I have Big News about “Big Love,” the new HBO series coming March 12 – they’re advertising on the “Art of Gracious Living” podcast. I’m very excited about this. It’s a cool thing for me, especially since my podcast is so new. www.artofgraciousliving.com or http://www.podcasternews.com/details.php?N=792 to listen on your computer or portable device.
I haven’t gotten to see the show yet, but have watched a trailer. You can see it by going to www.hbo.com/biglove. Time magazine says Big Love “may prove to be… the next cool thing on TV.” It’s certainly an interesting concept – a man with three wives who live in adjoining houses. It sounds like “Desperate Housewives,” but with fewer husbands. Of course, HBO gave us “The Sopranos” so they obviously know a thing or two about interesting concepts.
I’m thrilled to have one of the podcasts they’re advertising on. Podcasting is one of the parts in my plan to make a living being me, so I’m tickled to have an advertiser so early in the show’s history, and really excited it’s a well known company. Obviously, my show is far too new for this to generate tons of money for me, but it’s a big step in the right direction.
It’s also exciting that a company of HBO’s stature understands the value of podcasting. Podtrac and PodcasterNews have been instrumental in making this deal happen. Podcasting is going to be a driving force in the advertising market, and it’s gratifying to see that some companies are already grasping that.
That has been my big news for a few days but I couldn’t announce it until this week. Needless to say, I’m tickled pink.
