In this episode, Ilysa Bierer and Kira Slye discuss how they met on Etsy.com, through the Polymer Clay Artists Guild of Etsy.com also known as PCAGOE. Both hosts live in Florida, Ilysa in North Florida and Kira in South Florida. They meet to film their videocast and use the internet to record their podcast about the popular art and craft medium of polymer clay. This includes the oven bake clays you can find at craft stores under the brand names Fimo, Premo, Sculpey and Sculpey III, as well as Cernit (another German brand) and Kato Polyclay. Listen to hear all about their upcoming plans for tutorials, webisodes (videocasts), podcasts, and products.

Make sure to tune in on June 1 at Polymerclayproductions.com, when Episode 1 is released. You can also browse the shop and talk in the forum and read much more about your Hosts and polymer clay in general on the website.

This post is just an FYI. Our first podcast will be officially launched on June 1, 2007. Prior to this, we will be releasing Episode #0- an introduction to your hosts, and a brief overview of our project and intentions.
