Any chance you can spill what topics you guys will be covering or any other guests on the show?

Hey team, let's talk improvements for the podcast!Cut the background sound immediately when you start talking, I found it difficult hearing the introduction with the background music.
What would make it better?
I can't speak for the content since I'm well versed in the topic, but i'm sure someone has a better opinion on it.
What I will ask is "What is the goal/outcome this podcast aiming for?"

Goal: to help as many VCE/HSC/uni students as possible, in any which way.

Nah, reckon having a recap of the key messages/points would be a good thing, but apart from that, was incredibly solid.

Who was this guest from the latest podcast!? He has such a beautiful podcast voice 😍
If you want to hear Alter's dulcet tones or my lispy whinge (and a little bit of airconditioning hum), you can now listen to our second podcast! In this podcast, we're chatting about what university's actually like, and how it differs from high school - appropriate for everybody to listen to. :D
We haven't promoted this at all yet - it's a forum exclusive! ;)

Listen here!
In this episode, we chat about how you should approach tests/assessments, and also the best ways to deal with the subsequent feedback. Small things can have a big impact on your eventual results. ;)
If you'd like to get involved with the podcast like ol' pal Alter, let me know!
Post by: zofromuxo on March 13, 2018, 09:24:50 pm
In particular interviews with for example the Tutesmart Tutors and even some of the more prolific AN users.
Something like this,but longer and more in depth. I feel this would be enjoyable to the listeners, since they can listen to it while studying and glean some takeaways on how to perform well in academic life - but also life in general. As for the interviewee, well just knowing your helping some user on this site and increasing your reach to help other users in a different medium.
I would also like a transcript, timestamp and/or notes of resources mentioned on the podcast if possible (e.g. Episode mentions the app Timeweave, a link in the notes to where listeners can access it).

Unsure if you still taking suggestions Joseph, but something I would really like would be a longer-form of content.

Yeah, 100%! Thanks zofromuxo - definitely noted. :)
Alter and I recorded another couple of podcasts the other week, but I'm going to sit on them for a little bit. The annoying aircon background noise issue is frustrating me, and I don't think they're that conducive to relaxing listening as a result haha. Instead, if all goes well I'm planning to record another podcast together with one of our TuteSmart tutors and forum members, howey. I'm at a different office now, so I'm hoping the acoustics will be much nicer! :)
Post by: Joseph41 on March 15, 2018, 10:46:34 am
And, thankfully, with no aircon interference. ;) We recorded this one at Mulgrave - hopefully it's made a difference!
The special guest is ATAR Notes tutor, howey. In this episode, we talk about the importance of using your holidays effectively, and how you can actually do that. Let us know what you think!
Post by: Joseph41 on April 10, 2018, 09:18:06 am
We'll also be opening the floor for questions for future podcasts. We figure the best way to help y'all, is to actually answer the questions you have. :)
Post by: MissSmiley on April 10, 2018, 10:20:12 am
Haha! Didn't even notice the air con!! ;D ;D coz I was listening so attentively to your heavenly voices ;D ;D
And yeah just thought to request a Law podcast? From someone doing law at Uni? Also, how does it work when you're doing a double degree with law as one of them? How do they manage this work load? How much of VCE Legal Studies is paralleled at Uni?
Sorry for so many questions! ::)
Just really exciting if we had a law podcast :)
Post by: Joseph41 on April 10, 2018, 10:21:46 am
Just wanted to say a massive thank you to the team for starting this - every single one of them is extremely useful and it just gives me a chance to reflect upon my study habits and implement some new snazzy things that you as high-achievers and uni students talk about! ;D

Want to test out podcasting via Skype. Would anybody from the forums be interested in featuring? All it requires is Skype, and a headset with a speaker in it. :) Even if you don't want it published, would be cool to do it as a test.

Also, it would probably be good to level the audio - I was listening through headphones and Nick was fully on the left side and Adam was fully on the right. Would love to hear from more students!

Thanks poet. Am aware of that audio thing - will work on seeing how to fix it (think it's just because of the software I used to record Skype (which also explains the glitches haha)).
EDIT: And thanks - I'm just starting puberty.

Thanks poet. Am aware of that audio thing - will work on seeing how to fix it (think it's just because of the software I used to record Skype (which also explains the glitches haha)).
It's probably just the channels that causing this problem. So when recording, try to keep channels 1 and 2 both turned on to ensure the audio actually records on both left and right sides. Though, you can always fix it in post if needed ;) (on Adobe Audition or something) my film school-ness is obviously showing I need to stop aha
Besides from that, that was a good podcast! Go Adam!!

Some questions for you!
1: How do your feelings of year 12 differ from the beginning of the year until now?
2: What do you think you'll spend your time doing now?
3: All time fave song? and why?
