I'm glad you have enjoyed it so far!  I have a face for radio as well... :-)

We definitely are looking at Floppy Days, ANTIC, The Intellivisionaries
and any number of other podcasts for what works and what doesn't.
The Intro->News->Feature->Closing flow is a major influence.

BASIC on a III, but that is about it...
