ATB: Radiotopia Hysteria Drives Twitter Community Insane
//SORRY FOR THE SPAM//
Remember last week I was blabbing on about Radiotopia-goodness, and their live event for their kickstarter campaign? Well in an exciting turn of events, they have promised this:
--
"When we hit $425,000, we’ll host Radiotopia parties throughout 2015 in LA, SF, Boston, NYC, Dublin, and London. Plus, we’ll come to two other cities that create the most noise on Facebook and Twitter. At least two Radiotopians will be at each party and they’ll be free for everyone."
--
They've now updated the goal here, talking about "leveling up" shows (which basically means the more bones they have, the more they can produce, so a weekly show might become 2x a week etc.) But they have said nothing on what place is making the most noise...
I have never tweeted so hard in my life, but I am willing to battle the 284 million other twitter users to get Roman Mars' attention. So that's where I need you! Please continue / start tweeting about Radiotopia coming to Sydney, and make sure to tag them in it. If you have room, put Roman Mars in idc. Once you've done that, let me know via Facey/twitter direct message/piprasmussen94@gmail.com and I'll retweet you on the ATB page. Got it? Good.

Now we say later skater to our lovely Jess, who is joing Heidi and a bunch of other excellents in Chicago for Third Coast. WOO! So since our two captains have gone.. what does that mean?
I'm totally kidding, I am so not the captain of this beautiful ship. But I'm gonna say that there will be little to no reply from our ep@allthebestradio.com address, so if you want something, email me on contact@allthebestradio.com and I'll do my darndest to help you out.

//SYDNEY//
Still registering interest for the Sydney Summer Doco Series. It will involve making a longform story, or helping out on one, and we’ll run two workshops to help you along the way. If you’ve been listening to Serial, if you have a burning curiosity about a concept like #1431 Cities You’ll Never See On Screen this is for you. Send an email to ep@allthebestradio.com and we’ll put you on the list to receive the emails when the first workshop comes up early December.
//MELBOURNE//
The West Writers Group collaboration is almost ready to emerge into the real world. There'll be a listening event and the awesome people at the Footscray Arts Centre will be designing projections to go with the audio stories. Head along on Nov 15, click here for the event!

The next pitch meeting will be this weekend on Sunday from 4pm at 4ZZZ (264 Barry Pararde, Fortitude Valley). Come and meet radio folk involved in the show, hear about the upcoming episodes and let us know your ideas.
