Hello everybody, if you're here you've probably clicked the linky in my sig to get here. Don't go away just yet pl0x.
I'm planning a podcast of awesomeness. My plans are to make fun of the news, both serious and bizarre, and I'm open to suggestions. The breakdown of my ideas is pretty simple.
Two releases per week, News Day Tuesday and Casual Friday. NDT would be where we (my panel and I) make fun of everything that's happening in the world, rip on public figures, and just have a good time. Casual Friday would center more on the odd news stories (like changing the chemical structure of cow farts to combat global climate change).
Both releases would have some recurrent features, like Dick Move of the Week, Dumbass of the Week, Study This: (interesting science/health studies), and e-mails from our handful of listeners. I've got about fifteen of these ideas. Which ones are used each week would depend on the stories we have to deal with.
So I'm open to suggestions. Ideas for format, or features? I'm planning on recording this business through Skype; anyone interested in being on?
Theres a show over here in Australia that makes fun of the news and such. Its called "good news week". I think there's one in Britain called "Have i got news for you." I s'pose you could get some ideas from watching them.

HIGNFY has been on the go for about 15 years.
You should check out Mock the Week, which is also on the BBC.
Hey guys, thanks for the interest. It's coming really really slowly because my schedule is jammed and I'm still headsetless, but Casual Friday will go down eventually, hopefully sometime this fall. When it finally does take off, I'll let all of you know!
