For episode 22 I have my first returning guest in Myke Hurley. Since he was on a previous episode we spend our conversation talking about post production, changing formats of a show, doing a nighttime talk show, deciding when a show is done. Stick around for the AAOO where we fall into soundboard wars.

I’m joined by Jory Raphael, a designer and illustrator specializing in the clean and usable. He’s known in podcasting circles for creating the distinctive show art for the 5by5 podcast network but also does great icon and design work for other clients – and is working on an app with friends for parents.

It would be hard to overstate how much of an influence Merlin Mann has had on my online escapades. From the way I blog on my weblog, toot on my Twitter or tumble on my tumblr. You get the idea. This was 5 parts therapy, 8 parts fun and 10 parts nervous, giddy laughter (on my part). A total of 23 parts. Or a “full Merlin” as I like to call it. So fun.
