Hello! If you got here from the link I emailed out to my Toastmasters club, please click the “Play” button on the left side of the audio playback bar at the bottom of this post to listen to this episode!

Show Notes:

Recommended reading before Saturday’s talk is this article from Podcast411, one of the earliest online podcast directories. (It’s primarily of historical interest, as it dates from April 2005, but it makes a good basis for comparison with the present-day podcasting landscape.)

DDoP 2018 Ep07: Thread Snippings 030: Waste Not, Want Not

Amelia Bowen

August 7, 2018

Today’s episode is named after an old-fashioned saying because it demonstrates why that saying exists. In this episode, I talk about my creative use of an abandoned ‘alpha version’ of one of my existing costume pieces to fill a previously-unforeseen need.

Show Notes:

DDoP 2018 Ep05: Amy Talks About Stuff 034: What’s So British About Star Wars?

Amelia Bowen

August 5, 2018

The first big event that I was looking forward to in August happened on Sunday afternoon, August 5. That day, I co-presented a panel discussion at one of my local nerd conventions. One of my nerdy friends and I gave a presentation on Star Wars, focusing on the British actors, directors, set designers, and other filmmaking creative types who helped make it what it is. The presentation was 45 minutes long, but I only recorded what I thought were the most interesting 15 minutes or so for Dog Days of Podcasting.

Show Notes:

I’m sorry about the sound quality. This was recorded using the tiny pinhole mike on my phone, in a big, open conference room, where my voice was already being amplified through a set of concert-style speakers. I tried to edit the sound file to make the words somewhat easier to hear before I uploaded it to my personal site.
