TGoG Podcast 001 – Introducing The Greening of Gavin

March 26, 2010 @ 23:27 By Gavin Webber 8 Comments

The Greening of Gavin PodcastNow, some people have told me that I love the sound of my own voice and can talk the leg off a chair.  So to prove otherwise, I kept the first episode to a short five minutes, and it is an introduction to my sustainable living journey.  Editing proved to be a bit time consuming, and I didn’t realise how many ums and errs I actually said until I had to remove most of them with the editing software.

Well, I hope you all enjoy the first episode of The Greening of Gavin Podcast!

    Great idea Gav for the podcast, I have subscibed, When I sold my V8 SS commodore and I picked up my Prius last week I first felt a whole lot less important as a person (might be a man thing)but every drive since has been a great feeling of power in a different kind of way, frugel excitment maybe or just peace within that I’m helping for a future for all, anyway keep up the good work and may the green force be with you. Brother Jim.

    @ Joyful.

    Thanks very much. I am glad you enjoyed the first podcast and the blog.

    @ Jim.

    Well done on getting the Prius! You will notice the difference in fuel consumption straight away. It won’t make you any less of a man, and you are doing your bit to stop massive amounts of Co2 being belched from your cars exhaust pipe. Glad you subscribed to the podcast.

    @ Sis. Thanks darling. I will dual post the podcast on my blog and on iTunes for all to hear.

    @ Gary. Thanks mate. Thought everyone might get a laugh out of that story.

    @ Kate. Thanks for the referral. He has made a good start!

    Gav

    Dad,

    Just listened to it. Three things:

    One: You lied to me and didn’t use my god damn jingle! If you were MY son and you where in MY will, you’d have your ass kicked out.

    Two: Nice pacing, i like your voice. mainly because it sounds a lot like mine.

    Three: At the start you mentioned that you were going to be interviewing you family members. As your eldest son, i call shotgun on first interview. Not only will i bring some much needed humor to your show, I’ll give a realistic retelling of how you descended into this ‘Hippy madness’ complete with that time i came home and found you leading a drum circle.

    Keep it up!

    -Adam
