Well, that didn't work! Kickstarter campaigns seem to attract a bucketload of spam messages and not much else, so it's time to do two things:

(1) Launch our startup fundraising platform - SponsorBid.

(2) Use SponsorBid to re-launch our sponsorship drive.

If you run a small business and would like to support our podcast, please visit our SponsorBid page - www.sponsorbid.au/ive-been-everywhere.

You can enter the auction to sponsor one or more episodes at a price that suits you and your business. Sponsor an episode and we'll do a live read about your business in the middle of your episode!

An affordable sponsorship opportunity for every small business!

PS: If you are a podcaster and are looking to launch your own SponsorBid campaign, please visit our web site - www.sponsorbid.au and get in touch.

ANNOUNCING The I've Been Everywhere Project!

In May 1962, Lucky Starr released a song called I've Been Everywhere. In the lyrics, a hitchhiker tells an accommodating truck driver all the places he's been to in Australia.

Over 60 years later, the song remains an Aussie icon but what do we know of the towns and cities that are mentioned?

Time to find out in The I've Been Everywhere Project!

In this 95-episode podcast series, hosted by Neil Butler - Media and produced by Podversations, we'll chat to Lucky and then head off to every single town he mentions in the song - from Oodnadatta in South Australia to Wollondilly in New South Wales. We'll chat to a local and find out where the town or suburb is and what it's famous for - apart from being mentioned in I've Been Everywhere.

Subscribe in your favourite podcast store or visit www.theibeproject.au.

PS: We've only gone and got Lucky Starr as our guest on the first episode!!
