Manga^3 Is Now Live!

I'm sure a lot of you must think I'm horribly lazy. After all, I keep saying that I'm going to post a review every day, and then I never do it. But, I am, in fact, not lazy. Because I've been using this time to get something new started. Something special. And now it's finally live.

I present you, Manga^3 a podcast for manga news, manga recommendations, and, most importantly, commentary for the most recent chapters published in Weekly Shonen Jump Alpha, as well as a few more here and there. I, along with my co-hosts Moe and Ten, discuss various topics relating to manga every week. We've been working on it for the past ten weeks, so we have ten episodes ready to go. I'm going to try to get a new episode up every day starting today, until I catch up and then we'll go to a weekly schedule. Ideally each new episode will go up Wednesday or Thursday. It depends on when we get the episode recorded.

You can find the podcast on iTunes, just search for manga^3. Or you can follow this link:

Manga^3!!!

At the moment I'm using a free hosting service, they provide 500 MB of free storage, so eventually I'll have to upgrade to a paying service. But whether I do that depends entirely on how popular this gets. Until I can justify paying the hosting fees what I'll be doing is cycling old episodes out to be replaced with new ones. It all depends on YOU, the listeners, if we make the commitment to this podcast. For now it's something fun to do with friends, but if enough people like it we'll be glad to start taking it a little more seriously.

Hope to see you there!

Can you make it available somewhere other than iTunes?

Well, here's a link to where it is hosted: http://mangacubed.podomatic.com/entry/2012-08-12T01_11_53-07_00
I could probably also put it up on a direct download service. Do you have anywhere else that people get podcasts from? I'm currently only aware of itunes.
