Doc Searls Is Podcasting

Email This Entry

Posted by Alex Williams

Doc Searls is podcasting. Read the show notes at his "podblog." Isn't that a great portmanteau? Is it a portmanteau if the words put together come from different portmanteaus?

Doc starts the show with his son, who says: "It is working," when he realizes they are actually recording and the music can be heard. Nice.

Doc goes on to talk about the music he is playing in the podcast from the late Danny Gatton Cruisin' Deuces.

"Its a perfect pound on the steering wheel song," Doc says.

They go on to talk about the music. Doc says over and over that he would so like to have the rights to play Danny Gatton over his podcast and promote the heck out of him.

It's just like hearing two people talk. But the added bonus is hearing Doc's son, who you can tell is a young guy, just hanging out with his Dad.

"You should have been a drummer," his son says. "You should have been but you are not."

Heh.

"I have to start podcasting," Doc says. "It just has to be done. I'm a radio guy."

No doubt. Doc is definitely a radio guy. He's a natural born podcaster.

Doc -- you like to quiz us about photos you show on your blog. What is the name of the tunnel that you have in the header of the podblog? Where is it? Anyone know?

Hey, thanks.

The tunnel is a default theme from the pile of them at Wordpress. I want to substitute one of my own.

I suspect, for no reason other than instinct, that the tunnel is somewhere in
Europe.
