  • #35 - October 22, 2011
    No fancy title today, my mind was a little blanked.  A couple of notes for this episode before you listen: one, I was trying a new method of recording (that ended up being much less convoluted), so there are going to be a couple of hiccups here and there - especially at the beginning, where my voice is overpowered by the music.

  • #34 - New Format, Same Struggles
    Well, the debut of a new podcast format did not come without its stumbles. It's still very much a work in progress, and I can only improve from here. I apologize for the poor mic quality - that's also something I need to fix again.  Some great music this week though, so click away and listen!  Here are the show notes!

  • #33 - Factorable by 11
    It's been two weeks, so that means it's time for a new podcast! I normally get these up on the same Saturday that I record them, but events this weekend that may or may not have had something to do with watching Moneyball and baking an apple crumble served to interfere with those plans. In any case, here is your latest podcast! Savour it, because it may appear in a slightly different format two weeks from now (insert ominous chords here).

  • #32 - Back in the Habit
    I'm finally back with a new podcast!  It's been since the end of July since I released a new episode, and for that I am deeply sorry.  But the move is complete, and I have some brand new stuff for you.  Today I was just winging it a little, but I plan to put some more work into the blog and get some exciting things happening.

  • #31 - The Dog Days of Summer
    Your eyes are not lying! I'm going away this weekend, so I thought I would release the podcast a few days early.  It's a little long this time around, but since it's been three weeks since the last episode, I figured nobody will mind!  Some great music in there, starting off hard and fast and ending on a similarly strong note.  Except for one or two songs, everything in the podcast has been featured on the blog in the last three weeks.

  • #30 - Summertime
    Hopefully the fan I had on to cool down the "studio" didn't cause too much background noise. I had a fun time putting together this playlist, and listening as I recorded. I guess if you read the track listing, the "secret cover song" won't be so secret!

  • #43 - Valentine's Day / Hockey Day in Canada
    Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, so I picked out a few tracks that had that loving sort of feeling.  Also some disco songs.  PLUS I have some things to say about Hockey Day in Canada, which is today (February 11, 2012), starting at 2PM EST.  And finally, a return to the “cover song at the end of the podcast”.
