Someone might have noticed, though I have no idea who it could have been, that it’s been a while since my last episode of JD’s Musical Alchemy. Specifically, it’s been almost two months. I’m sure the world is wondering, “Has JDMA podfaded?”

The short answer is, “No.” While it is true it has been too long since my last episode, I have no intention of stopping now. Episode 30 is queued up and ready to record but I have been so busy with other things that I simply haven’t had time to finish it yet.

My latest recording setup works very well and in fact I’d like to add a couple more podcasts to my projects at some point in the near future. For one, I’d like to do a podcast for Bidi’s World. A classic audio blog. This is in addition to the recently added odiogo feature.

I have also been approached by a few artists about playing their music. It’s really great stuff too and I can’t wait to play it for you. As if that wasn’t enough, I plan to do a Christmas show again this year. Due to my holiday plans I’m going to have to get that one done in advance if I’m going to get it done at all.

In the mean time, if you enjoy the show I’d appreciate it if you could leave a comment here or over at JD’s Musical Alchemy and let me know what it is you like or dislike about the show. If you have any thoughts on the topic, I’m also thinking about joining the podcast to a podcasting network such as Blubrry and would love to hear your thoughts on that as well.

Merry Christmas everyone… I just released a special Christmas show over on JD’s Musical Alchemy… It also came to my attention that my pre-christmas show which originally came out December 22 had the wrong file attached and I’ve rereleased it with the correct file… It was a real bummer being that my thought was to have it available for Christmas Eve…

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas day wherever you are…

It was quite the ordeal but we actually got Christmas shopping done and sent off early this year. This isn’t normally the case. Usually we spend more time trying to figure out what we are going to get everyone than actually doing the getting. The result is that we find ourselves holding off on the shipping until we get everything together.

Not only did we finish our shopping, I am quite pleased with some of the gifts. Every year I try very hard to get people things that are just a step up from simply grabbing something off a shelf. It is one thing to buy someone perfume but another to really put your heart and mind into choosing a perfume that really suits their personality. Or alternatively buying a book or game for someone can mean allot more if you take their mannerisms or style into account instead of simply buying based on their known interests.

Regardless, I am so happy were done. Now I’ve got to get geared up for the Christmas show over on JD’s Musical Alchemy.
