It approaches
Hello friends of Mamo,
We will be recording our 200th episode early next week. We would like to invite you to be a part of this milestone event for us. Episode 200 will be this year’s summer box office preview. We will handicap all the entrants and make our picks and predictions for the top ten at the box office. Here’s what we’d love to include from you:
1) Pick the movie YOU think will be the number one film at the box office this summer. (list below)
2) Record, using the voice recorder on your phone or some other digital option, a short explanation of your pick and why you think it will be number one.
3) Email that recorded audio file to myself and Matt Brown.
We would like to record the show by Tuesday of next week, so if you have a chance to do this this weekend then that would be great. If it’s in our inbox by 5pm Tuesday it will most likely be in the show the following week.
Thanks in advance for participating, but mostly thanks for listening,
Matthew Price (and Matt Brown in spirit)
