Unstoppable
I’ve been on a fantastic run with Dalecast, where host Steve Wheatley has featured a different Ken Turetzky track for each of the past seven shows.
In fact, I even broke out of the Dalecast comedy ghetto on the latest episode with a spin of my blues track, Why Don’t You Get A Job (Live at Mayfest), extracted from my recent performance in Fort Worth.
In order, Steve also generously featured (Jerry Lewis) Fly Me To The Moon, My Fat Ass Itches, Her Shit Don’t Stink, the rarely heard Today Was A Very Good Day, I’ll Get Old And Die and The Ballad Of Morris The Cat. Continue reading

I’m smart! Not like everybody says!

If only the entertainment world followed the example of Snark Infested Waters host Taylor Kent, I’d be well on my way toward an HBO special, a private jet with its own parking spot in front of my Park Avenue high-rise, and perhaps even a legendary speedball overdose.
Feted first with A tribute to Ken Turetzky, now as the subject of a wide-ranging, 52-minute interview, I’m basking in the glow.
And with all of this rapturous attention from Snarky, a primary figure in the Misfit Christian/sci-fi/fantasy/Dementia movement, I feel as if I’ve attained nerd-vana. Continue reading

Small world
Looks like I’m getting edged out by new blood.
At least the new guys are some of my old friends, as I shared the comedy bloc with new songs by the Volume Brothers and Tyrone Kahn (The Kahn Man) on two recent episodes of Dalecast.
For Show 241, host Steve Wheatley sandwiched (Jerry Lewis) Fly Me To The Moon between the podsafe tunes Bad JuJu and White Van Man from the Volume Brothers, produced by UK fav and my old MySpace pal Chris Wilkinson. Continue reading

Phil’s no douchebag
Big Phil made a big mistake and now he’s feeling bad about it. I’ll let him tell the story:
“Ken Turetzky and I have this back and forth going. He thinks I pause too much oftentimes during the show. And after he made this post on his blog, I purposefully paused quite a lot in between sentences and thoughts and so forth.
“To test his theory, I edited one of his songs down. It was all in good fun; it was all in jest. Well, I heard from a couple of friends of mine who are musicians, and they let me know I was being a dick. Even though it was all done in the spirit of humor, perhaps I was being a bit of a douchebag.”

Demented podcasters sound the retreat

The Mad Music Archive has seen a shakeup of late, with ill-advised podcasts removed in favor of ASCAP- and BMI-friendly streaming audio, and comedy music host David Tanny crawling back to his bitterly abandoned Live365 network.
Seems these guys can’t shake their Weird Al addiction. And now that they’ve acknowledged copyright law, which requires permissions and hefty mechanical royalties for the right to offer protected content in download form, the short-lived podcasters can only retreat to the stunted medium of Internet radio.
