CrankCasting was developed in Pittsburgh, PA on August 6th 2005. One day, *BlanK* and Ed
were just sitting around listening to podcasts. We saw something called "BeerCasting" and though "Oh, this would be
cool. Maybe it's guys getting drunk." It turned out to be the dumbest we've ever heard. Then we were like, "Damn that was
retarded. Someone should come up with as Crank Call Podcast or something." Thus, CrankCasting was born. It only took
us one weekend to get the first CrankCast and website up. Even though this website freaking sucks right now, it'll get
better as we find someone to do a template for us.
