			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From now on we will be posting audio and video stories. The video stories will be exactly the same as the current audio stories but hopefully with some entertaining video thrown in. There should be a roughly equal mix of audio only and video posts depending on time constraints etc. If the video posts do well I will try and increase the amount of video over audio that we do.</p>
<p>If you have any preference one way or the other please add a comment.</p>
