I do not seem to be able to make a podcast on my own yet a session with juliette proved fruitful. Could we do a group podcast discussion on the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve for the Hauraki Gulf for Waiheke Radio?

About the Project

The Waiheke Podcasting Project was started in 2009 by Waiheke Radio with the generous support of a grant from the Waiheke Community Board and with the assistance of Community Education at Waiheke High.

Beautiful Waiheke Island

Using Archive.org for the WPP

While you can use your member page to display podcasts on the project one small drawback to using Ning (the site that is running WPP) is that it will only allow 20MB podcast files to be uploaded into the system. One way around this is to upload your podcast to Archive.org then paste the URL of the file as it appears there into where the Add Podcast upload dialog here says "Paste the URL here".
