4,000 downloads

Morning cabbers!

Just a quick post to say that episodes 1-3 have now been downloaded over 4,000 times. This is great news, but we’re keen to spread the 4amcab message even further, so please tell all your friends about us!

But what about episode 4? We are recording next week so another 4amcab will be motoring onto your iPod (other mp3 players are available) very soon. You have subscribed haven’t you? Good.

And don’t forget that you can write for us. We’ve slammed shut the laptop on episode 4, but we are accepting submissions for episode 5, so do send us your ideas.

Finally, if you enjoy that sort of thing, hook up with us on Twitter, Facebook and iTunes.

A good week

Here in the 4amcab bunker we’ve had a busy week writing, re-writing and honing scripts for episode 4. It’s been a great week for submissions too. We’ve had loads of ideas and scripts come in, and we’ve been tweaking away to get as many of them in as we can.

We’ve seen our 3,000th download, the top spot in the iTunes comedy ‘new and noteworthy’ section and we’re now bobbing up and down the comedy podcast chart as well.

We’ve also been featured in the Succotash podcast, so thanks to Marc at Succotash for that. Thanks to YOU for following our progress, particularly if you’ve submitted scripts to us. We can’t use everything, but you will be credited if we use your stuff, even if we’ve made changes.

If you’d like to help us out, please subscribe to the podcast in iTunes and write a review. There is a strange and magical iTunes algorithm (which only Bob at iTunes knows) and although we can’t fathom out what it is, we’re pretty sure it depends upon numbers of downloads, subscriptions and reviews. Click here to do that for us.

More news on the forthcoming episode 4 soon, and as always if you have any requests, let us know!

New and Noteworthy

Morning 4amcabbers,

We’re three episodes and 2,500 downloads into the 4amcab project and we’re now in the top 4 new and noteworthy comedy podcasts on iTunes. Here we are hanging out with Scott Mills, Radio 4 and The Weak Crave on the comedy homepage.


We could be busted back down to 20th by lunchtime, so we grabbed a picture.  As one of our new contributors (the brilliant @kerihw) would say, they can’t take it away now.

Thanks to everyone who’s subscribed, rated, reviewed, RT’d and generally supported us, we bloody love you guys more than a brand new, glossy copy of OMFG magazine (January 2013 edition out now!)

In other news, episode 4 is on the way. The script is being hammered into shape by our script editor and we are still very much open to submissions. Have a listen to episodes 1, 2 and 3, and then read our ‘write for 4amcab‘ guide and you’ll be away.

Leave us a comment letting us know what you think of the series so far, what you want to hear more/less of and we’ll do our best to make it happen.

What our listeners say about us

Brilliant! *****
Love this! Sounds like no other podcast. The actors are great and the writing is funny.

Nefarious nocturnal matters *****
I love this brilliantly produced podcast. It’s like Monkey Dust for the iPhone generation.

All clubbers must listen to this! *****
Highly recommended to those who have stayed out til all hours of the morning.

Yes we cab! *****
Splendidly produced and mixed sounds of somewhere at 4am, topped off with some cracking joke-writing. Reminiscent of Chris Morris’s Blue Jam.

Superb *****
A fabulous podcast. Brilliant performances and superbly produced. Listen and you’ll be hooked for sure.

And the lovely David Salisbury has even blogged about us.

We really hope you’ve enjoyed the first three episodes. Please take a moment to click here and write us a review. If you don’t have time to construct sentences, simply give us a star rating.  Believe it or not, the more reviews and ratings we get, the more people will find us on iTunes, it’s a funny old world.

Thank you kindly.
