(download)

This episode features special guest host: Dave Brodbeck who podcasts at Tangential Convergence and can be found on Twitter @dbrobeck.

Heroes, heroes, husky men of war, sons of all the heroes, of the war before.
We're all heroes up to our ear o's,
You ask the questions, we make suggestions,
That's what we're heroes for.

All good heroes love a nifty fight,
Open up the bomb bays, brighten up the night.
We earn laurels solving your quarrels,
You throw the roses, we punch the noses,
That's what we're heroes for.

What's a hero do? We're never gonna tell ya
Cause we wish we knew.
That's why we heroes are so few.
We've got a slogan, from Colonel Hogan,
And Colonel Hogan's a hero too.

Never flinch, boys, never be afraid,
Heroes are not born, boys, heroes all are made.
Ask not why, boys, never say die, boys,
Answer the call, remember we'll all be heroes forever more.

Best Episode Ever 21 - Buck Rogers in the 25th Century

(download)

"In the year 1987, at the John F. Kennedy Space Center, NASA launched the last of America's deep space probes. The payload, perched on the nose cone of the massive rocket, was a one-man exploration vessel - Ranger 3. Aboard this compact starship, a lone astronaut - Captain William "Buck" Rogers - was to experience cosmic forces beyond all comprehension. An awesome brush with death: in the blink of an eye, his life support systems were frozen by temperatures beyond imagination. Ranger 3 was blown out of its planned trajectory into an orbit a thousand times more vast, an orbit which was to return the ship full circle to his point of origin - its mother Earth - not in 5 months, but in 500 years."

Hope you like the new podcast. Simple concept; me riffing on some retro television I loved while growing up. This week - the mighty WKRP!

When culture gets overinflated, yet refuses to pop, I want to be there with the needle. Enlightened cynics of the world unite! Express your love or hatred of things from the sacred to the mundane.

By the way, there's a good chance any podcast you listen to may have language not suitable for children. If you don't want to take a chance on hearing the occasional f-bomb, don't listen.
