Show Notes:
Recorded Wednesday, October 15 2008 (9:30 PM – 11:00 PM) at Zodiac Racquet Club, Southgate MI
“Schmoe & Mike’s concert-going adventures continue and Greg & Mike have new ‘Margaritaville’ verses. Special guest: Joda. Cameo by Jennifer.”
00:44 – with Government Honey being disbanded, Mike’s brother Jimmy (the singer of our theme song) has joined a new band called Mr Fabulous. A name he’s not too crazy about. Jimmy also still does his solo act, called The Jimmy Show.
01:00 – it sounds like Schmoe says “Flagellant Monkey” but the name I came up with was “Flatulent Monkey”.
I mean, come on. “Flagellant Monkey” is just plain silly.
01:07 – did we mention Greg likes monkeys?
01:35 – Old 97’s
01:43 – be like Mike: get the new Old 97’s album on iTunes. Or order if from Amazon
02:17 – Silky’s, at Kiernan’s Steakhouse
02:37 – St Andrew’s Hall, in Detroit
04:36 – famed luthier Chad Heckler
05:03 – Mason Jennings
06:14 – singer Doug Fieger, attorney Geoffrey Fieger, and “Dr Death” Jack Kevorkian
06:43 – lest we forget, Mike, Schnmoe, and Greg worked security for The Knack, as mentioned in Episode 61B
07:16 – Sunspots, sunspots, sunspots
09:08 – contest at Radio Margaritaville
09:23 – contest at Cheeseburger in Paradise
09:32 – CIP contest runs from October 15 to November 15
09:58 – order Nod to the Storyteller from Amazon
10:30 – a callback to Episode 65 (specifically, 40:40 in)
11:06 – a callback to the end of Episode 84
12:24 – a callback to our previous episode
14:37 – all these bacon references stem from a tangential conversation which, unfortunately for our purposes here, was deleted from Episode 78. But to make up for it, I present links to Bacon Salt, the item which started it all, and, your source for all things bacon, Bacon Today
15:46 – Mike quotes a comment from the RCPM discussion board, a comment first mentioned in Episode 38
15:51 – Mike comes dangerously close to plagiarizing a line from my lyric (from last week’s episode). I protested at the time, but I vainly deleted it from the show since I sounded so pissy
