Beards and Jackets to Acquire "Late Nite JengaJam"
Philadelphia, PA/Boston, MA (04/01/2011) — The entertainment conglomerate Beards and Jackets LTD, the official name of the entertainment brand of Travis Yak, has acquired the long-running podcast "Late Nite JengaJam", hosted since 2006 by J.G. Edathil, for an undisclosed sum.
"We're excited to expand our brand's podcast offerings," Yak offered in a prepared statement, "Late Nite JengaJam has a very loyal audience that we're looking to reach out to. And we intend to, washed hands or no!"
What remains unclear is how many of the JengaJam staff are staying on for the transition. While Beards and Jackets LTD was able to confirm John Sedlack and Josh Ruble would be staying on, "This Week in Geek"'s Lauren "Oboe" Crazy has often expressed frustration at the antics of the Beards and Jackets Conglomerate, which also includes famed Cryptozoologist Richard Trueblood.
Reuters and Variety have reported that Beards and Jackets LTD is in talks to spin Jonathan "Roadblock" Serna into his own "CalienteCast" in an attempt to reach into the ever-increasing Hispanic Market.
JengaJam founder and incumbent host J.G. Edathil, currently playing the role of "Jack Edathil", has inked a 2 year contract to host a new reality podcast "The Internet's next top Jenga Block", which will document the search for an heir to his podfather throne.
"Aside from video, reality podcasting is really the future of this industry." Edathil contributed. "By combining the intimacy of audio with the compelling drama of real people in contrived situationas, we're really hoping to turn the quest for celebrity into some quality entertainment."
Late Nite JengaJam is a long running pop-culture and new media podcast that airs live every Tuesday at 10:30pm.
Beards and Jackets is an ever expanding media conglomerate now consisting of (8)bit Minutes, RT Movie Nights, TravComix, and The Beards and Jackets Podcast, and coming soon, Caliente Cast with Jon "El Annuncio Magnifico" Serna
