Excellent beginning for your podcast, Overman. Technically well-done, just the right length, interesting topics. The climax was the outstanding comic scene. You are really a very good writer, Overman. The idea of using a comic scene to make points about machinima tools and machinima personalities is wonderful (Plato and Oscar Wilde would be smiling at your use of their forms). The recording of the scene had too much reverb, but I could hear everything. I was laughing and smiling all the way through. I enjoyed your comments on the news and reviews. I was very glad to see your comments on IClone since I am researching their product right now. BTW, I did listen to your show with a pen in my hand, but it’s a good idea to do the links on your site.
Outstanding job, Overman. I’ll be a regular. Thanks for the great work.

Some good feedback coming in from the Machinima.com forums (thanks, everyone!):
“The end skit was hella funny. Was worth listenening the whole thing just for that.” - Dr. Nemesis
“Excellent work on the first overcast! The editing and production work are top-notch. I also thought it was good you provided a summary of links for the listeners. You kept things short, sweet and simple. The overcast has a fresh persective to Machinima and I look forward to your next release.” - Digital-Phil
“Nice podcast Overman… Like Phil said, short, sweet, and to the point. Good work!” - ceedj
