     Australian Bronycast

    Just reviewing more episodes and having fun along with more news for Australian Brony's with iTunes updating to have 10 Episodes up by the end of next week.

    We need a banner, background and Logo. Cause i am going to be asking Hasbro Australia next week to Sponsor us if we can get a Sponsorship with Hasbro Australia then we are going to be happy cause it would mean upgrading to a better deal on Livestream if we can get views up. I am looking at iTunes to put the show up as a Podcast too so that those that miss the show can catch it on iTunes and enjoy the Australian view on how we do a Livestream Show and such.

    Fallout Equestria Radio Drama

    Alright, we were talking about running the Fallout: Equestria radio drama's promos on the nightly roundups; I cheesily suggested "Fallout Fridays", and it stuck with the team, so now we're releasing a promo every week at midnight EST on Friday.  So, without further ado, here's the radio drama's first promo for "Fallout Friday":

    Successful Meetups 

    -------------------------------------------------------------- 
     Las Vegas

    The day started off when some of us arrived early at Battle Blast Laser Tag. We spent about an hour in the lobby goofing off and playing various arcade games as all the members eventually arrived. Afterwards, we played 2 games of Laser Tag which was very enjoyable as well as exhausting which left most of us hungry. Like most Brony meetups, we made an impulsive decision to visit Cici's Pizza and eat to our hearts content. Which at that point many of the us went home and the meetup was concluded.

     Mexico


    Place: Monterrey, Nuevo León, México.
    Date: June 16th

    Last saturday we had our 3rd Bronies MTY meeting, this time at a different place but we had a great time nonetheless. We were very excited because we had new people joining us! Also there was the traditional raffle, cupcakes and snacks, and we had the chance to watch Lesson Zero and talk about the activities we will have in upcoming Animex (local convention).

    Album of the meeting: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.378043185596539.88783.100396220027905&type=3

     Pittsburgh State University

    Do you live in Pittsburg, Kansas or the surrounding area? Do you go to Pittsburg State University? Do you like My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic? If not, I’m not sure what you’re doing on Equestria Daily but if you do then you’re in luck! As you may aware there is a distinct lack of ponies on campus at the moment but YOU can make this a thing of the past. How you ask? Simply join me in forming Campus Bronies.
    The reason for this post is to see how many people would be interested in creating an official brony club on campus.  If there is enough interest we can start filling out the paperwork immediately so that we can have a strong presence on campus at the beginning of the semester. It should be noted that people not attending PSU can still participate in the group and are more than welcome to do so.
    I’m sure you’re wondering what the club will do, well that’s up to you. We could decorate the campus in ponies, have showings, and even do some charity work. Again, that’s totally up to you. This post is simply to get the ball rolling so we can make PSU at least 20% cooler next year!
