A new episode means new links. Huzzah! Ian has dug up some interesting videos related to our most recent blab-fest. So here goes: First, we have a very intricate and entertaining recounting of Watergate, with which younger listeners may not be very familiar, except that it’s the reason that every single recent scandal has the
Hip hip hooray! The boys welcome in both the New Year and the Apocalypse. Thanks, 2012! Ian and Dave discuss the very real problems of the end of the world, zombies and poor zombie impersonations.

Ian will be appearing tonight and most Friday nights at Amuse Bouche, a charmingly intimate show featuring stand-up comedy without a mic. It really gives the performers a different venue and allows for a more relaxed act, often with more a conversational approach. It starts at 8PM at the quaintly named Slickety Jim’s Chat’n’Chew, which
Here it is! Episode 2 of Sneaky Dragon. This week, Dave seems to be confused and refers to radio and podcasting as a visual medium -not once, not twice, but THREE TIMES!!!
