Show Notes:
Recorded Wednesday, March 21 2007 (9:00 PM – 11:00 PM), at Zodiac Racquet Club, Southgate MI
“The Roger Clyne podcast (which starts at 13:45) threatens to take over the whole episode. BW Dream Setlists and BN March Madness are also touched on; and Mike and Schmoe gripe about pop stars and iTunes, respectively. Guest appearances by Jennifer and Lee.”
Our hideout was nowhere near as crowded as last time and we had no trouble setting up in our recording studio. The food was ravioli for Schmoe and pizza for the others. The drink was a pitcher of Amber Bock, bottles of Bud Light (for me), and water. My “She blushes” comment is a quote from the “Shindig” episode of Firefly.
There was a lot more behind-the-scenes commentary about the BuffettNews.com Buffett News podcast. Here’s a blog page exclusive outtake.
No official word on who the King Kong Trio was comprised of, but one disreputable site says it was Jimmy, Mike Utley, and Robert Greenidge. Submit your Dream Setlist at BuffettWorld. And follow the March Madness match-ups at BuffettNews. How ’bout that 300 imitation, eh? Bob-Lo was an old amusement park on an island in the Detroit River. The revised Schmoeonade recipe is accessible here.
Buy No More Beautiful World direct from Roger Clyne’s website. Apparently, according to Mike, I’ll be seeing Roger Clyne on May 3 at the Magic Bag.
I know we sound like a bunch of cranky old men, but, seriously, “Fergilicious” is pure shit.
Hey, I just noticed Mike’s comment about living on Dix and Champaign! [Google Maps link] Don’t know the story behind the quote but it should be fun to play back to his wife.
Learn more about Mike’s homework answer at Club Trini.com. Brandi Carlile’s iTunes listing really is screwed up. I’m no expert but the races that lead to the America’s Cup take many months, so Scott and Schmoe can both be right.

And now, our product placement. Whet your Herr’s appetite at their official site. Of course, we’re more familiar with Herr’s as being a plot point in the “Grief Counseling” episode of The Office. Here’s the official site for Schmoe’s Laughing Cow cheese. And although, for your own well-being, this should not be construed as a commercial endorsement, you can learn more about Falstaff Beer bottle caps here.
By the way, this week’s show title comes from “Silly Noises” track on Monty Python’s Previous Record.

America’s Cup, yes. I thought I even mumbled that it goes on for so darn long it renders it even less important than it already is. It actually HAS been going on and starts in earnest very shortly, now that it is in Europe after it’s second (or third) stint down under. They race in spring/summer. So when in the southern hemispshere, that means our fall and winter. And that’s enough about this rich man’s sport.
Yes, when Austrialia held the race it was in Feb!! So Schmoe was correct. The premiminary rounds have now started off the coast of Spain!!
