ABOUT PODCAST 17
Podcast 17 was a weekly Half-Life related podcast that covered everything about, err Half-Life!
I started Podcast17 with William, who I had heard on another podcast talking about a mod he found on my site, which at the time was called PlanetPhillip.com.
I suggested starting a new podcast together solely about Half-Life and he thought it was a great idea. We initially considered calling it the Planetphillip Podcast but eventually decided on Podcast17 because of the allusion to City 17.
In retrospect, it probably wasn't the best name as it was very generic.
After about 4 months, the schedule became too much for me and William took sole charge of the show and invited various regular and occasional guests along.
The site is still up but the show stopped 19 November 2012, so that's just over 4 years, which I think is freaking awesome.
I will be uploading the shows that I appeared on to this channel, but you can still listen to and even download as audio only everything individual episode from the site:
