Shownotes:

• Someone doing a bad impression checks in
• Hi to all of the new listeners -- it seems like there are a bunch of you
  
• My name is Matt
  
• I do another podcast called Digital Detroit Radio 2
• You should subscribe to it
• I am probably in Ireland when you are listening to this
• I'm so paranoid about the Podcast Awards thing that I figured that I must put something new out for all of the new listeners even though I am gone for now
  
• Derek & Alex check in about my lame joke
• I throw out a general announcement to all animals of planet Earth
• Scoreboard, me
• Mikel OD is worried about my health in the CJOTF
• I got some nice e-mails/comments from the other nominees of the Best "Mobile" award
• They were both pretty nice and quickly distanced themselves from some moron
• Ross calls in to explain why DDR qualifies as "mobile"
  
• Again
• And again!
• Since I am in Ireland, I am probably blissfully unaware of my impending defeat at the hands of Fr. Roderick
  
• Oh well, I will talk to you soon
