I can certainly help out with creating podcasts...

...however there's possibly something better on the horizon. You may, or may 
not, be aware that there's a group of people in Newark trying to set up a 
community radio station (anyone heard of Boundary Sound?). Essentially, you can 
consider this "access radio", where anyone who has something (clean and legal) 
to say can put together a programme, and have it broadcast. Now don't get any 
idea of "prime time" exposure or anything like that - something as minority as 
Linux is likely to get a 30 minute slot at 1am on a Thursday morning, or 
something like that (ok, I know the people involved, and it wouldn't be 
anything nearly that bad), but it'd be one way to get a podcast some slightly 
more serious exposure (after all, a "podcast" is just a pre-recorded radio 
programme right?). What's more, if we were broadcasting it on such a station, 
we could use the station's studio facilities to make a half decent job of it.

At the moment, Boundary Sound are awaiting news from Ofcom to see if their 
application has been successul, so there's nothing definate just yet, but don't 
you find it an exciting prospect to promote Linux to a wider audience?
