Our Reach

What follows is a communique from the illustrious Amfortas. It has been cleared by the Propaganda Ministry for general distribution because it contains no sensitive information that would compromise our position in any way:

"I am looking forward to working on and with it. Let him know that I am really keen.

"News – all my podcasts are being played on Radio.

"I had three ‘parts’ played on Tuesday. Two parts of the ‘Stolen Generation’ and the first part of Give a Dog a Bad Name. Your narrated script on Feminism as a Hate Movement is scheduled in the next few weeks as they work their way through.

"If you want to hear the programme, which is internet streamed live – it is also on an MP3 for download at : - http://www.dadsontheair.net/

"It was a one and a half hour programme and I guess my part was just over an hour of it.

"I had an almost immediate response, very positive, from Canada, of all places. The programme has ‘reach’. Perhaps you could mention it on your blog."

Amfortas

So, I have indeed mentioned it on my blog—as you see! That streaming web programme reaches. . . how many people? Thousands, I'm sure!

The start of the message might be a mystery for you, since no context is provided. Well, the "he" in question is somebody I will just call MysteryMan.

MysteryMan is the soon-to-be-author of the script for Amfortas's next podcast. (He says he'll send it to me next week.) I have been communicating with MysteryMan about this project, and helping to arrange stuff in general. As usual, Amfortas will record the script. Amfortas, with his authoritative, patriarchal British accent, makes a damn fine official "voice" of the men's movement in my opinion! ;) And it does my heart good to know that such a voice is speaking to thousands around the world via streaming web radio. Yee-haw!

MysteryMan's identity is a mystery only to you, the readers of this blog. It is no mystery to Amfortas and myself. But I am keeping it under wraps because, well, I reckon I'm just mysterious that way! ;-}

But yes, you will learn who MysteryMan is as soon as the podcast is released. I think you've heard his name before, hereabouts.

The podcast library is growing, as you will observe. And now that it is streaming live, a lot more people will decide to download the MP3s and then. . . copy them, and then. . . spread those copies everywhere on the web, by e-mail, by CD-ROM, and so on.

Viral pyramidic meme propagation, friends!
