RE: [asa] ASA suggestion (podcast?)

The nice thing about iTunes is that it is a way to get publicity with the general public. People like me have an ipod and look in the directory for science/religion discussions. And note that anyone can use iTunes on their computer without an iPod, as David says.

I'm glad to hear the last conference presentations are there- very nice. A step-up would be having a regular podcast, which equates to freshness and relevancy, esp. if discussing current events such as Francis Collins and the NIH position.

What would be fun is hearing a panel discussion with a YEC, OEC, TE, and atheist (devil's advocate, for a distinctive perspective).

Another interesting segment would be interviewing book authors. They are easy to find as they are also looking for promotion.

This discussion list could also tie-in to the podcast.

It seems a good idea as long as the free part of iTunes remains available as a repository.

But is there a reason the ASA website is not just as good a repository? What are the issues there? Any MP3 player s/b able to play the audio, is that not true? I dont own an ipod but listen to radio station feeds off iTunes, but surely thats also not the only directory of radio stations either.

Have you ever considered a monthly science/religion podcast? Check out apologia on itunes as an example of what you can do. I would find it interesting. I listen to a lot of science/religion podcasts. It would also promote ASA to the public.

An example would be having a monthly or biweekly panel phone discussion. Just tape it and put it on itunes. I think it is all free (free to post and free to listen.)
