Item 38 – Year of the GeminiDragon

Sunday, January 22nd, 2012

We’re back! With our first podcast in Phantom Power Media studio 5.0. I’m mad at software nerds (amongst others, including Twitter!). We drove this SOPA thing into the ground. Then, we talked about the ferocious new dragon stamp that’s (apparently) too scary for Chinese New Year.

Item 31 – For Ben

Saturday, August 27th, 2011

GeminiDragon31Two items in one month. It’s like two for the price of one. Double your value. That’s how we roll. We covered the video we released as item 30. Friend of the show Ben in Australia is going through a rough time right now. He let us know through Twitter how much he appreciated listening to our show. That’s why this item is dedicated to him. Ben was a guest on our old show, and that made me wonder if we should revive our old show? (Where the hell is the Daves Caldberank, already?!?!?!) We talked about how our upcoming trip to Chicago has been booked and that most of the logistics have been worked out. I brought up my latest scheme to finance the purchase of an iPad. Jen’s been sick. We talked about why. Then, we played (edited in) a song we recorded a few years ago. After that, it was pretty much all over.

Item 6 – Gizmos and doodads

GeminiDragon6We celebrated America Day the only way we know how. We recorded a GeminiDragon audio presentation. We were live at the time. (Harold stopped by for a bit. Thanks, Harold.) We wondered how Disney got itself involved in a Gummi Bears cartoon show. Buy World of Warcraft from AmazonWe talked about the magical/revolutionary iPad and how a Chinese company is making cheap knockoffs. I’m now playing World of Warcraft, and we discussed a somewhat related story about online shoppers unknowingly giving up control of their souls. I played a a miraculous jam that’s tearing up the Internetz. Then it was time for some serious iPhone vuvuzela action. We played a new segment called “Which Is Real?” where Jen was faced with two different but equally absurd headlines, and had to figure out which one was real. Then we heard a cool song by A Band Called Quinn. The band is storming the charts, similar to what Rage Against The Machine did last year. Buy the song and support their efforts. Things finished up with an important story about actress Anna Paquin.
