It’s been a good run. 282 episodes of self aggrandizing pattings of our own backs. I’m just as surprised as you are. I just bought a brand new set of headphones. I had to go with the lower cost SkullCandy HESH style. I wanted the new Dr Dre Beats headphones, but our sales staff refuses to sell our show to advertisers, and thus, I do not have the 350 bucks required to pay for Dr Dre’s fantastic sounding headphones.
This all kind of sucks. I just invested some money in more ram, a few more hard drives, and updated software. I walk into the studios and BAM! Geoff hits me with the announcement that podcasting is dead. Not our show, just the whole “industry” and “genre” and whatever of podcasting. All of it.
I blame the PC movement. Not the Mac vs PC crap, the Politically Correct pansification of America. 5th place trophies, straight B honour roll, and the “make every child feel good” kind of PC’ism.
Add in the YouTubers of the world who have absolutely nothing good to say about anything, ever, and you have angry, school shooting, starry-eyed, uber-optimistic kids who do not know their own limitations.
Poor Timmy just cannot add. Shh, don’t tell him, he may cry.
Well, you know what Timmy, you suck at math. You also suck at photoshop. Stop it. Close MS Paint, shut down your computer, and walk away. There is something you might be good at, but this ain’t it.
Singing badly should not make you famous. So stop trying to sing She Bang. It’s a shitty song regardless of who is singing.
