Is that how it ends? Cold like that while talking about the Girls Next Door? Or did my pc crap out at the wrong time?
This was our first listen and we both said, “I like these two.”
Found you from the Julia Sweeney forum today and I’m very glad we did. We’ll be back…

Hey, you guys, your podcast is really interesting. Actually, its a bit voyeuristic like listening in on a conversation I’m not supposed to be listening in on. But, I like that. I suppose that makes me weird.
Well, anyway, thanks for using my song on your podcast. I’d like to get your address sometime so I could send you a CD(I have a new one coming out and I need to clear out my basement).

Jab@bzt,
No, that isn’t how it ends. Strange. I tried re-downloading it and it downloaded alright. It ends with a song each week. This weeks episode was 1 hour 2 minutes, 59 seconds if that helps.
You can right click the title of the episode and save the linked file. That may work if you tried through iTunes.
Thanks for listening!!!

Wendy,
I thought it was odd that that happened. I’ve just converted to Linux and have yet to get all the bugs out of the pc yet.
By the way, where’s Episode 1? Now that we’ve heard the most recent and like it, we want to go back to the git go.

On the right hand side below “previous posts” you can view the blog by month. Our first one happened in October.
Actually, I’ll just add them all to the main page.
Just scroll down. (FYI: Our first episodes were really, really rough. Still fun but we didn’t have any equipment yet. Just a warning.)

The talk about tubes and shooting across the US made me want to watch Robots.
I gave up on making a list each other I know I won’t live up to it.
I don’t get the whole celeb thing either. Although it takes me a couple of times seeing a celeb before I actually realize it is one. lol

Oh, yeah, I didn’t think to go back by the calendar links. Duh.
Gotta say, whatever equipment you’ve gotten works well. I was commenting to Jenny that you guys have a real clean signal over the net. I thought Marty’s mic could come up a bit, but overall, whoever’s controlling the knobs knows what they’re doing. Are you running any compression on the signal at all? I would’t be surprised if you are. Even when the two of you laugh hard, which thankfully is often, laughter rocks, the levels seem to maintain without getting any real clipping. That is a very good thing.
I’m an audio engineeroweenie. Sound matters in these things. On BZT, having the playback distorted or off level in any way can wreck my mood for days on end. But, it’s worth it. I think we have the finest sound on the internet. Well, out of the .002 percent I’ve heard. And it’s about to get even better once we get the Ogg Vorbis up and running.
I wish I would’ve taken some notes as we listened last night. There were sooooo many things that made us laugh our asses off. And I thought to comment on them, but here today, sheesh, I can’t recall a single one. I drink.

Hi Wendy! Yes, you said my name correctly!*grins* Enjoyed last week’s show and I totally understand about long plane flights. I have three business trips, one in Seattle,WA and the other two in CA in February and March. Let just say that I’m going to take my IPod and zone out. Or sleep if I can.*grins*
Hope you had a wonderful New Year’s Eve!
