Local podcasters, would-be podcasters, and podcast fans are invited to join the Hawaii Association of Podcasters at a friendly pot-luck gathering on Saturday, Aug. 26. It will be hosted by HAP co-founder Bob Lew in Kalani Valley (just past Kahala Mall heading east), from 12:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. at 1591 Kalaniuka Place. Join the mailing list to introduce yourself, let us know you’re coming, and what you’re bringing!
Eric Rice — podcaster, videoblogger, longtime voxmedia evangelist and co-founder of HipCast — is in Hawaii and visisted with HAP members last night. On hand were Todd Cochrane, Vernon Brown, Eric Timmer, and Ryan Ozawa. Talk swirled around citizen media, Second Life, and a million other things, capped with a visit to the Ala Moana Apple Store. Todd, who has earned a bit of a reputation of an Apple critic, was spotted walking out with a brand new MacBook Pro.
HAP member Vernon Brown of the 808Talk podcast has crossed into the next dimension of video with 808TalkTV.
“Since I am approaching my one year anniversary of podcasting I decided to add an extra cut for my listeners and do a little video podcasting,” Vernon writes. “I’m no pro, but many of my listeners have been asking if I was going to morph to the video side so I guess the pressure got to me and I put together a little something to give a glimpse of what I want to do.”
He says 808TalkTV will “show my favorite places in and around Hawaii and take a visit with some great and wonderful people and the things I love.”

NEW DATE: HAP member Gail Jennings of HawaiiDiner.com and the HawaiiDiner.com Podcast will join a panel of “new” and “traditional” media practitioners on Hawaii Public Radio’s weekly Town Square talk show, airing at 5 p.m. on KIPO 89.3FM on Thursday, April 13.
Writes fellow panelist and HAP co-founder Larry Geller: “Produced in a studio any podcaster would kill for, a bunch of us will see what happens when ‘traditional’ and ‘new’ media are thrown into a room and the door locked behind them.”
Larry and Gail will sit with Jerry Burris, editorial editor for the Honolulu Advertiser, Ian Lind, investigative reporter and blogger, and Town Square host Beth-Ann Kozlovich.
Tune in, and call in! The number is 941-3689 or (877) 941-3681 from outside Honolulu.
HAP member Roxanne Darling of Bare Feet Studio’s Bizzycast and Beach Walks with Rox will be featured on ThinkTech Hawaii on Hawaii Public Radio this afternoon. Tune in to KIPO FM 89.3 from 5-6 p.m. to hear her and host Jay Fidell discuss “Web 2.0 - Leveraging Your Message to the World.”
