SomaCow Media is proud to present SomaCow brought to you this week by the Seminole County Cour

Due to a pending gag order, we can’t talk about Mickey’s court case. We can only hope that Ross is back with us next week to help us out… although that would mean making sure we have his chocolate replaced…Jen!!!

Instead, this week will be brought to you by Randolph LaLonde. I make the final review of his book, First Light Chronicles. Do pick it up, let him know what you think, and tell him you heard about him here! And then get ready as book #2 is on its way! And you can always join us live every Saturday from 1-4 PM Eastern where you can usually find the author himself chatting along with us. We are so honored. Thank you, Randy for your writings, company, and insight. This episode is all for you.

SomaCow Media is proud to present Somacow, brought to you this week by Madhouse Radio and Randolph Lalonde.

Here on SomaCow we often do things tongue-in-cheek. We’d like to take a moment to be a little more serious, and recognize two guys this week. First, Carlito from Madhouse Radio stopped in this episode. After listening to a clip of one of their prank calls, he spent some time with us just hanging out and talking. He’s a great guy doing Go’s work in som bunker here in Orlando, and therefore, you should give his show a listen! Let him know you heard about them on SomaCow.

And while we didn’t get to do the review this week, Randolph (we like to call him Randy (or Ralph, or Rutabega, or Rumplestiltskin)) Lalonde has been a faithful listener every Saturday from 1-4 PM at Ustream for our live show. Randy sent us some early copies of his new book, Part of The First Light Chronicles. We didn’t get to review it this week with Carlito in the studio, but we will! We caught up with him this week, though and he has a ton going on! He now has the website www.spinwardfringe.com where he can publicize his books, especially the new ones! so check out his site, and his stories!

We’re so grateful to have such great listeners that are also so talented. Share your love for us with them, ok? But make sure you tell them you heard about them here. We deserve the credit (and paycheck ;)).

Okay, back to the Hippy vs. Frat Guy War!

SomaCow Media is proud to present SomaCow, brought to you in this hour by EarthTrivia.com – Check ‘em out!

In this episode we reviewed some listener mail, discussed my love for Taco Salad at Tijuana Flats, and had in Curtis Earth for some innerviewin’ and trivianatin’!

We get a lot of listener mail, from diet advice to cash donations to cows (seriously, I love the cows, thank you to everyone that sends cows), to coffee to cds and more… But this week was a doozie, with books from Randolph LaLonde for review, dutch hats and shoes, and a special gift from our listener, Seadad, deployed somewhere in the middle east. SomaCow now proudly displays a flag that flew over his vessel in country, and we are honored beyond words. Tune in to our Ustream channel to check out the flag, and help us in sending your thoughts to the troops still stationed overseas.

Since my eyes are already watering, we might as well finish the taco salad recipe. These are the keys to happiness, and I am happy to give them to you. Head to Tijuana Flats, and opt for the taco salad chicken (blackened, if you like that sort of thing), hold the olives, keep the jalapenos (danger!) and add on some refried beans. It’s just soooooo good, people! I would also suggest making it “wet”, which is where the staff cover your dish in queso, but somehow, a salad dripping with spicy velveeta just does not FEEL healthy. It does, sorta, feel squishy.

We enjoyed a visit from a man I really respect here in Orlando, namely, Curtis Earth. If you are a fan of trivia, you cannot go wrong in attending one of his various trivia ventures, or just tuning in to his show here. We get some inside scoop on Curtis, including his sales fashion sense, why and how he got into the trivia hosting business, and we enjoy a quick 10 questions courtesy of his skilled cerebrum. Listeners are invited to participate in the questions in this hour, and we will post hour two with all the answers on July 30th.

We eschewed music in this hour, simply because it was too jam packed with good talk. Fear not, and maybe take this opportunity to visit our band page, familiarize yourselves with some of these great groups, and mail me some requests for the show!

Thanks, as always, for tuning in. See you guys on Wednesday!
