Guest speaker: Alan Neal, host of CBC's Bandwidth

Presentation: Hosting your show

After years of hosting CBC's Ontario lunchtime magazine show, Ontario Today, Alan moved to the pop culture section of the CBC dial, bringing a fresh and energetic flair to the music show, Bandwidth -- the closest thing to being a podcast while not being a podcast on CBC.

Alan will talk about techniques for planning and hosting your podcast.

    Sorry. I'll be in Toronto this Thursday. Sounds like a good session and I'm sorry to miss it.

    I'll be flying to San Francisco for the VizThink Conference. I'll be doing an I.A. Podcast with presenters from Adaptive Path and a round table podcast for Boxes and Arrows. Enjoy the evening and we'll see everyone at the next meet-up! :-)

    Am I right in assuming the topic details are to be updated? I recall Pay It Forward was the topic at the last MeetUp. Thanks & Happy New Year!

    • “ fun and informative ”
    • “ Alan shared a lot of valuable insight into hosting, planning, story selection and development and the struggles of managing all aspects of a radio show (which sounded not unlike running your own podcast). ”
    • “ It was fascinating to listen to Allen talk about the importance of representing your audience and the constant struggle with that and interviewing for "yourself". Allen had some good insights into the basics of producing a show that were thoughtful and entertaining. The resulting discussion with other Podcasters was also rich and fun. ”
