I'm half-way through the book Vagabonding by Rolf Potts. I just finished reading about giving up on buying all the fun stuff you want, in exchange for having more time to do what matters. All us old people have heard that our whole life, and yet I am strangely inspired.

I revisit a story that hasn't been told in almost 20 years. The time I was asked to audition for one of my favorite metal bands. This would have meant recording albums and touring and seeing the world. There was only one catch: they were a Christian Metal Band and I wasn't a Christian anymore. How enticed was I to fake it for a few years of quick adventure? Did I look to the past or look to the future? Woo lawd, this is a good one!

Follow the breaking news from the bushes across from Carter Estate. And also talk about all the albums that came out within a few months that defined what your parents listen to. Can The Governor remember what number Brrtcast this is? Tune in and find out!

Musings on what might happen. No preparation. This time I just spoke from the heart.

This is the story of the rock album I wrote and recorded as a solo band called The Meh. It was totally shut down because of Covid, and not because I am a quitter. Where did you get that idea from?

What posses a fool to write and record a solo album? What are the songs about, how were they written, and hob bad can putting an album into a podcast really sound?

The album is available on Apple Music, Google Music, and for download if you are into the whole mp3 thing.

You may not believe this, but sometimes even the news papers get it wrong. Near-Governor Nick reads (badly) from a Canadian newspaper reporting the latest deets on the sinking, as they were available the day after the sinking. Spoiler alert, Jack makes it off the Titanic and enjoys a pleasant, if not less luxurious, trip to Halifax before he takes a train down to New York. The fairly awkward news not reported is that Rose and Jack ended up sharing the same train car as Rose's fiance, unimaginable bastard Cal. Is it too soon to talk about Titanic? Tune in and fine out.

Remember that time Nick talked about being told what bands he shouldn't like? It wasn't good. It wasn't classy. Also, the inventor of Brrt joins for a moment to demonstrate proper pronunciation - along with a savory joke.

It's August 8th 2022, and how are you? I'm fine, thanks for asking. I applied for a certificate program at the local UC school, and I watched the penultimate episode of Better Call Saul. Find out what I thought about it, with minimal swearing and only promotional audio from the clip so nobody has to worry about copyright issues. Especially me.

What is The Governor up to today? It's podcast day! See if anyone joined the live stream to chat it up! (Spoiler: No)
