Announcement: Going on Hiatus
This is not so much a new episode as a special announcement that Addicted to Race is going on hiatus for awhile. We’ve been “on the air” pretty much continuously for about two and a half years.
Don’t worry, this is not the end of the show! I definitely plan on coming back to it next year with some new ideas for the format, including some experimentations with video, but taking a hiatus will really help me get some other time-sensitive New Demographic projects off the ground. Then I can come back to the podcast with a clear mind and implement some new ideas.
Thanks everyone for all your support, and I look forward to rejoining you again soon!

Hey Carmen!
Hey the holiday season is here, take that break! I think doing video bits is a great idea! You should do more with your Youtube page, you could do a podcast one week and then a video for Youtube the other. People can respond with video messages and you’ll reach a far greater target group. Give Addicted to race… a face! So yea it’s just a suggestion. Whatever you gon do, I will support it.
Happy holidays!

Sorry to hear you’ll be taking a break–especially because I’m a lot more likely to listen to an hour of audio on my portable player than watch 5 minutes of video on my computer screen. But good luck with whatever you choose to do.

Oh dear, I’ll miss you! I appreciate the value of taking a break though, and I wish you well.
Good luck with the new ideas, including the video projects–I want to echo Sally, however, in saying that I do a lot more podcast listening (while I do menial tasks at work or home; while I drive) then video watching. It’s unlikely I’ll make the switch–videos require me to sit in in one place. I’d hate to lose the podcasts entirely.
