Unsinkable 17

Well here it is. Having survived power outages and A/C turmoil and everything, I finally got #17 together. I hope you enjoy. It's a fun one!

Countdown #17

Sweet Sixteen

Well, here it is. Countdown #16. Got some new stuff on there and some old stuff. And I'll get around to writing my Smashing Pumpkins experience soon.

Quick managerial note: I'm going to be taking something like the first 3-5 episodes down. If, for some reason, one of those is your favorite, but you don't have a copy, get it soon!

Countdown #16

#15 (but really #16, if you think about it...)

I suppose that I will have to update the numbering system to include the Flashback countdowns. Maybe I'll do it like the comic books and, for #24, skip right to the SPECIAL 25th EPISODE! (-sode, -sode-, -sode) (That was supposed to be an echo.)

For now, here's #15! Stay tuned for my post about the Smashing Pumpkins concert I'm going to tomorrow night...wait...it's 1:59 am. It's TONIGHT! Woohoo!!!

Countdown #15

Sometimes (every post I do) someone in China comments. What do they say? (Part 1)

"When person innermost feelings can hold the thing which different conflicts mutually, this person then started becomes has the value"

Early morning posting!

Well, it's bright and early on Wednesday and here I am posting the new countdown. It's a pretty good one, in my opinion.

Couple of other things:

- I now have a twitter account. I realized that there were some people (Contrast Podcast alums, mostly) that didn't have Facebook, but DID have Twitter. And so, to better keep in touch with them, I have a Twitter account. Its @james80d (I think that's how you tell people what your Twitter username is. That's how I've always seen it done, anyways)

- My good friend Andy is treating me to tickets to the Smashing Pumpkins (Playing the National in Richmond, July 13th) for my birthday. So look forward to a post on that as it will DEFINITELY be a lifelong (or at least "since-I-was-16-long") dream come true. I'm so so stoked.

- The Smashing Pumpkins are still going strong with their mission to release 11 4-song EP's, one song at a time, for free. They released the first song of the second EP yesterday. It's at smashingpumpkins.com. I haven't heard it yet, but the other songs from this project have been pretty damn impressive.

And finally, here's the countdown!

Countdown #14

See you later guys!

Truly better late than never.

I seriously considered skipping this week. You get to a point where it's like "I haven't been able to find the gusto to record for two nights in a row" and that's discouraging. But I love doing this podcast. As a wise band once put it: Who needs sleep?
