(PRWEB) July 4, 2005 -- Podfeed.net, one of the top podcast websites in the world, continues to innovate with The Podcast Chronicles, a new behind-the-scenes peak at one of the sites most popular podcast shows, The Best Damn Tech Show, Period.

The Podcast Chronicles is similar to reality shows like Project Greenlight in that it shows the inner working of a production, but by being online, The Podcast Chronicles is able to become interactive. Fans of the show can interact with its stars, a first for this medium.

The Podcast Chronicles is not a reality show. It is a journal chronicling the creation of a new podcast by five broadcasting rookies. Every week a new thirty minute show is released to the podcast community and a brief article describing their experiences is posted on the website.

Fans can read about these experiences and discuss them in an open forum with the shows stars and other fans. This creates an unparalleled opportunity for the fans and stars to unite. The hosts of the show can even discuss what was talked about in the forum on their next show. This makes their podcast truly interactive.

This is a huge leap forward for the world of podcasts," says Drew Olanoff, creator of The Best Damn Tech Show, Period. People who have never heard of podcasts before are learning what they are and what it takes to make their own via these chronicles. It brings podcasts even more into the mainstream, and I expect to see a lot more things like this in the near future."    
   
The founders of Podfeed.net, echo Olanoffs enthusiasm, saying, "Podfeed.net is extremely excited to present such a unique offering to the podcasting community. The Podcast Chronicles gives an inside look into the creation of a brand new podcast, and the trials and tribulations that the hosts encounter along the way. We look forward to watching this show, and the podcast medium, grow."
   
The Best Damn Tech Show, Periods first three shows had over 10,000 listeners, and their behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to produce a podcast gets serious website traffic. Podfeed.net continues to invent innovative ways to give a voice to average people.
