The li'l YouTube I tried to keep afloat for the past couple of years is now leaner, meaner and ready to rock the fiery foods world...

I'm talking about The Weekly Firecast! It is now a downloadable audio podcast, which is perfect for listening to in your car, during your workout, while you're gardening, or just sitting in front of the computer and need something cool to listen to!

I'm going to focus on the subject matter that chileheads and foodies love and crave: chile peppers, hot sauce, BBQ, buffalo wings, salsa, chili con carne and more!

You can learn more about it on the Official Weekly Firecast page at http://www.2guystalking.com/firecast/.

Here are the first two episodes so far:

Episode 001 - Interview with John "CaJohn" Hard of CaJohn's Fiery Foods
