A commenter calling herself “Third” cried:
Don’t you have any qualms about quitting the IMAO podcast only to start another one–and shill it on IMAO? Amazing.?
Thanks for your comment, Third.
There hasn’t been a lot of talk about my role in future IMAO Podcasts, but the fact is that I provide voices in the Tuesday IMAO Podcast for these three characters:
-The Announcer
-George W. Bush
-Karl Rove
Contrary to the ill-informed “Third” commenter, I am still involved with the IMAO Podcast (or IMAudiO if you prefer). However, due to time constraints, I will not be doing the equivalent work of five full-time employees (talent director, scriptwriter, sound designer, primary voice talent, and promotions director) to produce the IMAO Podcast on a weekly basis.
For the IMAO Podcast to continue, the members of IMAO had to evenly distribute these duties among themselves. Because the lovely and talented SarahK had the time and inclination, she volunteered to become the executive producer of IMAudiO. I now get to be a contributor to the IMAO Podcast rather than the one person that was constantly e-mailing people to finish recording their lines, making cross-country calls from Seattle to Florida to discuss ideas with Frank (which always seemed to be in the middle of watching Sarah’s favorite TV show), and working every Sunday, staying up until 1 A.M. to finish encoding and posting the MP3 of the podcast so it would be ready for the fans when they woke up on Monday.
It should also be noted that one of those “full-time jobs” I mentioned was to promote the IMAO Podcast… apparently I will have to promote the fact that I am still featured in IMAO Podcast… And, just as Frank J. did when he was on RightWingNews and our own Laurence Simon does with his numerous side projects, I’m will promote my own side projects as well.
Hopefully this clears things up and please enjoy today’s new IMAudiO produced by SarahK. This Wizard of Oz-themed episode is cleverly nicknamed “IMAOz”
