D&D - Feb 2, 2009

I had a planned post-Superbowl vacation day planned for today -- I didn't even get up until after the show ended, so I haven't even even listened to it yet. Hence no summary today, my apologizes. There's no "summary" at WCSX.com either, but here is a quick listing of the podcasts they have up:

1. Michael Burgi of Media Week called in to talk about the Super Bowl commercials!
2. Mike O’Hara football guru joined us to talk about the Super Bowl...errr and the Lions...but more importantly the Super Bowl!
3. The Amethyst Initiative is pushing for the drinking age to be lowered to 18...What do you think?
4. Deminski tried to use his wife’s credit card to buy a computer...Funny thing is they wouldn’t take the card...He had to drive all the way home and get her to buy it! Epic Fail!
5. A film is being made about Michigan Urban Legends...We talked about some of the more popular legends...

Here's today's show:

There's about a 30 second drop-out at around the 12 minute mark of Hour 4 -- my apologies again, my backup recording source had some computer issues and completely missed the show, so I didn't have any way to correct it. On that note, I am looking for some help for this site. My schedule will be filling up pretty soon, so I won't have quite the amount of time to devote here as I did in January. At the very least, the summaries will have to be cut unless someone else would like to take that over. Here's what I would also love to have some help with:

Tapers -- Extra "backup" tapers would definitely help, whether you're recording from the online stream or the FM signal. If you would like to help but don't have any recording software, let me know and I'll hook you up.

Editors -- The show is much easier to listen to if broken up into hour-long segments, and those stupid "We'll fix your credit score!" and "Your tap water will kill you!" Internet stream infomercials get annoying quick if they aren't pulled out. Just as above, if you don't have any audio editing software, I can hook you up here as well.

Uploaders -- Pretty well staffed here, but we may have a future need for someone else to stick the MP3 files on Sharebee.com or elsewhere.

Writers -- I don't know if anyone even reads the summaries I put on here, so they're not really that important, it's just something I do for fun. I'll probably have to cut them out soon, but if anyone else wants to take over, let me know. I also wouldn't mind giving other people access to the blog, to add their own posts or updates or even just to be a backup if I'm not available to type up every entry.

A few more advertisers -- looks like the percentage of infomercials on the stream is thankfully going down:

Jared (the jewelry store, not the Subway guy)
DICE.com ("Job Search for Technology Professionals")
Suburban Hockey - Midwinter Hockey Clinics
Children's Leukemia Foundation of Michigan - D&D Camp Out For Kids video on here
