Welcome to the start of whatever holiday weekend this is.  I always forget, but then again my only focus is “three day weekend”.

Spent the week while not working looking for loops, audio tracks, stingers, and the like for podcasting.  Yeah, I get kinda focused when I find something new.  Sorry.  I’d LOVE to buy Apple’s “Logic Studio”, not so much for the software but for the 15,000 or so audio tracks in the box.  It’s the $500 price tag which dissuades me at this point.

99% of the tracks in the Logic studio would more than likely be useless crap (like a piano hitting a “c” key) but I find that when I get into a hobby, I start collecting.  Whether it’s firearms, D&D, castle building, or whatever.  It’s the reason that hobbies for me are usually financially deadly pastimes.

Anyway…  The next problem I face about podcasting is having anything to talk about (sorta like this blog post, huh?)..   What I’ve found by listening to other podcasts for inspiration is that they’re either structured like a meeting (they have an agenda), or they’re free-form talking about a specific subject between two or more people.

Since I don’t have a ” ‘cast mate “, that leaves me with writing scripts or talking points, and frankly I feel the need to focus on something.  I just don’t know what…  movies?  riding? Days of our Lives?  The ideas are endless, the ability to decide is not.

Then again, honestly, I could just do three separate podcasts, one on each subject that interests me and tie them together as part of “the SegWayne Radio Network” like a local, non-syndicated DJ on the radio here does.   That however would quickly turn a fun brain exercise into more like work.  Since I’m a member of the world’s oldest profession, meaning that I’m a capitalist, working for free is hardly appealing.

If anyone listening knows of a good source of audio tracks (mostly intros, stingers, and the like), please chime in and let me know.  Otherwise, I’d also accept the kindly donation of Apple Logic Studio if you happen to be an extremely bored millionaire who gets your jollies from granting wishes to talentless hacks with desire to be something different. 

Enjoy your weekend.
