Why No Podcasts?

There was a time when people actually tuned into the Podcrapular podcast that featured the mighty Golfwidow and myself.

Sadly, that project has been indefinitely put on hold. You may recall the awful news about Golfwidow losing her job thanks to the lousy economy that doesn't exist according to those in a certain portion of our government. That little setback has turned into a full-on major butt-fooking mess and it just isn't getting better.

See, Golfwidow and her hubby were planning on starting anew elsewhere. Seeing as how New Haven, CT was sucking balls anyway (and maybe always has) there was a plan in place to relocate somewhere more fun, warmer, with a better job scene. Indeed they had planned on moving out to Las Vegas. What's more, they were going to be starting there new life in our home for a short spell while they found jobs and a place of there own.

This was to be great. We save a bit on rent and expenses (YAY, savings account!), they get a fresh start at a bargain comparatively speaking, and the podcast could resume and be recorded IN THE SAME ROOM!

As it happened, they have been delayed on leaving New Haven through no fault of their own. unscrupulous bankers have royally lived up to the image we all have of them today with regard to mortgages and foreclosures. There has also been a lack of follow through on the aforementioned bank assholes regarding payments and other things, even though Golfwidow and Jeff have done their part in full. She can tell you the whole story at her blog.

In short, they've been sitting in a home that isn't really there's for much longer, relying on the savings and pittance they got for their condo to live, and making no more money since neither one can get a job in the shitty economy that doesn't exist.

They need help. If anyone can send her a few bucks, buy a guest post for your blog, or maybe buy a copy of her book to give to a friend, please do so. Full details are available at her site. She'll get out here soon, but she needs about a million friends right now. Those million friends need not all send a buck, but you get the point.

Please Help Golfwidow

My good friend, talented writer, and podcast partner, Goflwidow has been downsized by the job she used to think was filled with awesome.

She's seriously living in the "FUCKED ZONE" right now. See, not only is she out of work, but her husband has been looking for a new job for some time as well.

She is terrified.

She is also too proud to beg in her time of need (unlike myself). Rather, she is offering to write guest posts on your blog for a donation of TWO DOLLARS. Don't believe me? Read the whole story here.

I've got a better solution. Buy a copy of her most excellent and very funny book, "Getting My Think On". She'll end up getting more cash and you'll get a much better understanding as to why she and I are friends and why I like her so much. If anything, you'll have a wonderful read and I assume that's why you stroll through blogs in the first place.

I'll be sending her some moolah on my own. She helped me out when my house blew up and even though she'll protest, I fully expect to return the kindness.

A Most Podcrapular Day to You All!

It has been far too long since I've been able to say this to you.

The new podcast is up and running!

That's right, kiddies! Podcrapular is BACK! Lord knows for how long though, so listen up while you can. Here are a few things to remember.

Since it has been so darned long since we had any podcasting activity, our call-in phone line has crapped out. Don't call there to tell us how much you love us.

We still have a MySpace Page and you can certainly leave comments, listen to the show, whatever all right there.

You may also send e-mail messages to podcrapular@gmail.com. I can't promise we'll answer them, but I can promise that we might read them.

We now have a "producer". Josh, our hearty and able-bodied co-host during the absence of Andy has signed on to do whatever a producer does. All I know is that Golfwidow has considerably less time to edit the show together and I believe that Josh has resolved that issue nicely for her. Plus, he's very funny and offers some fresh ideas to the whole thing. YAY, Josh!


We also have a "sponsor". I put "sponsor" in quotes because we don't have any real money from the "sponsor" to speak of, but "sponsor" sounds much nicer than "friend or family member who has a cool new product to share". Check out Spori-Clean at KillMoldFast.com to learn more or just look at this snazzy new ad.

We also spend a lot of time talking about the bloggers we've met, the friends we care about, and the people who deserve a little more linky-love in general. Here's a list of folks mentioned prominently on your ridiculous program.



So there you go. Lots to occupy your time while I'm away in West Virginia spinning plates and possibly snapping a photo with Gladys Knight. I haven't performed a live show in so damned long I'm actually nervous about this one. I am really missing being a full-time entertainer. Someday...maybe.
