Show Notes:
Recorded Wednesday, January 12 2011 (10:00 PM – 11:30 PM) at Zodiac Racquet Club, Southgate MI
“For the first show of 2011, we look at the top stories of 2010 and the concert roundup is from Portland. (Special guest: Michele. Cameos by Jennifer and Lee.)”
00:21 – unfortunately I cannot find this cell phone commercial anywhere online (and can’t even remember what company it was for).
02:28 – since the purpose of these entries is to share behind-the-scenes information, I might as well go ahead and admit her name is ██████.
06:33 – I’ve completely forgotten the story behind this, but Scott was referred to as “cherubic” by someone some time before recording, to Schmoe’s great delight
09:28 – I guess you could say I tangentially got something Buffetty for Christmas. I bought myself the John Lennon Signature Box, which includes Robert Greenidge playing on “Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy)”. (A connection I had planned to make during our John Lennon episode but, once again, forgot to do.)
09:36 – for Christmas, Mike bought all the podcast guys a bottle of M’ville spiced rum
11:43 – Scott’s sound file got accidentally deleted; and this potion was all I was able to restore off the SD card, using some newly bought recovery software.
13:36 – at the time, I was assuming our opening blather would not make the show
