The Cat Box

Here it is, the pilot episode of The Litterbox, hosted by Area51Drone and Falkie, The Guy from Pittsburgh.     Sorry for the audio problems in advance - it's our first shot and happened kind of spontaneously.  Hopefully we'll have the audio issues worked out for the next episode.

First link has expired.
Intro too long.
Never start with the weather.
Falkie is louder than area51drone at first.
It must be vaguely interesting because I'm still listening.

Thanks for listening.  I agree with the audio issue.  I think I have some of them solved (levels, talking correctly into the mic consistently) but there is an underlying hum I still need to work out.   Like I said, it was a pilot episode, thrown together with absolutely zero prep.  People were asking for it, so we posted it.   Hopefully it was still somewhat entertaining and we'll try to get better with each show.

For now, here's a better way to listen to the show:

MV, can you change the links above to this link please?

Needs to be much more conversational and less lobbing question after question at Falkie.

It wasn't good, but I'll try again with it the next time.

I'm not a professional, Falkie is. I think that's pretty clear if you listen.  He needs to do most of the talking.

Well, I guess it can't get any worse, or can it?

Meant to be constructive criticism.

I listen to a lot of podcasts. Never have listened to one where the co-hosts appear to actively dislike one another. There was a lot of sniping back and forth.

area51drone

I will take anything anyone says about it to heart and I appreciate the comments - critical and constructive, or just plain critical.  Everything is useful.  Seriously, thanks for listening.

Ok, I listened to the first half hour. I stopped listening because when I cannot believe a story or the person telling it I'm out. It reminds me of one night when Rollye James had on this guy Walter. He predicted a major event that never happened. And he also told this insane story about how the FBI showed up at his house and he wrestled the guy to the ground grabbing his gun. It immediately reminded me of the gun story on your show. I'm not saying the story isn't true, I'm saying the person telling it needs to be much more convincing in order for me to buy it.


Regarding Walter, she had him back on after it didn't happen and cut him loose ten minutes in. That I admire. Art used to do that too, call people on their BS.

You'll get me to listen to damned near anything if it is believable. Hence, why I don't listen to George Noory.

As far as audio and etc, it's fine. I don't mind a homemade sound. I think a second voice is always challenging hence why I do my stuff solo.

Just my two cents, but really I would say continue to do it if you love doing it. But my BS meter was off the charts. Then again, America loves reality shows so, to quote a friend of mine, don't go by me.

New show is up.  In this episode, we discuss Falkie's New Years video, Bellgab feuds, crazy cat people, cripple fights, Falkie's "pits", Haagen-Dazs, monkeys pooping coffee beans, self driving cars and so much more.   Audio still sucks.  Enjoy.

MV, if and when you ever see this, please do me a favor and change the title of the thread to "The Cat Box" if you will..  Also, I need the link & pic changed in the first post to this new one if you have time for that too.  Or I can just make a new thread and you can lock this.  Up to you. Sorry for the trouble.

Ripley's Believe it or Not was a popular show.   Falkie has a LOT of stories.  I don't know what ones are true.  He claims they all are.  Either way, they can be entertaining.

Thanks for not listening!  Actually, I don't think this podcast is for everyone.  If you have doubts, I strongly encourage people NOT to listen.   

Guys - if you have any intentions to actually enjoy the subject matter,  DO NOT listen in front of women.  After the second show, my wife said "if the people on bellgab hate you now, they are REALLY going to hate you once you post this."   But she is very cool and finds it humorous at the same time.

I would suggest most women stay as far away from this podcast as they can.  The average chick is not going to like it one bit.

Yeah, but then the average 'chick' won't like you one bit will she? It sort of balances out. That in mind; don't piss your 'wife' off too much, cos you'll be trawling around in an empty sea.

My favorite thing about you Pud, is that you can't ignore this subject.

I'm not addressing the subject though. But it's kind of you to have a favourite thing.  ;D

George the 'Star' of the show was shut down for the second week, because he wanted to talk about a subject that doesn't appeal to 'you'.... Football, you claim none of your listeners watch football. I not only watch football but have made money betting on games using George's Youtube game picks.

I used to have season tickets to the Seahawks.   I'm not anti-football, I just don't want to talk about it.  But fine, we'll give the audience what it wants.   If it comes up again, we'll explore it and see where it goes.

Call it "The Sausage Fest Podcast" then, and you won't have to worry about women listening to it.

I have Packer season tickets... Gave them away for today's playoff game.
I think Green Bay will get creamed by the Seahawks next Sunday.

You didn't have to be so reasonable about it. Now I have to give it a listen  FUCK!

Like Football is only topic that George brought up... The other topics you brought up.
Also this is the second week that George said he hadn't prepared anything to talk about.
What's that about? I thought George wanted to be a podcast superstar.


It's look'iin like George is all talk but no action.... And the 'Drome' is the brains behind this operation.

Just for the record I am a woman and I enjoy the gabcast, and it is vulgar as hell :). It isn't the subject matter that is offensive, it's just, I'll say it, I don't get the Falkie thing. I am not hating on him, I just don't get it.

I'm not offended, you're certainly welcome to your opinion.  There are lots of people who don't get Falkie.  At times, I don't get him either.   As I said, ours is a niche podcast.  If we can carve out a little section of the internet for ourselves, great!  It would be a lot of fun to have a regular audience.

I might try episode 2. I wish you all the best of luck. Anyone willing to put themselves out there deserves that.

I'm a big fan of smart ass, sarcasm, and smarm.  And, drone, sometimes I appreciate that you're all three.  But a lot of the time I think you are just plain mean.  Not to suggest that you change.  You are what you are. 
I only made it about halfway through the first episode.  And, you're right - I really have no desire to listen to any more.  If that makes me an "average chick" I guess that's what I am. 
Good Luck and all that, but.... :-\
