The fourth podcast produced by the participants of the Ragan Communications “Communicating with the Wired World” workshop—today in Chicago, Illinois—has an interviewer (Patricia Troumpoucis of HSBC North America) talking to four other participants and me about our favorite horror movies (it is, after all, Halloween!). As always, the idea here to show participants how drop-dead easy it is to produce a podcast. Using a portable digital recorder, the interviewer wanders the room to do the interviews. I pull the WAV file into Audacity on my laptop, edit and add opening and closing music, save to MP3, add ID3 tags and post here. The class watches it all on the screen.

The first episode, with participants from San Francisco, dealt with where to eat in SF.
The second episode, with participants from New York, dealt with the worst job you ever had.
The third episode, with particpants from Washington, D.C., dealt with the worst boss you ever had.

The “horror movie” podcast is 1.59 MG MP3 file runs 3:29.
