Hey Fellow Escapists!

A big thanks to everyone who offers questions and encouragement to Frankie!
I think this has a bigger fan-base here on the Escapist then it does on the radio station it's made for!

As some of you know, I work at a radio station as a producer.
Not only is this job awesome, but it also allows me to get creative!

One such way I tap into my creative side is that I write, voice, and produce a segment called 'Listener Mail', where listeners email in questions, and I answer them as my New York persona: Frankie the Cab driver.

For the record, I do the voice of Frankie, but not AJ the Wonderdog. He's a DJ on our station.

We've arrived at the 50th episode of Listener Mail!
I know that only a relatively small audience here at the Escapist actually listens to this, or even knows about it, but a big thanks to all those who have listened, and even contributed with new questions for the crazy cab driver known as Frankie! I just do this because I love it, and it's good to know that other people (No matter how many that is) enjoys listening to it as much as I enjoy making it!

i got the link on IRC, and I must admit, I found it pretty funny... it'd be a nice regular feature.

I, for one, enjoyed it.
Keep posting them, please!

Now, why is it that I've never seen you in a Skorgy?
Haha, well I don't know? I don't have Skype, for one!
And no-one invites me.

Just keep yelling, "Skorgy? Skorgy!" on the IRC and you'll get an invite soon enough.
I mean, it works for everyone I know who'se tried it, but you gotta be careful to not be spamming about it, or else you'll get modd'd.

Isn't this advertising? Which I believe is against the rules.
No, it's not advertising.
I'm not linking any outside site, I don't even tell you what radio station I work for!

I'm just posting up a fun segment I do at work for listening enjoyment!

Can I make a thread saying where you can find my videos or music if I don't directly link to youtube? I'm not affiliated with any outside corporations. Boy, I would really like to get the word out there. I'm pretty sure it would be locked, though, unless you are setting a precedent.

Forum stuff aside, you got a good voice for radio. I do commentary for a wrestling show here in MA, also done a couple vo's for commericals for local businesses. Best job in the world, I can imagine radio being quite fun.

It never hurts to double check with the official staff.
Provided it's done tastefully (And not trying to get money or something), I can't see it being an issue. But, again, it'd probably be best to check with official staff.

Thanks! I love doing VO work, and I'm the guy who puts the commercials together!
It's a great job! Even on the worst of days, I love this job.
