I discovered that Dennis Michael has also been doing a this day in history segment called Time Marches On. Dennis used to do CNN’s “Hollywood Minute” for 18 years, so you’ve probably heard his voice before. His segments are really well done - good production, funny and only clock in at around 1-2 min. You can check them out on his SoundCloud page here or listen on the embedded SoundCloud player below.

Latest tracks by Dennis Michael

Also, as there is no need to keep the Audio Wikinews podcasts on my SoundCloud page anymore, I went ahead and uploaded some of my other work as well as my favorite (and higest rated) This Day In History segments. You can listen to them below.

I’m kicking around the idea of reviving the Audio Wikinews as a weekly show instead of a 5 day per week series. The demands of a once per week show were to great but the possibility of going once per week does seem fesiable. What do you think? What would you like to see on the show? I’m open to any ideas.
