Episode 1: All Shook Down by The Replacements

I’m trying something new: podcasting.  A podcast is basically an audio blog for our readers who don’t ever listen to them.  This one is about an album and a band that changed my life.  Also, you can definitely​ hear my cajun accent on this especially on the word “connection.”  Hopefully, I can find enough time to do these more often and then have them on iTunes.

I'm a husband to a woman who is nerdier than I am, and a father to a near perfect child. I am one of the main authors for this website, plus I handle most of the technical aspects (web design, editing podcasts, and videos, etc.) During the day, I'm a Computer Science and African American Studies Teacher. Most of my free time I'm listening to music or podcasts and watching soccer. I love Star Wars and Star Trek equally. I'm a horrible gamer yet I game. You can reach me at nolanerdcouple@gmail.com

  • Yes. I did listen. :) First time -- out nice job. I also really like that you are respecting \"regular\" copyright law by just using the music as an intro and outro. Good for you.

    • Thanks! I did a little research about what I could and couldn\'t do. It\'s why I didn\'t include any songs from the album on there. I will actually mention them in my next one as well.

      • You\'re welcome. Actually on a blog that doesn\'t make money, if you can do a link back to the source material, you play a lot more. The link just takes the listener to the music rather than having it on your blog. Getty Images does the same thing with pictures. Pictures are free to use on blog sites, but when the reader opens them, they are taken back to Getty.
