Podcasting.

What a strange term - podcasting.

It sounds like something from that crazy movie, "Invasion of the Body Snatchers". Remember that one? You know, the flick where the alien pods from outer space take over everyone's bodies and people are re-birthed from these pods. Too cool.

Anyhow, back to the term podcasting. What is a podcast you ask?

Well, a podcast is an audio blog that uses mp3's. Much like this is a web log that uses HTML to show off a message. Think of it as the last bastion of renegade broadcasting. Essentially you record yourself, music, etc. onto an mp3 file, post it on the 'net, give the necessary RSS/XML coding so the iPodders can download it and way you go.

I will be joining the ranks of the podcasters soon. Yes, look for The Buddy Culver Show to debut on the web very soon. Buddy Culver? Who is he? Well, its me of course. You know the old routine of "Pick your porn name" where you if you are a guy you take the name of your first male pet (female pet for the ladies) and combine it with the street name where you grew up. In my case -- Buddy Culver. A legend is born.

I have registered www.buddyculver.com which will be the online home for the Podcast. Look for a show every couple of weeks with my thoughts, many of which have appeared in written form here, along with music from independent artists and b.s. about sports, cigars, beer and politics. Its all good. I used to D.J. at the college radio station a long time ago and have d.j.-ed parties and crap for years. I guess its the "Radio Host" in me that has to come out.

If you or anyone you know are an indie music group or solo artist, send me some tunes! I'd love to play em. Send 'em to me: dogrockets@rocketmail.com

Rock on. And remember, Humpty Dumpty was pushed.
