Podcast Possibilities

Several months ago, I was approached by a couple of guys who wanted to feature me in a Podcast.  I had been a guest on another’s Podcast, but had very little idea of what it involved.  So I checked Wikipedia – “A podcast is a program made available in digital format for download over the Internet. . . A podcast series usually features one or more recurring hosts engaged in a discussion about a particular topic or current event.” OK, I would co-host the Podcast with Vidal Muniz, as a part of the Valley Baptist Missions Education Center and subjects would be based on my teaching sessions on Discipleship and Prayer with their Valley Baptist Theological Institute.  Vidal helped my anxiety at attempting a new thing by telling me it was like the old radio programs, except some people would be able to see us.  I remembered Isaiah 28:23, “Give ear and hear my voice, listen and hear my speech” and I was in.  All we needed was a name.  I thought of several good names, but was overruled on all of them:

“Pod for Dummies”

“Peas in a Pod”

“Pod-millennial”

“Podical Son”

“Podfessional”

“BegYour Poddern”

We settled on “Discipleship Directives” with a weekly production to be shared on YouTube in my newly created YouTube account – “Dr. Dan Crawford.”  It won’t replace my “Monday Morning Manna” but give us a listen, even a look, and see what you think – maybe even click on “Subscribe.”
