Apparently, over a million people's anti-termination emails got dropped on the steps of Congress. Now, the hope is that the stations start pushing back on the CPB and continue to request funding for real journalism... gotta send an email to all my PBS/NPR stations now.<BR/><BR/>I certainly hope that you guys do see a bump in your listeners because of iTunes, especially once I start wearing my Jawbone art This n That shirt... which should show up today or tomorrow. I make a pretty big billboard, about 20 stone in a 5'8" frame makes for an American sized ad. I'm trying to become a smaller billboard, so I'll wear the shirt a lot while I make for a big visual. Eventually, the graphic may be a little scrunched, as the shirt starts to pleat around my ever-decreasing frame... hopefully.<BR/><BR/>Ohhh... before I sign off. On the Media - a NPR show - just did a funny skit about a new merged media of NBC and CNN called WWWA... or Where the White Women At? It's a station devoted to actively finding all the lost white women, talking about why white women get lost, having panels of men talking about great white women who've been lost in the past. Oh yeah, and they'll talk about lost white boy scouts.Brad P. from NJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12741097270661815555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10994240.post-1120076544490349732005-06-29T15:22:00.000-05:002005-06-29T15:22:00.000-05:00I can't believe a woman in Lincoln found a Mary-i...I can't believe a woman in Lincoln found a Mary-imaged corn flake and I didn't hear about it! In other news, I lost my keys. Is that newsworthy? Looks like the networks are not following TIPPO guidelines.<BR/><BR/>Hey guys! Great show, as always. I don't know what Nee Nee's talking about, but I'm up for a podcaster orgy, CA style, anytime. :P Also, I will be sending you some photographic evidence incriminating Big Bird in the tragedy that is Dannielle. I've actually met him...in person, or, person to bird, or however that works. I personally like PBS, because it carries the Red Green show.<BR/><BR/>Also, I have had personal, family experience with Provigil, and it is a good drug. It is given to cancer patients during chemo to help them with fatigue and concentration. I don't believe it specifically treats depression or anxiety, but helps a patient counter the side-effects of anti-depressant/anti-anxiety drugs (fatigue, lack of attention, awareness, etc), especially people treated with high doses for disorders such as OCD.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10994240.post-1120071025833473612005-06-29T13:50:00.000-05:002005-06-29T13:50:00.000-05:00bpende, I've been waiting 19 shows to use the word...bpende, I've been waiting 19 shows to use the word dichotomy.... next thing you know I'll be talking about scisms...and I will NOT let those terrorists win! lol<BR/><BR/>mmmmmmmmmmmm, patriotic dougnuts..

On the other hand, many or our subscribers (about 11% and growing) are moving to iTunes as their iPod reader.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07510745659619325735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10994240.post-1120064823968370252005-06-29T12:07:00.000-05:002005-06-29T12:07:00.000-05:00I've noticed PodcastAlley andipodder.org have both...I've noticed PodcastAlley and<BR/>ipodder.org have both been either<BR/>down for maintenance or very very<BR/>slow to respond over the last day or so.<BR/>I assume its down to the increase<BR/>in interest in podcasting that the<BR/>recent iTunes upgrade has brought.<BR/>Knowing that the This and That Podcast<BR/>was somewhere up there in the ratings<BR/>I wonder what effect iTunes may have<BR/>on its download numbers.<BR/>I hope you're not billed by bandwidth.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10994240.post-1120061324670502862005-06-29T11:08:00.000-05:002005-06-29T11:08:00.000-05:00Jeff, I didn't think it was too political.

If you do, "the terrorists win".<BR/><BR/>Pat, I just realized you may have connections in "the old country". So if you purchase a patriotic donut at 7-11, I'm willing say bygones. Don't cross me again though, or I may start referring to you as "that podcast gal".<BR/><BR/>Note to self: ask the word nerds if bygones with the 's' on the end is actually a word.

Do you mind if I use that for a ringtone?<BR/><BR/>Pat, I think you may have to call your mom and deny that you've slept with more people than Jeff... or any people for that matter. My guess would be that she may still have that white dress hiding out somewhere, hoping beyond hope.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for keeping up with the CPB story. I think the politicization is definitely a problem, but I think Jeff's point about how the argument happened is even better. I know that I pulled out the Cookie Monster card in my discussions, because I was trying to create a sound-bite for my discussions with people. I didn't think that people were ready to hear the arguments about journalistic integrity, rural access to information or reduced infotainment market dynamic stressors. Before my coffee in the morning, <I>I'm</I> not ready for those arguments.<BR/><BR/>Congrats on using <I>dichotomy</I> in your PodCast. I can now justify listening to anybody who asks... "Orgies, douching, murder and anti-Shrub propaganda?! How can you listen to them..."<BR/><BR/>"Well, they <I>did</I> properly use the word dichotomy..."<BR/><BR/>"Oh...

The Bush song was hilarious - and I'm not quite the Bush hater you two appear to be...I'm also down with anything making light of the cinematic atrocity that is "Gone with the Wind".<BR/><BR/>Pat - I'm glad you pointed out to Jeff that he was pronouncing "genre" like "johnner" or something like that. Jeff, take heart, having your own unique pronunciation of 1 word will not earn you the "speech impediment" label that I so shamefully bear.<BR/><BR/>Neil - I'm certain that Jeff and Pat are referring to an "Orgy of Intellect"...a meeting of the minds...a thinktank, so to speak. Although, if that is the case, I'm not quite certain why the astroglide Pat is suggesting is necessary.Ferghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06390942521840289789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10994240.post-1119907836618854352005-06-27T16:30:00.001-05:002005-06-27T16:30:00.001-05:00Jeff & Pat - looks like you've made some powerful ...Jeff & Pat - looks like you've made some powerful enemies in the White House.

Take that, CNN! Nice work!<BR/><BR/>On a totally different subject, I'm a little concerned about this "podcaster orgy" business.
