I can understand myself perfectly, and dno't see anything fun about my accent. If you imagine lucky the leprechaun then you're about 17 miles from the target and a bloody idiot, my accents not that strong and no-one from Ireland actually talks like that.
Well some people do but they're from the far end of the country.
I was jesting when I volunteered my services, only 2 people at the BBQ could understand everything I said, and paleman is from Ireland so he doesnt really count.

Crap, man, I thought you were half-serious.

for what it's worth, i have multiple mics (with a pop filter!) and a love for the malazan series. follow the links in my sig for samples of my voice in the riffs we do (i'm the voice ON EVERY TRACK--oh, except Karate Kid, I guess). I also did a podcast years ago (most of which is still up at www.holynightmare.com ) but it was with older, crappier mics. I used to be a DJ and have been told I have a good voice, so I'd love to help out in any way/shape/form. I'll admit, I'm generally far too busy writing/editing on the Ice on Mars stuff so I doubt I'd be much help on that end, but recording vocals/leading discussions, etc., would seem like something I could easily & happily do.

I have no mic, and seriously, ask illy, you wouldn't understand a word

I'm sure you would be perfectly intelligible ... if your sections were recorded and played back at 1/4 speed.

Get this guy off his current vices and replace with Malazcrack or Dresdencrack and you would have a sure-fire hit on your hands. Glad he has a day job now, but as a part of a podcast he would rock.

Are you still interested in another host? If so, I'll send you a voice clip with some information about myself. I've got a decent mic that doesn't distort my voice too much and I've got a Canadian "accent" so I'm not too hard to understand.

[Silencer]

Yes, we're interested in hearing all submissions! I think the email address is in another thread, but malazanpodcast@yahoo.com is the place to send your submission, preferably recorded via Audacity, if possible. Thanks!

[Illuyankas]

Oh yeah, Silencer, my quick trial clip is there. Just email me back if you want me to work on anything. Like not calling for people who think Hood wants a wife to be beaten and having content instead.

[Silencer]

Yup, just listened to yours Illy - you'll get to see my initial reaction in the staff section, but it was great, you're in.

I'll set you and Zenmichael up with access to the staff room later today when I get a minute.

[Whiskeyjack629]

Voice clip sent. Thanks Silencer.

[Jake]

Whiskeyjack629, check your email, if you haven't.

Thanks!

[Whiskeyjack629]

Thanks, Jake.

Put me down as a potential host, please. I've hosted three podcasts so far, and I wouldn't mind being involved, at least occasionally. If you'd like a sample, please PM me and I'll send in the link to one that's currently on hiatus (and it just so happens to be all about Fantasy).
