  • Slackers Studio Minisode 6: A Call For Bumpers

    Hey Slackers, Jack here!  

    We have a favour to ask.. You may have noticed that we have changed our show format to be a little more news focused.  This means we are desperately in need of some bumpers for our new format.  And we'd love for you, our wonderful listeners, to do our work for us! 

    We are Slackers after all....  

    If you're up for it we would love to hear bumpers for our different segments; 

    - This Week in Gaming (Or just Gaming News)

    - This Week in Movies and TV (Or Movie and TV News)

    - This Week in Tech and Space (Or Tech and Space News) 

    The shorter the bumper the better but feel free to go nuts and send anything you like to [email protected] .

    Many of you may have seen this over on Discord already... But for those that aren't on there yet we thought we'd do a proper call for submissions the old fashioned way.
