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.

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.  |
