Waiting Here for Everyman - 2 - Chris Grandy

In this episode, I interview one of my oldest friends, Chris Grandy.  Born and raised in the suburbs of Columbus, Ohio, Chris was active for the better part of a decade in the local music scene.  Around a year ago, he moved to Seatle, where he’s still figuring things out.

War And Beast Bonus episode 9: The Wrong Kind of Hawk

I hosted this week's War and Beast, since Greg was out of town or something.  We reviewed the second part of the Animorphs pilot episode.  Honestly, relative to how excited I was about the first episode, this one was a little underwhelming.  It's great that they emphasized how grotesque the morphing sequences were, but it did take a lot of time.  I can understand why they expedited the process as the series went on.

Anyway, you can find the episode on audioentropy.com as always.

Waiting Here For Everyman - 1 - Alex Burgoyne

For a while I've been wanting to start a podcast where I interview regular people about the music in their lives, ranging from hobbyists to professionals.  I finally decided to pull the trigger and had the opportunity to interview Alex Burgoyne, an accomplished saxophone player and smart guy.  Here are some links to some of his projects:

Peter Parker Pull List 8-10

Every time I listen to the Pull List to edit it, I'm really happy with how deep Jared and I go discussing and reviewing the books we've been reading.  Basically, when I do War and Beast, a lot of times I'm either super negative or uninformed, but I actually know things about comics.

Anyway, here's this month's episode.

War and Beast 48: The Big Chalk Theory

This was a fun episode, both of the podcast and the show.  We develop a crazy head canon about how Cheetor is Optimus's substitute teacher and Rattrap doesn't understand simple machines.  Also, Una is a weirdly compelling and resourceful character in the episode.  As the resident hater on the podcast, I really like this episode.  Greg doesn't, but that's okay.

Check out the episode on AudioEntropy.com!

Technodrome Tales 10: The Mean Machines

Oh, and before I forget, here's the most recent episode of Technodrome Tales.  It was a middle of the road episode that had its moments.  Also, we'll formally be taking a break from Technodrome Tales while Brad does something Halloween related on his other podcast and I work on my Christmas album.  We'll be back just in time for my 30th birthday and for War and Beast to start Beast Machines, assuming scheduling goes as planned.

War and Beast Update

Hey guys, I know I haven't been posting the latest episodes of War and Beast... or much of anything lately... Let's just say I've had some recent changes in my routine that mean I need to figure out when I'm going to blog.  Hopefully I'll be better going forward.  Meanwhile, check out recent episodes about Cheetor going through puberty, Greg accidentally watching Star Trek, an anatomically correct Black Arachnia, and something we recorded a long time ago that I have no memory of.
