The VinecastThe Unofficial Newsvine Podcast

June 15th (this coming Monday) at 8pm EST we will be recording episode 24 of the Vinecast.

This week we will be joined by Tyler, who will be answering questions sent into us at mailbag@thevinecast.com, as well as no doubt discussing (or denying, depending on how drunk he got) what happened at Vinemeet Chicago, which started yesterday.

We will be also be getting a visit from Ryan Stolte-Sawa and the other members of Flotation Walls, who’s debut album, Nature was just released.

As usual, we are up for suggestions of things to discuss, Viners to try to get on the show, and any other feedback you might have, which can all go to mailbag@thevinecast.com(along with any questions for Tyler, please please please send in your questions!).

In other Vinecast news, the Vinecast now has it’s own twitter account for news, updates, ranting, etc, and we just scored our first official sponsor, which I’ll be talking about on the show this week (and weeks to come if all goes well!).

Drop by the new chat page at 8pm EST on Monday the 15th if you want to listen and chat with us live, and of course, there’s also the less interactive podcast version that will go up alongside the show notes on Tuesday morning.

Comments on this post should be made here on Newsvine.
