First Post

Hi,

My name is Jeremy and I'm attempting to record the Old Testament from the Douay-Rheims Bible (actually the Douay-Rheims-Challoner to be specific) in a podcast(mp3) format.
I am using this bible translation because it is Catholic and quite good and also in the Public Domain--which means I get to keep doing the podcast. The podcast puts out one chapter at a time starting with The Book of Genesis and the feed can be found at http://feeds.feedburner.com/OTPodcast

Right now I'm working with just a desktop mic, but I plan on getting a better mic and a mixer at some point.

If you listen to any of the podcasts and have any comments you can post them here or email me at jeremydjackson AT gmail dot com

Also comments to my email regarding incorrect pronunciations would be appreciated as well. I have a couple texts to help with the pronunciations now (as of Ch 15 Genesis) , but even these still don't get me every name. I plan on rerecording Ch' s 10 and 14 at some point to correct the pronunciations.

I hope you enjoy the recordings.
Remember it's always a good idea to pray to the Holy Spirit for understanding and guidance before contemplating Holy Scripture.

Jeremy
