We Got Played on CBC Radio! Huzzah!
Errol: CBC Radio, Here and Now had a Valentine Love Song Contest, and on a whim, I sent Geek Love Song (the one off of the upcoming CD) in!
And it won third place! HUZZAH!
This is a triumph for geeks everywhere! I honestly didn’t think it would get picked, and for that matter, forgot about it until I received the email. Only thing is, I was late! I didn’t get to hear it! Stay tuned, because when that archive is up, I’m downloading that sucker!
I’ve been talking in ALL CAPS for the last hour, I’m exhausted from excitement! 😀
Update: You would think the other two winners would have social marketed this thing… but NO! I can’t find any mention who the other two winners are, or where to download. Will let you know. 😀
Update 2: Hee hee, was just watching “Latest Tweets” on their website trying to find show archives, and you guys are all over it retweeting GLS. You guys are awesome. 😀
Update 3: Hey! I found the person who won 2nd place in the contest! Huzzah! His name is Darin Martin. He has a blog on blogger, and I tried leaving a comment twice, and I think I failed both times. So just in case it now looks like I’m some crazed comment stalker, I just stopped trying.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Again, congrats :). The all caps talk was hilarious. Now maybe we can convince you you’re talented :P.
@Manda, I have many talents! I can eat more rice than you!
Do you guys know who got 1st and 2nd? I missed the show but really was hoping to find out.
I heard 2nd place, but had to leave before 1st place came on. 😀 Let me do some google searching.
@Errol, have they posted any of the audio archives yet?
@Kelson, not that I could find yet. 🙁
@Errol, we must find that ONE person on the internet who archives EVERY SINGLE STREAM of live data. There is always someone.
@Kelson, my sister was so excited she’s willing to buy the episode. 😀
@Errol, buy? how does one buy an episode? Like, full rights or just the copy?
@Kelson, a copy I think. 😀 It’s on there website, you can buy episodes. 😀 Hopefully we can just find a clip though…
@Errol,
It’s on their website,
FTFY
@Errol, see, I need an editor. 😀
@Errol, not me, that was just my Reddit Grammar Nazi taking over for a second. XD
@Kelson, wait, are we friends on Reddit? I’m Errol. 😀
@Errol, we are now. Also, we seem to be hitting that max threading thingy again.
@Errol, HUZZAH! And yes… poor @mac. I hope it doesn’t ping him every time we talk in his thread. 😀
@Errol, Do what you will with it. Just make sure I get copies for Mom and me!!!!
@Kelson, No, not just *willing* to buy. I did buy! Yeah! On their website they said I could buy clips. I went on the site where you’re supposed to be able to buy clips and it went up to 10:30am. I yelled NO!!!! and beat at the sky. So, I called and they told me they had a “glitch” on their website. She said, “I can’t do it now but I’ll look for it next week and send it to you. Just give me your credit card.” Let’s hope she’s not having a grand old time over the long weekend with my credit card number… Anyway, FYI to Errol, I gave her your address to mail it to since the company is also in Toronto and it would be faster…
@Lizette Tanner, WHOA! Totally cool! Am I allowed to cull clips from it? 😀
@mac, Ta daa, I found second place:
