Episode 53: Bores

Show Notes:
Recorded Wednesday, October 10 2007 (8:30 PM – 11:30 PM) after Episode 52, at Casa de Greg, Dearborn MI
    “The boys continue their discussion of the box set with disc three, “Bars”. But to be blunt, this one sucks. The microphones picked up a steady stream of GSM noise from our conference call with Mike; and, honestly, if you skip this one I, your humble description writer, would completely understand. (Return appearance by Cathy.)

    Here’s the second half of what we recorded in Greg’s basement. We had minimal phone noise then, but nothing but phone noise this time. The only difference is we called Mike the first time and Mike called us the second half. And, based on this minimal research, I would posit that receiving a phone call causes more interference than making one. Thank you for contributing to our lesson. Because of the interference I added a bit more noise reduction than usual, but the GSM noise remains omnipresent.
    Schmoe cleared up the confusion over the four questions with a revision, e-mailed the morning of October 9.

1) Review the new songs on the disc
B) What songs (3 or so) would you take off that CD?
3) What songs (3 or so) would you put in its place (from the time period the set covers)?
D) What songs (3 or so) released SINCE the boxed set would you put on that disc?

    09:12 – silly me, I thought Greg was implying the song had been used in a Rodney Dangerfield movie, not that the lyrics were the same as a title of a Rodney Dangerfield movie.  …And the name of the dive is the Triple Lindy.
    12:55James Jones on Wikipedia (my hesitation stemmed from fear of confusing Jones’s bibliography with Herman Wouk’s)
    13:33 – Mufasa’s line is “Remember who you are.”
    24:57 – another Arrested Development quote
    26:03 – at last, the story Greg merely hinted at three minutes into Episode 52.
    28:52 – speaking of Episode 52, Greg’s little comment was taken from the earlier show to make the transition to his wife reappearing. The joke was actually recorded before our second call with Mike, which explains why it is blessedly free of GSM interference.
    30:02 – please send your suggestions for heated, alcoholic, dairy-free drinks to podcast@northcoastcast.com.
