In this hour, we recap our Cure for the Run with in-studio guest Greg Rollett from Rock for Hunger.

We all reminisce about the best parts of the Run and how it went. We presented Greg  with a check for the monies raise, over $3300.00! I hope that they are able to put it to good use and we look forward to working with them in the future!

Speaking of the future, Rock for Hunger has their big Fest in October, plan on joining us there!

It’s been a while since I’ve picked on Ross for notes, but since this episode resolves around Georgia, SoundGuy, and Wes Heath, I’ll take some time to digress.

So I open up the notes and from Ross it says “Jen, 30 mins in, I have no chair and just found a pen, sorry. Here’s what I remember”. So in the 5 minutes between episode 368 and 369 you lost a pen and then it took you 30 minutes to find one? And, on top of it all, you broke my priceless souvenir that was handmade by some poor Charlestonian??? You!

Nah, I’m not that mad actually. You helped me out too much for the run so your Karma is like way through the roof.

So the reason Ross didn’t have a chair (and therefore, obviously, couldn’t find a pen), was because listeners Soundguy and Wes Heath joined the guys in studio. Soundguy came down for the Cure for the Run. He should have gotten the “I came the farthest” award, if we had one. During the preparation for the run, Soundguy said he had a great musician that could play if we wanted. Well, we wanted and needed and boy am I glad! During this episode you will hear Wes play. You can check out some of his old stuff on his myspace. He promises another is coming soon and we’ll review it on ComaSow ASAP.

So the boys, all 6 of them, talked about Georgia vs Florida (the states, not the teams), restaurants, and liquor. Not to mention, great music.

Hi all, it’s Jen. I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank all of you who supported our Cure fo no wait, I promised I’d drop the topic until Friday’s live show. So episode 368!

So in the next couple weeks, one of my jobs is on vacation so I find myself with some extra time possibly. In my head, I already have a list of things around the house I want to do to catch up on things. Get the rooms cleaned up and organized, start cleaning out The Martini Room to make the move to Studio G easier, go swimming… but I have to admit it helps when I have someone else here with me (mom!) to get me all pumped. Otherwise the swimming wins out.

After I had Rowan, I found myself looking for non-court room drama television. I searched around the home improvement channels and stumbled about and saw my girl, Niecy Nash from Reno 911 with a big flower in her hair. I thought maybe they were doing something to her home but lo and behold she was the host of a show! Clean House is all about getting stuff out of a couple rooms, selling it, and then using that money to renovate. I loved it and watched it every day.

I have to admit, I was a little surprised when I heard the guys talking about it in this episode. Who knew they watched such girly shows! Oh, wait… OK, so I wasn’t that surprised.

They also talked about neighbor’s garage sales. Do you go buy your neighbor’s stuff? We had neighbors that, no joke, had a garage sale every weekend for at least 2 months. I finally went over and bought a stop light for Geoff and a DVD for me. Thought it was the neighborly thing to do. But, having hosted a few garage sales myself, sometimes you put crap out there and I’d hate to see my friends buy crap.

Then the guys went onto a little more manly topic, comics. Oh wait, this is not those kind of comics like Gary and Felix talk about on their shows. This is more like the strips in the paper. Eh, still manlier. Have you seen the Garfield minus Garfield comics on the interwebs? Check it out if not, they are pretty damn funny… Crap, found myself looking at them! Back to the task at hand.

So speaking of comics, Geoff and Mickey are pretty big Calvin & Hobbes fans, both of them owning the huge collection book that can break a toe or hold down your roof during a hurricane. But what is up with the Calvin pissing decals on trucks. Sure, they’ve been around for a while, but where did they start and why do people still have them? When did Calvin go around pissing on things?

Moving into a more manly topic, mainly the Maawwoooawwn segment (oh, I see what they’re doing here, start off fem and move on up), Geoff shook hands with a black man and together they helped a woman in distress. I sat in the car and ate my Steak n Shake.

I’m going to have to go back and listen to the episode myself as I don’t recall what the other guy/man/dudes did this week. Check it out!

And while I’m at it, join me live tonight for ComaSow! (assuming you are reading this on the day it is posted). Hey, it’s a perk of writing the blog, right?
