I have good news and bad news.
The bad news is that I’m moving tomorrow, so this is the last podcast I’ll be able to post for a few days.
The good news is that I have an actual recording room in the new place, so the quality of these podcasts should greatly improve.
Well, I should clarify that. The quality of the sound should improve. The podcasts themselves will remain as uninspired and lifeless as ever. You don’t screw with a winning formula.
In the interest of full disclosure, I should tell you that I am heavily medicated in this podcast. I threw my back out in the stupidest way possible (you’ll hear the sad story at the beginning), and I chewed up a big handful of Vicodin before we started recording.
It was easily the most fun I ever had talking to Marc, and I don’t know why I didn’t think of it sooner.
In any case, it led us to talking at length about sleep and dreams, and it opened up an interesting new way for you, the discerning listener, to contribute to the show.
In the last few minutes of this track, Marc gives out a special number for you to call. You’ll hear all the details at around the 37 minute mark, but basically, we want you to leave a message we can incorporate into an upcoming podcast. You can call more than once if you like, but make sure your message relates to what we’re asking for so we can make the most of it.
I’ll be back next week with hellish stories of my move, and a budding Codeine habit I can’t afford.

FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PUT THAT IN YOU CRACK AND PIPE IT!

SECOND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Observations:
1. Marc seems to know an awful lot about the Jerry Springer Show. I’ve never even been able to stomach that show even when channel surfing and seeing it for like a nano-second.
2. I’ve had the same Nyquil experiences as April. Very surreal!
3. I would love to call with my dreams, but unfortunately in my over half a century on this planet, I’ve only remembered a handful of dreams, and promptly forgot them when I told my husband about them. Note: The ones I told him about came true, so it’s probably a good thing that I don’t remember them =D
4. Goy Sauce?!! LFMAO!

Jerry Springer exploits? What else can a guy who walks on his hands because he’s missing his body below his belly button do for work?
Coinstar rips-off. Looked all over for a notice of a fee - nothing. Dumped in my change; out pops a receipt showing 10% processing fee.
4 Turntablist // Mar 6, 2008 at 1:27 pm
Sound quality is the best yet on this one. There’s a teensy bit of echo-y feedback on your side, April. As if you left your speakers on. But you sound like you’re both in the same room now. Chirp chirp.

I’ll be on the phone in mere seconds - but here is a good thread on Defamer. It turns out that the fancy Phillipe restaurant has a security camera in their “private” wine cellar and it has captured many celebrity couples “stomping grapes” as it were- which couple do you wish would be captured next.
One suggestion: Jerry Stiller and Anne Mera

I think that picture is misleading.
The picture clearly shows a person being woken up by one of your podcasts. As we all know, the usual effect of Winchell et Germain is the exact opposite. This is what is commonly known as false advertising.
Anyone know the number for Gloria Allred?
9 JohnnyBoy // Mar 6, 2008 at 5:56 pm
A lot of banks have counting machines now at no charge (if you have an account), but I do use Coinstar since those banks aren’t open when I need them to be since I’m away from the house from 7 am to 7 pm
anyway, the processing fee is worth it if you make more than minimum wage. plus which, even if i DID take the hour(s) to roll my own, (and write the damn account # on them)I’d still have to get to the aforementioned banks

inerror, FYI johnny eck(who was in the film ‘freaks’) was a concert pianist and performed stravinsky for stravinsky. granted someone else had to work the pedals. I’ve always loved springer, but I have to say the sideshow acts this season seem to undercut the guests misery. In fact, I’ve been switching to MXC reruns on spike.

the piece JE chose included ‘three pieces from ‘petruoska” not the easy way out.

I’m so needy.

milton’s obit has been held up. it becomes a big deal if the family chooses to write its own. I knew he worked as peter lawfords’s personal manager. However, I forgot that peter lawford was john kennedy’s brother-in-law and so I was wearing a’dead kennedys’ t-shirt the day I met him. I am one degree of seperation from ‘camelot’. On my own merit my major advisor at Berkeley, john Addison, was the man who hired the unabomber. So the kennedies are three degrees of seperation from Dr. Ted through me!!!
15 pal Jacky // Mar 6, 2008 at 9:50 pm
I call him Dr. Ted because of his manifesto made sense to me. His solutions were a tad over the top, but he nailed the problems of our post-industrial age down pat. Furthermore, If Dr. laura can use her PHD in P.E. to dispense his vile advise. Dr. Ted should be able to use his PHD in mathematics to do the same.

I doubt the knucklewalker on Jerry has it in him to perform piano concerto. Regarding Coinstar. I was proud of the three or four dollars I’d saved at Vons using coupons only to see it snatched away through deceptive labeling of their one-armed bandit at the door. It would one thing if they donated the fee to charity.
If you’re tired of Springer, the Steve Wilkos show is heating up. Steve is a former Springer security staffer (referee). Jerry started employing skinny young women to referee a couple of 400 pounders knocking jugs and butting heads. It just doesn’t work.

I have had a Tempur-pedic mattress for like 10 years and it is still in very good shape. No “hammocking” or sagging. Either Marc is having some kind of intense, WWF-inspired, mattress-destroying sex (which is hard to imagine…. and rather unpleasant to imagine— Sorry for the word-picture, everyone), or he bought a cheap-ass knock-off foam piece of crap that’s not nearly as good as the real thing. Knowing what I know of Marc (solely from radio and podcasts, admittedly), I think the latter is quite likely. The cheap bastard.

I want tape of American Gladiators Millitia and Justice “stomping grapes”.
Then Auntie Vera can do the color commentary

no this ‘kenny’ on springer is no johnney eck. I would say that kenny needs a good anal rape, but I don’t even want to think about his plumbing, maybe by diane sawyer with a strap on. As far as stravinsky goes, many believe he was slightly microsaphalic(pinheaded)which is why he had such a softspot for ‘freaks’.(see photo) Of course these are the same people who think that dolly parton and Katey sagal are pinheads with their points hidden by giant hair.

Does April have Netflix?
They have the entire Quincy episodes on the watch online page called Browse Instant. With some episodes missing.

Free the lost podcast! Free the lost podcast!
23 pal Jacky // Mar 8, 2008 at 5:04 pm
down the drain is ‘jackass’ as well as jerry springer. Something called ‘jackassworld’was on MTV last night. the part I saw featured the fat guy and wee man doing a mock talk show. at one point they called two interns in, had them drop trou and then duct taped their dicks together. Pixelation obscured whatever point the feat might have had.

The best part of this podcast is the birds chirping in the background while they’re talking about NyQuil.

“I have a big pumpkin head

I thought I was big at 7-7/8ths. You put me to shame.

I was at a Rite Aid the other evening (yes, I know I have no social life…LOL!) and I was about to turn into the Coke and soda section when I noticed a large spill of RED WINE! - the spill was not unlike that of the EXXON VALDEZ, though this was a wine spill.
Needless to say, an efficient Rite Aid employee was already on the case (his name tag read “Mario”)
THANK GAWWD I didn’t slip on the sticky wine, otherwise I would’ve had to sue (Hollywood-style of course)
thanks
love the site

okay, so they are bithing and moaning about ‘racist’ video games. they seem to have left out the obviously anti-semitic ‘frogger’. My god depicting jews with green skin being ran over by cars. It was an outragge twenty-five years ago and its an outrage today.

i know resident evil is about zombies and black zombies can look sterotyped out of context. but this is an outrage. ‘babes of final fantasy’, how pathetic do you have to be to look at these CGI creations as babes. Even worse, Tif’s photo doesn’t show her tits. She has the best tits of all in Final fantasy and all they give us is a head shot.

Having a studio to work in will kill.
But fuck, moving blows ass.
My sympathies on that.

I’m telling you this guy had the best stories, and he often said
that jerry lewis was the biggest asshole in hollywood.

I just realized they must have gotten Mr. K. They’ve either knocked him off or sent him off for rendition in a dungeon in eastern Europe. April is only putting on this charade to fool the easily fooled. April was still working for them after Mr. K was sent into exile. They’ve even developed some kind of voice emulation robot, like the Terminator. Maybe they’re hunting Mr. K right now. He’s living in the shadows of fascho-Amerika on the kindness of fellow revolutionaries. I’m such a fool to have been taken in for so long!

35 Brandex // Mar 31, 2008 at 4:46 pm
Custer’s Revenge is racist and maybe Shadow Warrior is racist (though I thought it mostly parodied cheesy kung fu movies) but I don’t see how the other ones are. It seems like everyone wants to go after those GTA games, though the GTA series pretty much pokes fun of everybody.
pal Jacky, did you ever see the video of the guy who caught his roommate jerking off to the dancing Night Elves in WOW? I don’t understand it, but some people really get turned on by cartoons and computer images.
36 JohnnyBoy // Mar 31, 2008 at 5:48 pm
That’s how someone I know’s friend got the nickname “catfucker”, not due to any deviant act, but because he thought the cartoon Josie and the Pussycats were hot
37 Brandex // Mar 31, 2008 at 9:15 pm
Hehe. I was with some friends at Denny’s once (the home for all social deviants) and somebody invited this guy who brought a bunch of pictures of these half-wolf and half-fox people fucking. That was the first time I had ever met a furry.
