Today Europe, tomorrow The World

So here we are, some 20 odd episodes down the track and that august institution The People's World Podcast Awards is crying out for some Waiting for Death action http://www.wonkanaproductions.com/waitingfordeath.php . And well they might. My ineffable colleague and WFD creator Colin McGinness has slaved over many a hot ISDN and toiled relentlessly at his Pro Tools to realise his comedy vision. A disparate band of voice overs and presenters, weary of their strapline existence were ready to throw off their shackles and get political, subservice and rude! It was and still is the only professionally produced sketch comedy in a podcast only format. No BBC might lurking behind every script and no sprawling commercial entity providing a vast pool of funds. Just creativity, dedication and goodwill. Already it's caught the eye of our European cousins and we're happy to take your votes in the name of democracy and err vanity. Of course, we don't just want to be in the competition, we want to win it. I know that makes us sound like Andy Murray, but trust me when I say we don't share the unruly curls or stroppy demeanour.

This is how it works :
