Recorder on the Wall - Redwall Review Podcast

[IronBoomer]

So, I've been on the Redwall subreddit on Reddit for a bit now, and been working with people there to develop a podcast. Our own administrator Matthias720, approached me and let me know about this community and I tapped him to be a part of the development process.

While I'm generally a veteran podcaster already, I've been working on making a podcast called "Recorder on the Wall" to go through the entire Redwall Franchise, books and cartoons. I'm proud to announce that we're very close to full fledged publication of the cast; and we're starting with the original first book, Redwall to start with.

We're going to do one episode per one "book" of each book in turn; and the animated series a few episodes at a time.
The plan is to cover the original novel, Mattimeo and perhaps Mossflower to set the stage of the greater world, and then go in chronological order after that.

One of the things I'm hoping to do is do community involvement, so have regular guests will be a thing; as well listening to your feedback as needed.

What we have right now is an Episode 0 - where myself, my normal podcasting partner, and Matthias720 discussed ideas for the show. So, we'd like your feedback and

Hey IronBoomer, this is really really cool! I'm listening to episode 000 right now. I'm really excited to pop in and listen to new episodes as they come out. So needless to say you've got 1 more fan

UPDATE: So the broadcast has one or two instances in which you guys venture into PG-13 territory. I heard you guys talking a little about if you want to keep podcasts strictly PG or if you don't want to restrict yourselves. Any update on that? I feel like it would be important to make a note of that considering some listeners may be very young.

Personally, I thought the podcast was great (so that's what @Matthias720 sounds like)! Looking forward to Episode 1!

Just Twitted about it on the official account. Looking forward to more

Ah, sorry! I didn't realize we went PG-13; suffice to say we will be stricter on ourselves in the future. I appreciate you taking the time to listen.
Our brother podcast that Jeremy and I also run is defintely PG-13 to R

[Groddil]

Literally everyone here is older than 13 anyway.

[Matthias720]

This podcast isn't just a RACF thing, Grod. It is intended for the whole ROC, and should be rated for more of a broad audience.

[Groddil]

Still. If the listeners are too young or immature for some adult themes or whatever really bad stuff made the podcast 13+, why are they reading a series as dark as Redwall?

[Matthias720]

Groddil, it isn't up to you to decide how this podcast is run, and trying to force things in a particular direction is hardly constructive feedback. If you have any other thoughts, please share them, but let this one go.

[IronBoomer]

Okay, we're back with the new episode.
Unfortunately, Matthias720 couldn't join us for this one, he'll be back for episode 2.

We get our first introduction to many of the series archetypes, character archetypes and arguably the worst (or at least one of the worst) villians in the series history. People included in this episode are Pete, Jeremy and new guest Drew. Intro/Outro Music is by: Cory Gray - Medieval Tension 30s.

[MeadowR]

Sounds good! Definitely going to have a listen to these.

[Luftwaffles]

Nice, mate!

[Matthias720]

That was great to listen to. I'm bummed I missed it.

[Ashleg]

I can't listen to something for an hour straight, but for what I heard it wasn't bad. Keep it up.

[Captain Tammo]

New episode?! I'm gonna sit down and listen to it probably on Wednesday. It'll give me a chance to do the rounds on the boards and check up on everything. I'll update my response then

UPDATE: Just finished listening to episode 1! I like the conversations that you guys have - all good stuff (and some good points in there that I haven't thought of before).

So are you guys going to be doing a single podcast for each part of each book?! That's a lot of episodes

How do you guys record these? Do you record them in bulk or separately?

[IronBoomer]

So yeah, folks.
We had a major technical issue with recording episode 2; it may be a few days behind next weekend.
