Ep. 52: First Annual DINGHY Awards™ 01/20/2024

Ep. 52: First Annual DINGHY Awards™ Join me as we reveal YOUR winners! Wanna see the video version? . (I expect this may not stay on YouTube forever…for reasons I mention in the outro.) Show Notes Why these DINGHY Awards™? Glad you asked. As I mentioned in Ep. 51, I was racking my brain to figure out which bucket of haphazardly-organized audio source material I should turn into the fifty-first episode…when suddenly it hit me: Hey, I’ve done a s— ton of work to birth these first fifty episodes. As we get into a new year with bright prospects, why don’t we celebrate a little? And once I got going on it, it really got the creative audio juices flowing. Why not make it sound like a real awards show like the GRAMMYs®, I thought? …so I got into my REAPER audio software and got cookin’… I even made some wax-sealed envelopes—not just for our two other presenters, but for me. What can I say? That’s just how I roll sometimes. How did I select the winners? In short…I didn’t. Here’s how the winners were selected: You voted. I counted ’em. (Of course, the “accounting firm of Dewey, Cheatham & Howe” is—hopefully—fictitious, and the “Special Merit Awards” are just great excuses to recognize cool people. But in those , it’s very simple. You voted, I counted. And THANK YOU for voting!) The results should be visible later today at the above link. (I *think* I set them to become visible by 12:30, right after the premiere…but who knows?) Sondra and Jimmy’s Blog I mentioned in the podcast about Sondra’s blog about their current journey….which is totally making me jealous!
