Sean Astin's Kickstarter campaign a resounding success!

Sean Astin's Kickstarter campaign to launch a second season of his political podcast "Vox Populi: The Voice of the Occasionally Interested People" was a resounding success, raising 220% of the initial funding goal of $30,000, and surpassing both stretch goals of $50,000 and $60,000. The final tally after the 30-day campaign was $66,104.

The money raised will be used to fund a second season of Vox Populi, including hiring a part-time staff including a producer, booker, social media expert and graphic artist, and to develop a mobile app for easier access to the show and its information.

With three hours to go, $62,662 had been pledged!

The increase in pledges the last few days was exponential!
