andreww Posted October 12, 2006 Report Posted October 12, 2006 (edited) REPLICAST Episode #1 is now on the air! Feel free to send topics or links to threads that you feel should be discussed. The first episode was really just a primer for newbs, but I feel that segments like the "new releases" and "technical info" will be regular features. I do need your help though, as I would like to cover topics like reluming, servicing, etc. Also, reviews of watches that you have received would help greatly. I'm starting to put together show notes for the second episode, so feel free to contribute!

jraines87 Posted October 12, 2006 Report Posted October 12, 2006 Damn, I guess I'll have to delete my Gwar collection to make room
fitmic Posted October 12, 2006 Report Posted October 12, 2006 GWAR's album "America must be destroyed" must be one of the better albums from the last millennium!!!

andreww Posted October 13, 2006 Author Report Posted October 13, 2006 Hiya Andrew! I'm going to assume you want honest, truthful feedback. :-) I think the idea is stellar! It's a great concept, esp for No0bs. The Audio isn't bad and you worked thru the material quite well. The biggest issue is this: Watch Collecting, be it reps or otherwise is almost entirely a VISUAL thing. People want to drool over the latest jewel and imagine it on their wrsit. they want to see the movement work and just stare at it for hours. (admit it guys, we've all done this. It's why we buy mechanical watches for god's sake) I;'m sure the MAc geeks have a software app that allows you to stitch photos, or even video into the cast, much like MS Producer or the upcoming DVD Maker in Windows Vista. sure, it's more work, but imagine if The Zigmeister's tutorials were in this format!! Make this project visual and you'll have a total home run! Thanks for the idea. Wouldn't be overly difficult to do!

Pugwash Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 REPLICAST Episode #1 is now on the air! I'm downloading it as I type, but was wondering why you're not using a proper host. When I'm not Pugwash, but my secret identity, I've been podcasting for over a year and found the whole hosting thing rather easy.
mikellem Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 I agree with rongons, You need to add pictures, and pictures and more pictures! Great start though! I like the idea very much.

andreww Posted October 13, 2006 Author Report Posted October 13, 2006 what the hell is a panAri? ^^ LOL! Always wondered how its pronounced? There's no AD in Toronto so I have only seen the name Panerai in print on the web. Fill me in, how do you say it!

OiRogers Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 Congrats Andreww... you've managed to make me turn off my XMradio for the first time in about 8 monthes... My wife is thrilled... At least for the next 30 minutes or so

OiRogers Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 Nah... Howards on Sirius (isn't he?)... I keep listening to the Punk station... I refuse to grow up. Still have the black leather jacket with various socially ill-fitting band logos painted upon it. As the T-shirt my wife made me says..."Aging Punk" I'm in denial... I'm only 29... I'm still a "youth" right?... damnit I'm getting old, joints all hurt when I get up in the morning... hearing is a bit off from years of shooting firearms and playing guitar and bass in various punk-rawk bands.
andreww Posted October 13, 2006 Author Report Posted October 13, 2006 You only get old when you feel you have to start dressing and looking your age! People say Mick Jagger and Rod Stewart look old, but the are the youngest looking 70ish year olds I've seen!
True-Stu Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 Hi Andrew ( you hoser). I listened to your podcast last night. Being a noobe and all, I thought it was great. I dug the Rush music in the background - Yes, you surely are from the Peoples Republic of Kanukistan (aka Canada) . I'm your neighbor just across the St. Lawrence River in the 1000 Islands region of New York, so it's pretty easy for me to "take off.. to the Great White North"...eayh!? ..you hoser. Keep up the good work. I'll be waiting for the second installment. Best Regards, Stuart
andreww Posted October 13, 2006 Author Report Posted October 13, 2006 The Rush tune was my little homage to Geddy, Alex and Neil who used to play highshools in my area when I was a kid, and to By-Tor who I know is a big Rush fan!
andreww Posted October 13, 2006 Author Report Posted October 13, 2006 No complaints, so I'm assuming the new host is working out okay?
andreww Posted October 13, 2006 Author Report Posted October 13, 2006 Thanks for all the kind PMs people!
