Off This Week

truetechlife@gmail.com (Nancy and Michael Nally) — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 22:18:00 +0000

Sorry folks. No new show this week. Ended up hanging out with Gary Vaynerchuk down at Disney's Food and Wine Festival at Epcot. Gary was terrific. Learn more about his work and show (if you aren't familiar) over at Wine Library TV.

Always awesome to meet some of our online friends.

New show next week. Promise.

New Show Coming Sunday!

truetechlife@gmail.com (Nancy and Michael Nally) — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 02:15:00 +0000

Thank you to everyone for their understanding as we worked through some complicated family health issues that kept us away from the studio for much longer than we ever planned.

Everything is back on track, everyone is well again, and we are ready to put out an all new show this Sunday!

We appreciate your patience and we will work hard to deserve your continued listenership.

Taking The Week Off

truetechlife@gmail.com (Nancy and Michael Nally) — Sun, 20 Jul 2008 16:15:00 +0000

Hello everyone!

Unfortunately Nancy and I are going to have to take this week off from podcasting as there is an illness in the family keeping us out of the studio. Nancy's mom is in the hospital recovering from a knee replacement and has run into some complications, but things are moving in the right direction and the doctors are assuring us that her case is under control.

Because Nancy was away for our last show and is obviously worrying about more important things this week we have decided to just hold off on our next show until she can join us next week.

We invite you to take this chance to go back and listen to some of our past shows that you may have missed. They aren't that old after all. We really would love to get your feedback, even on the older shows, so that we can continue to improve our efforts and bring you the best show we can.

Thanks for your understanding and your thoughts. We'll see you all back here next week!

-Mike

Getting Ready For Launch

truetechlife@gmail.com (Nancy and Michael Nally) — Sun, 04 May 2008 14:07:00 +0000

Hello everyone!

Nancy and I are hard at work getting the finishing touches together on our first podcast and we couldn't be more excited! We really think we are putting together a nice little show that is going to bring a great deal of value to you every week in a tight, fun little package. A little news, a few reviews, and a bunch of good advice for those of us out there who sometimes struggle to keep our families growing collection of technology living happily together under the same roof.

Even though Nancy and I both bring a broad collection of geeky experience to the table the most important part of this show is going to be you! We need your feedback to help make the show better and better. And most importantly we need your questions and opinions to make sure we are bringing everyone the best information. Nancy and I are both passionate about this podcast being a two way discussion. Let's hear you!

Keep an eye on this web space. Subscribe to the RSS feed and when the first podcast (due in the next week or so) goes live you will be among the first to hear Episode #001 of what we feel is going to be a really fun and informative show.

-Mike
