Episode 38: Searching for Our Lost Topic of Conversation

Show Notes:
Recorded Wednesday, May 23 2007 (9:30 PM – 11:30 PM), at Joe’s Prime Time, Brownstown MI
    “Discussion of the many covers of Margaritaville, as our second contest ends.

    00:04 – “God’s Juice” refers to water, or in this case ice water. I am unaware of the derivation of this, but I have a hunch Roger Clyne is involved. Perhaps someone will enlighten us in the Comments.
    01:36 – my out of season “Feels Like Christmas” is a reference to Muppet Christmas Carol
    02:10 – the guys will probably be ragging on Schmoe’s dinner choices for a while. Schmoe has decided to sample all the entrees, instead of just sticking with burgers
    02:54 – it was Designated Driver, at RCPM’s Waterin’ Hole discussion board, who has a problem with our Fargo-ish accents link
    03:08 – did Scott just call us whores?
    05:04 – here’s the press release on the Biloxi casino. My reticence stems from uneasiness that Jimmy might be part of privatizing the post-Katrina coastline, which the New Orleans mayor had warned about. I was unaware however that this new casino replaces a previous casino at the same location
    05:23 – Buffett News has the transcript of Nadirah’s Time After Island Time interview
    10:04 – you can find our Pirate Speak translation at the right … or you can click here
    10:20 – I think Greg is confusing pirates and Vikings
    13:02 – in my defense, I couldn’t “read” the Excel file since I don’t have Excel
    14:04 – also in my defense. Our waitress, Ashley, dropped some change and, because of my lardassitude (and my hernia), it’s a lot easier to kneel to reach the floor than it is stoop over.
    15:15 – oops, I’m repeating myself. My “Margarineville” joke was already used in Episode 34!
    16:28 – you guys don’t need the story about Greg’s “wireless network”, right?
    18:41 – Scott’s requested Raven Symone link
    20:19 – Schmoe’s eBay woes were first mentioned in Episode 21
    26:16 – Marching Band version. Why not record your own?
    27:45 – “unshun”, of course, comes from the “Safety Training” episode of The Office
    29:16 – AC/DC’s “Hell’s Bells” provided by Joe’s Prime Time jukebox
    32:10 – Elise was vacationing in Florida, our waitress Tara had already clocked out, and the other waitress, Ashley, flat our refused to be recorded
    32:43 – it’s not over the top; it’s a hymn from St Looney Up the Cream Bun & Jam
    33:38 – Schmoe included some fine print in the script for the oil tycoon: “And did I mention I suck”

Listener Tom provided this information on some of his less recognizable album titles:

    Here’s an explanation to a few you had questions about:
    “Wireless” – This was a show I downloaded off the FTP sites when those were still running. It was from 1999, but that’s all I know about it right now.
    “Raven’s Tailgate” – This is a compilation a fellow Baltimore Raven’s Tailgater put together. It has some catchy tunes on it to get everyone ready for the game.
    “Treasure Box” – This is a compilation of rare tracks put together. It was available from the FTP site and a trading vine on BuffettNEws.com. This set is five CDs. It’s 105 rare/unreleased tracks.
    “Buffett Rarieties” – This is another compilation available on FTP. This was also available on the FTP sites and a vine on BuffettNews.com. This is only four CDs. It’s 58 rare/unreleased tracks.
    “Escape to Margaritaville” – Apparently, this is the same CD that was titled “Pitcher Perfect”. This is the promo CD that came out with Margaritaville Tequila. It has “Margaritaville” and “Tequila”. It’s a smaller CD that was attached to the bottle. I posted a picture of it on BuffettNews.com.

  1. OK, “God’s Juice” It happened on our way to Chicago. We stopped at a small town’s Steak and Shake. Mike, Joe and I were enjoying our food and this woman came up, who by the way was not our waitress, and asked “Do you want some more God’s Juice, Hon?” I was puzzled by this and did not know how to answer. I looked at Mike for help in processing that question and he had nothing. I then looked at Joe who would not make direct eye contact. After a couple of uncomfortable seconds I responded yes and found out she was referring to water. It was interesting.

    THe End!

  2. I guess I have an accent!

    Northern

    You have a Northern accent. That could either be the Chicago/Detroit/Cleveland/Buffalo accent (easily recognizable) or the Western New England accent that news networks go for.
