Bicentary Stalker Challenge

Irony July 23rd, 2008 How To Stalk WYOTK

It's our 200th Show! Hurry before our answering machine fills up.

Uh Oh! No video. You will need the Flash player and Javascript enabled to watch this show.

It’s the 200th show, and we gotta do something big. I mean, every podcast just about has a 100th show, but 200…that’s something.

How about a little challenge? You guys are always asking what our real names are, (No mom, not you, I know you know what our names are). Yeah, yeah, we could just tell you, but that’s no fun. You have to earn it.

Put on your detective hats and go do some digging. It’s time for the first and only What You Ought To Know Bicentary Stalker Challenge! Here are the rules:

You can work in teams or alone, and the first one to find out our names and leave it on a message at our office phone wins. You also have to leave your own e-mail so that we can stalk you back. Here’s how you’ll know you got the right place:

[Answering Machine:] “Hello, you’ve reached Titan Arts. Please leave us a message. And check out our new podcast at whatyououghttoknow.com. Thank you!”

It’s really not that hard. We pretended that we had amnesia, and we did it just the other day. Tell them what they win, Camera Guy! Oh wait, I have to do it.

You win a show. You pick it, we do it, and we can’t say no. Unless the subject’s not G-rated. In which case we will say no. There’s always that exception, that fine print’ll get you.

And all you party poopers, keep it fun. Because posting the answer in the comments will disqualify you. And it will incur the wrath of Zeus, Pele, Khali, plus you’ll get bad luck like you’ve never answered a chain letter ever. That’s like 63.254 BILLION years of bad luck. All yours. Try to live that down. You can’t.

And this contest, just like all the others, excludes family members, employees, 22′s, and anyone else who already knows the answer. You’re going to have to actually look it up.

Ready? Set? STALK!

Actually, we’re a little disappointed that some of you haven’t found it already. I mean, our audience is smart, and it’s sooo obvious. I guess you aren’t natural-born stalkers.
