How Not To Sail Podcast - Ep. 52: First Annual DINGHY Awards™

Join me as we reveal YOUR winners!

Wanna see the video version? CLICK HERE. (I expect this may not stay on YouTube forever...for reasons I mention in the outro.)

Show Notes Why these DINGHY AwardsTM?

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 four categories nominated in Episode 51, 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!
