It looks like I have missed posting the last few episodes over here, but we've just hit our one year anniversary!

Episode 14 includes an interview with homebrew NES developer Derek from Gradual Games, creator of Nomolos: Storming the Catsle.

As always, you can find the show at www.collectorcast.com, as well as searching Collectorcast on YouTube.

Thanks to our listeners for a great first year, and if you've not given it a listen yet, join us!

I'm interested in taking a listen to the pod cast but I'm wondering if there is a method to download it as a MP3? I don't have an iPod and can't be streaming stuff at work.

I'll be honest: the length of these episodes keeps me from tuning in, even on topics I find interesting. I listened to the first few episodes, but then they got long. I feel like a show that hits the 2 hour mark usually drags a bit and has a lot of "filler" (I've not been able to sit through any/many podcasts extending much past that) and these are often 2-3 times that long or more :(

What do you envision as the typical listening experience? At once? In chunks? Is a significant portion of the show still reviewing/discussing listener pick ups or the RFG finds threads? I know you have a good following with what you do, but I feel like if you varied your approach/length more you may pick up a wider audience (including me).

I'll have to (unfortunately) agree. Personally, I listen to podcasts on my commute. And I stream them - which means it's not easy to just pick up where I left off since I don't have them stored as files on my phone. Because of this, in many cases if a show (any show) is over 45 mins... I only hear 45 mins of that episode. Because of the length of the Pick-Ups segment on Collectorcast I've tended to miss a lot of recent episodes since I'd have been interested in the actual topics, but not as interested in hearing 45 mins of pick-ups. I *think* I had suggested on the official RFGen forum thread for the show that perhaps the show should be split into Pick-Up episodes and Topic episodes. Even if you guys recorded both at the same time but then just split it into two mp3's.
