Get that fresh clean feeling!

You know I love promos, right? In kind of a slow-mo trainwreck sort of way, but I like having them around. It’s a thing. Stop judging me.

This new promo was conceived of by the always fantastic Cayenne Chris Conroy, who is the dominant personality over at the Teknikal Diffikulties podcast.

Remember TekDiff, that podcast I’m always telling people to listen to, because it’s one of the very few comedy podcasts out there that is actually funny? That one.

So, for those of you paying attention, this is officially named with Wash Out promo, and if it’s not up on the promo page right now, it will be very soon. Feel free to stick it wherever you like

I have been on a total promo kick, lately. Not only is this promo the utter unalloyed bombast most podcasts wish they could get away with, it’s a bit of commentary on my other promos-which-I-refuse-to-edit. ( I consider it a mark of success in my plan to keep myself out of my podcast, honestly.)

The music was kindly provided by Jeremiah Pena, an enormously talented young man who makes media and puts it on his website, JeremiahPena.com. He’s got more that you should check out, so go to his site.

So, feel free to take this file, or any of my promo files, and play them on your show. You don’t need my permission, but if you let me know you’re doing it, you’ll make my day. I’ll go listen and tell my friends, honest, cuz I’m cool like that.

*thumbsup*

Also, by the time you’re reading this, hopefully, there will already be a link in the sidebar for you to directly access my promos. If not, check back soon.

Jesus, Mary and Charlie Chaplin, it’s episode 100!

This time, we have the inimitable Zach Ricks, known far and near as @madpoet, generously creating this Braindouche! promo with his most talented wife, who’s name I honestly don’t know. Why the heck would he do that? The story goes something like this…

Zach, about once a week, gets through the all the work he needs to, and comes up with what he’s referred to at least once as “a few spare cycles”. Then, he goes on twitter and offers to help. Anyone who has a request, he’ll try and help. I’ve seen him fulfill requests to write stories, finish his own projects, write stuff for other people, and create promos for podcasts, and I don’t even know what else because I’m usually too busy to pay enough attention to twitter to see what he’s up to. It’s a really neat experiment in making and in quick-fire creativity, and amazingly generous, and also one killer sort of promotional gimmick.

Thanks, Zach, you’re awesome.

Did I say promotional? Because Zach also does this fairly new podcast called The Mad Poet Files, and it’s just him reading his fiction, and it’s exactly the sort of simple, well-produced, to the point, bullshit-free podcast I adore. He also does other podcasts too, but I don’t listen to them. Stories from The Mad Poet Files are also for sale in ebook formats, and if you’re into that sort of thing, I suggest considering dropping a couple of bucks in his ehat.

I’ve been podcasting for, quite seriously, I-don’t-know-how-long, so I figured it was time to put together a show promo. All these quotes are genuine, unprompted quotes from real actual podcasters talking about me and my show.

Many thanks to Jared at the Voice of Free Planet X, Bruce of Audio2U, Lorenzo at the Psychedelic Salon, David at Grizzly’s Growls, and Robin (and Parviz laughing like a maniac in the background) at Schnauzer Logic.
