Low Tech Radio Gazette

LTRG Placeholder

Here at the Lowtech Radio Gazette we delight in providing the most infrequent, least organized, and scatter brained stream of conscious podcasts around. What we lack utterly in quality and production planning, we make up for in stride with truly quirky technicals, interesting behind the scenes Lambdacreate content, and easy to digest mini episodes! The next time you think "Gee I don't know what to listen to" tune into LTRG and come be confused with us too!

So what is the Lowtech Radio Gazette?

LTRG is a mini podcast that I'm recording, producing, and publishing directly on my Motorola Droid4. In my mind it's another technical demonstration of what you can do with old hardware and a little bit of creativity. I don't expect it to be a great audio quality in any sense, but I'll strive to refine the quality of the production as the podcast unfolds. This will be pure learning on the fly!

In exchange for quality I get a podcasting platform that fits in my pocket, and ergo can travel with me anywhere. And to succeed I need to be truly creative and evocative with my content.

It's been a long time since my last episode. I swear it wasn't intentional. There was major hardware failure getting in the way of all the podcasting fun. And while it could have maybe worked I wasn't going to drag around an old 2000's network and big old mic and try to record with those somewhere away from my desk. Nor am I really able to record at my desk these days, you'll understand once you listen.

In this episode I reflect on what has happened since the end of 2023, Digital Minimalism, Palm PDAs, and what I think I've concluded all of it means together.

No episode is complete without an image. This episode of LTRG is sponsored by our friend the Palm Tungsten T.

During the production of this episode, this Palm Tungsten T received a battery replacement, shattered its screen completely and received a transplant, and harrowed many many games of 9 Men's Morris played between my son and I. Without it's unending support this episode would not exist.
