Razorpod 9-16-09: Georgia Preview

In this week's show, the Razorpod crew previews the Georgia game.  Arkansas is a 2 point favorite, and the crew's picks reflect this as they split down the middle on the game.  The crew gets a bit testy with Patrick Williams about the order of the picks, and JimmyG welcomes Tracy from Tulsa back to the fold.  Johnny Fayetteville invokes the "explicit" tag at about the 1:00:00 mark, so beware.

Nods to JimmyG for the Houston sleeper pick last week, and for Johnny for the Rajun Cajuns over K-State. JimmyG also has a well-reasoned rant about Urban Meyer worth the listen. And: Guess where JimmyG ends up for his sleeper pick? Yep, you guessed it: The Palouse!

Razorpod for 9-16-09: Georgia Preview

ITunes Links Fixed!

The ITunes link for Razorpod should be up and running again.  If you subscribe to the show through ITunes, you should now see the last 3 shows in your feed, and all future shows should come to you automatically.  If you don't see the last three shows in your ITunes podcast feed, just delete Razorpod and then resubscribe through the ITunes Music Store.

Of course, all shows will continue to be available directly from this blog and via drop.io/razorpod. 

We are recording the Georgia preview show tonight, so you should see it show up either late tonight or early tomorrow.  Drop us a line at Razorpod@sbcglobal.net if you have anything you want us to talk about.  Otherwise, it will be all Georgia and *cough* much discussion about someone's national picks from last week.*

*Hint: Someone=Patrick Williams 5-1 WOOOOOOOO!

Razorpod 9-9-2009: Willy Robinson's 'Stache Wants Its Still Photos, and Make It Snappy.

In today's show, we discuss the fantastic offensive performance against Missouri State. Mallett is the real deal; the defense and Willy Robinson's new Yosemite Sam 'stache have some work to do; and special teams are semi-special.

In other news, Logan is off to a fast start in the Pickem, Williams and Fayetteville are mediocre, and Jimmy G stumbles badly out of the starting gate. This week promises some movement with Williams out on a limb with UCLA and Michigan. The crew splits 2-2 on USC-OSU in the first really huge game of the year. Oh, and by the way, the sleeper games are laughable.

Technical Update Part 2

We're getting the Itunes thing fixed piece by piece. You can still use the solution listed 2 posts below to get our shows into your Itunes. However, this solution is even better:

1. Open Itunes.
2. Go to the menu: Advanced/Subscribe to Podcast
3. In the window that appears, type:

http://feeds.feedburner.com/razorpodpodcast

4. Click OK
5. Listen and enjoy.

The last thing we have to do is get the Itunes Music Store Link updated, and once that is done, we should be back to normal. Ill keep posting the embedded player for each show here, just to provide you multiple ways to access our fine program. Drop me a line with anything else of a technie nature that you can suggest.

Razorpod, Tuesday 9-1-2009

Razorpod goes in depth about Missouri State.  Well, not really, but more discussion on the game than strictly necessary.  Practice news and notes, and the lead pipe lock national picks.  The first sleeper games of the year get a big guffaw.  We end with the national sleeper teams, and shockingly, Michigan State is nowhere to be found.  Except derailing Penn State's inevitable championship run, that is. 

Johnny Fayetteville roundly booed for past performance in the pickem contest,  and Logan hits a full stop on the mailbag.  Enjoy.

Technical Update

Hello fans. As we discussed on last week's show, our podcast host for the last 4 years, switchpod.com, went out of business during the offseason (or merged with a pay service, which for our purposes is the same). We are in the process of finding a new podcast host, but we have some pretty stringent requirements: it must take uploads of files up to 100MB, and it must be free.

So far, I haven't been able to find a site meeting those qualification. We are currently using drop.io/razorpod, and it works, but I am having trouble configuring the feed for itunes. Obviously, the best way is still a direct download or streaming directly from razorpod.blogspot.com

For now, here is a workaround for everyone who wants Razorpod delivered to their itunes so that they can put it on an iphone or ipod (I'm looking at you, Friday Night Guy!)

1. Go to drop.io/razorpod

2. Click on the "Share" button at the top.

3. Click on the "Dropcast" link in the menu

4. This will pull up a screen asking you to subscribe using itunes, click ok.

5. That's it! It should now show up on the podcast menu in your itunes and will be auto-updated every time we post a new show.

Drop us a line in the comments if you know of any free podcast hosting services that allow large file uploads.

Razorpod , Tuesday, 8_24_09

As you know, we are moving to a new hosting service here on Razorpod, and like all things technical, with change comes issues. We're trying something new-here is the embedded show from Tuesday. Itunes is still pointing to the old host, and we are working diligently to get that fixed. In the meantime, try this version to see if you like it.

New Razorpod Episode Posted!

Yes, its that time again. Believe it our not, Razorpod is back for a 5th season, better late than never. This season you get the same old crew: Patrick Williams, Tom Logan, Johnny Fayetteville, and Jimmy G are back and better than ever. Or not, depending our your point of view.

We discuss the preseason high expectations, concerns about the defense, and a whole new way of doing things up on the hill. Also, we have surprising agreement among the cast members about the way the East and the West are going to shake out this year.
