Ski Accidents

Featuring more bootleg music (and seeing my previous episode it’s a habit oops) being enjoyed a lot lately because we’re gonna go see the band soon, whoot, and explaining I had to recover the file system so as to continue providing the audio content that rather is supposed to drive the project, ouch, and then into Obama’s initial statements addressing Parliament, along with thoughts about Acts 5 and speaking at my church, and God, and recording this ep, and my new BlackBerry, along with Imagine and Facebook, and U2 setlists, then Audacity fun (which BTW is irrelevant, 1.3.13 works fine and the task at hand is easy speedy) and getting back in the groove of producing.

Back in the Groove

[I'll call it a teaser since this isn't my normal format, mostly about just getting restarted with the publishing action 2 years later (to the day mind you)]

Teaser

The big idea of this one is to ask God to take the sting away from those haunting memories… basically He seems willing to forgive you for past sins and allow you to forgive yourself.

[More confusion for the listener but soon it will all make sense... no time for more just now.]

Remove the Sting

Wherein Rob spews idle chitchat about the weather, snow in the mountains, teaser about an episode I really need to mix and publish, some banter with The Driver; thoughts on infrastructure and the St. John’s Bridge. Also a quick mention of the Lewis & Clark Bridge and a passing glance at the Akashi-Kaikyō Bridge; and outta here.

Shout out to my buddy “Earl”. [So much for Sunday or Monday, I mixed this in the car on Tuesday... and I ended up mixing it in the car, with another driver at the wheel. And I won't even tell you about how hard it was to get the file uploaded and posted. Sigh.]

Keeping it Real

(9/7) Fixed! Bleh, I need to put more attention on my toolkit.

Another First

Wherein Rob clicks record, talks, and uploads his first anniversary show: smoking update and a story from the past, and stuff. [Insert Google Map links here to Milwaukee, Wisconsin and Strawberry Point, Iowa]

Shout out to Adam Curry and Tony Walker.

[Also I'll add that our podcast buddy Dave Slusher just hit 3 years on his show, nicely done Dave!]

First Anniversary

My thanks to the first year listeners who sent me feedback. Public commenters include (in chronological order): Neal, Leisa, Kyle, Vinny, Jim, PO8, Alina, K Marie, Josh, and Owen. Also I need to work through the email archives as there is another group of folks who didn’t leave public comments… and perhaps even one or two that heard an ep and provided feedback only in person. It’s all good.

One Year Anniversary-1

Wherein Rob starts early and begins recording while waiting for summer day camp to open so he can drop off “Fireboy” [and too bad I didn't bring the other microphone, you can barely hear the lad] and then commences to rambles on his way to the freeway; some meta-talk about podcasting and such; shares experience (and an audio clip) from the first album purchase he’s made in a long time, and the first from iTMS; PodioBooks hooking me up with Eastern Standard Tribe; an interesting point Mr. Doctrow shared with me on DRM, and misc thoughts on the end of this bad idea, and bad grooves in my brain (heh); feedback (yay!) [and darn it, I knew I was making a mistake last time to speed it up], thanks RevGum, thanks KMarie [oops and some meta talk about production]; some clips from Psych, including a new catch phrase you can work into conversation; raining in August, who would have thought?; and I’m out [end of this ep, which is about an experiment and not an experience, doh] and a final thought or two about RSS [get Juice!]; [and I got to training class 5 minutes early, good plan came together].
