Thanks, David. Enjoyed the podcast very much.

I think Shel Holtz can point you to the resources to accomplish that feat. Just searched his blog and didn’t find it, but I seem to remember him blogging about that very thing early on in FIR’s creation.

I’ll be happy to chat with both of you some day. Looking forward to it. Thanks.

Yeah, Robert….what they said.

And if I can figure out how to record Skype while also using an external mixer, we’ll be able to interview the leaders in our industry and include them on the podcast too. You’re right at the top of my list, so get your radio voice warmed up!

Happy to write about it, Terry.

I want my students to listen. I believe you guys have a lot to offer them. This is what I love about blogs and podcasts. For instance, it isn’t every day they get to listen to the thoughts and ideas from a President (full partner with his name on the firm’s door) and a VP talking about PR. Seriously, this is that I think all PR educators should have their students listening to and reading.

Call it supplemental education or work it into the curriculum. The value is there and I, for one, am thankful that you and others are willing to share you thoughts in such an open forum. Thanks!

Many thanks for the great exposure you’ve given Inside Pr. Now that we’ve taken the plunge, the challenge is to attract listeners who will help keep our feet to fire so we stick to our weekly commitment. Your post is sure to help and we’re grateful. We’re excited about this new endeavour and in particular, about how social media can and will change public relations. Onwards!

You are welcome, Joseph. My pleasure. I’ve enjoyed finding all of your firm’s blogs along the way. They are quite good.

It is an exciting time in communication’s growth and especially for students preparing to enter the profession.

I can’t agree more about the “graduate seminar” statement. I’ve learned more about PR, globally, by reading blogs and interacting with practitioners than I ever dreamed possible.

I look forward to reading more from all of your blogs in the future.

Robert,
Thank you for covering the launch of Inside PR. And even more, thank you for picking up on the fact that we have several people blogging and podcasting. We’re all pretty excited about social media’s potential to enable us to transcend geography and time zones to meet, exchange views and learn from other PR practitioners. In fact, as I sit here reading my blog subscriptions, I feel like I am in an extended graduate seminar. There are so many smart, articulate people thinking about communications and adding to our understanding of best practices.

This is an environment in which senior practitioners, novices and students can meet on level, open ground to exchange views and advance the practice of public relations. It is a great time to be in the business of communications. I think it is an even better time to be embarking on a career in PR. There are no boundaries on what we can do.
