MT advertising
February 24th, 2008
If you listened right to the end of MT#34 you may have heard me mention that the show is now officially signed to the PodShow network (I must remember to discuss this in MT#36!). One of the reasons for doing this was to get some audience-building network-wide promotion for TableRappers, but also the time was [...]
