Show Notes:
Recorded Wednesday, May 24 2008 (6:00 PM – 12:00 AM) at Casa de Schmoe, Dearborn MI
“A bonus podcast, recorded at Casa de Schmoe. The boys rehash the headlines, review Swine Not?, take another look at fantasy setlists, and learn something disturbing about Greg. (Background vocals by Schmoe’s & Mike’s kids and Cathy.)”
Our first podcast with a teaser trailer! Catch Scott’s lame-ass RSVP as it comes in!…
I’m chagrined to admit this episode was delayed by several hours because I could not come up with a name! And embarrassed even more that after all that time, this was the best I could come up with. Alternate titles included “The Pit and the Porcus” (get it? an Edgar Alan Poe reference — zing! kerpow!), “Eine Schweine Nachtarmpit” (Mozart! pwned!), and “Days of Swine and Setlists” (Blake Edwards! the hits just keep on coming!). In the end, as you can see, I gave up trying, feeling it was more important to just upload the danged thing.
00:24 – Greg has obviously blocked the end of Episode 38 from his mind.
00:40 – the reason those clinks don’t sound like our usual Landshark clinks is because Schmoe had served us Frugal Margaritas in tumblers
01:07 – I know it’s hard to believe, but that comment was truly unintentional
01:19 – the occasional thumps in the left speaker are the Schmoe’s and Mike’s kids playing basketball outside
03:45 – Buffett World’s write-ups of Charlotte and Jazz Fest
06:24 – Amazon’s Swine Not? listing
07:47 – that’s what we call foreshadowing
08:49 – and that’s what they call playing along
09:59 – seeing as I’m writing these notes a month later, I can now state that Jimmy’s appearance is actually on disc 7
10:17 – Amazon link for Sonny Landreth’s new From the Reach album
10:30 – the sample of “Howlin’ Moon” on iTunes … which, although iTunes Plus, costs 99ยข (by the way) and not $1.29
10:44 – Wikipedia says Dr John was born in 1940
10:51 – Jimmy’s “Late Show Web Exclusive” performance at CBS.com
13:15 – Scenes You Know By Heart at Mailboat Records
15:07 – can you make out the narration by our robot overlords? If not, it goes like this: “But first a word of explanation. It was at this time the recording was paused briefly while the boys watched the three interviews. During the Regis interview, Greg caught everyone by surprise when he blurted out that he wanted to sniff Kelly Ripa’s armpit, presumably because she was still wearing a workout outfit from a previous segment. This was such an unexpected and verging on downright creepy glimpse into Greg’s personal peccadilloes that the boys of course had to make mention of it for the rest of the night. And now, back to the podcast.”
19:05 – imagine Schmoe with fists in the air. Then imagine the effect this has on Greg.
20:00 – the Swine Not? listing at Barnes & Noble
22:52 – “Gardening at Night” off R.E.M.’s 1982 EP Chronic Town
23:33 – and now, Listener Ed’s setlist, as originally e-mailed to us way back on February 17
