Sickness at the Ponderplace

April and I are sick...hence the lack of a podcast. We have this nasty cold/sinus thing that wipes you out and just leaves you feeling sore from the waist down. We have some great stuff though for the next podcast which we're looking to do probably Thursday. Sorry for the missing of a podcast. Thanks a bunch!

He sits in with us for some crazy news, some talk about driver's liscense's horrific animal references, and then we all get in the mood for having a atomic fireball eating contest with Richard Vobes by having a "Atomic Warhead" eating adventure.

A little info

Hey everyone, Couple things of interest. As you all probably know Podcast Alley has changed the voting method once again. So we'd appreciate a vote their if you get a moment. We're holding steady around number 19 of all podcasts. As you may have noticed the voting link on this page is no long working due to the changes at podcast alley. There is also a new voting type website Pod Tower which does a similar voting thing. We'd appreciate any votes you could spare there as well. I have to admit though I think this voting craze is just way the hell out of control. I mean this whole competition is predominantly bad for podcasting I think. Trying to stay in the top whatever really leads itself to sophmoric behavior and grudges being developed among the podcasting community. I hope that the podcasting community can continue to band together to help facilitate the growth of Podcasting in General. I believe I have fixed the listener world map (link on the right column "show us where you are in the world") So please take a moment to post your world position yet again. I'd also like to remind everyone of the new 2 gmail invite giveaway contest we have going. All you have to do is submit a crazy photo be it via your camera phone or digital camera to our text america moblog. Submit the picture on your camera phone or via email by sending it to ponderplace.podcast@textamerica.com We'll let this contest go for a while so people can enter in at their own pace. Good luck. Thanks so much to everyone for listening and for all the support. Remember you're not just listeners, you're all friends!

Hey everybody thanks for the kind words and the congrats for breaking into the Podcast Alley top 50 podcasts(www.podcastalley.com). We totally had all intentions of doing a podcast on March 2nd. We sat down to do it and my powerbook wouldn't wake up. Now keep in mind i don't use the powerbook to record, however April uses it for the news stories and whatnot. So rather then recording the show I spent the next several hours trying to get the powerbook to wake up....unsuccessfully. I'm not to worried about it, I'll probably just wait for the battery to completely die and see what happens when I recharge, if all else fails, I'm still under warranty so. Expect a podcast tonight to make up for last night. I have some extra time to perfect a rant about ducks in today's society. Thanks for the vote on podcast alley and keep those comments comming. Buh-Bye!

Tonight we catch up on some odd californian style crazy news, we talk about this and talk about that, then we dive deep into a knock down drag out debate/rant over why cosmopolitan magazine is so full of crap. We ease the Tensions with a little Syd with the song "Back Home" a ponderplace favorite. Sit back and enjoy.
