Almost a Month since the last show - but hey, you know what they say, Quality is Better than quantity....Right?

Well Quality is definetly one word to descirbe the show this week.

With the announement of the new trek games, we decided to bring in Victor this week to do the show with us - and i have to say - it was a laugh - Contrary to what everyone thinks - and although Victor probably wont admit it - He's a very nice guy at heart!

After several hours, multiple bloopers, and some laughs on the top, this show was the result!

To top it off, we have a new segment this week from Faxxer of STO.net - and, although i personally had no clue what he was talking about, I found his on-air attitude and demeanor very refreshing - he is the type of guy who, even if you have no clue what on earth he is talking about - you can still follow him, and laugh with him!

Additionally, this show, Kinneas has worked hard, and has once again produced a wonderful video accompniment for this show - definetly worth checking out folks!

Hailing Frequency Open

Welcome everyone to the grand opening of the Hailing Frequency Podcast! Hailing Frequency is the first podcast dedicated to covering the many aspects of Star Trek gaming. From the latest news and information on the upcoming games such as the MMOG Star Trek Online, to the older games such as Armada, Bridge Commander, Starfleet Command and more. We'll talk about the Fleets, RPGS, arcade games, board games, flash games... any game that has the Star Trek name attached! You can find interviews with developers, publishers, modders, and people who develop fan based Star Trek games. Hosted by me, ChessMess, a stand up guy *cough* who has spent the last 32 years watching Star Trek and nearly as many playing the games that surround it. I'm fired up about this and am proud to announce the very first episode is now available!!

Feedback for the episode can be made in the comments section here or at the Hailing Frequency dedicated board at the Star Trek Gaming Universe forums.

Here are the show notes:

  • Intro montage courtesy of Perpetual Entertainment
  • Show Id
  • Audio montage for a answering machine but seemed to fit well in this context

  • Who is the host?
  • History of Star Trek Gaming Universe

You can find this podcast, regardless of where it gets hosted (and it will probably move) by using the URL of http://podcast.stgu.com/


SEND US YOUR FEEDBACK

Sending us feedback about the shows can be done one of several ways:

  1. Email - send me an email at ChessMess@gmail.com
  2. Email with Audio Attachment - Send me an email with an attached mp3 file and I'll play it on the show! If you have a question, I'll answer it, if you just want to promote your fleet, website, star trek game, mod or anything else then that works as well. Just ensure its MP3, any other format will go straight to the deleted folder.
  3. Phone Feedback - You can call our dedicated phone line at (206) 350-7848 and leave me an audio message up to five minutes in length that is sent to me as a mp3 file for inclusion in the show.
  4. Post in the Blogger Comments - If you have an account on blogger then you can leave a comment on the blog.
  5. Post in the Hailing Frequency Forum - We post news about each new episode at Star Trek Gaming Universe and each news posting allows people to post feedback, much as you do with postings here at Blogger.


That is quite a few methods so pick one and let us know what you think about the show! Also let us know if you are interested in being interviewed or have ideas that you'd think would be helpful for improving the show.


SEND US YOUR PROMO's

Want to get the word out about your efforts in the Star Trek gaming world? Send me a promo and I'll play it on the podcast!


ADVERTISING / SPONSERSHIP

I'm open to working with you to advertise your products on the podcast, just email and let me know. Game publishers this is a great opportunity!


DONATIONS

I'll put up a paypal link that you can donate some funds to for this effort. I need to upgrade my equipment to a good quality noise-canceling microphone and a better portable media recording device like an I-River , rather then the laptop that I'm currently using. I'm hoping that some advertising/sponsorship will help me out in this respect, but I'm more then happy to put out a virtual tip jar to also make it happen. Look for that addition to the blog sidebar soon.


Finally thanks to everyone who downloads and listens to the podcast. I'm not the most proficient of speakers, so please excuse the excessive use of "uhhs" or mis-pronunciations… I will get better over time, promise! I'm looking to publish a new podcast weekly, but may do it bi-weekly or even more often depending on how much time and energy I have. Subscribe to the RSS feeds to stay updated, or keep your eyes on this blog or http://www.stgu.com/ to see when a new episode becomes available.


All the best!
ChessMess
