District 42 Enters the Podcast World with the Toastcast!

Originally published 41-3 Feb 2007

Division D Governor Greg Gazin has pioneered the Toastcast, featuring news and stories from members of District 42.

Members of District 42 and Toastmasters will be able to visit the Toastcast site and listen to the interviews led by Gazin.

District Governor Mona Cooley kicked off the Toastcast with her District 42 message, "Lead with Purpose, Communicate with Confidence". Edmonton Toastmasters Leadership Institute (TLI) coordinator Alice Elliott shared her message about promoting the TLI program in Edmonton.

The appeal of podcasts is the ability to download them onto your computer and transfer them onto your MP3 or Apple iPod player. While the Toastcast is not yet a true Podcast, members can still listen online, and download the audio files. Better yet, members may record their own Toastmasters-related broadcast or interview, and upload them to the Toastcast website.

Greg Gazin's life outside of Toastmasters is living the identity of Gadget Guy. As Gadget Guy, Greg reviews the latest electronic and computer technology on the CANOE website and Sun newspaper chain.

In the meantime though, Greg invites you to check out the Toastcast. Check out the District 42 online Toastcast: http://toastcaster.podbean.com/
