I have decided that it makes no sense for me not to have an e-mail list to keep folks in the loop when it comes to the new developments and exciting announcements that are coming to the site very soon. It’s about to be a very exciting time for ListenToLeon.net, and I don’t want anyone to miss the fun.
As I come to a decision on which service to use, I have another, more important thought to ponder: What type of reward or incentive should I offer you readers for signing up for the mailing list? Since you all are the people whose opinions matter the most on this issue, I’m going to directly ask you which of these two incentives would serve as a greater reward for signing up?
Access To Exclusive, Never Before Published Entries From The Vault
Kind of like Prince, I have a ton of unpublished, never-before-seen humor writing. Most of these works have remained private for the sole reason that I have yet to decide on the proper place and medium for me to present them. I can select three or four extremely funny ones, compile them into an ebook format, and offer the download link to those who become mailing list subscribers.
Offer Exclusive Access To The ListenToLeon Comedy Mixtape
I’m almost done fine-tuning my first comedy mixtape, and I’m willing to offer up a free download link to everyone who signs up for the mailing list. Think Wierd Al Yankovic meets DJ Drama, with a healthy portion of Redd Foxx mixed in with a pinch of Tenacious D, and some Lawry’s Seasoning Salt sprinkled on for good measure. You can call it “Comedic Gumbo” or you can call it “Comedic Slop” depending on whether you’re a glass half-empty or glass half-full kind of person. One thing you’ll have to call it, is entertaining!
Let me know which option sounds more appealing to you. I value all feedback, so thanks in advance!
P.S., I added a new greeting to the “Featured Videos” section. I’ll continue to do so from time to time…Just ’cause I can!

Give us both……..
co-sign laughing808
Stop being greedy! LOL
For real though, you never know. Might be an option…But if you have to choose, which would you prefer?
can i get a t-shirt to help with the shameless promotion?
So lemme get this straight: As incentive to sign up to receive e-mail notifications that your crappy blog has just been updated you’re offering us more crap? Could I have a gift certificate to Horace and Dicky’s instead, please?
@ Anonymousnupe, you can go on and eat a Horace and Dickey, you ungrateful motherf*cker!
@ CurlyQ, I’ll see what I can do at your event ;)
I just knew one of the offers was gonna be smutty…lol!! Am I on the right blog.
Um, can I just have access to your muscles instead??
lol
L
T shirt!!!! or the tape….maybe the muscles??? idk
a bottle of goose for me. thanks.
I’m with lola ;)
j/p but really….hmmm the never before seen blogs sound good. Then again so does the mixtape. Sometimes when you read something the novelty wears off, but watching it is funny everytime.
I vote mixtape…for now lol
you have a nice smile, so how about a T-shirt w/your face on it with “listentoleon;yeah I said it!” underneath? (LOL!) I’ll take one of those.
Um… when’s the ListenToLeon porn series coming out? (pun intended) I’ll wait for that… LOL
seriously, though, if only given those two choices I’d take the mixtape… sexy Leon voice over words on a page anyday ;)
AND I’m loving the comments- you have the funniest readers ever!
Leon…that was unfair, how could you not give us both. At least give both to first set of people.
well leon i see the way the sizes run in your shirts and i’ll take the tape but you forgot you do have big people that listens to leon
Shoot, I wanna see the porn version of your greeting – no joke! You are one sexy hunk a chunk!
comedy mix tape works.
I don’t ask for much. Hell, I’ll settle for a reenactment of your ‘Dame Kwame’ photo and subsequent captions.
