call-in-radio hybrid hoster/distributer/archiver.
Is there any interest in this little corner of the blogosphere is a series of 5GW themed call-in podcasts with a blog post for follow-up discussion?
I am thinking I could host episodes each with a different 5GW topics and a different co-host or guest for each episode (the focus would be on the guest or topic, not on me). Episodes could be about thirty to sixty minutes.
What do you think? Any topic suggestions for episodes? I am assuming a five episode series to begin with.























I’d be quite interested. The whole theory needs to be fleshed out a bit more, and I think the audio medium would be fertile ground.

Some thinking: If it’s going to be done it’s got to come out full force and not something adhoc. If its tied into SWJ, Barnett, Robb, ThreatsWatch, DNI, Richards, Lind, etc it could be potentially big and be beneficial for everyone involved.
If its ad-hoc or hosted by Blog Talk, it loses some credibility off the bat. I’ll do some more thinking over the next week on how to best put a package together that starts with a hell of a bang and matches the high quality of the people involved.

Ok Shlok. You are thinking bigger (and better) then I was. I’ll wait until I see with what you come up with before I proceed (or don’t proceed).
