Great quote for you to use with podcasting. 
“A man would do nothing if he waited until he could do it so well that no one could find fault.” John Henry Newman
Saw it on a slideshare created by Sue Waters (Australia) called Tips for Podcasting. Great slideshare with audio. Some great tips that reinforce things you say all the time. http://www.slideshare.net/dswaters/tips-for-podcasting

Hi Shawn,
Just listened to this video on YouTube posted by Andrew Middleton. I subscribe to his newsletter and have used some of his resources in the past. He’s very involved with podcasting at the university level in the UK. This link will take you to the blog post where the video is available. He provides some good suggestions for free places to host student podcasts. It is not a great quality video but the suggestions are good. Thought you might like to check it out.
“Hosting (student) podcasts
We use Blackboard to host podcasts produced by academic staff (using Learning Objects’ Podcast LX building block) but at the moment we have no easy way for students to distribute podcasts. This video offers a few options using Web 2.0 services:

There are a lot of other interesting posts on his blog. He’s working with a group of faculty members to create a collaborative book about podcasting. This is a link to the wiki where they are adding their ideas/content for the book. “Podcasting for Pedagogic Purposes”. The project is fairly new so people are still adding to it. http://podcastingforpp.pbwiki.com/
There are some really interesting podcasts on this page that include interviews and panel discussions about podcasting. http://www.pppsig.podomatic.com/
He has a couple of PPTs posted on the wiki (under June event) that explain this part of the project. The first ppt explains the process he used in the workshop which I think is a great idea! I’ve used his “100 ideas” before when I was working at ASUW. 100 ideas for Podcasting, facilitated by Andrew Middleton (this quickly became 200 ideas!)
100 Ideas for Educational Podcasting - the book!
The aim of this session was to generate 100 ideas for educational podcasts. These ideas will be published in a book by the end of the year targeted at the UK FE and HE community. It is expected that you will come with at least 2 great ideas of how podcasting is already being used and, once we have captured these, we will generate further ideas through creativity activities to reach our target of 100 transferable ideas! Later, a number of these scenarios will be developed further as implemented case studies. Together the scenarios and case studies will demonstrate the versatility and benefits of the medium to educators across the curriculum.
One of the people created a great document called “Podcasting: a step- by-step guide” that provides instructions for using Audacity and Podomatic. http://podcastingforpp.pbwiki.com/f/podcasting_guide_April-2008.pdf It’s really good.
