Last Wednesday, Clarence, Darren and Kathy and I were joined by Cheryl Oakes as we put a wrap on our series about telling the new story. In reality, it’s hard to wrap up so the stories will continue.
My apologies to Jeff Utecht and others who waited patiently for the Skypecast to begin. Not completely understanding how Skypecast works, I went ahead and began the conference call as I usually have done only to realize that you need to login on the Skypecast website. My bad.
Listen to the podcast. (26MB 1:04)

Also you’ll notice I’m linking to the file on Internet archive rather than the nifty little podpress player I used in earlier podcasts. This is because podpress files must be encoded with a sample rate in multiples of 11.025 kHz or else it sounds like Alvin and the Chipmunks. I tried for hours to get this done in Audacity but failed miserably. I did it with the previous podcasts but not sure what I did differently. If anyone can help, please let me know. I followed this tutorial but it didn’t seem to help.
