So things have been a bit crazier than usual of late. Semester is in full swing and the long weekend meant lots of fun with the family and work on the Lair. I love doing demolition work, give me something and tell me to wreck it and I’m a happy guy. The problem with owning a house is that its also your job to build it back up again. So several projects started and a ton of energy expended. At the end of the day i’m left with a big pile of junk I happily destroyed and a swath of destruction which now begs to be fixed.

But neither here nor there, a thousand pardons for missing the past show but as you hear our weekend i hope you understand. We are gearing up for PodCamp Philly at work and lots of stuff is in motion. At the lair, or whats left of it we have a new resident in the lair itself. Iggy now lives next to the podstation so down here the studio the studio is teaming with life.

Today’s show has some love for beer, tea, coffee, college, specifics, and OS wars. How Much fun can we cram into one show. Why not stop by and see.

Enjoy the show!

For the next week i’ll be mostly offline, there should be a good deal of awesomeness built up in the archives and new shows dropping while I’m out to saite your thirst for Caffeinated goodness and Techy sweet treats. I’ll also be hosting the TPNW Show for the TechPodcast Network airing on Monday. So Its been a busy week of recording. I’m getting tired of my own voice again.

This time on TPNW I’ll be doing a short informative session on Podcasting Setups and Coffee Basics. Nice short and to the point.

Today’s Show:  Wildfires, Twestival, Fat, Vampires, Legos, robots,lasers, vodka,food, indulgence, charity

Times are tough which goes without saying. I hope that a couple of the links i have in today’s show can help some people out. There are wildfires in Australia, and tech companies are stretching to help, there is a worldwide search for clean drinking water, again Techs are trying to help. And there are many stories of talented people all over having trouble finding work. We highlight one such fantastic artist.

But all the serious stories need a bit of a counterpoint. The Apocalypse is a popular theme with some of the stories floating around the net. How would you like to go? Robots, Zombies, Vampires maybe? We have you covered either way.   That coupled with some of tastiest and nastiest food sights, and sites out there. Join us for a great episode packed with a ton of good stuff, funny links and Legos… who could ask for anything more!

The season is upon us and no matter which feast you are about to celebrate it can be a fun time of the year. We have an episode packed with conversation starters and did you know facts for sharing around the table at dinner. Why? you may ask? Well i ask why not, if you can’t be full of crazy scattered information then why start a conversation in the first place. This episode holds the keys to avoiding the holiday pitfalls of religion, politics, and items of a more carnal nature. Why not talk about tech instead, although some devotion to platform can reach a fervent level we try our best to keep tonight’s off kilter show as non biased as possible.

Enjoy the Episode!

Today’s Episode covers a wide range of topics some serious and I believe them to be compelling while others are just plain, and unapologetically stupid. I’m a firm believer in nonsense and i try o spread the word as much as possible. Great Caffeine and food news, and fantastic Technology tid bits as well
