Looking for co-hosts for a retro/contemporary gaming podcast

Post by Satoshi_Matrix »

I'm looking for get that retro and contemporary gaming podcast I told you guys about off the ground. I'd rather not do a solo podcast and as such, I'm looking for one, maybe two other retro gamers to chime in.

Here's a list of criteria that I'm looking for:

-Must have at least semi-decent quality recording mic and pc of specs good enough to record.
-Must be available at least once a week to record a podcast, preferably at the same time each week to allow for consistency.
-Must have some knowledge of retro gaming, but you don't have to be an expert or anything.
-Must have Skype


The format will go like this:

1. Introductions

2. Games you've been playing that week (all hosts share)

3. Mini game review - talk about a specific game, co-hosts can ask questions or share experiences or give their thoughts. Each host gives a mini game review each week. Again, you don't have to be an expert, all you need to do is be able to talk about a given game for a few minutes. Can be retro or
modern, anything goes.

4. Tech talk. Depending on who I get as a co-host(s) this may change. The basic idea I have is that I give audio tutorials of fairly simple mods like disabling a toaster NES' lockout chip or perhaps talk about different controllers for a given system and debate with are the best. Eventually this may even turn into answering listeners questions regarding fixing various problems or something like that.

5. Recent pick ups - each host talks about if they've bought or found anything game related that week.


So if you think you have think you meet the criteria I'm looking for and have something to add to the conversation, then shoot me a pm. The most important thing is that you'll be available.

Thanks!

If you have a lot of people wanting to chime in, perhaps you could be the main host and have a different co-host every week or something?

This sounds like a great idea, although if S_M doesn't want to do this, we'd need to find a main host.

I rather like that! That way I can decide who I have the best chemistry with and who would work as regular hosts, or simply guest hosts. By all means, anyone who wants to be at least a guest host on the podcast pm me. I want to record an episode this weekend, either friday or saturday.

If you want to appear, you should make sure you fit the criteria I listed in my initial post and also think up of a bit of an introduction of who you are and you're gaming tastes. If you want to appear, it would also be great if you had a specific game you wanted to talk about.
