What gave you the idea to start a Neopets podcast?

Podcasting was a relatively new phenomenon in August 2006 when all the current major podcasting groups were just starting. I say “relatively new” because although the podcasting software was available years before, it was during August 2006 that it began its first big swoop into mainstream awareness partly due to the iPod and iTunes revolution. As any budding entrepreneur would do, I wanted to get in early and have an activity for the PPT community to participate in. The idea of The PPT Show was perfect!

What is your favorite podcast episode? Why?

I don’t have a particularly favorite episode as each one I find has its own quirks and charms. I really do like listening to the blooper reels though. They make me laugh; and listening back to earlier episodes are always a nice thing to do as like reading a book for a second time, each time you re-read it, you pick up something new that you didn’t before.
