I can't do a streaming video, but I can probably set it up so that it
can play as a "progressive download".  That way you can start playing
it before it is 100% downloaded.  This shouldn't be much of an issue
if you are using iTunes to view the podcast.

I'll also try to get a version posted to Google video, but they have
been rejecting it because they say it doesn't meet their terms of
service requirements.  I'm not sure why this is and it is hard to get
any type of "customer service" from Google.

I was concerned about using this as the first video since it doesn't
really explain anything.  I posted it first because it is the smallest
video that I've produced for the podcast.  I'm sort of using it as a
test to make sure that the servers it is hosted on can handle the
traffic.  I think has the weeks go by and more and more video podcast
episodes come online that you will see the theme more clearly.
