Well, my first podcast is in the can. As I note at the end of the podcast, this was a lot harder than I had expected. Finding content was easy, but transitions are still a mystery to me, and I am not yet fully comfortable speaking in front of a microphone, but that will come with practice. In any event, it's almost a half hour (no, I am not changing the name to Office Half Hour and I am not doing this twice a week to make up), and you can see the topics in the program notes below. If you have issues that you want me address in future shows, please feel free to comment here or send me an email.
