News Update is the title of my new weekly show. Some of you may know that I run a website called highwaytimes.com but I just started doing a weekly audio news show with my friend:

Just some feedback for the 11-18-08 episode:

The original 'Greenback' was a fiat currency which was not backed by gold or silver, but it was issued by the US Treasury, not the central banks and thereby free of interest in order to finance the Civil War. After the assassination of Lincoln these US Notes were backed by monetary metals though the Gold Standard was temporarily suspended several times to finance other wars or pay large debts.

Ok, thanks for pointing that out. Maybe I can do an addendum. I seemed to have some problems with the sound this time. I think it might have something to do with Windols. I am going to try recording the next one on the Ubuntu box.

I am trying to make the show as much pure news as I can fit in under an hour and thirty minutes minimum.

Hey, if I can get Asterisk up and running, would you like to be on the show? I want to do a conspiracy theory show as well because it would be fun and I don't think we would ever run out of subjects to talk about.

Good show, man!

A good mix of different stories on the last episode. Thanks also for the plug!

The only possible quibble I could raise (purely in the interest of constructive criticism) would be that you might want to move the microphone a little further away from your mouth, or invest in a pop shield, or make one:

http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-make-a-very-cheap-homemade-pop-filter/

Unless you're using a headset, in which case, just get some foam rubber and affix it to the mic boom with a rubber band (use the sort of stuff that comes with computer components)

Hope that helps and please keep up the show!

Awesome, thanks! I was actually trying to figure out a setup for a pop shield. I had thought to use wire and attach it to the mic but I like the instructables idea too. This is a pretty low budget production for right now but I am working on three interviews for future episodes with people you might actually know, like politicians, movie/tv stars, and others.

Originally I wanted to do it Rolling Stone magazine style but there is just so much news today.
