What PHL gains: weekly news of a fascinating insight into a small, new company that makes games
What UWE gains: expanded public awareness about NS2; new people finding out about Natural-Selection

I know many people in this community that joined when PHL posted a news article on Natural-Selection v2.01 coming out. It might be prudent to use these podcasts to get public awareness about NS2 through the same channels that helped create the NS community.
I credit DrFuzzy for initializing this idea.

Comments
Yeah, I found my way to various half-life mods through PHL, NS included.
I wonder if they'll take up on it though, since it's somewhat irrelevant to half-life 1/2, since it is a standalone game rather than a mod.
Very polite but they don't seem to think that:
A. There is a NS community
B. The NS community cares or is large enough to warrant much consideration
The did seems interested in releases of functioning source code, but as far as the podcasts themselves it seems there needed to me more support / interest in them.
