I'm testing out a new feed - redirecting to Feedburner.  It seems to be circular, but I followed what people said.  But if people see things starting to be wonky with the feed, please let me know at mainthepa@gmail.com

Thanks!

And in other news - if anyone is interested in hearing the song I started to sing during the media review in my last show - the one called Touch My Ass - call my voice mail line at (206)338-3942 and request to hear it.  If I get enough calls, I'll play it in full in the next episode.  It's a great Peanut Butter and Julie song.

Ahoy, welcome to Show 16, and since it's Talk Like a Pirate Day, You get show notes in a modified pirate speak!  Avast!  Today's show features a Media Review that will definitely make you go ARGGH when Addison and I talk about the 80's film Real Genius.  Why argh? Because I forgot my notes, and what follows is a sad example of MA without her notes.  But there is laughing, and there is silliness as I try to recreate a scene from the movie.  So enjoy me hearties!

Podcamp Philly
Doug from Geek Acres
Ken Newquist – Nuketown Radio
Andy from the Andy Cast
BUCKET
Transformers on IMDB and yeah, it didn't suck
JC Hutchins and SOLIDARITY (incidentally, my goal is 250 words per day)

Linux and Feisty Fawn
Sending out the call – can someone get me instructions for Feisty Fawn to help me install my wireless card for the laptop I installed it on.  The card – a Linksys  WPC11v4  and the computer is a Dell Inspiron 4000.  Oh, and I need help installing Skype as well – when I go to open the install package – some library is missing, and I couldn't even Google for it.  More later on the specific error message I received.

I will be lending my voice to Chris Lester's Metamor City, which is coming very soon – make sure you subscribe so you don't miss anything!

Addison's MySpace page
Real Genius on IMDB

Promo from Christiana Ellis

Voice mail from Wendell – where I scold him for naming the Video Game System that Shall Not Be Named (but I'll link to that)
Voice mail from Doug
Links to my photos from Podcamp Philly

As always you can read about my goings on at Twitter or on my Live Journal.  If you would like to leave me a voice mail, please call (206)338-3942.  You can also send MP3 comments or email to mainthepa@ gmail.com

The intro and outro music is by Peanut Butter and Julie, and look for them on Itunes.

Good morning everyone! 

I'm attempting to post these show notes before work, but I have to get myself and one kid ready, not to mention fill out forms for school.  So these show notes may be lazier than others.  But onward, ho!

Making my own mini D*C, I got to see/talk to while on vacation...
Christiana Ellis
Systris of the Triscast
Jared Axelrod
JR Blackwell
Mur Lafferty
Matthew Wayne Selznick
Earl Newton
CMMMAR!!!!
Natalie and Tee Morris - a big thank you for putting me up last week on such short notice and making me feel so welcome!

And the whole trip was to see...

Steve Eley - Escape Pod, Pseudopod, Podcastle
Leann Mabry - Tag in the Seam

A note - if you haven't seen a show drop from Leann in a couple of weeks - go to her site and check out her new feed - she had to change it, and you may not have gotten the update.

Steve and I talk about Stardust today - have you seen it?  If not - drop everything and go now!
