Many podcasters do it.

The Linux Outlaws described how they do their show in a recent episode. It's been a while since I listened to it, and I can't remember whether they described in detail how they do the live stream, but it might be a starting point.

Edit: Though Todd Cochrane, who's responsible for that site, is a Windows guy. He is though an accomplished podcaster who regularly streams live video.
