American Cliche #111
It’s been a good week here. Kim and I are unpacked (mostly) from our move. We’ve bought more new $tuff for the hou$e than I thought wa$ po$$ible, but it definitely feels like home now. Things are settled in the new studio and I have tons of room to setup my gear and make it function like I always thought it should.
On a side note, we’re trying out an experiment with our friends over at Alterati.com. They’ve been kind enough to offer to syndicate the show. Hopefully we’ll be able to get a chunk of their audience into the AC Family. If you have a few minutes head on over and check out the site. It’s definitely more fringe than AC, but they have a gifted group of writers that have their finger on the pulse of alternative culture.
We’re coming up on the last official weekend of summer. With our brand-$pankin’-new BBQ grill, we’ll be enjoying the nice weather and the company of good friends. I hope you will all do the same.
This week’s show:
- Michael Vick Finds Jesus
- Mighty Minute
- Wife Cuts Off Husband’s Hand to Curb Internet Addiction
- Dirtbag of the Week: Senator Larry Craig
- Liquor Store Pumps in Aroma to Sell Beer

Hey Scott
I live in Halifax, and while that store is not my usual liquor store I will go there and let you know if I subliminally purchase stuff I usually don’t buy.
Keep up the great show!

I really liked the comments about the hypothetical situation where Kim removes a limb from you. It was hard to keep down my laughter at work. Have a fun long weekend!

Rob – Keep me posted on what you find.
Nick – Obviously Kim would never “de-limb” me, but it was a funny premise.

Hey Scott…excellent show.
I live in New Brunswick and always plan a labour day trip to Halifax—an absolutely beautiful city and my second favourite place in the world. Does anybody know which store it is that wafts scents into the aisles? I would love to find out and let you know how it affects me.

my grandmother always told me that only people who have respect for animals are really able to respect people- I think she was right. So- you really can consider yourself to be a very good person since you are very often paying attention to abused creatures . However, thanks for your compassionate and (of course) very entertaining show..
Many Greets from Germany,

hey Scott,
I heard Brian was going over to Santiago, chile… how exiting
! I actually am half Chilean and spent a few years of my life there. A actually recently returned from there. It is a very exiting country. i do recomend that he brush up on his spanish as chileans speak a bit fast. Santiago is like any metropolis. It is very polutted ,i would recomend that he escape to the beach which is a 2 hour bus ride round trip it cost about 10 USD. a popular beach city is Viña del mar. OH TRANSantiago (public transit) sucks, provided that you want to get any where fast and/or if you are claustraphobic. The metro is usually the cheapest efficant method to get around again if you are not claustraphobic. Make sure you know the exchange rate other wise people might rip you off. (1000 pesos is like 2 dollars)
When it comes to the party scene there is no shortage of clubs in Santiago, there are a few neighorhoods to check out. Plaza Nuñoa, Barrio Bellavista, Barrio Brazil, ave Providencia with Ave Suecia. I dont know how much time brian has because chile is a marvelous country to check out. There is sking and snow boarding this time of year and there are a few resorts a few hours out side of santiago. Id love to chat about it. go ahead an email me and i can put you give you my knowlage as well as put you in contact with some of my english speaking friends.
