DFBT the Dwarf is, to the best of my knowledge, the only community podcast for DF. In it, we look at succession forts, review mods, examine devlogs, and wear socks. Lots of socks.

We have a twitter here and a Facebook here.

The pilot episode can be found aquí.
I will probably be co-hosting with DVNO in the future, so feel free to pester him too.

Please suggest any ideas we can add.

Disclaimer: The host is a teen boy. Voice subject to change without notice.

EDIT: Episode 2 is out, and can be found here.

What sort of things will you cover?
Also the only audio editing software I've ever use is Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/). I am not sure how much use it would be.

I was thinking FOtF, mods, succession games, etc. Maybe, if we can set that up, interviews with various people.

You should do a DF fan of the week/month thing in your podcast.

I suggest two different sequences; one to introduce new people to the game and help them gain a feel for the mechanics of DF, and another involving advanced tips on the most effective way to build a dwarven calculator using nothing more than bloody kitten skulls and the front right upper teeth of your most recently born bulletproof vests dwarven children.

Stuff like that, yeah. Also, it would be awesome if I could interview Meph direct from Germany (or Cairo, or Buenos Aires, or Tokyo, etc.), but that probably wouldn’t happen. Does anyone know how to set a voice modulator to sound like a dwarf, BTW?

[Halceon]

I'd listen to that.

Posting to watch the thread.

Might wanna ask Rainseeker that one, IIRC he did all the dwarf voices in Soundsense and the dorf shorts on the DFTalks.

Other than that... uh... lots of ale and mental retraining to have an obsession with socks might work.

[Kire93]

This would be awesome!

[tahujdt]

I think I have two or three guys from my school who'd want to help, but feel free to post any ideas. I hope we can make this a real thing.

[Putnam]

Audacity should be fine.

Ideas?

Hmm.

Regularity would be very, very good. Make every episode have something like...
 A mod spotlight. Newbie tips. Community/succession game news. Interesting happenings and discoveries. Mundane stories made awesome. Things likes that.

Posting to follow thread, this sounds interesting.

Dedicate an entire podcast to reading the description of Planepacked. http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/Planepacked

I've been practicing to do the sound editing for nother pod cast in where they talk about Twilight Zone, episode by episode.

I'd be very interested in doing the sound engineering. I've also done a fair reading in how to maximize sound quality in folks are doing it over skype, and what not.

That sounds great, thanks for the idea! Of course, we'll have to take commercial breaks.

Maybe you guys could also discuss updates to the Dev blog
