Here’s the PDF of part four cold knife. I’m very happy to announce we have a total of three “ROAD GUIDES”. The official name for contributors to 12 volt theater will be Road guides. The rest of you who listen in will simply be Travelers. You could thank Lowell of Columbus for the idea.Thanks to all your interest I have convince my wife to let me spend a few hundred dollars on some new equipment. Now the story portion of the pod cast will no longer be recorded off of a $40 USB headset mic. Plus I have a CD of sound effects and other background music. I have no idea if any of this will be good or not. I’m also working on acquiring a version of Audition. I have downloaded the trial version and I’m going to play around with that to see if it’s worth while. I feel sorry for those people who jumped in early only to chicken out too quickly. All of them are missing the fun. Believe me I’m having a blast sharing the story with all of you and getting your input. It is a far more pleasant experience than I thought it would be.
I’m going to be focusing more on the delivery of the pod cast from now on. If you listen to the difference between episode one and episode four you’ll see that there’s been some pretty big improvements. I hope to keep getting better at this. I know I won’t be as good as the folks at Second Shift or Space Casey. I simply don’t have the resources or personnel. When I say resources I’m talking about time and the fact that I live in a truck. I will say that my pod cast is better than some others that don’t have nearly the same limitations.
Don’t forget to check out Jack Mangan’s Deadpan to hear some of my rants and nonfiction stories. I’m also experimenting with production techniques. I’m sending those over to Dubshack at The Farpoint Recap.
Sometime next week I will have part five: Severance

Hey Jack! Congratulations on the improvements - I can’t wait to hear the differences. It’s amazing that you are editing this from your truck! I can see how you have the time, while driving, to think about the story and maybe jot down ideas - but to record and edit your intros in the sleeper, wow! It must be better that some closets that I have heard that people are using to record their pod casts. And it keeps you out of the strip club at night
