GlimmerCast

Wow...we're already done with the 4th episode of the GlimmerCast...unbelievable.

In this episode, Dustin and I discuss a myriad of topics, including:

Reviewing episode 3 (namely, our predictions of how particular events would transpire)
'Flipping through the Glimmerglass, which included a detailed piece on collegiate endowments
and a discussion on how chapel has been so far this year.

We also had recorded a segment of "If I were in charge", but technical difficulties put an end to that.
Below, you'll find a link to the list of endowments by college in 2007 if you want to take a look at that.

In the future we'll have more installments of our various segments, plus some new ones, and some guests on the show to diversify things.

ADDITIONALLY, take note of our LISTENER CHALLENGE! It's like the 3rd thing we talk about in the episode so just tune in and we explain the whole deal there.

Lastly, if you have a comment or want to get involved, shoot me an email at [email protected], or add us on facebook (search "glimmercast").

Make sure to subscribe in iTunes! It's the easiest way to stay connected.

Hey all!

Episode 3 is finally here, after taking a week off for the busy homecoming weekend.

This week we bring you a few new segments, and an actual news story.
Don't worry though, all the rumoring and speculation you've come to love is not lost.

In this episode you'll find:

Upcoming Events
(p)Reviews of events that have/are/will be/did happen/happening
New Segment: Flippin' Through the Glimmerglass
Big Sodexo news report and general discussion about recent drama regarding that
New Segment: If I were in charge
And quite a bit more in between.

Now, for those of you who tuned in last episode and heard me plug an interview with Jake Smith for the "Better Know a Major" segment, only to be let down by it's absence, I would like to apologize. I recorded the interview with him, but it just didn't turn out very well because I wasn't as prepared as I probably should have been. There are plans to re-record the interview and go forward with the segment as planned in a future episode.

Also, WE NEED YOUR FEEDBACK!

At this point in the game, we are still carving out our identity as a show. Do you like the informal format we have, or would you rather the show be quick and hard hitting news instead? Perhaps you would like to ditch the news portion all together and have the hosts practice their opera abilities. The only way we know is if you tell us, so send in your thoughts to me at [email protected], or leave a comment at the bottom of the blog.

Remember, you can always send in ideas or suggestions, and if you want to help out with the show, we really encourage that.

Lastly, if you're not subscribed on iTunes, go do that. It is the easiest way for you to stay in touch when there are new episodes out, because they'll automatically download for you. Just open the itunes store and search for "GlimmerCast." The podcast is the only result you (should) get, so just click subscribe and you're all set. It's totally free, and totally worth the 30 seconds it takes you.

In the future, watch for listener contests, new segments, and more. For now, continue to tell your friends about the show and make them listen to it if you like what you hear. Right now we are at around 50 subscribers, which is fantastic, but I know that we can do more than that, so let people know, ok?

One last note before I end this post, we've set up a new facebook page, so search for us on facebook and add yourself as a fan. That will be the easiest way to stay up to date with what's going on at Olivet and, more importantly, the GlimmerCast. Have a good one ; )
