We are one.

One year ago we made this. Twelve months on we are celebrating the little community that has built up around the podcast by choosing songs based on a birthday theme, so have some cake.

I’m listening, but I’m heading outside to look for the birthday cow. (Moooo!!!)
Awesome picks, everyone! FiL, your intros continue to crack me the %#@! up!Happy Birthday, Contrast Podcasters!

Awww celebratory group hug of joy…:)
I’m listening to this right now at work and greatly enjoying it. I can’t believe it’s already been a year!
And yes, I was just going to add that FILs intro once again has caused me to spray coffee onto the computer monitor. You never cease to crack me up. Lyle’s and ZB’s are hilarious too.(it’s tempting to compile all my favorite past intros into a montage…so many come to mind).

Weeeeeeee!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY Contrast Podcast! Thanks for all the marvelous gifts! You guys are all awesome! Cheers!

Hey y’all, Happy Birthday and thanks Tim for this excellent podcast !!! I use to consider Tuesdays as the worst day of the week, but it’s gone up in my estimation, as i always look forward to the Contrast magic.

Happy Birthday Contrast Podcast! Can’t wait to see what Year 2 brings!

what can i say? being a part of the contrast podcast has been one of the best things i’ve experienced in a long time. (yeah, i know, i’ve got to get a life!)

seriously, though, this means a lot to me, and i look forward to many more podcasts to come. everyone went all-out this week, and i’ve enjoyed it immensely. : )

cheers and happy birthday to all!

It’s my oldest daughter’s 3rd birthday today. Thanks Tim, I couldn’t have hoped for a more appropriate Contract Podcast.

Happy Birthday everyone. I continue to be in awe of the style and panache of so many of these introductions, but it’s great to be on the team and a big big thank you to Tim.
