Hello, friends! It’s me, your pal, Count Vacula!

I’m really happy because today, I get to share a brand-new No Filter with Count Vacula! -- with you! Meeting all kinds of different people is one of my favorite things to do, and on No Filter, you can meet them too. How cool is that?!

This week, you’ll meet my new friend Jad Abumrad! We have a lot in common—like, we both make podcasts, although . . . my podcast doesn’t have a Peabody Award, and Jad’s podcasts Radiolab and Dolly Parton’s America do . . . But we both like synthesizers! And we like imitating the sounds of synthesizers! And we like comparing different kinds of synthesizers! We like other things too, though, not just synthesizers.

But synthesizers are really cool!

Jad and I also talked about daydreaming, and making cardboard creations, and how to stop an argument from happening by being kind instead of angry. Jad was so awesome!

If there’s someone you think people would like to meet on No Filter with Count Vacula!, let me know at vacula@imagineneighborhood.org! I really like to read your letters, and see your drawings, and learn about new people!

I’ll be back soon with another No Filter, and in the meantime, I’ll be seeing you in The Imagine Neighborhood™!

Love,

Vac

PS: Does anybody know where I put my synthesizer?
