This week on the Affiliate Thing podcast, Shawn Collins and Lisa Picarille get into the latest in affiliate marketing and some random stuff.
This show touches on an opportunity for anybody to start their own podcast on GeekCast.fm, affiliate fatblogging, an affiliate use of Twitter, and jobs in affiliate marketing.

Also, there was some chatter on people that complain when they’re unfollowed on Twitter, a contest to go to a party at the Playboy Mansion, LinkShare Symposium West, the latest affiliate widgets from Amazon, and annoying guys that pretend to be gurus.

If you are looking for Affiliate Marketing related positions, I've included a link at 'Find A Marketing Job' site. Liked your idea about an affiliate marketing job search portal, can be easy to do.
I was having speaker issues so I had to put on headphones to listen to the last show because one speaker was out lol – so I couldn't even hear Lisa. Same thing happened with GeekDads@Home.
I feel ya on the un-follows- I culled my list by about 100 that I just skiped right over before.
Re: Jobs I think Affiliate Classroom hosts a job board, but I have no idea how active it is.
Agreed on Bill Tancer – that guy was awesome, but I was disappointed when I went to ilovedata.com and it's just the Hitwise blog and not just his stuff
Crap – I'll redo the audio, so it's a single track and Lisa is there in all of her glory.
Did you get any hate on the un-follows?
How about now if you stream it? Can you hear Lisa?
Hey Guys .. Shawn, in your editing software (audacity?) you should have the option to select both tracks as Mono and you won't get the dual speaker issue. You can still record in stereo to help with volume control per track etc., but just select Mono before exporting to MP3. TrishaLyn sorry about the issue with GeekDads … I didn't follow my own advice .. :-p
Thanks Joe –
I use Sony Sound Forge – I'll check out the options.
For this recording, I just went back and combined the two tracks and re-uploaded it.
