Yes, but my people know the languages in use at the time, which is deal-breaker for almost everyone else.

Seems like a good choice. Other than a Zoroastrian.

A Man of Science would be tempted to explain the impossible with some kind of technical wording before ever admitting the impossible, right?

Believe me, they'd pay less if they could. $250 per shift is SAG-AFTRA base rate for on-air work.

Seems like the best thing to do is become a nurse and then radio host as a hobby.

We have A&W Vanilla Soda in these parts.

How is the show tonight? 

I tried turning the show on three times tonight and each time a commercial was on so turned the radio back off.
Didn't catch any of the show.

American Hot Wax  1978
This movie did not have a DVD or VHS release.

My thinking is be under way a full hour before grey goo. Plus if you think About it those last hours are not heard by many anyway, we will be done at 12AM PT while the other is not done till 5AM EST.

Will it be rebroadcast after the show finishes like Coast to Coast is?

I don't suppose anyone noticed that, just now, hell froze over?

Yes, prepare to repel boarders from The Crimson Permanent Assurance!

To make this work I will need the help of all of you to help stamp out the Pirates.

I usually try not to speak for others, but I think it would be safe to say that we have your back Art.

For Art!

A tad bit obscure?

Or a small bit of yeti's fur

Bones too?  I was still waiting for the next TOS movie starring the original cast.

He died 16 years ago.

Jorch has proposed a show with surveillance videos of ordinary people, taken from their Smart TVs. (1:12 am PST)
That's creepy.

JC sounds different.

Ok, I unmuted the show and now George and the guest are talking as if Zombies are real...Zombies can't climb, their blood won't circulate in the Rocky Mountains.
It's like a conversation between kids talking about if Superman was real.

Jorch: If Zombie Superman and Batman were in a fight, who would win?

How many water balloons does it take to stop a .44 Magnum bullet?

Long ago I got a kick out of Google's little logo variations.  Over the years, as they've become more frequent, more ornate, animated, added sound, become "doodles" ... I have come to loathe them.

To me it's a classic example of something simple and pleasant, which over time has become over-engineered and terrible (sadly imho this was the same trajectory gmail took which I used to love and now cannot stand).

Can they not just have a little setting to toggle them on/off?  Is it really that important to them that I know if it's friggin Arbor Day?

Doodle + Pandering = Doopandering? Pandoodleling?

Once again, this month's downloads exceeded last month's by thousands. Thank you all.

Well done. Two of those downloads were me (had to listen to the second half of a show at work).

The talk show equivalent of taking a dump on your radio.

I pressed mute an hour ago and forgot to unmute it.

Is that what you think? Just curious.

Yes. I do hope he comes back though.

Quote from: DesertFox on February 28, 2015, 01:05:04 AM
Not talking about those who had some doubts along the way---but the ones who were loud, sure and mocking.  Don't remember if you were one of those.  If you were--good on you for manning up.

When Art said he wouldn't come back because of his music fees I said he had the moxie of a wet paper towel.

Quote from: DesertFox on February 28, 2015, 12:55:03 AM
Hmmmm...where are the people who were on here who shouted at the top of their lungs that Art was faking about coming back after the NC and was playing us for fools?  They were so smug about it.

I wonder.

I'm one of those. Still here.

My streaming music service has removed most of the albums of my favorite German, New Age, Pan flute playing composer.

If it is Cumulus, then Art would be replacing The Dennis Miller show. Is that show popular?

Quote from: zeebo on February 27, 2015, 03:01:11 PM
For some time I've been leisurely making my way through various sci-fi/fantasy lists.  One series which pops up alot is Gene Wolfe's Book of the New Sun. 

I wouldn't say it totally kicked my butt, it was more like a half-kick.  I could have ground through it if I really wanted to, but I found it too dreary and disorienting and got tired of all the archaic language.  He does have some nice prose in there but alot of it is over-descriptive and meandering for my tastes.  Moving on.

I didn't like that one either. I liked Eyes of the Overworld much better.

Evidently simply buying a legal copy (CD, Mp3, etc.) of a song does not give you the right to rebroadcast it.

From BMI:  http://www.bmi.com/licensing

I think you can legally upload to your Radionomy library if you own a CD.
Your Radionomy library gives you the rights to rebroadcast over Radionomy.

No one kills a show like this bitch; I can even sit through Jorch from time to time for the pure unintended comic genius of it all, but this....is beyond suck...

I haven't heard the words 'Emmy' or 'Strange Harvest' on this show.

We need Linda Moulton Howe to interview pate.

Youngevity. The vitamin supplement we all need.

Quote from: SredniVashtar on February 26, 2015, 12:27:44 PM

If we stay in the island of Ireland, then I would recommend 'At Swim-Two-Birds' by Flann o'Brien. It is impossible to describe really,  but worth seeking out if you are looking for something adventurous.

Also, 'The Master and Margarita' by Mikhail Bulgakov. All about the devil turning up in modern-day Moscow, while telling the story of Pontius Pilate at the same time. Can't recommend this one highly enough.

Thanks for the recs. I think other people here (?) have recommended 'At Swim-Two-Birds' so I will try and get to it this year.
I did read 'The Master and Margarita' and thought it was very interesting.

Ugh...try reading the headache-inducing legalese in the user agreements of just two of these web/podcasting hosts. It's enough to scare anyone off.  I hope Art can find a way to do this as a fully independent broadcaster.

Radionomy

Seems like Radionomy lets you upload up to 1000 songs, as long as you own the CDs.
