UnBoomed: Rocketboom breaks, and it's all Andy's fault

andy-x-amanda.jpgEscalating his battle with exiting host Amanda Congdon, Rocketboom producer Andy Baron blogged that he does nearly all the work on the popular video blog. "I have Produced every single episode," he says. "I have found/picked over 90% of all of the stories that we have ever used." He even takes credit for Amanda's frantic chair spins and head bobs that freaked out so many viewers.

So why does switching to a new host break his stride?

As of 3:15 PM Pacific, Andy and crew still haven't posted their daily show. The alert message just changed from this:

please-stand-by.jpg

to this:

update-its-tomorrow.jpg

to this:

oh-wait-wrong.jpg

Andy, if you do all the work anyway, just host the show yourself!
