Episode #8 – Day of Debate

Equal Measure — Wed, 27 May 2009 05:31:58 +0000

Well, the CA Supreme Court has ruled, and for this episode we’ve put together a small panel to discuss the ruling and its results. Joining us this week are Chris from San Antonio, Matt from Houston, Meredith from Woodlands, Texas, and Jacob from Austin. This episode ended up having a lot of technical difficulties while recording, so the sound quality in places might be a bit lower than usual. Check the feed in a few days for the blooper reel!

Construction Ahead

Equal Measure — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 01:57:13 +0000

I’m reworking how the underlying RSS feed for the podcast operates. This might make the podcast become unavailable for a short while, or may even cause iTunes to redownload a few episodes. This should clear up soon.

Episode #7.5 – Still Alive

Equal Measure — Fri, 24 Apr 2009 04:16:12 +0000

Hey there. You’ve probably noticed that it’s been quite a while since the last episode of Equal Measure was released, and I’ve recorded this message to touch base and to explain what’s been going on.

Assembling the material and recording this podcast is a time consuming task, and while it’s rewarding work, there have been a number of things that have been keeping me from being able to write and produce episodes, not the least of which is the fact that I’ve been caught up in the final stages of completing a degree.

Aside from that, I’ve been trying to expand the scope and capabilities of my equipment, so when things get going again I’ll be able to make things more interesting and get voices on here other than my own. The way I’ve set things up I’ll be able to record phonecalls for the show and I’ve set up a skype voicemail box that listeners can use to leave feedback and messages. Just use skype to call EqualMeasure, one word, and you might even hear your own voice in the next episode.

One of the big things I hope to accomplish is to get a better variety of ideas and opinions on here, so really, feel free to use skype to leave a message, or email me your story at show@equalmeasurepodcast.com.

I’m looking forward to hearing from you, and I’ll be seeing you in the next episode.

Fear Not!

Equal Measure — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 21:17:47 +0000

Episode 8 is in the works and should be coming out in the next few ~~days~~ weeks. Also, we’ve set up a new way you can contact us: Skype voicemail. If you’d rather talk than type, go ahead and call the skype handle “EqualMeasure” and leave a voicemail message. Who knows, your voice might even end up on an episode!

Flyer #1

Equal Measure — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 09:07:16 +0000

The next episode’s getting delayed again, but I threw together a quick flyer for the podcast, figuring that it might be a good thing to have handy for promotion. You can download a high-quality of it by clicking here, so please, take a look, and tell me what you think.

Promo #1

Equal Measure — Fri, 13 Feb 2009 06:20:45 +0000

Still working on episode #6, should have it up in a couple of hours or so. In the meanwhile, here’s a thirty-second promo that I produced earlier in the week. Hopefully, it will be the first of several.

Delays

Equal Measure — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 01:40:50 +0000

Episode 6 will be delayed until tomorrow due to a combination of hellish allergies and unavoidable deadlines.

(Edit: Still congested and unintelligible. I’m going to give the allergies another day to go away.)

Holiday Break

Equal Measure — Mon, 29 Dec 2008 13:52:51 +0000

Equal Measure will be taking a break for the holidays and to install some new recording equipment. We will be back in one to two weeks. Thanks!
