The festival is going strong. I’m having a lot of fun, but I’m exhausted. I think you’ll notice and find me a bit punchy in this show.

Here’s the rest:

I am in fullblown film festival mode. The team and I have been working hard to hammar out all the last minute details. In addition I have been foaming at the mouth this week over the announcement of the [...]

As many of you know I am a big fan of music and specifically the Coachella festival outside Palm Springs California. This year the festival has been expanded to three days from its usual two. I have attended the last two years and expect to go again this year. Of the lineup announced thus far, [...]

This weekend will be the last chance I get to relax for the next two weeks. In addition to my fulltime gig and various podcast/radio projects, I will also be working on the Santa Barbara International Film Festival Podcast team. Starting Thursday I will be up to my eyeballs in film screenings, celebrities, parties, and [...]

I’m doing much better this week. My blood has returned to it’s usual simmer (down from a raging boil last week). It’s been a good week actually. Kim and I had a nice mellow weekend and got to watch [...]

About a month back I started my search for some new earphones to use with my iPod. I have a full set of cans [...]

My god, this was a shitty ordeal. It took me five times to get this stupid thing right. Between software crashes, wrong settings and me being unable to function like a human, this ordeal went on and on and [...]

I need a Skyscraper 120×600 banner in either GIF, JPG, or SWF format. It can be anything you like concept-wise, but I need it by January 18th. Send me your best banner for American Cliche and if I use it, I’ll give you (or your website, band, podcast, etc.) a shout on the show and [...]

I seldom cross-pimp my shows. I should probably do more of it, but I just forget. Anyway, I wanted to let you all know about a really different 8BallRadio Rewind show I released yesterday. It features Daft Punk’s entire performance from last year’s Coachella festival. If you’re not a fan of Daft Punk, or electronic [...]
