Yes, I tend to look terminally bored, yes I am bloated, and YES I have bad teeth... if you can get beyond all that, please view my first rambling podcast:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAVM_nY5QJs

They will improve.  I hope.

Thanks Nigel.

I can show off my bacon wallet in a future podcast if it will keep those compliments coming...

Keep 'em coming, Hoops/Bawheed. I haven't had the guts to really dive into making my own video production(s) yet.

Also, nice Sacred Chao pendant. :wink:

Gotta show them I am a SRS DISCORDIAN.  Or else IANAR would come after me.

As soon as he does, I start bitching at him. So he can't.

Also, you don't sound bored but tired.  And you lave long eyelashes and very pretty eyes--couldn't really see the teefs.

Also also:  Vincent Verthaine, IIRC, sees Eris as a true deity in his life.

Awwww.  I miss seeing "Hoopla" though--such a great name.  Sigh.

Yeah, but Vince is a multi-dimensional badass.

I was tired.  It probably is a good idea to do them earlier.  Plus, my wife was in the other room and I was self conscious about being heard... I think I will do future ones while alone.

Good point, I forgot about Verthaine.  He would be perfect for podcasts I would imagine.

I like it a lot Hoopla!

I agree with p3nt, you do look kinda bored. I dunno how out-of-character it would be for you, but I'm reminded of TGRR's saying (or perhaps it's SubGenius dogma) "too much is nearly always better than not enough!". Better to appear overly enthousiastic, hyped, in rage, full of hate, spirited or whatever high-energy state, than not enough so. Remember, you're on camera, doing a performance, it's perfectly allright to overdo it a littlebit and perhaps get into a character somewhat. What would a BARON do? :)

Apart from that, I was a bit freaked out when you said "you're watching this right now, sitting in Chaos" -- HOW DID YOU KNOW??? :?

That's when I paused the vid to post this, I will now watch the rest :)

Oh, another thing, I saw Cramulus do in his Diabetics rant, at least I think he did it like that. Just record a much longer video than you actually publish. Redo bits of your speech a few times if you don't like it, or just wanna try out different ways of expressing it. Record everything, then cut out the duplicate bits and stuff you don't like. Make sure you have a second or so pause when starting another take, so you can use this "empty" video space to control the pacing a littlebit, if you cut it properly, the cuts won't seem unnatural. Maybe move to a different pose to signify there's been a cut, so you don't see just your mouth shift suddenly.
