    Fredericks Mind Thing- The Show Returns
     
     

    Hey there gang, I am back!             Mike's Skype Thing is over.  

     
     After a year long hiatus you'd assume I have tons of backlogged material.        You'd be right.  
     
    I did, until the crash of 2014.         
     
    So here, I salvage some stuff off my old recorder and acquaint myself with the new GarageBand (I don't really care for it).

  • Season Of The Glitch
    Technology fails me again. All is lost. But, I'll keep going.

    Mike's Skype Thing is ending.        Deseated Ram stick.        Ambivalence toward technology.      Death of a podcast.
    Perhaps, memory is not supposed to last.        Message erased.

  • The Jungian Switch
    Despite my starting out of the tent (fort), this episode recovers and leads us careening through a variety of subjects. Florida makes several appearances and Mike and Spike bring the smut. We, verbally, visit the Middle East, Massa's and the back room of the Best Show. Foreshortened due to a glitch in my new mp3 converter. "I don't care, you win some; you lose some."

    Out of the tent (it's a fort!).       Natural law.       James Mellon: Tax avoider.     Florida murder talk.     The Mush.        Florida's governors race.
    Standardized education scam.      Who's making the money?           New World Order.        Bobcat talk.       Selling weapons.
    New Port Richey,     The porn industry is going south.       Spike goes to the museum.     Magical Misery Tour.     Massa's movie talk.
    The Jungian switch.        Cronenberg movies.     Smutty type stuff.      Stan sounds like a damaged robot.    
    Some people need to be murdered.                        Best Show talk (off the record).

    Fredericks’ failed joke.         Why would you

    listen to this?      

     

     The bottle

    rocket that broke the camel’s spine.
