Part 1: Host Guy Masse takes time for followers' questions and responds with some rather succinct answers - hopefully to your benefit - with as much gusto and informative content that he can muster. For questions that didn't make it on the show, we'll try to give them some air time on the next Q&A. This podcast - though short and sweet - is a harbinger to similar episodes in the upcoming months. Part 2: Boring COVID times demand a rearrangement of the rooms you live in. I demonstrate how to relocate a major sectional sofa to another wall in the living room with the least amount of disruption. Empower yourself with the tools of room reinvention.

The phrase hook works all the time - establishing a rhythm to your podcast. Make your message clear as a bell and you'll discover there is a joy in this technogical medium. Whether you're hiking in the woods or at work, find inspiration in everything you do - when it comes to sharing your information with others. As a demonstration, I used poetic form at the beginning of this segment. I attempted to illustrate the full range and dynamics and it's easy to do. The formats can include discussion, panoply, poem, banter. They all work and it's simple if you just let yourself do it. There are great podcast tools out there to create your very own world of information and dissemination in an entertaining way.

Dateline Appian Way, Rome (via road to Ostia) - Pilgrims make their way to a nearby town en route to the biannual "Bazaar Populari" when out of nowhere a major interruption occurs to the northeast... distant Mount Vesuvius spews its bilious ash of gaseous cinder with the potential to engulf the entire planet. Remember, it's only a play. We can rely on poetic license to make this mountain cascade a slinky sin upon the already decadent row that is the Appian Way. The vendors we're first to topple over all of humanity in a feeble attempt to get back south of the explosion. You've heard the rumblings about the show on previous podcasts but host Guy Masse invites you to join in the frenzy. Coming in October - not too soon enough!

The columns and obelisks of Rome are haphazardly preserved with a time-worn patina to the eternal gods. Guy Masse presents another saga - this one west of the Old West. Although Rome's many provinces offer a striking panoply, this program is set in and around the Appian Way - a major commerce route to and from the city. The slinking thoroughfare offers a dramatic backdrop and the emperor is nowhere to be found in the grimy, cruddy, disgusting tracts beyond. Never before has there been an offering that unfolds through the radio tubes and into your home like this one. Join us on Claudia's row as you eat your grapes accubatio (chaise lounge). The taster and domestic help surround you in servitude. As if that weren't enough, the debut of the insightful PsychoNalysis podcast examines the subconscious as you trudge on this planet - before you try to get a grip on your personality and your communication with others. Slated to air mid-August.

God allows decoration and simplicity. Take cathedrals and monasteries, for example. He preordained humankind into existence only a short time ago on the scale of the eternal celestial display. Unimaginable is our own power to see oneself - by looking inward, and observing that we either don't care or are overwhelmed (love itself is in the music and in the chimes). From the bank robber taking his place in line like a willing participant - to the child being punished in the corner with the surround sound cries aching with misery. Existence doesn't have to suck. Another in a series.

From the kick'm 'back Buckles Branigan saga to our preview of the upcoming AD-13 Ancient Rome street drama, the July review is hand-picked and lovingly hewned for your entertainment. This month I happily presented storms stewing, snows snuffing, stereo hookup, fireworks flaring and meditations meandering - not to mention Pierre and Claude offering thier own informative interviews. There is much more packed into this patriotic month for your perusal and entertainment.

Back in the sixties, the ad launched with the three-martini lunch... and the client's rather large budget. The account executive and creative director hobbled back with their marching orders - to create a campaign - print, TV and direct mail. I review pre- and post- Madison Avenue communications in this rather informative podcast. The lush and lavish poster played its persuasive role as well. Billboards were economy of scale as you rode down the thoroughfare. And the stat camera took up a whole darkroom. Act now you're guaranteed an entertaining journey through one of America's biggest industries... HURRY IN!... supplies are limited.

The Native American-head test pattern serves as a prelude to the compact western dramas, comedy and variety shows during the fifties and sixties. The concise exposition of programs like "The Virginian" served as virtual bellwethers to the era. Guy Masse introduces a new, fun approach to an old genre of the sidewinding sagas. From The writer's pen to the producer's promise to the marketer's message, the glory days of television were cast upon us. It's time to relax from your long and dusty commute home from the workplace and seek shelter under the canopy of nighttime TV offerings. He parlays his film experience through short scenes from such presentations as you lounge and lip-sync the great performers before you.

Guy and our own Buckles Branigan serve up a somewhat descriptive rundown trough scenes from "The Rifleman". Our television star is left to perish in a mirage-ridden-south-of-the-border desert until our hero is saved by local Mexicali and brought into la casa for recuperation courtesy the bedside aid of la chica para residente... but not before the varmints track him down. Our in-studio guests take it all apart bit-by-bit... bringing you into the action. It's mid-century TV western drama in a neat, multi-dimensional fashion... with a little fun and spice added to the mix. So grab the popcorn from the radarrange and sit back for a romping adventure! Martin Landau guest stars.

I take my portable studio this beautiful a.m. to my brother Pierre's backyard - surrounded by hostas in this part of Warwick. The distant traffic - not overtaking the birds chirping - and a lonely dogwood - which still sleeps in the early morning glow is evident. A runner jogs with dog not in tow... he's still sleeping in his corner of the bedroom. A slender, monk-garmented Saint Francis stands by the birdbath and gazes upon the Weber grill which performed double-duty only two nights prior. I relish lounging on the chaise. I like knowing the day has yet to unfold and I can still rest one-quarter dazed in my little dreamscape I experienced the night before. Can you hear the birds? They seized their song for an instant... and the coneflower stands pert and pretty.
