I think most will find this show informative or at least entertaining. It was a little longer then we try to shoot for, but we felt in post production that the content was just way too good to cut out.

The next episode will feature Board of the Month along with Hacker of the Month.

ENJOY! :)

Some release notes: You may hear us talk about the "MySQL Dumper", we were going to add it in but the show would have been way to long so look for that in the next podcast. The Admin Zone has donated a feedback forum here (http://www.theadminzone.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=173).

I listened to all three episodes, and for a 'podcast' it wasn't that good. I think perhaps they should have made it slightly shorter, and perhaps tested how microphones and things sound FIRST before releasing it. As for the conversations....there were some nuggets that really were interesting, but all the in jokes and mock insults just kinda got annoying, and I stopped listening really.

I made the same assessment after listening to about 5 or 6 minutes of the first. However, I think the main interviewer does a good job. He just needs to be able to set the tone better and break away from the sillyness and get back on topic better. Like Leno and Lettermen and others do when a guest goes on a tangent.

I have not had time to listen to more. But I expect improvement as they have potential. Whether the market is interested remains to be seen no matter what the quality though.

How's distribution or traffic with the broadcasts?
