The Raider Cast

The RaiderCast is a weekly podcast launched in 2005 dedicated to the Las Vegas Raiders. It airs every Friday at 7:00 p.m. Pacific time on SpreeCast.com or can be seen on Theraidercast.com.[1] It has aired over 150 episodes. During the shows live broadcast fans of the show can interact with the hosts Dave and John via internet chat room.

Typical broadcast

If the previous week's game was a home game for the Raiders, Dave, Shawn, and John play interviews recorded during the tailgating party before and sometimes after the game. This often includes interviews with well-known fans, chatroom/viewers, and players.

Dave and John will then discuss the positives and the negatives from the previous weeks game (win or lose). This part of the show is referred to as "The Good and the Bad". They will offer their analysis and suggest what they feel the Raiders should have done.

Raider News, the next segment, consists of an update of player transactions that the Raiders completed over the last week. This includes the signing and releasing of players, placing of players on injured reserve, benching of players, injury updates, charitable work being done by players and or management, and anything else the Raiders have released to the press. Dave and John then discuss the news with interaction from the fans who are there live in the Chat Room. Dave often reads the chat room type on air.

Raider News is followed by predictions for the next week's game. John and Dave voice their opinions about how the Raiders should play and offer their "Keys to the Game".

Next is a break with a song about the Raiders is played. Bands featured include Raiderhed, My Hairy Brother, and Silver and Blackout.

During the next segment the voice mails and e-mails received are read on the air.

After this Dave and John thank the listeners for joining the show and end with thanking the troops for fighting for America's freedom, a tradition that started when Dave's son was doing a tour of duty in Iraq.

gollark: More like micromanagement by someone who believes that they have the right to control fansites too.
gollark: (this is now up on the forums).
gollark: ```Unfortunately, it is unavailable, possibly forever, because (according to an email):Thank you for your request to access the Dragon Cave API from host dc.osmarks.tk. At this time, your request could not be granted, for the following reason: You have, through your own admission on the forums, done the exact thing that got EATW banned from the API.This may be a non-permanent issue; feel free to re-submit your request after correcting any issue(s) listed above.Thanks, T.J. Land presumably due to this my server and computer (yes, I should use a VPS, whatever) can no longer access DC. Whether this is sickness checking, scraping, or using EATW's approximation for optimal view count I know not, but oh well. Due to going against the unwritten rules of DC (yes, this is why I was complaining about ridiculous T&C issues) this hatchery is now nonfunctional. Service may be restored if I actually get some notification about what exactly the problem is and undoing it will not make the whole thing pointless. The text at the bottom is quite funny, though.```
gollark: I could add a T&C stating that it is the hatchery's automatic systems' prerogative to take stuff which is sick out of rotation, but none would care.
gollark: They effectively give helping permission by submitting it to a hatchery, but that's irrelevant.
