Fresno Podcasting Awareness Month Is Here
What's a podcast you say? Well, go check out What's A Podcast and come back.
Alright, hopefully you now know what a podcast is; now why not check out some Fresno related ones.
Here are some brief words on Fresno's current podcasts:
Fresno's newest podcast is the ultimate for music geeks. These folks have some massive knowledge about music, but not in an elitist way. Devoya and DJ Bradley are very accessible and pro's at broadcasting. And, they are lucky enough to have Ried May making the whole thing sound perfect. You're guaranteed to learn something new about music or a band. Even with all of the different forms of media today, there is still a void in intelligent music discussions and this podcast fills it. I would even like to hear them talk more about music and have them play less. Decide for yourself at Libation.
FLOWING WITH FAMOUS
Hosted with the snarky hipness of Jarah and Malcom and engineered by the moonlighting Ried. The podcast is a great extension of the Fresno Famous website. "Flowing" has topical Fresno related guests and they love to play cuts from local artists discs - and, on occasion, have them play live. Go to Flowing right now!
Block some time, shoo the kids away and take in Fresno's most listened to (probably) podcast. Chris and Brad are the kingpins of local music. Apparently, they have the ability to get any local musician they want to appear; and Chris and Brad make it sound like they are best friends with them. A more focused show with guests playing live more would make for an ultimate Fresno musicians podcast, but then that would be less sound polluting. Listen up at Sound Pollution.
THE OL 1-2
This one may not be around anymore butThis seemed to be the most likely podcast to translate to Fresno's outside world. Dan Ramirez uses the podsafe music to play independent hardcore metal and punk with some occasional local flavor. I think it's gone but try The Ol 1-2.
Plenty of Fresno References, F-Bombs, Mr. Rude talk, games and idiocy. X rated and setup similar to a radio show. Bells and Mikey are heavy into playing games and talking about Fresno watering holes. Occasionally they drift from Fresno topics and into the Hollywood and music world. These fools are rarely serious, often entertaining but sometimes boring. It's the only podcast for nerds and Armos. Download some shows at Dorktown . Don't worry, nerdness isn't transmitted through mp3 files.
