ExplicitEpisode Eight - A Little Ketchup to Add Consistency | What can we learn from a The Accursed Mountebanks Episode Eight - A Little Ketchup to Add Consistency? That size matters, as does shape? That form following function has meaning for sketch podcast-lovers as well as detractors? Or perhaps the deeper lesson that the contents of an outwardly "plain" sketch podcast may provide a more sensual, complex, and rewarding experience than those of a superficially beautiful one? The Accursed Mountebanks family has been involved with sketch podcast-making since 1756, but it was two centuries later that Barry Sommers conceptualized a glass made specifically to enhance the flavors and aromas of a designated podcast. Through an involved process each style of podcast is crafted to accentuate the strengths, while minimizing the weaknesses, of a particular sketch. This is done through changes in the size and shape of the sketches, the diameter of the opening and the cut and polished lip which directs the sketches towards a specific area of the ear. Small wonder The Accursed Mountebanks are preferred by sketchifiers and podcastophiles world wide for their ability to transform the perception of a sketch podcast. | 7/6/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
