The Tada! team is joined by Shannon Flickinger, and discusses the pros and cons to the new iPods, emoticons, Slumdog Millionaire, and stuffy noses.

David and Nikki are joined by Ben Rescott to share their last picks of the summer!

The Tada! team celebrates the launch of the new tadapodcast.com, as well as a brand new podcast format.

Hello, good listeners!

It’s with great pride that I introduce a shiny new version of Tada! Now let me tell you about some of the new things.

First, you’ll notice the completely overhauled site. This provides you with new features that will make your browsing experience better by allowing you to quickly filter through to the posts you want, or browse efficiently through the posts with more condensed summaries.

We’ll also be introducing a couple new features. One of which that I can tell you about are more posts. Since we can’t exactly fit everything into one of the condensed episodes, we’ll sometimes take stories and share them with you through the blog. As always, we’ll be sure to sneak in our opinions and ideas, and elicit your own feedback. ;)

Second — and as I alluded to before — is a new format for Tada! Granted, the long episodes were great because we could fit a lot of content in, but our listeners have told us that they would prefer something easier to digest. So from episode 20 onward, we’ll be focusing mainly on picks and anything else that we find interesting.

And, best of all, we’re creating a new podcast! Keep an eye out later this week for Tada Tech, the show all about recent news and developments in the tech sector that are of interest to young adults.

Thanks for listening, listeners. And with that, I’m out. Ta ta!

It’s exciting to add two new things to the podcast: a voicemail number and a new picks section, both of which I will explain in more detail below.

First of all, you can now leave us a voicemail at (315) 944-0449. This is a new way to share thoughts, ideas, and comments about the topics we discuss on the show or about the show itself. If you leave us a message, we may play it as part of the show!

Secondly, we’re launching an new ‘Picks’ section of our website that can be found at http://tadapodcast.com/picks. We’ll use it to share gadgets, books, music, and other things that we find in between shows and want to share with you. They will be linked to Amazon.com, and if you buy anything through the Amazon links, Tada! gets a portion of the sale. We’ll use the money to keep the podcast running strong, and we thank you for your support (monetary and otherwise).

As always, you can reach us at our email address, or now at our voicemail number, (315) 944-0449.

Thanks to all past, present, and future listeners––you are the reason we podcast. We hope you keep listening!

Ta ta!

David

David and Chris are again joined by Bethany Owens to discuss a variety of topics including Michael Jackson, food, $6000 conferences, free ways to text, and two song picks!

Nikki is in Greece, so we’re joined by Bethany Owens to bring you a mix of stuff this week.

The Tada! Team is joined by graduating Liverpool senior Alex Pisciarino to discuss school choice, which would allow students to take a more college-like approach to high school, enabling them to choose the one they would like to attend.

The end of the school year is fast approaching, and for most high school kids that means dreaded final exams. For New York state students, it means Regents exams! We discuss studying and test-taking tips, and give some ideas on how to handle stress. The Tada! team has had an exciting day. First we drew our new album art with chalk, then we played UNO (Nikki won the championship and Chris came in at a close second). And now we’re bringing our latest insight to you!

It’s harder for teens to find jobs this summer… The Tada! team talks about why this is and how to overcome it.
