Item 57 – Gore-bellied earth-vexing jolthead

Monday, July 23rd, 2012

We went to the Renaissance Festival. I paid a woman to insult me.

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!

Here’s the YouTube interview clip I mentioned during the podcast:

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.

We played a fine song by Loudtalkers.

We finished up the program with a story about a town in Alaska that has a cat for its mayor. And a plea for contributions to our Canadia trip fund.

Item 54 – 8,000 pounds of Spam

Thursday, June 14th, 2012

Jen’s back! And she’s got her own theory on this whole DiC thing.

We played a voice mail from Les.

Then, we played a sound clip of Jen comparing her new headset to her old one. (Hear the new set on the latest episode of Inside My Head.)

We covered a story about an expensive Canadian pizza.

More complaints about the neighbors.

Jen read comments from David and Colin, which lead to a discussion about Diablo III, piracy and paying for podcasts.

Our Internet connection is still slow but we’re not switching to another provider. Yet.

We read a story (and played some audio) about how Metallica is trying to help catch a murderer.

That was followed by a story about how a hitchhiking writer was shot in Montana. (He’s writing a book about “kindness in America.”)

Jen read some e-mails of questionable origin. (Hear Jen utter the phrase, “I’m always wanna have sex!”)

Then, we closed out the show with some audio of a Korean teacher who can’t quite pronounce the word “Coke.”
