Calling All Potential Tech Podcasters!

Now that LOST is going to be on hiatus for quite a while, I'm thinking about starting a technology-based podcast. Stuff that I'd like to include:
  • Tech discussion amongst 2 or 3 regular co-hosts (I'd be the main host)
  • General discussion of the computer/tech industry including interesting news and trends
  • Mac and Windows tips and tricks, including stuff that's useful for admins and home users
  • Mac and Windows software/hardware picks
  • Recorded before a live Internet audience
  • Produced 1-3 times monthly
  • Clean content that's appropriate for all ages
  • Similar in format to MacBreak Weekly (but with fewer ratholes)
Here's what I need before I can get started:
  • MOST IMPORTANT: 1 or 2 regular co-hosts, either male or female, whose qualifications should include at least some of the following:
    • is a tech geek, minimum age 16
    • can live anywhere in the world, but must be available to record podcasts either Monday-Friday in the evenings (Pacific time zone) or on Saturdays, and must speak English well
    • has a high-speed Internet connection
    • has a computer microphone
    • preferably reads tech news sites or listens to other tech podcasts to keep up with basic tech news and industry trends, etc.
    • preferably works or has had experience in the computer industry, and/or has studied Computer Science or a similar field
    • preferably has a good sense of humor
    • if you're interested, please e-mail me at theJoshMeister+TechPodcast at gmail dot com
  • A name for the podcast which meets these standards:
    • sounds cool
    • is easy to spell and easy to remember
    • isn't already used by someone else
    • is OS/platform-neutral
    • if you have any suggestions, please e-mail me at theJoshMeister+TechPodcast at gmail dot com
  • Preferably, a cool logo for the podcast artwork
    • if you'd be willing to design it, please e-mail me at theJoshMeister+TechPodcast at gmail dot com
  • Preferably, some cool, podsafe intro/outro music
    • if you have any suggestions, please e-mail me at theJoshMeister+TechPodcast at gmail dot com
I look forward to hearing your suggestions!
