(It's never on "tape", but you get it.)
Today at our second-to-last recording session for Man of the People, we are joined by even more Broadway talent!
Stephen DeRosa guest stars as insult comic Cappy Goldstein in Episode #8 "The String Kids" airing October 14. Hunter Foster and Brad Oscar are political consultants Doc and Wendell in Episode #9 "How To Lose An Election" airing October 21.
Don't miss Episode #7: "The Lawn Law" which airs tomorrow. Signup for email notifications and join the MAN OF THE PEOPLE Facebook group, too.
A new comedy web series I'm working on, "Man of the People", went live yesterday. Episodes are free and posted each Tuesday until Election Day (Nov. 4). I am the audio producer and editor for the whole series, and we're having a blast. You should really check it out.
Think 'The Nixon Tapes meets The Office'. Each episode of "Man of the People" is comprised of the "found" audio tapes of Francis "Woody" Woodson, the acting mayor of fictional small-town Daltonville U.S.A., as he records his time in office for posterity (and any future autobiographers).
Created by Kleban Award-winner Jeremy Desmon and his team of writers and voiced by amazing Broadway theatre talent (including one of the current Jersey Boys), each episode snatches an issue from the headlines of the 2008 election season and makes it local.
Our first episode, "Woody Takes on Childhood Obesity" was posted yesterday. Next week, "Woody Battles Big Oil" (canola oil) followed by the Reverend Wright-inspired "Mr. Doug's Haircuts for Boys".
To listen, just visit woody4mayor.com. There is a web-based player for each episode, or subscribe to our iTunes podcast feed to automatically download (and sync to your iPod) each episode mp3 (and sync'd to your iPod) when it's posted.
