This is one of the best jokes that I think I wrote. Which considering it’s all about making fun of me it makes sense.
Again I was having FAR FAR too much fun with my fonts.
Enjoy.

So what the hell is going on in Austin?
– December 29, 2011Posted in: SpankBlog
First off, I must apologize for the lack of a show on 12/17. We ran into some scheduling problems that left us with a lack of people for the show itself, so unfortunately we had to cancel.
With that, there actually won’t be a live show from us for the next few weeks. There are good reasons for that, however:
1) We’re going to go hang out with people outside of the Internet for New Years Eve. Yes, we do have real life friends!
2) Brue and I will be traveling to MAGFest – Music and Gaming Festival for the weekend of January 5-8th. If you like video game music or chiptunes, then you will definitely want to keep an eye on the Wagon!
So while we may be out of the loop for a bit, don’t think we’re just sitting around getting drunk. We have some interesting ideas we’re looking to try in the new year, so you can look forward to that. And the Vegas and Seattle teams will still be putting out some awesome stuff, so you’ll never be without us!
Have a safe New Year and hop on the Wagon as we ride into 2012!

IT’S BOOTIE TIME!!!! IT’S BOOTIE TIME!!!
– December 27, 2011Posted in: SpankBlog
For those in the know I don’t have to remind you how much I love Mashups. One question I get asked is how do I find these things. Here is the simple answer. 
Best of Bootie. The yearly compliation of mashups from several artists. Including some of my favorites like Lobsterdust, AplusD, and an appearance from early mashup artist djBC. This years collection is amazing. There are some very pleasant surprises in amongst the tracks and I am eternally grateful that they did not abuse the mash-ability of LMFAO or Foster the People. Which based on radio play alone could have been an easy target for overuse. Also not a lot of Dubstep in this album which for this genre I appreciate because Dubstep could have taken over the album and I feel it could have taken away from the overall art that is Mashups.
Well, time for you to go and download the album.

Trencher’s Bookmarks
– December 26, 2011Posted in: SpankBlog
Something I have not done in a long while is share some of the pages and bookmarks that I have found and felt like sharing. Let’s take a look at all the stuff I have bumbled across online.

This is a nice little tweak that allows me to see what is playing. For me it’s not too intrusive and it works for net radio too!

Cory Doctorow is ahead of his time! You should read his book Little Brother just to realize how creepy it is.

Huh, I thought I had more to share this time. Well, have you read anything interesting that you would like to share?

Classic SWR : 2002-03-10 Bad Food
– December 25, 2011Posted in: Spankwagon Media Network
The upside of having gigs and gigs of old Spankwagon Episodes is that I can slowly review and upload them and have us all see the evolution of SWR.
Here is one of the earliest that I have recorded from 2002 where Claude and I decided to partake in some “Bad Food”

The other opinion on SOPA and PIPA
– December 20, 2011Posted in: SpankBlog
I think I can safely say that SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and PIPA (Protect Intellectual Property Act) are bad laws that don’t correct the issue they are aiming for, but rather work to set back the clock on technology and have us get stuck behind our own “Great Firewall”. I do not think I can properly argue or discuss how laws like this are horrible, but I know that I can forward you to someone who can, Leo Leporte. Leo is one of the most prolific broadcasters and tech pundits that have been around. Well, this past week his podcast TWIT discussed the bills and surprisingly not all of his guests were in agreement. Listen in to see some other opinions about the proposed laws.
