The deal was... for people to take a picture of Bo and Luke Duke (John Schneider and Tom Wopat) from the classic TV Series (Dukes of Hazzard), and then photoshop them into a picture from the FireFly TV Series.
The OtakuGeneration cast picked their favorite, and the winner has won a Firefly TV-Series Boxset.

Shownotes :: (show 005) :: (website) :: (podcast feed) :: (direct download) :: (direct iTunes link) With our guest Joe Croasdaile, recorded live on July 11th, 2005.
(picture courtesy of AnimeMusicVideos.org) Joe Croasdaile talks with us about being an AMV creator and video editor.
Along with our special guest Nathan Bezner. Nathan joins in on the phone with us this week, while we tried to interview Joe. This show ended up not being our normal show format... before we even started "recording" for the show... we spent most of our time talking and catching up. The recording of the show ran longer then usual, and we never kept strictly to the interview format... we totally derailed. I ended up cutting a lot of stuff out to keep the time down... and to make it sound more like our normal format.
One of these days, I think we will get a bunch of AMV creators together and just tell stories, and make that into one of the future shows, instead of a specific guest. =D
This week's show was a bit explicit. This is not something we're going to do every week. It just happened to work out that way; this week.

NOTE: Just to clarify, I like shrinkster.com, in fact I love it. My comment during the podcast, was more about us using it for our podcast, and possibly abusing the free service overtime. So I'm considering creating my own URL redirector / tracker, so we don't run into that problem. That's all, I just wanted to be more clear about that. I <3 shrinkster. *hugs shrinkster.com*
