There's a joint venture among several public radio companies to stage a contest (http://www.publicradioquest.com), with an apparent goal of finding one or more new hosts and shows for public radio. Some substantial cash prizes are involved too.
The contest is in multiple rounds. Round 1 simply asked for a two-minute clip that "shows off your personality." The deadline is today, so I spent a couple of hours this evening writing a two-minute piece ("Eley's Key to Relationships"), producing it, and uploading it. This clip has nothing to do with Escape Pod or science fiction; I went more general than that.
Of the ten semi-finalists, one will be chosen by popular vote. If you'd care to listen to my piece (http://www.publicradioquest.com/node/1390) and then jump through the hoops needed to vote for it, I'd deeply appreciate it. Especially if you actually like it.
Anyone else here who's entering this contest -- please post here and let us know about it! I'd like to hear everyone's.

Thanks for the head's up. You've got my vote, although I also voted for Mur. But if one of you gets the job, I'll be happy ;D

Done. Easier to get a bridge named after Stephen Colbert though... ;D
Should we vote against everyone else, too?

No need. 9 of the 10 finalists will be chosen by judges. It's the tenth that's snagged by the popular vote.
So, um, vote for me, (http://www.publicradioquest.com/node/2004) too.

Okay, I will.
Turns out here are 1,311 entrants, so doing a "Tonya Harding" would be impractical anyway.
