Scriptnotes: The Outros

September 13, 2013 Follow Up

Beginning with episode 98, we asked Scriptnotes listeners to send us their take on the Scriptnotes theme for us to use as an outro. Here are the ones we’ve used so far.

If you’d like to submit one of your own, send a link to ask@johnaugust.com. (Soundcloud is terrific if you use it.)
