Discuss JavaScript Libraries
With the huge variety of libraries out there (JQuery, Mootools, DoJo, YUI, etc etc) how do you choose which one to use? Do you standardise on just one library? What about if you want to use LightBox (Scriptaculous/Prototype) and JD Smooth Gallery (Mootools) on the same web site, for example?
Status: plannedGreat idea. We should interview John Resig (the creator of jquery) about this. He did an excellent talk on this at @media

do a Q&A episode
Maybe a Rissington podcast style Q&A episode? Will probably have to be not 100% serious if you want to fill 45 mins. Also If the person asking the question is watching the video feed, they can always ask it via the co-host feature on there.
The Rissington gents have been mocking you for no... more

Used by desktop application developers as well as those working on sites and web apps, systems like CVS and Subversion are becoming more popular. Especially where you have teams and distributed networks working on the same project.

Please, stop Paul's mic being distorted/over-driven
Liking the content, but after 120 podcasts, how come the audio quality still sounds a bit duff? Marcus' microphone seems to sound ok, but Paul's sounds distorted and a bit crap. There's obviously quite a bit of care and post production that goes into the podcast, but it's undone a bit by the bad voice track.

Shorten the Intro music
Over a minute for intro music is waaaayyyyy too long - a 10-15 second signature would be plenty in my view and would save me from having to skip along my itunes looking for the 'actual' start of the show.
