Too bad @jimmybuffett used "Party at the End of the World" in 2006. Sounds like the perfect tour name for 2012.

Episode 100: La Vie Don King

Show Notes:
Recorded Wednesday, April 22 2009 (9:30 PM - 11:30 PM) at Zodiac Racquet Club, Southgate MI
    “Our big hundredth episode coincides with the start of Summerzcool.  We take a look at the first two nights of the new tour.  (Cameo appearances by Jennifer and Lee.  Special yawn effects by Jacob.)  (The Roger Clyne podcast starts at 29:33.)”

    02:17 - it was decided, a few weeks ago, in a FSGL team meeting, that we would continue podcasting at Zodiac year-round since the pizza is better and it's more centrally located.
    04:26 - Buffett World's Twitter story
    05:34 - twitter.com/buffettworld | twitter.com/buffettnews | twitter.com/WAOTNC
    06:43 - Buffett News's Bob Dylan story.  The full interview can be downloaded in PDF from Bob Dylan's official site.
    07:38 - for the record, Greg's comment is really about Savannah Jane.  I confused Savannah Jane's Thursday interview with Kristin's Saturday interview during the news segment, but this mistaken attribution was edited out.
    08:31 - thepiratebay.org
    12:24 - a reference to how Greg is incapable of downloading any kind of audio file on his work laptop
    14:28 - the boys mock me because I had to redo this announcement.
    18:43 - that would be Episode 70
    20:41 - as you probably already know, it's the beach ball that's purple
    23:57 - a reference to the giant cluster that ends Episode 84
    26:25 - I wish now that I'd said "schooled" instead of "scolded"
    29:54 - in our area, Roger Clyne and Peacemakers are playing Chicago on Friday, May 15; Ann Arbor on Saturday, May 16; and Cleveland on Sunday, May 17.
    33:35 - see Clement Freud tell the joke himself, at Boing Boing.net.  (And I guess that should be Boing Boing "readers" rather than "listeners".)

Episode 98: A Big Gecko Casting Tall Shadows

Show Notes:
Recorded Wednesday, March 25 2009 (9:00 PM - 10:30 PM) at Zodiac Racquet Club, Southgate MI
    “The guys talk about the new theme song and take a closer listen to the Hawaii concerts recently broadcast on Sirius XM.  (Special guest: Joe.  Cameos by Lee and Jennifer.)”

    It’s here!  It’s here!  It only took eight days, but it’s here!
    00:00 - recorded off Late Show with David Letterman on Tuesday, March 10

    04:42 - here’s the brand-new behind-the-scenes documentary of our theme song recording session…

    (Note: the embed from Vimeo was playing unfortunately weird.  It’s been replaced with the embed from Viddler, but our video can still be viewed at Vimeo, at Viddler itself, or in our Facebook group.)
    04:57 - featuring the talents of Jim Auquier (The Jimmy Show) and Rob Norum of, together. Acoustic Rewind.
    05:30 - we had to whip up a final verse on the spot.  I think Scott offered the “Shadows tall” line, about which I was skeptical.  I doubted the tilt of the Earth was substantial enough to change shadows in Autumn and the rhyme smacked of desperation.  The following morning Scott “took me to school”, offering the following information in an e-mail.

Summer sunlight is more direct.  More energy per unit area is received by sun.  Thin[k] of the longer shadows cast in winter.  Also think of the beam of a flashlight illuminating a spot on a table:  Direct illumination provides maximum light per unit area.  Tilting the flashlight means that the beam is spread over more area but its is giving of the same energy per unit time.  Thus the energy per unit time per area is smaller in the tilted case, and similarly as applies to the sun in the winter.

    10:21 - ...that said, the acoustic guitar in the clip you heard was Jim Auquier

    21:33 - hear that crackling in the left speaker?  That’s not our usual cellphone interference.  You are witnessing the start of the slow death of my beloved Core Sound mics.
    21:51 - Buffett News’s write-up of Jimmy at the Jim Clark & Kristy Hinze nuptials
    23:42 - “Buffett Looking at New Sea Plane”, as mentioned on Buffett World

    26:20 - Buffett News’s write-up of the Key West Margaritaville Café fire | Buffett World’s write-up of the Key West Margaritaville Café fire.  P.S.: it appears the San Carlos Institute re-opened in time.
