Photocolumn Podcast Episode 001 “Creeps and Tools”

Hello friends. I’ve let photocolumn lay fallow for awhile as I have concentrated on other things. Since I support this site out of my own pocketbook I had to make a decision to either shut it down or do something new and different. Since you are reading this you probably figured out what I decided to do. So in an effort to keep this alive I decided to start doing a podcast. So sit back and enjoy our first photocolumn podcast. I’d love some feedback so please post a comment below.

This episode’s guest is Sol Neelman, photographer of weird sports. Sol recently published a book all about the Weird Sports he’s photographed over the years. Go buy it now. We talk about his book, some of the stuff he’s been shooting lately, community and Melissa Lyttle’s A Photo A Day, shooting events with other photographers which Sol says that “it wasn’t a competition, it was a celebration.” And much more. And just for the record, Sol has a potty mouth so consider yourself warned. Jump to the bottom of this post to listen to the podcast.

Here’s a few links to things and people we talked about on in the podcast:

We could have been Cousins…Sol is part of the Kangas clan and I’m a Parmele. Both families settled on the Oregon Coast around the same time. In fact just down the creek from each other : http://www.historiccutler.org/Pages/History.html
