Morris is still dead

“I am pleased to report that Jesus is alive and well and poised to return at any moment,” Taylor Kent says, with a level of irony I am not yet prepared to measure, as introduction to his Snark Infested Waters podcast.

Morris The Cat, on the other hand, is still dead, but nevertheless finds a place on Kent’s program. My song closes the show, following a couple of old radio mysteries.

The second episode, an I Love A Mystery presentation of “The Fear That Creeps Like A Cat,” apparently inspired Kent’s selection of my song, available via the Podsafe Music Network. Continue reading

Sirius Radio voting scandal!

This week, Shawno tells a long and pitiable story about how he brought a meat-and-cheese platter to a party and believed that everyone was laughing at him.

But the mood brightens considerably when, fireside chat-style, Shawno reads an extended excerpt from my memorable blog entry, Diebold, Sirius declare fini to countdown show fiasco. In a note of podcast brotherhood, he strongly backs the Turetzky team.

Jen closes with an episode of As The Type Moves, in which she mockingly reads from some other poor schmuck’s Live Journal: Continue reading

Still whoring

Regular visitors to Podcast Roundup will recall an occasion in September when, over the weak protests of hosts Shawno and Jen, I dumped a special honor on the podcast Hyper Nonsense.

“See, every time we talk about Ken, he adds us to his Podcast Roundup. We’re not just trying to totally be the official Podcast Roundup whores!” Shawno said in Episode 28 of their production, coincidentally titled Whores of the Roundup.

Now, Hyper Nonsense has only strengthened its hold on that claim by devoting a moment of Episode 54 to plug Her Shit Don’t Stink for Song of the Year on Sirius Radio’s Red Peters Comedy Music Show Year-End Countdown. Continue reading

Big Ugly 2.0, Episode VII

A subdued Fugly J. Wetzel apologizes for the recent lack of new program content and promises a “re-booted” Big Ugly Podcast in 2007.

Recently, Fugly’s been beaten down by pizza delivery obligations, car problems and unreliable production equipment. Co-host D-Evil is busy moving into a new house.

All fodder for fascinating future podcast discussion, I’m sure. I mean, why watch network television when you can listen to a couple of overeducated Midwestern low-wage-earners comment ironically on their tragically wasted potential? Continue reading
