Podcast Ep 6 – 2011 Iditablog

Josh Rogers — Fri, 11 Mar 2011 07:55:25 +0000

First off, this was one of the most fun we’ve had recording a podcast – and with some great interview audio from the trail, we talk about some pretty interesting aspects of the race…. but, the recorder got messed up and our backup plan was slightly less than perfect. Sorry about that.

Besides current race standings we touch on the news that came out regarding Mitch Seavey’s withdraw, the followup to Zoya DeNure’s earlier scratch – and we talk more about the race leaders.

We also learned that if participating in the Iditarod, Greg would choose his layover position strictly by which checkpoint has the best food.

Josh Rogers — Tue, 01 Mar 2011 18:31:29 +0000

Josh, Greg, and Loren all came together to record the very first episode of the 2011 season. We took a peek at the news from the last year, while just having a good time talking about the Iditarod and some of what we’re looking forward to. The episode was a bit more unstructured than normal, contained a few small glitches, but was overall a lot of fun. We hope you’ll take a listen.

Josh Rogers — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 07:38:43 +0000

On a special edition of the Iditablog Podcast, we bring you the audio from the Musher’s Banquet in Nome. In the first of two portions, you’ll hear the special awards introduced and presented to each musher as it happened on March 21st. While unfortunately you will miss out on the prime rib dinner that those in Nome enjoyed while they listened to the awards presentations, you will get the benefit of an edited down version which cuts out long waits as presenters go up to the podium!

A BIG thanks to Iditablog.com’s friend Nate who recorded the whole thing for us. Look for the second portion to be posted in a seperate podcast in the next few days.
