While recording our August podcast, Jenn asked a very important question: what’s a bumper?

Even though this clip didn’t make it into the official podcast, we thought it would be educational to post it here in the Extras section.

And if you are thinking of recording a bumper for our podcast, you should also be aware of the contest we’re running! It’s open until we fill all five available spots.

Over on Twitter we’ve mentioned our need for bumpers. You know, those little recorded bits that divide sections of the podcast from one another. They also usually tell you what you’re listening to.

Out of all our assorted Twitter followers, our friend KC was the only one to take on the challenge. Yeah, that’s right, he’s better than you. Have a listen: Press 1.

Here’s the thing, we need more.

Sadly, it looks like you guys need a little more coaxing than the occasional sad tweet from us. So how does this sound? The first 5 people to record a bumper on our feedback line will receive a little knitted thing. We can’t promise what the little knitted thing will be but it will be cool. Cross our hearts, it will be cool.

Got that? Call our feedback line, 215.839.6373 (215.839.NERD), leave us a bumper-like message, include your name and contact information, and we’ll get in touch with you about receiving a super cool knitted doodad. Easy!
