  • Broken Area - Episode 186 - Earlierist
    So, tomorrow, which is our normal shopping and recording time, Isabelle is making a drum.  So, we went today, Friday.
    I took the bus down to where her studio space is, at 180 Projects.  You can see a picture of her on the left there.  
    So, what are the demographics of Friday shopping?  It skews old, and slow.
    An artist Isabelle is into is coming to town next week, so that's pretty exciting.
    We've been watching The Orville, which we like, Star Trek: Discovery, which we like, and, The Leftovers, which we like but find disturbing.
    Jon's a big Greyhounds fan, and can't miss a pregame show.

  • Broken Area - Episode 185 - Old Agenog
    First off, eye update.  95 percent.
    Our fridge is full of bottles of various sauces.  I culled the herd today.  As an aside, I don't trust people who don't have crowded fridges.
    The eggnog is supposed to be there, it is supposed to age.  Really.  That picture there is from an article on Serious Eats where they aged egg nog.  
    Hey, it's our Thanksgiving episode!  Hard to know if I'll do the turkey tomorrow or the next day.
    Isabelle is getting on fine setting up her studio space.  She has tools, she goes to Home Depot.  I go grocery shopping.  21st century people we are.

  • Broken Area - Episode 184 - Chunky Reds
    Now it's winter.  OK, I exaggerate a bit.  However, unlike last week when it was literally over 30, it was 0 when we got up.
    Eye update, 80 percent better, I can now read out of my left eye.
    Isabelle is building a workbench at her new studio space.  The guy who is helping her is, apparently, Marc Maron.
    I wonder why she got all of her messages at once?
    Hey, we got a box!
    Isabelle is working very hard at her new job, and that's awesome.

  • Broken Area - Episode 183 - One Lonely Bagel
    Hey, we're back!
    In the 'will these people ever get better' file, Jon is much better and back to school, Isabelle is close to normal, though her ribs still hurt from coughing and me,, well, my eye is getting slowly better.  But, better enough that we could record today!
    Hey, Isabelle is getting studio space!  So that's cool.
    Isabelle found an LCBO gift card in the car.  So, we used it.
    I'm happy to be back teaching, but I really also miss people, especially yelling at my buddy Paul.
