It’s been a few weeks since our last show. OK, more than a few weeks. Since our last show, we went to the wiener dog races. And other things have happened, too.
And oh yeah. This is the last GeminiDragon episode. Be sure and subscribe to our new podcast, No Market Radio. We’ll be launching in conjunction with the beginning of NaPodPoMo, which starts November 1st.
The weekend before, we visited the world-famous Madonna Inn for our anniversary. We stayed in a very cave-like hotel room and had dinner in a very pink dining room.
We played some voicemails from Les. My concerns about Detroit being a Mad-Max like war zone have been verified! I’d still take Detroit over Waukegan, tho…
We received a package from Will Loomis. We opened it live on the podcast. It was jam-packed with Loomis And The Lust merch! Listen closely and learn how you can win a few Loomis discs for yourself!
I’ve been spending a lot of time digging thru old documents. I found some old medical insurance claims and was surprised when I found out what they were for. Also, Jen’s infamous zero-dollar paycheck from Kohl’s.
Jen’s fighting off a sinus infection. But she got to use her (fairly) new health insurance for the first time. That lead to a long discussion of the Affordable Care Act and the upcoming presidential election.
I went to an Independence Day barbecue. It was fun. Also, maybe I should start drinking more?
We finished out the show by interviewing Will Loomis of the band Loomis & The Lust. Will recently filed a lawsuit against British pop star Jessie J. Will believes Jessie’s hit song “Domino” is a ripoff of his song “Bright Red Chords.” We discussed the lawsuit as well as the band’s new album and its new lineup. Then we played the title track from that album, “Sports Suck:”
I have IDEAS. One of them involves suing the government. On a related note, I had to visit the local Social Security office, also known as the Black Hole of Joy.
