Please nominate The Chillcast with Anji Bee in the Podsafe Music category for the People’s Choice Podcast Awards 2007. Sure, my buddy C.C. Chapman may very well win again this year, but I’d love to just be in the running! Nominations close July 15th, so act fast or forever hold your peace.
PodfinderUK Episode 15 is a music special which features a sweet review of The Chillcast as the opening sequence – woo hoo! As the only lady podcaster – as well as the only American podcaster – included, I feel quite honored. BTW, the music clip is by Rebecca Haviland.
I’m always complaining that I have more music than I can play on The Chillcast, right? So I’ve been thinking of expanding the show to a twice-weekly format. Perhaps later I’ll expand it to more than that… Just thought I’d ask your opinion on whether or not you think I should go twice-weekly with The Chillcast. I appreciate your input!
Adam Curry played our version of “Motherless Child” on his Daily Source Code today, which I just made available for podcasting on his Podsafe Music Network. He also commented that I had emailed him a “nude” photo of myself and a friend… Thought I’d go ahead and share that pic with the world, just to set the record straight. Sexy? Maybe. Nude? Hardly…

Finishing up production on Rebecca & Chris' artist spotlight for next Tuesday’s Unwind, and it is sounding pretty cool. They sent me more tracks from their brand new album, Three Thousand Miles, and it’s really good stuff! I had no idea she was working on such electronica based stuff. This feature would have worked just as well on The Chillcast! She’s come a long way from the more traditional jazz and AOR sound of her first album. I like both sides of her music, though, and totally relate to wanting to try new things. My work with Lovespirals is the same way. Anyway, watch for this special feature on May 1st at unwind.podshow.com!
This just in! The duo will also hold a CD giveaway contest as part of the feature – woo hoo!
Amidst the flurry of talk about Sirius and XM satellite merging, it has been announced that PodShow is no longer with Sirius. I only just joined Adam Curry’s PodShow lineup this January, so it isn’t as near and dear to my heart as it is to the core group, but it is still a bit disappointing. Honestly, I have no idea if anyone was really tuning in to the radio broadcast or not… As Julien Smith warned me, listeners never seem to email or comment on blogs, but as Marcus Couch pointed out to me, bands and labels seem to be impressed by the dual delivery system of the shows. And when you tell family or friends you’re “on Sirius” they seem to be impressed as well. So I guess I’ve basically lost some bragging points and some extra work. You may not have realized it, but even my show was edited a bit each week to fit the Sirius format and window. So now I can go back to a full 30 minute show if I like! There’s got be a silver lining to every cloud, right?

Please don’t fret if you can’t access any of my podcasts today. PodShow is upgrading their servers so we will be experiencing a bit of downtime while they get their thing together. I understand they will be providing some behind-the-scenes type entertainment on the site in the meantime, so you can always “tune-in” — so to speak — to take a peek while you are waiting! Check back soon to get the latest episodes of The Chillcast, Unwind, and Chillin’ with Anji Bee. Oh, and I’ll be taping a ShowGirls today, too…
