Show 100: Live!

Posted in Podcast on: Tuesday, October 30, 2007 by Paul Boag

So here it is. The long awaited 100th episode of Boagworld.com

The quality isn’t as great as it could have been, there is a lot of background noise and we are even more rambling than normal. However, this is our 100th episode and we are both proud and excited to have got this far.

Sorry, but there is no transcript of this show. There was just too many people talking and too much background noise to make that viable. I hope you will forgive us.

Thanks to all who turned up or emailed us. If your question doesn’t appear we apologise. We had 2 hours worth of material to reduce down to an hour. However, for a more complete record of the evening (including ) check out Ryan Taylor’s post on the evening.

More thoughts on the 100th show.

Thanks to all of you who the show. We really appreciate it!

    Well done for reaching 100!! I’ve been listening for most of them and, erm.. well you have improved lol! My ears are still recovering from listening to the 100th show, but it was entertaining and if it didn’t cost me a weeks wages to travel down and stay over, I might have even been there myself !!!
    Keep it up!

    Congratulations Paul and Markus, been listening for ages and love the show. Well done! Keep it up. You’ve inspired me to start a podcast (not web design related) and always fun to listen to.

    Do you guys remember Spitting Image? On that show they had David Steel and David Owen puppets. Owen was the suave deep-voiced man of the world whilst Steel was portayed as a squeaky-voiced midget with a grating regional accent. Anyway, just thought I would mention it…
