Do to a weather related flight cancellation I was unable to attend the Expo. They weren't able to get me there until late Friday, at which point I decided it wouldn't be worth going cross country for just 24 hours. We also discus our video podcast and the process it took to get it online. In our beer corner we review our visit with Fred Matt and Jim Coor from FX Matt Brewing, the makers of the delicious Saranac beer. We give a shout out to Porcuponics, who have put out 2 great videos since our last show. Also, Gigi, who I have been helping the past month is finally up and podcasting like a pro. Give her show some support and listen in. Goto www.erichour.com for show links.

The first ever (that I know of) video/ audio podcast. And what a learning experience it was. The video came out a bit choppy. The audio is edited and contains more content than the unedited video. For Example: music, sound effects, promos.... Sideshow Hermie does make an appearance, although brief. I am working on getting the video into a mac/ ipod compatible file. Hopefully in a day or two. But I didn't want to keep anyone waiting any longer so I'll publish the windows video and audio now. So I don't ramble too long, tune in to hear what we say, no summary this week.
