D3P0 User Submitted Sponsor Reads!
HEY WORLD!
The fine Mr. Michael Aranda and I have been chit chatting away as to what we can do to make Dan 3.0 better and one idea we've had that is immediately implementable is to let you guys record the audio for the beginning-of-the-episode short sponsor reads. Like, instead of me saying "This episode of Dan 3.0 is brought to you by [insert sponsor here]", one of YOU could do it.
H'OKAY! SO! Here's how we're gonna do this. If you'd like to do a sponsor read for d3p0 for this week...
1) Call this number: 1 (402) 218-1023
2) Press whatever buttons you need to to leave a message
3) Record one of the following as a message:
"This is [your name] from [your location] and this Episode of Dan 3.0 is brought to you by Gamefly. Go to www.gamefly.com/POGOBAT for your free trial membership."
OR
"This is [your name] from [your location] and this Episode of Dan 3.0 is brought to you by Netflix. Go to www.netflix.com/POGOBAT for your free trial membership."
OR
"This is [your name] from [your location] and this Episode of Dan 3.0 is brought to you by GoDaddy."
We'll take care of the rest! Awesome possum! Let's do this! Don't be a zombie! Peace!

DUDE ITS COOL THAT WE, VIEWERS, CAN SPONSOR READ IT. BUT CAN YOU CREATE A SITE THAT WE CAN UPLOAD THE RECORDED VOICE SO YOUR FAN HALF WAY AROUND THE WORLD, LIKE ME, CAN SPONSOR TOO!
I WISH YOU COULD CONSIDER THIS REQUEST
Wow!! Brazil, Argentina, Germany, Croatia, this is awesome!!
I'm from Mexico!! Dan, you should come tu Mexico!
Couple easy solutions for some of the concerns posted here.
1. Skype. Skype allows you to make international calls for MUCH cheaper than the phone system and it's really easy to setup.
2. This one is for Dan/Crew just let people post .wav or .mp3 files here in the comments. Tons of free hosting out there for files. I see why you went with the phone idea to get consistent audio and break down the techy barrier but most people that can watch podcasts can record an audio file i would think :). Plus as you see the phone kind breaks the international appeal.
Maybe look at what fellow rev3 show Bytejacker does and go from there.
I'll be calling in tomorrow with mine. Local call since i am also from Lincoln :)
Is it just possible to do an audio take instead if you're outside of the US? If you really insist it has to be a phone call, could you also at least post the international dialing code so I don't ring someone from Germany or something...?
Hi Dan, I'm a brazilian subscriber of yours and I'd like to do one of those intros...so I suggest: wouldn't it be better if we just send the link or upload to youtube?
=*
I call from Canada, and my problem was the same as Lori:
"Press 1 to listen to messages"and
"Press 2 to hang out with other callers."
I kept listening until I was told something along the lines of "Hi, it's [insert name or I don't remember], bitch!" said in a very sex hotline voice.
whoa. What is THIS number????????????????
Darn it, I wanted to call from Australia :(
Can we please have you set up a Skype account so we foreigners can record the intro too. Dammit, I'm gonna suggest this on Revision3
hey hey, how much is it if i call from Mexico D: ? WILL I END UP WITH NO MONEY FOR COLLEGE XD?
