The Return of Podcasts
I hadn’t planned on taking a break from podcasting when we moved into our new home back in 2018. It just worked out that way.
I took for granted just how great my old room was for recording at the old house. The air conditioning was silent. The room’s upstairs location blocked the sounds of neighbors mowing and cars passing.… read entire post
Podcast News and Consolidation!
When I started my first podcast (You Don’t Know Flack) back in 2008, I envisioned it as a complete package. I stood up a separate webpage and WordPress installation for it (podcast.RobOHara.com). I also created a dedicated email address and Facebook page for the show as well. The late 2000s were all about branding.

Podcast Mania
While the blog’s been more quiet than usual lately, I’ve recorded several podcasts over the past couple of weeks — two of which came out yesterday, in fact.

I’m Recording a Podcast about Recording Podcasts and Need Your Input!
For my next episode of You Don’t Know Flack, I’ll be covering the topic of recording podcasts. I’ve written a loose outline for the show and I have lots of opinions to share on how I do things, but they’re just my opinions. If you currently record a podcast, I’d like to include your opinions as well. Here’s how you… read entire post

On the latest episode of Throwback Reviews, Ferg from the Atari 2600 Game by Game Podcast dropped by to chat with Sean and I about (what else) the Atari 2600!

Throwback Reviews Podcast: Forts, Wars & Bikes
We’re getting into a rhythm over at the Throwback Reviews. It’s not a hard set schedule, but lately Sean, Door and I have been alternating between movie reviews and what we’ve started calling “throwback episodes”. On the throwback episodes, the three of us sit around the mic and reminisce about some topic from our poast. On Episode 12 we sat… read entire post
Throwback Reviews Podcast: Goonies (1985)
On this week’s show, Sean, Door and I talk about the classic 1985 film The Goonies. We talk about our own adventures as kids a bit as well, and whether or not we think today’s generation of kids can even relate to a film like The Goonies.
We are still tweaking the show’s formula, so any feedback (positive or negative)… read entire post
