Vertically Striped Radio - Episode 107 - 04-30-11

The end of the world as we know it has apparently been scheduled for three weeks from now, yet Vertically Striped Radio feels fine...Episode 107 had the VSR gang discussing all manner of topics. The folly of NFL draft coverage, the fact that John Gruden loves everybody, the mailing habits of drug smugglers, houses that call 911 all by themselves, and the relative velocity of the Millenium Falcoln. (In the name of full disclosure, I was wrong about it's actual speed...It made the kessel run in less than 12 parsecs) 


We also planned Craig's funeral, with some slightly non-traditional choices...although we did decide against releasing deadly snakes. The Week in Wankery had a beloved contributor in it's cross-hairs for crimes against the City of Denver.

We decided that the next He-Man Movie Watchers Club meeting would be in two weeks, and that the boys would be discussing "The Damned United." The Vertically Striped Music Recommendation was "Hang On" by Dr. Dog.


Many thanks to The Whale, Face Ventura, and Elevation for popping in to chat with Craig, and a special thanks to Craig's brother Bruce for sitting in  for a few minutes for the first time in ages.

In the midst of Pens/Lighning Game 7, we discussed the rest of the goings-on in the NHL playoffs. Cousin Brandon stopped by to talk about the "love" he has for his students. The Ed was, well, The Ed. And we finished up with a little bit of this and that.

Vertically Striped Radio - Episode 106 - 04-23-11

Craig, Face, and the Whale were all on hand for an odd but fun edition of VSR. We laid out the platform for the newly reformed (by us) Whig Party with a Magnificent Seven list which put forth the Top 7 Planks of the Whig platform. We had a curious edition of "Something to Think About" and we took a look into the oddly Hebrew world of Shalom Seasame, the Jewish version of Seasame Street. No, really.


 We finished up all of that silliness with a look at the Phallological Museum of Iceland and it's newest exhibit. And yes, that is what you think it is. After a bit of trying to stumble upon the next movie for the He-Man Movie Watchers club, we were just about to call it a day when The Ed showed up and blessed us with about 25 minutes of classic The Ed comedy. The Ed is a great guy, but not what I would describe as easy to get off of the phone.


After finally forcibly extracting Mr. Miller from the phone, we closed up with a Vertically Striped Music recommendation of "Down in the Valley" from the self titled album from The Head and the Heart. In my humble opinion, this was the best VSR in some time...I guess we were due.

We started off the show talking the NHL playoffs until The Ed called in. The Ed updated everyone on the condition of his health, did his own conspiracy segment on Norm Macdonald and tried to explain why child support is a scam.
The second hour found longtime show favorite Pat Picciarelli discussing his new movie project, "The Shield", his eating habits, and the Manson family.
