Our first podcast had some good times and some long and boring times, so we decided to try again. Sure, normally we'll wait a week, but we had some really good news that just wouldn't keep.
It's still under 30 minutes, but creeping up a bit, to 28 minutes 22 seconds.

As the short durations probably make clear, the listed songs are excerpted very briefly. I created a couple of new clips from the same Church of Rhythm song, which turns out to be bumper-music gold. I've got a few remixes of the song, too, so I might come up with a few more clips.
Information about the Michaelmas was taken from Mrs. Sharp's Traditions by Sarah Ban Breathnach. Thaniel highly recommends Freakonomics by Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner.

I will eventually create some new bumper music, but with only two days since the last podcast, well, I went mostly with what I had. I still created a new intermission and closing bit.
2 - Temple Stark
Ha ha - I was just about to ask when the next one was. and when I cicked on the right-side link I got here.
So I'll listen.
3 - Mark Saleski
extra points for pronouncing my last name correctly.
bravo.
4 - Temple Stark
cicking is a specialized talent by the way, achieved only after years of monklike devotion and training
5 - Phillip Winn
Mark -- how else would it be pronounced? Gee, I didn't even think about it before. Now I just might get paranoid. Did I pronounce Victor's name correctly, I wonder? Temple, no objections to my pronunciation of your name? Too busy "cicking" to answer, I bet. :-)
How else would you pronounce Saleski, anyway? Seems obvious to me.
6 - Mark Saleski
heck, it's seems obvious to ME too! ;-)
usually, they do it with two syllables: sale-ski.
7 - bhw
I bet people say "Sales-ski" when it's "Sa-leski"
8 - bhw
Mark, I think we were typing at the same time....
9 - Phillip Winn
Sale-ski? What the heck?
People are nuts.
So was the sound quality on this one pretty bad? It's hard for me to tell.
10 - Mark Saleski
bhw, they don't say you've got word for nothin'!
11 - Mark Sahm
The sound quality of your crew was much better than the first one, Phil.
Not to nitpick (and don't quote me on the next show!), but Ban Breathnach has a funny pronounciation--- like Ban Brawn-nick, instead of Breath-knock. She used to write for my company. Funny to hear though, because I made the same mistake at first.
Nice job, man.
12 - Phillip Winn
Now that you mention it, I've heard the name "braw-nick" on the radio, but didn't connect it with what I saw when I plucked the book from Herself's hands.
I'll issue a correct next episode, but won't mention you by name, you shy guy.
Thanks!

Tripple nipples?
Is that the trilateral commission we keep on hearing about.
Quite a different conversation.
14 - Phillip Winn
I'm planning to record #3 tonight, but will be just Herself and me, as Thaniel and Emily have a "thing" on Wednesday nights.
I'll try hard to restrain Herself's potty humor. :-)
15 - Temple Stark
Oh pease don't :-)
I give you all a shout out on my Number three
16 - Temple Stark
Pease Pease pretty PLLLLLLease.
Typo hell aaaaah.
17 - Phillip Winn
I'm going to listen to your #3 tonight, probably after recording mine.
You must understand, my wife's potty humor is at least as likely to revolve around fecal matter than anything else that might be considered more fun. :-)
