Behind The Scenes: GeoSnippits Reboot

www.geosnippits.com
It is difficult to put into words how I would like to express my feelings about getting the very first episode of my brand new videocast/podcast - GeoSnippits Reboot completed. We will start out with overjoyed, thrilled, relieved and the like. No matter how I put it I couldn't be happier being able to once again give insights to the geocaching community. Our first show was simply titled Episode 001: Geocaching Micros we discussed many aspects of those tiny geocaches geocachers love to hate. My new co-host Dave debeare Debaeremaeker and I are just itching to bring you even more great geocaching greatness for you to enjoy. Now if you are a regular  of my blog, you know I am co-host on The Geocaching Podcast, have my own Internet TV show- Geocaching World and created And hosted the GeoSnippits Geocaching Videos Series. Some people have asked me, why another Podcast? The answer is simple, geocachers want it, to be more precise they want more GeoSnippits. I have been so busy with the other shows I took a hietis for about 18 months from making new GeoSnippits videos. Overall they have been doing very well with about half a million views around the world but with the constant changes in the game and technology they are dated and needed, well, a reboot. So it is time to take the bull by the horns and get back on the road again and that makes me extremely happy.



GeoSnippits Reboot Podcast - the Reboot Podcast is going to be a little different than the other geocaching based shows because we are going with the concept of it being tutorial in nature. Gearing much more for the beginning and intermediate geocachers with helpful insights coming from the more experienced geocachers via social media and our live feed Chatroom. With this we can focus on more of the nuts and bolts of the game with great information, how to examples and breaking down all the technology we use. That's just the podcast, we also will be putting out on YouTube the live video version of the show in uncut format. I don't know about you but I do love seeing people as they do the show more than just listening in the car or mobile device. So we are giving that option to you as well. No matter which way you experience our weekly show it will be on your must see list for sure.



GeoSnippits Reboot Videos - judging by the responses we already are getting from our fans and viewers we realize the outcry for new and updated GeoSnippits Geocaching Videos. It is time to get out on the road and bring our tutorials back to you the way you like them. So we are going to take many of the existing GeoSnippits videos and remake them with up to date information. There will be new ones too so there will be no lack of content for sure. We will be start filming production in the next week or so and will keep them coming for as long as you want them.

So how do you catch all the GeoSnippits content? Fist thing is to visit our main web page at www.geosnippits.com and watch our most recent videocast on YouTube. Be sure to subscribe so you are alerted to all the latest and greatest release info. That area is also where everyone gathers for the live broadcasts. If you are a Google+ user be sure to circle  +Andrew Smith for me and +Dave Debaermaeker for debeare. That way you can be in on our almost daily questions and insights as we send them. There is a whole host of social network hook ups as well like twitter @geosnippits and Facebook. All this information and more will be on the Geosnippits.com website in the next couple of days.

Wow this is getting a bit long and I haven't scratched the iceberg yet. You are just going to have to check us out for all the details. Oh and I almost forgot, the GeoSnippits Reboot Podcast will be available on iTunes in the next week or so. Be sure to keep an eye out.


The GeoSnippits Reboot Podcastis recorded each Thursday at 8:30pm ET. You can watch the live feed and join our chat room by visiting www.geosnippits.com.

Behind The Scenes: Geocaching Podcast - October Cacher Coffee

XpunkX, Darrylw4 and HeadHardHat recording the Geocaching Podcast

 The Geocaching Podcast is such a fun show to do. Not only do I get the opportunity to talk about all the fun and exciting aspects of geocaching but I get to do it with such talented personalities like XpunkX and Darrylw4. Now take that and put it into an open discussion forum like our monthly Cacher Coffee and we can go on for hours if we wanted. Last night's show was no exception.

Matter of fact we were in such a talkative mood we almost did the entire show just on our initial show banter alone. Now what makes our Cacher Coffee episodes so much fun is that it is like I mentioned earlier an open format. We decide prior to the show what bullet points we want to discus and then discuss them. Normally in a show we have sometimes dozens of key points to talk about in a rather structured format but on Cacher Coffee nights we have about three broad points and we just go at it. The other nice thing is that during these episodes we open up the chat room and hang outs for our listeners to get their .02cents in as well. Sometimes we get a bunch of people who chime in, sometimes not. Either way we go through a lot of content. The hard part overall is getting us to shut up. Happened last night, we start the show. We get talking about what happened during the past week and we get over half way through the show and we aren't out of the banter stage yet. Way too much fun.


Believe it or not we did actually have some things to talk about and we discussed at great length subjects like
The lastest version of GSAK and the cool macro additions you can now add to your geocaching prowess, Cachesense has a really sweet update for Android and what is going on with the Geosphere / iOS6 bugs that are about to be fixed. It was a really enjoyable show to do and we hope you enjoy listening to it as we do making it for you. Be sure to check it out in the next day or so when it gets released to all the available podcaching sources. You can get all of the Geocaching Podcast episodes also right from our website at http://www.geocachingpodcast.com.

The Geocaching Podcast is recorded LIVE each and every Wednesday at 9:30pm ET. Be sure to come hear us and participate in our chat-room.

See you next week!

Behind The Scenes: Geocaching Podcast - Ep. 270 - Buying Your New GPSr

HHH is co-host of The Geocaching Podcast
Last night XpunkX, Darrylw4 and myself (Headhardhat) recorded episode #270 of the Geocaching Podcast.

It was good to be back in the saddle again after taking the past few weeks off for a family related hiatus. Even though XpunkX was still sick with a flu bug, Darrylw4 and myself were both pretty much whipped by show time but that is how it goes sometimes. The point is we are back and I personally am getting my sorry excuse of a geocacher back in the groove. This can only be a good thing :)

Last night's show we had owner of GPSTracklog.com aka Rich Owings as our guest. Rich has been running GPSTracklog.com since 2005 and has a vast knowledge of a geocachers bestest buddy the GPSr unit. During our discussion we talked about many of the available GPSr units and the different price ranges and functional capabilities. This is a perfect episode to listen to if you are planning on purchasing a new GPSr or want to spread the information to your significant other cuz the holidays are coming right around the corner. Nudge-nudge, wink-wink.

Overall a very informative show and you really need to give it a listen when it is released in the next couple of days.

The Geocaching Podcast is recorded LIVE every Wednesday at 9:30PM ET. You can be a part of the show by going to the Geocaching Podcast Website and clicking 'Live' to enter the Talkshoe client. You can also download all the published shows from the Geocaching Podcast Website and many of your favorite podcatcher sites and applications.


-See you out on the trails. -HHH

Behind The Scenes: Geocaching Podcast - EP. 246 - GeoWoodstock X

That's right boys and girls. The grand daddy of geocaching events Geowoodstock turns ten this year and they are taking it right back to it's roots by hosting at Sellersburg, Indiana. This makes it literally about 9 miles from the very first Geowoodstock event.

During tonight's episode of the Geocaching Podcast you could just feel the excitement from two of the event committee from GWX who were our guests on the show. Both Daggy and Ronny answered all of our questions that we thought would bring the most value to you our listeners. The whole crew was here tonight so XpunkX, Darrylw4 and myself (HeadHardHat) really enjoyed ourselves as the show progressed.

I don't want to give everything away but I think it is important for everybody to know that registration for Geowoodstock X ends on April 15th. So be sure to get your registration package, err, well, registered.

The Mega event is held this year on May 26th, 2012. Don't you dare miss it. I know that I will be there so be sure to stop by and say hi!

You can get more information about Geowoodstock X from their website at:
http://www.geowoodstock.com/gws10/index.html

We record the Geocaching Podcast each and every week on Wednesdays at 9:30pm EST.

The recorded episode for this week will be available any time now via iTunes and the Geocaching Podcast website.

 See you next week!

Behind The Scenes: Geocaching Podcast - Ep.#240 - Alternate Trackable Services

Had a full crew and another great show tonight when doing our latest rendition of the Geocaching Podcast. Our latest episode was all about Alternate Trackable Services. Sometimes we have subjects for the show that when you realize it is a topic of discussion and you think to yourself. "There is no way we are going to get a full show out of that." This was the case with tonight's show but one of the great things about XpunkX, Darrylw4 and myself is we can have an active discussion about pretty much anything. So if we need filler we can pull it out of thin air. Long story, short we had more than enough to discuss and some left over. Always a great thing.

This episode discussed a lot about Darrylw4's current obsession with figuring out sixty some puzzle caches and my move to my new residence. Another large chunk of discussion was about GeoKrety, Where's George, Serentripiti and other traveler web sites. To get all the details be sure to listen to the entire show when it comes out.

We record the Geocaching Podcast each and every week on Wednesdays at 9:30pm EST. The recorded episode for this week will be available any time now via iTunes and the Geocaching Podcast website.

See you next week!

Behind The Scenes: Geocaching World (RVNN.tv) Ep. #919 - Geocaching Faux Pas

It is so good to be back in front of the camera again as we recorded Geocaching World last night while being joined by our very robust and informative chat room. I do have to admit that we had to work out some cob webs and technical difficulties but the show was great as usual. Yeah we had some hurdles all right. For me personally after coming back from some health issues and dealing with a move to my new residence things have been pretty hairy. In fact my temporary spot for my studio (aka the front room) was finally put together about an hour before the show.

There be gremlins here. It doesn't matter if you are doing something relatively basic like a podcast or more elaborate like a video-cast you are always going to run into technical difficulties. Tonight was no exception when things like right in the middle of the show my wireless router simply failed. It never did this before and maybe it was because of the move but BOOP! no internet connection at all. Co-Host Courtney Wallin and Managing Director Andy McCaskey did an impromptu fill in while I banged electronics with large blunt objects but eventually I made it back to continue our discussion. Don't you just love it when things like that happen while in a LIVE recording?

Speaking of the show we ran with a subject I very much enjoyed talking about recently on the Geocaching Podcast in regards to Geocaching Faux Pas. Those nasty little no-nos that we may or may not do while out hunting for geocaches. We talked about everything from how you should not put foul language in a cache log to don't lie to the authorities if approached. All in all we discussed over two dozen topics. You will just have to watch the show when it comes out in distribution.

Our prize winners received some really great swag from our Geocaching World Cache Stash which included a CoinsandPins.com First To Find Traveler Tag and a CoinsandPins.com Earth Geocaching Pin. Way cool and congrats to Mike Neal and Louis Caplan for winning these great prizes.

Other points of interest is the introduction to a new segment being shown on RVNN LIVE called Geocaching Radar. It is a quick jam packed summary about any possible place in the USA. Included is some great travel information and a description of a choice geocache that you may be interested finding in your travels. Be sure to check that out on RVNN LIVE.

Did you know that on ROKU there is now an official RVNN Channel? That's right, you can now join the potential three million plus Roku viewers and watch all of the RVNN.tv shows right on your TV! That includes Geocaching World. Check out all the details here: http://rvnewsnet.com/

As always I want to thank all the fans and viewers that visited us in the chat room while we recorded the show. It is always so great having you there. Thanks for being there.
-HHH

Behind The Scenes: Geocaching Podcast: Ep. #239 February Cacher Coffee

Boy did it feel good to be back in the saddle again by doing the Geocaching Podcast last night. After being away for a few weeks I really missed not talking with Darrylw4 and XpunkX. Unfortunately XpunkX was not able to be part of our February Cacher Coffee but our friend TheBadCop was.

The show this week we spoke in depth about the demise of the GeoMate Jr. GPSr product line and our suspicions as to how this unique niche unit could be discontinued in such a manner.

We also discussed the introduction of CacheSence for the Android smartphone. This was formerly CacheBerry for the BlackBerry phone.

I don't want to spoil the show so that is all I will bring up for today's Behind The Scenes of the Geocaching Podcast. You will just have to download it and enjoy when it becomes available either today or tomorrow.

We record the Geocaching Podcast each and every week on Wednesdays at 9:30pm EST. The recorded episode for this week will be available any time now via iTunes and the Geocaching Podcast website.

See you next week!

Behind The Scenes: Geocaching Podcast Ep. 234 January Cacher Coffee

Wow, here we are in 2012 and we started this year with a really great show tonight on the Geocaching Podcast. This episode was our Cacher Coffee which is kind of a laid back chit chat between XpunkX, Darrylw4 and myself HeadHardHat with help of our listeners in the chat room and a Google plus hang out.

Tonight's episode dealt with several key discussions which became the show. First after our general banter we went right into what turned out to be an important issue for XpunkX in regard to geocaching log deletion. I was rather surprised with the circumstances for this situation and the following discussion that ensued.

Next among several topics was a discussion from Darrylw4 in regards to filling out your geocaching day calendar. More specifically with the semi-rare opportunity of finding a geocache on February 29th. Another great discussion which included our chat room came from that.

Another key discussion area touched Geocaching.com's removal of the word Munzee from all geocache description pages and what does this really mean with any type of advertisement like content.

We did finally do the Badelf drawing... You are just going to have to listen to our Geocaching Podcast episode when it comes out in a day or two. Be sure to stay tuned.

We record the Geocaching Podcast each and every week on Wednesdays at 9:30pm EST. The recorded episode for this week will be available any time now via iTunes and the Geocaching Podcast website.

See you next week!

Behind The Scenes: Geocaching Podcast - EP #232 - Christmas Gift Episode


Heavy sigh,
I really cannot talk enough about our hosting site TalkShoe which we use while recording our weekly Geocaching Podcast show. I remember way back when I was just an avid listener and all the buffering issues, lock ups and other asunder headaches it caused when used.  Then when actually being a member of the show itself there were constant issue with connectivity, sounding like a Cylon and just plain getting it so one can speak, be heard and then actually hear the show itself. In a word - nightmare. It seems like just about every week TalkShoe does an update and then something goes flaky (IT term). I don't change the hardware configuration on that box so this is all TalkShoe. Anyways, last night was no exception.

Just before the show I start logging in. I noticed that TalkShoe was doing another update so I grit my teeth and hoped for the best. In the words from Sheldon (The Big Bang Show) - BA-ZINGA! I heard two words from the show, there was a slight pop and then nothing. Couldn't hear anything from the hosts who also seemed to be working their issues out at the time. Nor could anyone hear me. So I exit TalkShoe - another update happens - same thing. I go out and in again - same. Finally I reboot my entire system, yet another update and low and behold with about 30 seconds before the show was to start I finally get in. Phew! I was getting really frustrated because I knew that Co-Hosts Darrylw4 and XpunkX would be divvying up my parts and I really wanted to be a part of the holiday gift list show. So just saying that this particular set of issues was a new one for TalkShoe the frustrations with them continue from week to week and so if you ever wonder why we may sound a bit frazzled at the beginning of the show that is most likely why.

Okay on with the show... so to speak. The banter was light tonight because we had so much to talk about. We know that many geocachers and significant others are anxious to hear our holiday gift list for those last minute holiday gift ideas they may need. We are always all too happy to pass on what we find. In tonight's show we went well over 20 different items from the tangible like new GPSr units to the intangible like being given Time to do some guilt free geocaching.

There was a lot of information discussed all laced with personal experience from each of us. Pretty great insights if I say so myself. At any rate you will just have to listen to the entire show which will be out at any second and make your own observations. There are also links to all the items we discussed in the show notes when published. Please feel free to check them out.

We record the Geocaching Podcast each and every week on Wednesdays at 9:30pm EST. The recorded episode for this week will be available any time now via iTunes and the Geocaching Podcast website.

See you next week!

Behind The Scenes: Geocaching Podcast Ep. 226 - Canine Consideration

I am sitting here listening to my recorded track of tonight's Geocaching Podcast which is kinda weird in a way. We just finished recording the show that I am able to hear completely while we actually talk and then to hear just my track which is used for the final cut misses everything but what I actually say. It does though give me enough information that I can write this post. But I digress...

Tonight it was just Darrylw4 and myself Andy HeadHardHat Smith. XpunkX was out doing family stuff and could not make it. We and more precisely Darrylw4 missed him lots because not only did he have to mind the board he had to say a lot of the meta-content that XpunkX normally does as well. You never know how difficult it can be until  you actually have to do it.. Great job Darryl.

This was a fun episode on several levels for me personally. Our guest for the show is North Carolina based geocacher NCBiscuit. This is a geocaching team where Linda (NC) pairs up with her partner Biscuit who happens to be a fun loving Golden Retriever. I have been friends with Linda and Biscuit for many years and it was a real pleasure having her on.

Over the course of the show we discussed many things our viewers have asked about geocaching with your pets. Things like the amount of training that may be needed for your pooch - and you. Safety and First Aid tips, helpful hints and a whole bunch more. You will have to listen to the whole show to get all the information but you will be so glad you did.

If you listen you will actually hear my dog during the recording. How fitting is that when discussing our pets while geocaching. So as I wrap this post up my dog Emily gently rests her head on my knee and looks up at me. Tail wagging and then that gentle but routine doggie fart, her tail wags a bit faster. Boy, what we do when dealing with our pets, but hey we wouldn't have it any other way.

Time to let the pooch out the back door. You can hear the entire episode in the next day or two. Be sure to give us a listen - phew Emmy - OUTSIDE!

We record the Geocaching Podcast each and every week on Wednesdays at 9:30pm EST. The recorded episode for this week will be available any time now via iTunes and the Geocaching Podcast website.

Until Next Week.

-HHH
