Announcing....

The First Ever Custom PC podcast!

Yes, you can now hear our voices through the magic of the interwebs. Have a listen for some top quality discussion of GeForce 8800 GTS 320MB, cheap Core 2s, Vista, the games charts, those Mac and PCs ads, plus a competition with CPC swag as prizes. And all at a price that can't be beat - FREE.

To subscribe in iTunes, click here.

Or to subscribe in another podcast program, like the excellent open-source, multi-platform Juice, simply direct it to our feed address, which is http://feeds.feedburner.com/CustomPc.

Enjoy

We've now released 26 episodes of the Custom PC podcast, all of which are available free to download via iTunes.

At the moment, it's been three months or so since the last one - and the main reason has been the work we've been doing on working with bit-tech. Not only has there been a lot of organisational stuff to sort out, it's also the case that the method we use for putting out the podcasts on the old CPC site won't work on bit-tech.

We do intend to get back into the podcasting game, though, and of course, now that we're working with bit-tech, there'll be the chance to hear from the bit team - Tim, Richard, Joe and Harry - as well as the usual CPC cast. So stay tuned

I <3 CPC Podcast..

von_stylon · 23rd Apr 2009, 15:24

me too, been stuck with techreports cast for a while now and they just do your head in after a while

Sifter3000 · 23rd Apr 2009, 15:29

It'll be good when it's back. Shure very kindly donated four excellent microphones so it no longer sounds quite as lofi as before. We've also got a few bits recorded so it will probably be quite long...

I know! And you can post massive images of tumbleweed that won't break the forum! It just ain't like the old days

l3v1ck · 23rd Apr 2009, 23:01

Well it would be rude of me not to pester you here as well as on teh CPC forums.

Where's 27? We've been waiting ages..

Sifter3000 · 23rd Apr 2009, 23:08

You see, I think the problem was that we implied we'd just keep doing them regularly. Instead, thinking of them as like a TV series! So we've had series 1, then there was a break, we had series 2, which takes us to 26, and soon, series 3 will be here

Just as long as the break isn't as long as the one between Red Dwarf series 8 and Red Dwarf Back To Earth.

As I said just before the CPC forums were so rudely deleted, I need some inflight entertainment for my trip to Libya in a few weeks.
Bribes are being offered to get it done in time.

Btw l3v1ck, your a rebel, but your no traitor

I miss the podcast

stuartpengs · 24th Apr 2009, 22:42

Roll on 27.

NethLyn · 25th Apr 2009, 15:44

They can take as long as they like, I've got 19 to 26 queued up in iTunes, fell behind and have to catch up!

Bindibadgi · 25th Apr 2009, 16:02

I'm actually editing an Energy Drinks #2 one this weekend. It's not CPC #27, but it is a few of the guys you know

(plus a ... girl! OMG!)

I'm hoping to slice in some pictures to make a podcast-slideshow type youtube thing.. we'll see how it turns out. Learning Adobe Audition and Première Elements 7 should be fun.

Mankz · 25th Apr 2009, 16:11

You really need me and my intelectual banter and husky voice to get a decent podcast Bindi..

Otherwise, you is doomed to fail.
