Let a Professional Do It
When I posted this, the phrase “insert in post” caught my eye.
Visions of vienna sausages and baby mice fill my mind
As we learned from the podcast I did for the Large Penis Support Group I am well endowed. I have always heard of there being a race of men who have extremely tiny penii but never really took those stories at face value. Let me tell you something. This may scare you…. It is absolutely true. Horrible and awful and true. Oh, my damned eyes! Why have I clicked the links? Was it curiosity or do I just hate myself that much. Visions of vienna sausages and baby mice fill my mind. Luckily for you I went there so you don’t have to. All you have to do is listen to the nonsense that people at MyTinyDick.Net talk about. I warn you, there will be acronyms you’ve never heard of. Like SPH and SPG. These stand for Small Penis Humiliation & Small Penis Glorification. I think if you went to this site your natural inclination would be towards SPE (Small Penis Eradication.) That may sound harsh but I think we’d all be better off….
Plus podcast.

A Life Well Wasted
I almost universally hate podcasts since they mostly suck, but what Robert Ashley does by manipulating voice and sound in contextually appropriate ways does not.
Sun Ra Meets Napoleon
Over the winter of 2004-2005, the Philadelphia-based Slought Foundation sponsored an exhibition titled “Sun Ra Meets Napoleon: Fragments of the Alter-Future”. In conjunction with the exhibition, a 1990 recording of Sun Ra in conversation with jazz critic Francis Davis was released.

Destruction Sounds
I’ve just capped off my radio show which will air tomorrow, June 28 from 7-9pm on Free103.9. It’s a two hour show on destruction. Tune in, if you can think you can handle listening to the darkest most scuzzy soundscape show ever recorded in history. If you’re unavailable at that time or radio frequency to break your ears, the show will be available on the show page for later ruination. Grraaawwwhhhhhhrrrrr!
Nora Young interviews Jason Kottke
Spark has posted an unedited interview with Jason Kottke:
It’s people like Jason Kottke that help us decide what is and what isn’t worth reading on the Web. He’s been publishing his suggested content at Kottke.org since 1998, and has been doing it professionally, full-time, since 2005. Since he’s getting pretty good at playing tastemaker for tens of thousands of Internet users, we pulled him into studio to ask him how he feels about playing digital curator.
At the end of interview Jason gives a short list of favorite blogs and is kind enough to put clusterflock next to a few of my favorite as well: Marginal Revolution, Waxy.org, and Hacker News.
YLNT
John Hodgman and Jonathan Coulton are both on the latest episode of the incessantly hilarious You Look Nice Today podcast, answering some of the burning questions of the age:
- Why is Kevin Bacon famously uncomfortable around FAX machines?
- How does Adam save the world by not wearing shoes?
- What are the slam poet’s secret romantic techniques?
- Why are short films so long? Or vice versa?
- Why do alfalfa farmers know so much about the Renaissance?
- What food is best eaten deep-fried?
For the unintiated, YLNT, is produced by Adam Lisagor, Scott Simpson, and Merlin Mann.
East Village Radio
This weekend I met some friends at a party for East Village Radio at the South Street Seaport. To be honest, my motivations were more for the seaport than the party, but I headed my way down there with the hopes of a VIP pass (read free beer) and a good view of the fading light over shipmasts. It turned out to be a wicked party hosted by KRS-One and featuring a bunch of other amazing talent. Maybe someday soon, I’ll write some posts about the talent. But here I want to give a big ups to East Village Radio. The party was awesome and they put together a pretty great service. They are a free, internet only independent radio station operating out of a storefront closet in Manhattan. One of the few signs of anti-conglomeration media floating in the ether.
I am podcast illiterate.
Can anyone suggest some bangin’ podcasts, you know, ones that really turn on the Heat? I am due for a long day of travel on Friday and need something more than a book to keep me going.
Ricky Gervais
For those of you who are familiar with the brilliant Mr. Ricky Gervais I would like to point out the popularity of his podcast. For those unfamiliar with the brilliant Mr. Ricky Gervais, I should point you to The Office and Extras, two of the best shows ever to have appeared on television (in my opinion). (The American version of The Office is quite brilliant as well, staring the also delightful Mr. Steve Carell.) Here is a brief description of his podcasts:
It’s the second helping of bunkum from Ricky Gervais and Steve Merchant, co-creators of The Office and Extras. Join them as they trawl the shallow depths of the mind of their co-host Karl Pilkington, a man with the critical faculties of a creationist.
