A new arrival

Colin was rightly proud of his new telescopic stand and cradle.
Sorry to disappoint, but this isn't the depraved opening salvo in a John Paul sketch for Waiting for Death, the comedy podcast extravaganza. However, this newest of additions to the Wonkana family can only enhance the rich tapestry of comedy in our World Podcast Award nominated series. We have a new studio microphone for our facility in Bristol. Its custodian, Aussie Col, can barely contain his ever widening grin. The mic arguably sits at the top of the production tree and this particular one, to use technical speak, is the "mutt's nuts". Yesterday was spent voicing a veritable cornucopia of new material for WFD; from a movie trailer pastiche to innumerable John Paul vignettes of utter filth. As a veteran of assorted studios ( and slipping surreptitiously into my anorak ), I must confess that the main Wonkana studio microphone is superior to any that I have encountered over the years. Never known for our false modesty, we are a podcast production company at the top of our game and this purchase is the icing on the cake. Or the mic on the stand.
