As previously announced in the Life of Brian podcast coming soon post, I will officially being hypnocasting on Sept. 4.

You can keep updated either here in the podcasting stuff category or go straight to my podcast blog for listings of hypnocasts as they are released into the aether. Or, if you are using itumes, ipoddler, or another program that downloads podcast streams directly to your ipod, mp3 player, computer, or multimedia device, then you can copy this subscription link and paste it directly into the appropriate software for automatic downloads when new podcasts are available.

Current plans are for three to four podcasts a month. About half will be Waking Dream style guided imagery, experiential hypnosis, or trance sessions and the like. The other half will be lectures and demonstrations of trance techniques and discussions of other issues relevant to the community.

I may occassionally throw in a Life of Brian style discussion, ubertopic, or rant or the like. I will not be including my academic or university teaching materials in this podcast. For those, I will be creating a different stream entirely.

As the podcast is a useful way for me to update some of my older free material that has been in need of some rewriting, rerecording, and other face lifts, the free MP3 section at Brian David Phillips Waking Dreams (http://www.briandavidphillips.com) will slowly be replaced and eventually removed entirely as I changeover to a podcast deliver system – the archives of older podcasts will always be available so I’m not removing the concept of free materials from my sites, just changing the delivery system and archival locations as well as removing some material from distribution completely).

Folks will notice that I have added a new links category in the rightside bar here at Life of Brian . . . hypnocasts which is directly above hypnoblogs. If you know of other podcasts related to hypnosis, neurolinguistic programming, influence, focused trance, meditation, changework, and the like . . . then let me know the address of the webpages that support the feed and I’ll check ’em out and add it to the hypnocasts list (of course, I appreciate linkbacks as well). No, I do NOT mean commercial sites with payfor mp3 downloads or even free mp3 downloads, this list is for podcasts or sites that distribute information interactively or on a semi-regular basis.

In any case, the first official podcast goes up on Sept. 4 . . . so those who are interested, can subscribe now.
