If you’ve got a great podcast idea, but are looking to be part of a network (and have a budget to produce it), Gimlet Creative and Squarespace’s Casting Call contest might just be the thing for you.

They’re having an open call for submissions for podcast ideas until May 21st.

If you enter, the following might happen:

Our panel of judges will join host Jonathan Goldstein to select three applicants to fly to New York and produce their pilots. At the end of the journey, one talented hopeful will be awarded a mini-series produced by Gimlet and maybe even a Squarespace sponsorship of their own—because is a podcast even a podcast without one?

The John Malkovich Squarespace Ad Is Our Favorite Super Bowl Commercial So Far

A good amount of Super Bowl commercials have already been released online before the actual Super Bowl broadcast. 

Amongst those, there are plenty of subtle and (not so subtle) socio-political messages, broadly comedic, technologically impressive, and heartwarming ads.

For our money, the funniest one in that bunch before the telecast is this pair of John Malkovich-Squarespace ads that takes advantage of having the one and only John Malkovich in an ad. 

Hopefully, we’ll get to find more laugh-worthy ads later today.

Watch the rest of those Super Bowl commercials here.
