Its been a while so I thought I’d catch up on some shows. Good to hear you guys again, and its good to hear another DrunkCast – no matter how toned down.

Some thoughts:
I have noticed at airports – other than the one in San Luis Obispo -, that employees will pronounce the city name the same way you referenced. When I was new to the area it confused me because I would think “wait, then what is the correct way to pronounce it?”. Oh well. And yes, there ARE a lot of honky Mofos up in dat piece. I wasn’t so sure when I lived there, but I have noticed that when I am back there that things are a whole lot whiter there than where I currently live. I dunno, maybe the inner racist in me is telling me to move to a more homogeneous city or something. SLC here I come!

Good to hear that you are hanging out at tha gym these days Shawn. I’ve been doing quite a bit of running this summer and its good to see I’m not the only one trying to clamber on up on the health wagon (but what is this I hear about you drinking?…!!!!!!?). You might have to give me a hand to help me on up though.

Sorry I missed out on the Christmas in July contest. I’ll have to get in on that action next time. I gotta know what the link is to that Ghostface Killah youtube clip! It sounded hilarious. As a big Wu-Tang Clan fan, I like to keep up on all aliases of active Clan members. Gotta love 2 Live Crew also…don’t know about The 69 Boys thought, I only have a passing knowledge of them. On the matter of Wikipedia, I have only contributed to an article once, and it was a long time ago, for the article on Stephen King’s novel “The Long Walk” (which he wrote as Richard Bachman way back in the day). I think it was a correction on something inaccurate that someone else had posted if I remember correctly. Anyway, the correction was still up last time I checked so I guess it was accepted by the general public, for whatever thats worth.

I will have to do another post about the whole Kill Whitey thing. That was amazing.

Hope all is well and that this has been a better week for Jenn than the one that this show was recorded during. I’ll be down in SLO next week so I will drop you guys a line!

I’m trying to get on the damn leaderboard too…

Rowley got onto izzie Voodoo thanks to me. I first played her on my own show a few months ago and after discovering she’s a podcaster herself (http://www.voodooquotashow.co.uk) I got her involved in Made In The UK (http://www.madeintheukshow.co.uk) too.

It’s really cool you bought the CD after hearing it on a podcast. My copy wasn’t signed because I got it from her PR company so I could write a review for her. So I didn’t get a signed copy, but I did get it free. She’s actually posted the review I wrote in it’s entirety on her website. Very, very cool.

I keep saying on my show that music podcasting is promotion not piracy. As Jen commented on my homepage the other day, bands who don’t want to send me their singles to be played are REALLY missing the point. 99% of the bands I play are small independent groups who can do with all the publicity they can get. If people don’t hear the material they aren’t going to buy it. It aggravates me intensely when bands get in touch with me via myspace and then won’t send me their singles to play.

Related to absolutely nothing, I heard something rather cool today. As people who listen to my podcast will know I am a HUGE fan of professional cycling. I discovered today that Team Columbia, one of the top professional teams, is based in SLO. The only two things I knew about San Luis before then was you guys live there and Cal Poly – SLO occasionally send players to the NFL. The last one to do so was Chris Gocong who currently plays for the Philadelphia Eagles.
