I know we said we wouldn’t talk about it on our sites any more, but I figured once more can’t hurt. We have our latest episode of The Amp Hour up on the new website, just waiting to be downloaded or streamed.

I will say though that you should pull the RSS feed ASAP in order to not miss any future radio shows. Who knows what kind of hijinks you’d miss out on?

Anyway, don’t tell the Aussie! I don’t want to upset my co-host. But do remember to shoot over to The Amp Hour for the 4th installment of the new radio show and leave some nice comments there.

We finished recording the 3rd installment of our newly-named radio show–”The Amp Hour”–last night. The show focused on a couple different topics, we were trying to stay a little bit more focused than we had been previously. Anyway, be sure to click the link above to get to the podcast/radio show, I don’t plan on putting the audio on this page anymore. I would also suggest that you try out the RSS feed on The Amp Hour, it’s the easiest way to get up to date info on the program; plus I’d like to discontinue posting that there is a new episode up on both that site and this one.

Speaking of this site, I realize there hasn’t been much writing lately as I’ve kind of sidetracked into the audio side of things. If I was being completely honest, I’d say it’s easier to just spout what I think about a subject than to sit down and write out a coherent article. But I really plan to get back into that in the near future. The theme is finished for the new site, we’re all set up to stream or feed podcast readers and our show content seems to kind of evolve over the course of the week. All this hopefully points to me having a little more time for writing about analog and random other things. Thanks for hanging in there, if you happen to be.

Dave and I have decided to move the radio show we started together to a separate site. We also chose a name for the site, The Amp Hour.

Going to a different site will allow Dave to continue providing video podcasts on the EEVblog site and I can continue providing analog type articles (and podcasts) on this site.  Our content will appear there from now on, but we’ll be sure to link over to that site for the next few shows to ensure people know where the audio files can be found.

While I’m sure I’ll miss all the traffic working with Dave has brought to this site, I’m really excited about continuing this project and getting more listeners to The Amp Hour.  Pop on over to The Amp Hour to catch the past two episodes of the show or grab the RSS feed so you know when we post our next one (usually at the beginning of the week).

Dave and I have recorded our second radio show. Still no name for the show, or else it would be posted at a different site than this one.  If this show happens to inspire an idea for you, please leave your idea in the comments.

Links discussed in the show:

We would love any feedback either in the comments or at the EEVblog forum (there is a specific section for the radio show).

So I’m very pleased to announce an inaugural episode of what we hope will be a regular “radio” show with Dave Jones of EEVblog. I got in touch with Dave about doing an interview for my series on the electronics food chain, as many others have in the past few weeks. Instead, we decided we could try taking it to the air and maybe try out a radio-type format.

To any EEVBlog members arriving on this page for the first time, welcome! I really dig the community that has risen up around Dave and his video blog and how supportive they are of one another on the forums there. For anyone who has not yet been to Dave’s site, I highly recommend watching and/or downloading some of the videos and joining the forums.

Finally, as mentioned in the show, we didn’t ever come up with a name for the show. If you have any ideas, please leave them in the comments. Also any other thoughts on the show, topics or format, we’d love to hear what you have to say!
