    listenin now, i've gotten to Joan Hunt's brilliant conversation with yourself regarding The Blues and The Grammy's and the like. i'm really really enjoyin it.

    oh, one thing, course, since who am i not to nit-pick, i didn't actually write about the oscars, as it says in the post up yonder, but about a flick that was nominated in such.

    And how cool that i'm a Foreign Correspondant!! hah brilliant

    I just saw this, will download shortly - but I did notice that you might have intended to put in a link in your description about my segment?
    (24 link) ?

    anyway..thanks for all your hard work Sir DJ.

    the conversation with DJ and EB is tremendous, and sadly, probably incredibly accurate with regards the apathy greeting certain stories and falsehoods.

    the opening banter with EO was excellent also, and the sports banter with Suss, although i didn't have a notion what was bein yacked about. it seemed to me to be exactly what folks who DO know about these manly things would be wanting. this is a fantastic opening gambit.

    Dammit and to hell! All a fella does is work until his eyeballs sweat and the pickers of nit come out to make note of my 212 fuckups and the like.

    Thanks, guys. Duke, my apologies. I skimmed the quick bit of your story planning to read it fully when I had the chance and took dramatic liberty. I am going to correct this directly.

    Sir Mary, I wrote and re-wrote this post 314 times. There was actually a link there at one time. There will be again.

    Thanks DJR for so ably guiding the ship into port, and to our engaging cast of orators for orating with such appealing orotundity! I can make out visions of podcastular nirvana through the mist! Onward!

    hah DJ, you got licence for to fling as many nit's into the ether as you wish, you're efforts on this have resulted in an excellent show.

    listenin to you and Mary now - I'D vote for Simon, no doubt about that.

    And using Elliot as an intro for Mary - that was just inspired.

    Ever onward indeed, EO. Thanks for playing along.

    Sir Mary, the link was always there I just need to learn to spell HREF.

    The Duke, I have corrected my oversight and plan to give your fine piece a proper reading this very evening.

    Duke, I am glad you are enjoying it. I thought the Elliott clip was the only way to segue into Sir Mary's appearance. The only thing that bummed me out is my favorite part of the song is not within 30 seconds of a singing of the words "pretty Mary K" so I had to use this clip instead or it just wouldn't have worked.

    Saleski will likely refuse to listen on general principle now.

    Isn't BC Radio registered with iTunes yet in their podcast directory?

  • 12 - Mary K. Williams

    Mar 06, 2006 at 7:00 pm

    Listening now, its so cool! Captain EO with his Octopus arms and nubile slaves. hehe.

    Fantastical work, DJR, anyone with any podcasting experience knows full well how much work and bloodsweat it takes to pull something like this off!!

    Aaman -- We can use all the help we can get in promoting this lil sucker who could and will kick galactical ass forthwith !

    Aaman, that is something I intend to do this very day. I had to wait until the RSS file was composed and until Phillip could undo what I did to it. Now it works. We can thank Phillip for that.

    I plan to register us with iTunes so people can search on it there, too.

    If you know of any other podcast directories we should register with please suggest them here.

    Perhaps his desire to tease the crap out of me will override any hangups about Elliot Smith.

    This relaunch is reason enough to replace the bloody battery on my iPod which has sat useful for several months now.

    I got the wife a nano for her birthday last December it and I spend far too much time scheming for to "liberate" it for my own liberation-radio devices.

    Awesome and Excellent, DJ. Thanks for the hours and hours of sweat and tears you put into this.

    I had no idea you could boo in several different voices at once. Hopefully my bannination lifts in time for next week.

    Overall, good, spicy meat from The Bosses Eric, Joan, Mary, Diamond Duke Mondo (I won't call you that all the time), and most notably, Josh the Hath-Blood Prince (I may call you this from now on).

    Thanks Duke.

    I heard part of yours, so I want to finish that, and still looking forward to hearing Joan, EB, and Matt.
    got tied up watching 24 two hours of it tonight. I still have to rewind the tape now, I didn't take any notes at all. Got nothing in my head.

    Actually still in shock about the last 5 minutes.
