326

In this, their middle hour, the guys discussed food (hey, they had a guest 3rd hour, had to bump it up), manly things… and more food.

Geoff’s been having to go out of town a lot for his work, which really makes us relish the time we have together. Last week, we went out for a nice evening of sushi. The place we went to normally has tons of people in it, but I guess in this economy delicious raw fish is the first thing to go. The good side of that meant an empty restaurant where Rowan could babble to her heart’s content. Afterward, we enjoyed a nice cup of coffee while listening to some guy be manly leaving his Cobra running the whole time. What of that? Maybe he was getting a little something something? Either that or he liked to watch people drink coffee under an old bank drive thru while big and tall men enter the one store for them left in town.

You know what though? It was a great night. It used to be that a great night meant going out downtown all dolled up, finding some great music and drink specials, and crashing at home until noon the next day. With work and SomaCow Media and Rowan, I’ve come to appreciate that time together, away from the TV and computer and bills, as simple as it might seem.

Oh crap, this is the SomaCow blog, not the Jen blog so back to the show.

Oh to be manly. J went to Red Lobster and refused  the most expensive thing on the menu that they accidentally brought him, in lieu of what he wanted. In return, they got all kinds of free stuff! I guess that’s pretty manly. If not, he also made some martinis which is always a great back up. Mickey taught his sister how to fly. Geoff didn’t listen to a woman. I’m sure that woman was not me, what?

Listener Glenn actually recorded his manly thing of the week! The guys put out the challenge to everyone to do that and post it in reply to Glenn’s found here.

One thing they did listen to me about was popcorn. Yeah, I know a way to get myself and Rowan in the studio now and then. On twitter, I’m following Kernel Encore, a popcorn place that is Ben Hur! I won their weekly twitter drawing and they sent me a 12-pack of sample bags (which could feed a couple people each) for us all to share. I let the guys try to figure out what I gave them, and they were pretty good at it. The guava one surprised me, I thought it would be funky but it was very tasty. I also kind of liked the beer popcorn. J took home about 3 bags of it so he’ll have to let us know Friday at the live recording how those were.

SomaCow Media is proud to present SomaCow brought to you by Geoff’s desk calendar which is pwning him!

In this hour, the guys talked about living on a farm, education, and existentialism? Oh, only briefly…

Felix from Prime Time Geek stuck around this hour to chat more with the SC boys. Geoff started out the hour talking about the origin of “kick this pig” and his life growing up on a farm. At this time, all of the live viewers in Ustream could see Felix anxiously looking for the quickest exit out of The Martini Room!

Mickey shared his life coaching views on getting and using a desk calendar (and not letting it use you…ahem)

Felix then noticed that Geoff had a copy of Albert Camus’ The Stranger in the studio. Geoff “blamed” it on me and the fact that it’s a Cure song. Of course it is much more than that…Yes, Killing An Arab (The Cure) was based on this book but it’s also a great book on its own! Felix agreed. Just trying to open some minds, that’s all.

Fashion was on their minds, too, it seems. Ross thought it was appropriate to wear pajama bottoms to the show. Now I can’t blame him, I’d say 90% of the time that the show is going on, I’m in pajama bottoms but this sparked a discussion about dress code for SomaCow (at least for the guys). Geoff killed the topic by mentioning the holocaust.

And in the rest of strange news from this episode, my husband, Geoff, the sports hater (as opposed to me, the wife who loves most sports), exclaimed, “The Gators may well be the second coming of Jesus”. God I love that man.
