Notes: I think this is our longest show so far, we just keep packing it with articles and beer and music! All kinds of stuff going on in the news. Interesting to hear the two versions of the same story and how the media can manipulate the facts to give you completely different viewpoints. This sort of stuff goes on every day, we help you see through it. We had an impromptu comparison of last week’s beer, Shock Top, with a local microbrew, Hangar 24. What a disappointment on so many levels! Music from The Haunted (from Sweden) and Tool (not from Sweden). Don’t forget to leave a comment about this show.

Intro music: “Anhelos” by Leechmaster
Outro music: “8-bit Junkie” by George Wood
Notes: A lot of news in this episode! We continue our vodka shootout with last week’s winner, Smirnoff, up against Seagrams. In the end it was a tie, I chose Seagrams and Joe chose Smirnoff. The next day I wanted to change my vote because the Seagrams gave me a real bad headache BUT we drank all the Smirnoff so Seagrams moves to Round 3 by default. We mentioned some websites to check out (linked above) and we played a song from a psychobilly band called The Slapbacks and a Beatles super-cover-band called Yellow Matter Custard.

Notes: Our official “Christmas Show”, with a few guests to join in the holiday festivities (i.e. drinking whiskey, b*tching about current events, etc). Following up on Part 1 of our Whiskey Showdown, Episode 9 features Part 2: Wild Turkey vs. Maker’s Mark. It wasn’t easy picking a winner this time around, listen in to find out who won. Also, this episode includes two featured bands: Balzac, a band from Japan, and Shihad, a band from New Zealand. The crazy thing is that neither one of us knew which bands we were picking for the show, yet we both picked bands from outside the US that have their roots in punk rock (Balzac = more old school punk and Shihad = more nu-punk). Plus our usual ghost updates to round out the show. Leave us some feedback on the changes we’ve been making…. and we hope you have a great holiday weekend.

Notes: Another great show! December is the month of change I guess, since we changed a few things with this show too. We spread the music out and featured a brand new song from Slayer and a psychobilly band from Finland. Also, the alcohol review is for two whiskeys in a head-to-head, bottom’s up competition. Lots of randomness and we even kicked up the sound effects throughout the show. This was a fun show and at just over 1 hour, it’s our longest show so far. So much entertainment for so little money….. spread the word! Don’t forget to leave us some feedback.

Notes: Another great show…. how do we do it? Mad skillz. Ok, just mad. As requested, an update on our ghostly visitors. Check the link above to order a copy of the George C. Scott movie ‘The Changling’ on Amazon. Look at that, less than $6.00. If you already have that movie, then donate the $6.00 to this show – look for the Paypal donation button over there —> Hey, the alcohol we review isn’t free ya know! More “nothing to see here” by the Federal Reserve and their efforts to thwart a growing distrust in their organization. We both agree that Milagro silver tequila is good stuff, and some good funky music by Black Landlord. 57 minutes of action-packed goodness!

This episode was experimental. Some new equipment, extreme time constraints, and my sound effects weren’t working. I spent way too much time in post-production editing, but it’s what we do to try to put on a quality show. Believe it (or not).

Episode 2 is done and ready for your listening displeasure. No alcohol review this week, didn’t want any run-ins with the popo since they were out in full force in the neighborhood. We also got some mic and EQ problems fixed that were present in the first episode. Overall, it’s closer to good than the first one!
I’m going to try to get each episode published by Sunday evening.
