We've been hankerin for another listener participation show ever since the last one (although we've worked out some sound problems from last time so the quality will be better).
We're scheduling another Wicked Decent Listener show via Skype on Monday, December 29th at 8:00PM Eastern Standard Time. If you'd like to join us, all you have to do is...
1. Add "Wicked Decent Learning" as a contact on Skype (don't have Skype, it's free and easy to install on Mac or PC).
2. Log on to Skype between 7:30 PM EST and 8:00 PM on December 29th. Make sure you have a working microphone and that you know how to mute yourself (this will cut down on the noise interference). We'll come up with a topic and if you want to chime in, we'll come up with a batting order to make it simple and orderly (imagine that, order at WDL).
The only disclaimer here is that if you are joining us we have the right to use your voice on the show (kind of a no brainer, but important to say anyhow).
If you know you'll be joining us, send an email to wickeddecentlearning@gmail.com to let us know how many people to expect. Also, if you have a topic of interest to share, let us know there as well.
Hope to see you then, it's a great time to trade fruitcake recipes!

How to Join Our LIVE podcast
Jeff Here:
This Friday, April 11th, 2008 at 8:00 PM EST Dan and I are going to try our first LIVE podcast episode and we'd like you to join us.
Here's the skinny. We are looking for people to share "Wicked Decent" ideas and happenings in your school or classroom. What are you excited about that you think other listeners should know about. Pat yourself on the back, you know you deserve it! Pay tribute to that colleague who is so creative and energetic you just wanna sing their praises from the rooftops (please use proper safety equipment).
So now you know what, here's the "how".
Option 1: Skype
The recommended way for you to interact with us is through Skype. This is a free program that you download onto a Mac or PC and lets you communicate with other Skype users through video, audio, or chat. If you'd like to audio chat with us, you'll need a mic and if you'd like to video chat you'll need a webcam (BTW we don't plan on showing our ugly mugs on camera, but we welcome you to). Click on the Skype link here to download. Once the program is installed, you can add us as a contact (WickedDecentLearning). If you are using a microphone or webcam you can use the Skype Test Call feature to check to see if it works properly. Then simply log on around 8:00 PM EST on Friday, April 11th for the show. We will call you so that everyone is in the same conference call. That's it. No charge, no worries. This lets you listen to the show live AND be a part of the show in real time. Just keep in mind, we will be recording for rebroadcast so what you say will be sent into the reaches of the universe.
Option 2: Online Text Chat
If you can't install anything on your machine or would prefer to simply participate by text chat, we will create a chat room on ChatMaker.net. I've made the room already but no one will probably be there until the show starts. Here's the link to the room. When you get in you can click on the default user name (Guest###) and change it to your preferred name.
Option 3: You Just Can't Make it Live
So you copped out on us? Friday night TV too important for you to sign up for Tivo just this one time to help us out? Well, no hard feelings. You can always send us an email or comment before Friday's show. wickeddecentlearning@gmail.com or comment on this blog post.
Looking forward to seeing you there. If you'd like to send us an email or Skype us before hand, that would give us an idea of how many people are joining us.
