A progressively less-edited first episode. I got tired of editing at around the 25% mark. 36 minutes of me and @ehjayb (blog).

Really, this conversation should have started when I found out that there was an amazing “commentary” for the amazing Joss Whedon series Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog a long while ago. I quote the word “commentary” because it really could have been a CD release by itself. Since there was no real way to get at this awesome content, other than buying the DVD itself, I ended up pirating the thing about two days ago.

I am first to admit that this is a very grey area: I definitely pirated the content that I should have paid for. Of course, I have my justifications… I paid for the series when it came out on iTunes. I don’t want to buy a physical DVD (ever again, mind you… but maybe for you people who want it) and have to divide up the commentary into tracks so I could enjoy them on the go on my iPod. I would have loved to have the ability to pay a little bit more extra to get the commentary track. That’s pretty much all I wanted to say.

Instead, this whole thing spun into a podcast episode. I hope to actually have a separate feed so that the podcast can be more than just an mp3 attached to a blog entry. Or maybe podpress will work just fine…

Sidenote: I can’t believe I didn’t say a word about NPH in this podcast.

Sidenote #2: FBI, please don’t burn down my apartment. Thanks.
