Jason Hunter over on the Realms-L list has posted a request for suggestions for content to go into a first ever Forgotten Realms podcast that he plans to create.

Here is a link to his archived request on the Realms-L list (if you’re a part of the Realms-L list you can reply from here also), along with some archived responses.

Or Jason can be reached at jhunter at bluemarble.net.

Please take the time to drop Jason a line and let him know what you'd like to hear. Words of encouragement wouldn't hurt either!

Good luck Jason!

09/20/2008: Tiger Army at the Catalyst in Santa Cruz. You wouldn’t believe how many females rode it out in the pit. Santa Cruz women are all of them beautiful. Now I know to add tough to that description.
6/27/2008: WALL-E is about the best damn movie Pixar has ever made. It had my heart racing and had me rooting for the good guy.
9/9/2006: Dave Mathews Band was off the hook at the Shoreline Amphitheater.

Never, ever read the game books too literally, or make such assumptions that what is omitted cannot be. Bad DM form, that.

And no matter how compelling a picture string theory paints, if it does not accurately describe our universe, it will be no more relevant than an elaborate game of Dungeons and Dragons. --paragraph 1, chapter 9, The Elegant Universe by Brian Greene

I'd really like to see sections on pronunciation of things in the realms. Cyric for example is pronounced so differently between people.
I'd like to hear about possible contingencies of countries. Much like America has plans for what to do in even the most obscure situation I think countries like thay have those contingencies and I'd like to hear some of those from even smaller places or cities.
In general I like small things that are available from ed's replies here and other sources... small things that i dont feel like searching for.

>>I'd like to hear about possible contingencies of countries.

You know, living down here near New Orleans.... that would make for a damn interesting article. For instance, since you mention Thay, Bezantur recently was hit by a tidal wave. My first thought when I heard about it was that Thay would have had contingent walls of force, walls of ice (these on the outskirts), and wall of stone spells to create temporary breakwaters should a wave above a certain height start towards this major city (not necessarily other coastal cities, but this one I figured would have such magical protection).
Similarly, I wonder about Evermeet and hurricanes. Since Faerun turns in the same direction as earth, most of the Sword Coast wouldn't have to worry about such much, but Evermeet and the Moonshaes would be ripe for Hurricanes to plow into.
Then there's the issue of things like droughts that could stand to devastate crops and cattle. What about forest fires in Aglarond or the Great Dale or the High Forest? Sinkholes created by underdark miners?

Alavairthae, may your skill prevail
