SomaCow

SomaCow Media is proud to present SomaCow, brought to you in this hour by Mariano, and her stiletto pen. Wait, no one uses pen anymore. Her stiletto Word Application Software, or Java Open Office Tool, or Proprietary Paper Press, or whatever.

SomaCow is happily burping along into our third year of podcasting, and SuperProducer-On-Standby Jen was kind enough to run out and get us a signed autograph of our favorite Homicide Reporter. Thanks again, it will hang in a place of honor in the new studio.

Speaking of the new studio, I got over my contractor issues and settled on an electrician I like, so the build is moving along swimmingly. Got a new studio door installed today, new switches, outlets, and beefed up a wall with some cross braces. Pics, as always, can be seen on our forums.

Mickey took his son to see Papa Roach, Slipvein, Third Eye Melanoma, Pork Abuse, Thruster Joe and the Stankfish, Mortified, Horrified, and Disturbed  at the Amway Arena this week. His kid is six foot three, and saved Mickey’s life three or four times in the “pits”, from what I hear. Mickey had a good time, and, retrospectively, I really wish more Dads were okay with taking their kid to see live music. Mickey’s kid rounded up the night by confessing to Mickey about something. SOMETHING! (Dramatic Music)

We were blessed with a call (gasp!) from a listener (gasp!) who sang J Happy Birthday all seductive-like. I think J was touched, because his breathing on mic increased three or four decibels during the performance. He may have just been reaching  for his nitrogen pills.
All in all, a good hour, with some Manly Topics, some snarky words, and Mickey’s Life Coaching at or near the :40. Listener, it’s just what we do.

SomaCow Media is proud to present SomaCow, brought to you in this hour by Willoughby Mariano, our one-stop shop for all information related to Orlando Homicide.

In this hour, we received mad fat loot from Iceman2469, a first person review of the new Yankee Stadium from ChrisP of Chrispforpresident.com, and a call in special analysis of the recent shooting, courtesy of Madame Mariano herself. JAMPACKED, this hour is, with content that isn’t about my anger, Mickey’s hometown, J’s nose, Ross’s Living Dead Aunt, and bacon! Well, some of the episode is about bacon, but that’s the price of doing business with us.

We are grateful to Iceman, for his donations and gifts and debt-cosolidating creepy Obamappet. They will be treasured for years, even if he did put Obama in “an uncomfortable place” prior to shipment.

SomaCow Media is proud to present SomaCow brought to you by the Orlando Sentinel homicide section.

Our middle hour this week included various newspaper discussions, magazine discussions, and manly man discussions.

The guys, and all of us live listeners (and now you), were graced this hour by a call-in from Willoughby Mariano from the Orlando Sentinel. Willoughby reports on homicides in the Orlando area. She takes a more personalized approach though, talking to families, friends, really finding out what happened. On top of all that, she turned what we thought was going to be an off-color question by J into an off-color answer! She’s a cool chick. Her blog is here, and you can follow her on twitter, too! Read, and comment on, her blog, it’s at least helping keep newspapers alive, even if online.

Mickey is tired of Maxim, which keeps coming to his door even after the subscription ran out. But they do have celebrity interviews like with Clive Owens, right? And then there’s Monica Potter who, according to J, looks incredibly hot in one picture and fugly in the next (been a while since you’ve heard that word huh?). Geoff also points to Izzie Stevens from Grey’s Anatomy for being the same. What celebrity do you find hot yet not?

And the guys end up talking about their manly man moments this week an hour early. I guess Geoff just couldn’t wait to tell everyone how he moved out the old nasty funk-filled fridge to the curb AND beat the doors off of it! The other guys…well, J had a dogfight…that’s not bad. Mickey licked keys and Ross was beaten up by a con (have you seen his beard?). Hmmm, looks like these guys might need to do some man searching before Friday!

Mickey’s life coaching, as always, words to live by. Never give up.

Enjoy the episode. I know I did. I’m off to help my daughter with her new fascination of getting me to put her up on the couch and then slide head first back off of it. Fun times!

OOH! Speaking of fun times, we have a new forum! Join up if you haven’t already so I can give you your listener leaderboard point.
