I was a presenter at the awards, yet was denied yet another chance at a trophy.  In related news, Susan Lucci and I are doing dinner next week.

“Josh.” His voice was hoarse, like he’d been shouting.

“How are you doing, Dad?” I tried to stop my voice shaking. I didn’t want to seem like a kid.

“Been better, been worse.” He worked his lips, as though his mouth was dry. “See, the old devil’s put his hand into my chest, lad. Left a bit of a gift for me.”

He coughed. His thin chest shuddered. He turned and spat into a metal bowl by his bed. The spit was thick and threaded with blood. He gave me a painful grin.

GEEK FU 100, BABY

Recorded live at Balticon, this episode features Earl and myself as hobos. With such funny people as JC Hutchins, Earl Newton, Jared Axelrod, and others, I decided to play my hobo subtle.

The Department of Public Words Podcast, Episode 1 Monday, June 25, 2007Featuring Chapter Two of From The Earth To The Moon, by Jules Verne, as read by Podcasting’s Rich Sigfrit.

This podcast was recorded live at Balticon 41.

Our theme was written and recorded by Russell Collins.

This was a lot of fun to do, although difficult. I had one run through, and I tripped over words a lot. There is a reason we don’t speak like this anymore. Hahahaha. Thanks to Jared for letting me play on his show.

The GeekLabel guys wanted to do something special for the first year anniversary. And since I was the guy that showed them it wasn’t that hard (when I interviewed them), they asked me to tape it. This was my first stab at something like this, and I am really proud of it, and the geeps out there seemed to like it. There were many technical issues, between cameras breaking, slow hardware, and different tape formats, but it didn’t turn out half bad.

They’re geeks. They make geek shirts. They sell geek shirts. They rock.

I’ve been a fan of these guys for a year, since I met them at last years RavenCon. Since then, I’ve been a faithful geek, listening to every episode while sporting their stylish, smooth tees. Oh, and speaking of Tee’s, Tee Morris is on this ep too. But I’m funnier. Listen to the ep, then subscribe. It’s your civic, geek duty.

Adam Curry. The man podcasters love to hate. Some don’t take him seriously, some take him too seriously. I had the chance to sit down with him after shooting a scene for Port City PD. We talk about Podshow, contracts, controversy, the future of podcasts, and his hair. Spoiler warning: It was a little less spectacular then normal. And a few other things.

Enjoy.

Hey guys, its Rich I just wanted to let you know about a bad ass con that is coming up at the end of this month. It’s called Ubercon. You’ve heard me talk it up. I had a lot of fun last year, and they’re running on closer to home, in Michigan. so if you can make it out there, go. It’s totally worth it, especially if your a gamer. It is, after all, the ultimate, gaming experience.

Convention appearance, panel, and don’t forget to listen to the latest ep, already in the feed.

Sapphire City Tonight, the premier gossip program on the radio, features an expose’ on our city’s main benefactors, Alexander Venture and Chris Knight. The lovely Eleanor Adams brings us that latest information on these two millionaire playboys.

Eleanor Adams is played by Sarah Paige.

Hey guys. While we’re waiting for Earl to fix the technical problems we faced while recording rotO 34, I hit up a few friends to help me with my very first viewing of Snakes on a Mofo’in Plane.

Samantha Allen (randomassembly.com) and Lee Cherolis (betteryouthanme.net) are two badass ‘toonists that I met at Ubercon. Not only are their comics funny, but they are smartly drawn. To be honest, I’m more than a little jealous of their talent. See also biscuitpress.com
This episode is of course inspired and graciously syndicated to Hey, Want to Watch a Movie (watchamovie.libsyn.com). Visit Christiana as she brings in major Weblebrities in Podcasting as they goof on movies. Thanks for letting me play in your sandbox, Christiana.

ok. that sounded far dirtier than intended.

So get your drink, pop in the flick, and enjoy.

Another major influence in my filmmaking life is Earl Newton. His film, Fall of a Saga, was, and still is, one of the best amateur films I’ve seen. I always anticipate all of his projects, even his smaller ones, that serve to infuse confidence in not only his abilities, but also to inspire me. You can view his projects at his website.

The details of my life are quite inconsequential… very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. Ok, so maybe that’s not completely true. At least the part about him being my father is true. He owned a hardware store in Sacramento, CA, where I was born. I spent most of my young life there, before the business went under thanks to all of the discount hardware shops (Home Depot and Lowes). So if you shop there thank you for ruining the family business. Actually, I meant that. I didn’t want to get into the hardware racket anyway, but if I had a hammer, I’d hammer danger all over this land. My Mother was a refugee from the land of Hasselhoff, Germany. She ran from her homeland to take advantage of this country’s lack of Fanta (great, its over here now and big time as the official Gap drink Watch the commercials before a theatrical release to understand that one), and the freedom to watch reruns of Knight Rider. My folks split up and I had a fairly dysfunctional upbringing so I was perfectly geared towards eventually having a comedy themed show later. I’ve lived in North Carolina quite a few times, and this latest time the longest. I’ve lived on the West Coast, the East Coast, perhaps one day the Mid-East Coast, but we all have dreams. But enough about Little Richard, now more about Big Richard.
Having been told that I have a face for audio for years, I finally realized the medium I needed to conquer. After creating my own Internet Radio Show, and then bringing on Earl Newton (Southern Ronin.com) after the previous cohosts (Ron and Janine Garner) moved away, I began to appear in various audio dramas, soon taking the lead in a few. I then began a new series, taking advantage of the writing styles of friend Davey Beauchamp (Amazing Pulp Adventures), as well as Thurman Blizzard (Campfire Tales).

Various audio skits and dramas have been heard on ChronoRadio, Star Wars and Beyond, SwitchedOn Show and Dragon Pages’ Wingin’ It syndicated show, of which I am very proud. As if this, three gorgeous kids and a job as a technical illustrator wasn’t enough, I also create websites for all said projects, write for and announce at an independent wrestling federation, plus have the script for a comicbook, shortfilms, and an eventual webcomic sitting on my desk waiting to be made.
In my spare time, I sleeps. I can be reached by my shiny email address: rotooutcast@gmail.com

Too often we podcasters don’t get the feedback we desire. So I asked a couple friends to help me out with a PSA.

For those of you that remember, I recorded a story written by the incomperable Jared Axelrod, for The Voice of Free Planet X. Turns out, they did a few tweaks to it, and also released it on Voices of Tomorrow, the sister podcast to the site 365 Tomorrows, where it was first published. I can’t tell you all how proud I am of my reading of this story. I hope Jared writes more adventures of Captain Shakespeare

Some old friends drop by for a quick visit.

and apparently I drop an F-bomb in this unedited, uncut episode of RotO

By Jeffrey R. DeRego.
Read by Rich Sigfrit (of Requiem of the Outcast and Amazing Pulp Adventures).

“Which one are you?”

The kid fans out a small stack of super hero trading cards, but it’s not a Union deck. Figures. “Lemme see what you got there.” I flip through and remember my old baseball card collection. I knew there was something special about me, when at nine-years-old, I accurately calculated the probable batting stats of each player, on every team, in the 1996 season after opening only one pack. The Union recruited me five years later after my dad beat a couple of Atlantic City casinos for ten million bucks. I was caught on security camera tape telling him when and how to bet at the roulette wheel.

“These don’t look like you.”

The card displays a blue-costumed man leaping between buildings. I hand it back to him. “Those guys aren’t real, but I am.” Wow. Did I just say that? Maybe I’ll tell the kid that Santa and the Easter Bunny aren’t real either. He’s staring at me now, I can almost see his little brain struggling to make sense of my answer. I should tell him to buy Union Cards but, you know, he’s five.

Rated R. Contains profanity, some violence involving children, and retail corporate exploitation.

Podcast seems to be the newest coolest thing to do if you are in the audio realm. Thanks to the Internet, there is plenty to listen to, and podcasting is the easiest way to get it. 

What is Podcasting?
It’s an easy way to get content to you. You just copy the url:

• http://feeds.feedburner.com/RotoNews

plug it into a podcast aggregator, and you’ll get the mp3’s as soon as we put them up there. But don’t be fooled by the name. Podcasting can be done without an mp3 player such as IPod, or Roxio, etc. You can burn them onto a CD, or just listen to them on your computer

How you ask?
Well, it’s basically a news reader, that downloads audio files. It’ll put them in the folder of your choosing, whether you are there or not. You can set most podcasting software to download them at anytime, even when you’re asleep. Here are a list of podcast Aggregators:
