Back in 2005, I was VP for a TV music production company called Ben Vaughn Productions and my boss was producing an album for a very talented local artist who went by the nickname of Schmedly or just Schmed. I recently found these unmastered tracks from the project, which at the time had the title of "The Electrolites" (yes, spelled that way). I have no idea whatever happened to this album, but I thought I'd share a couple of my favorite tracks from it... Enjoy!

UPDATE: By complete coincidence, I stumbled across a band on Apple Music called SECRET POWERS and I recognized the singer's voice right away. Looked it up and yup, it's Ryan "Schmedly" Manes' band and he re-recorded a bunch of the songs from the Electrolites project across several albums. Doesn't look like they've added any new material since 2014, but at least its good to know that, at least as of a few years ago, Schmed is alive!

You asked, I relented. Shadow Falls: Badlands, the 2007 serialized audiobook sequel to my 2006 audio drama Shadow Falls, has been offline for years. Allow me to explain, followed by the first half of the prologue from the original recording.

There is nothing that rankles my coin purse more than stupidity. And today, more than ever, stupidity is inescapable. For example, this stupid podcast.

A classic moment from PCH 426. (Oct. 26, 2007), when Mike tells the story of how a drunken party at the age of 17 led to him doing the dirty with a friend's hot mom. For some reason, this episode crossed my mind a few days go so I wanted to share this.

Dogs don't fucking care about sweaters. If you're some L.A. asshat who puts a cute sweater on your dog, I hate you and you need help. Oh, and another classic PCH moment.

Stuffing our faces until we puke... for sport. Is this the pinnacle of human achievement? Let's celebrate the idiocy known far and wide as competitive eating. Oh, and a killer tune from Kevin Reeves.

Sean Zaidman hit me up on Twitter to ask where he could find my original Shadow Falls audio drama, so I got off my lazy ass and dug up those old files from 2006. Here's the first episode.

Yup, nothing like exploiting your kids like prize pigs at the county fair to make up for you not being voted prom queen. Fuck you, pageant parents.
