Title: Radio Galactica playing the Podcasts!
Post by: Rico on February 03, 2009, 03:40:16 PM
An online streaming radio station called "Radio Galactica" contacted me about playing my podcasts.  They will be playing the new shows at 7pm EST on Tuesday night and reruns of old shows on Thursday nights at the same time.  Details below:

Thanks!  Don't forget they will have old shows on Thursday nights too.  What I noticed last night is the podcast started late.  I think it was like 7:10 or 7:15 when it finally started.  Internet radio doesn't have the tightest of schedules.

Either way, the more exposure the better!

Congratulations!

Thanks to you too Rico!! we really appreciate the opportunity to run the shows!

Feathers, I was actually a fan of the show, and contacted Rico to run the shows...

We apologize for the lateness of Last Tuesday's show all... we kind of...misplaced the file...LOL! Better late than never!!!!!  :biggrin Ooooooops!!!!!! Although I think it's not bad for a group of folks who literally set-up a streaming station in 19 days...

Thanks to all of those with the comments! We're hoping to add more shows in the future!

For those of you who haven't heard the recent news, We've moved to a streaming server with An auto-dj that gives us the capability to schedule not only Treks In Sci-Fi, but hopefully soon, the Anomaly Podcast as well on Radio Galactica!!!!

For those of you who are looking to link up with the stream, we've got new options for you all!!!!

You may use your favorite player, including iTunes to now link up with the new streaming server! just head on over to our website at http://radiogalactica.net (http://radiogalactica.net) for more information. on using the different links to the players. (iTunes, Rhythmbox, and VLC  users can link up with the winamp link to catch the new stream server with that software)
