THE HARD CAST (Blog/Podcast) *Feedback Appreciated*

[LeRolls]

Some friends and I have been working on a blog/podcast for a few months now. We officially launched the site the beginning of August and also put the podcast portion up on iTunes. We're a bunch of newbs when it comes to this whole thing and would definitely appreciate any and all feedback. My brother put a lot of time and effort into designing/organizing the website and would also like to know what you guys think.

We're mostly trying to focus on reviews of movies, asian cinema, anime, and video games while throwing in our own personal brand of humor and attitude whenever we can. Our goal is to update the site multiple times during the week so there's always something new. I think we've learned a lot in a short amount of time but we still have a long way to go.

If you're willing to let us know what you think than please leave comments on the specific blogs, email us at gethard@thehardcast.com or just reply to this thread.

Hard Cast Prime Episode 0 is a good intro podcast to start with since it basically introduces everyone and gives a taste of what we're trying to do.

Thanks A lot!

Sounds interesting. I'll give it a listen to, post-PAX.

The Movie, Asian Cinema, Anime, and Video Game Podcast with attitude!
Just a bit of advice, might want to go easy with the "...with attitude" 'round these parts ;)
Best of luck, though, will try to take a listen as soon as I can.

[diablopath]

Yeah, we don't need no anymore none of that god damned attitude.
It ain't ever done ain't nothing good none for nobody!

[BLeeP]

I swear I saw a banner ad for this in someone's sig on Cheapass the other day. I've never listened to a Podcast, but I wish you and yours the best of luck!

[LeRolls]

Thanks guys, I really do appreciate the replies. As far as the attitude thing goes it's mostly just to give the podcast/blog some personality and humor not to piss anyone off or anything.

You probably saw me on the CheapAssGamer forums since I do post there as well.

Oh, no, nothing to do with you! The "... with attitude" suffix was plastered all over the previous gaming community a majority of us migrated from about a year ago. I just couldn't resist pointing it out ;)

[civil]

I'll try to listen as well and if I might make a suggestion make your sig smaller. We see it no matter what and as it is it's rather...well, large and in your face. But maybe that's where "the attitude" part comes in...

Gotcha! Didn't realize it was considered big as it looks OK at my resolution but I went ahead and made it smaller.

[civil]

Whoa, I didn't realize I had such power.

While you're at it, call your mother more! She misses you!

[LeRolls]

Not as much as your mother misses me!

Sorry had to go there :D

[diablopath]
