Congratulations to SusanKay, the winner of the new Eureka soundtrack CD by Bear McCreary! We will have another new contest starting up soon, and in the meantime we have a sort of bizarre and off-the-cuff contest in this week’s podcast.
September 29, 2008 – 11:17 am
We’re giving away another copy of the Eureka Soundtrack CD this week, with music by Bear McCreary. Entering couldn’t be simpler. You can send listener mail to the podcast at podcast@fandomania.com, or you can leave a comment on any post on the blog. The e-mails and comments need to be worthwhile and not just contest spam, so give it some thought. Every post you comment on this week will give you an additional entry into the contest. We’ll count all the entries through midnight Eastern time on Sunday night (October 5 / 6), and we’ll do a random drawing to find the winner.
Good luck!
