DFB Podcast Soft Opening

So my earlier podcast poll indicated that many of you don't listen to podcasts, but for those who do, or for those who'd like to listen to this particular podcast, I wanted to let you know:

I am co-hosting the Disney Food Blog's podcast and we're "soft opening" it to make sure all our stuff works before we send it out to everyone. If you'd like to listen here's the link to the first episode:

http://www.dfbpodcast.com/episode1-jaunts/

You can play it in your browser, download it to your computer, or listen to it on your phone. Let me know what you think!

How cool! My very first podcast!

You guys sound soooo natural - it's like having a normal conversation with you & AJ. I loved it!

But who says "eerea" for "area"?? Hahahaha.

@JeffC -- Ha ha! Thanks for your feedback! We're still a little rough around the edges, but are super excited about the podcast! If you have any suggestions, let us know.

@Ritty and @Mase -- Let us know what you think!

I liked listening for sure! It was a good length, not too long or too short for the topic and you covered all the parks (and more). Not much to say in a negative light, mostly Brad's sound quality was a little echo-y but not super distracting.

I'd love to hear more insider tips/tricks and secrets! Whether its from you guys or have listeners write in. A lot of the information I'm reading off of websites is great but sometimes a little outdated. Feedback from people who've been recently to WDW or DL would be awesome!

So far I did enjoy the banter between you two, so keep it up!

@Ritty -- Great feedback! Yes; we've gotta get Brad's echo-y voice under control! I think we're going to drape him in blankets for the next episode.

@Athenna -- Let us know what you think!

I am a noob when it comes to podcasts but I thought it was very interesting AND at a length that did keep your attention.

@Vettelover, thank you so much for listening and giving your input. We'd definitely appreciate any suggestions/ideas.

@JeffC -- If we go through with it, will do. Maybe we'll just pack him in a box of foam peanuts.

AJ & Brad, awsome podcast! Love it. Love the tone of your voices together. If you could just get rid of some of the echo, but great job. Looking forward to listening to more.

I was SUPER going to say the same thing!

I loved it! It was my first podcast too - how fun! I loved how conversational it was, but I also learned something. We are sooooo going to Trail's End on our very next visit to MK!

Brad, do you know how DFB will come up with subjects for the podcasts? Will AJ be taking suggestions from readers?

I really liked both podcasts... I'm pretty sure when I'm done typing this I will head into the kitchen after hearing about all that delicious food!

This is not that far from what I wound up doing to defeat the echo.

Thanks for all the feedback everyone! Be sure to let me know if you have any ideas/questions/suggestions! We've been really overwhelmed by all the positive feedback!
