HFFL to soon have its own Podcast!

Posted on by

I was going to keep this secret until after my LAN party as I’ve been revealing so much about the expansions to HFFL. However, since I had the opportunity to be on the Post Game Carnage Report’s podcast. I made mention of it then.

The podcast is slated to be a mix format of new (the previous week in Halo) as well as any hot topic that may come up, and any future Halo related events, be they HFFL or community related.

After about an hour session with my soon to be two co-hosts (this after several weeks of talkign it over with one of the co-hosts then being prompted further by the other co-host), we came up with the format, responsibilities and the name. We had about a dozen names. One of the co-hosts, Zach, gave another name when all of the sudden it hit me. Spirit of Fire.

This is a perfect name for the podcast as it means a few things. The ship Spirit of Fire was lost in Halo Wars and drifts about. I feel that parts of the Halo community are like this at present and need to get back to being Halo centric. As well, the name denotes the FIRE (passion) that I have for the Halo franchise and the community at large.

So given all that, I based the logo for the podcast off of the Spirit of Fire’s ship emblem from Halo Wars. I think it turned out pretty darn good.

As for when the first podcast will be out, we’re working out technical difficulties with audio. We hope to record this Sunday, but it might be a solo act for now (me) until we can fix the audio issue. Further, once we feel comfortable with the format, we’re going to LIVE stream this over Twitch.tv. For now, I do have a twitter account for the Spirit of Fire (SoF) podcast. We can be found at: https://twitter.com/SoFPodcast or simply @SoFPodcast.

I’ll also be tweeting about this on my HFFL twitter feed as well.

Whew, as I said, LOTS of stuff being added to HFFL.
• Newly christened Gaming Group
• Soon to be forums
• Podcast
• Halo Ricochet League
• “MaC” Rounds web series

As well of course continuing with the bblog. So there is something for just about every Halo fan out there.

  1. THIS SOUNDS AWESOME!!!!!! by the way….i have skype and wouldn’t mind getting in on something like this. I really want to get more involved with the Halo community.

    • I’m going to wait roughly two months before having guests on. We need to get the format pretty well down pat as well as the audio. I’ve already got a couple guest pod-casters from other podcasts lined up to be on. After that then I’ll look for others to guest. Just keep messaging me Liquid. I’ll get you on the show soon.

    • Thanks! Yeah, I’d LOVE to see a Halo Wars 2, especially with the expanded universe that Halo 4 has brought in!

  3. I doubt I will have a chance to join your forums (due to everything being blocked at work) but I look forward to listening to your podcast! Considering your knowledge I think it’s a great idea and I wish you the best!
