Morning/afternoon, soldiers - I've discovered another podcast I can recommend for all you newly converted podcast addicts: the Dawn and Drew Show. This is one of the most wildly popular podcasts on the net - their message board has like 40,000 active users or some crazy shit like that. That's one of the cool things about this podcast universe - there are huge stars in it that no one has ever fucking heard of outside the podcast community. It's weird.
Like most podcasts out there, the Dawn and Drew Show is basically just two people talking about their lives and goofing around. If the prospect of spending a half hour of your day listening to such a show compels you to gouge your eyes out with a rusty tire iron, I completely feel you. Honestly, there are a lot of boring and crazy people out there with podcasts. As much as I'm excited about the potential possibilities of the podcast world, 98.7245% of the shows are pretty freaking dull. But 98.7245% of anything is crap - music, TV, movies, literature. Why should podcasting be any different?
Dawn and Drew have that magic touch - it doesn't matter about what they're talking, it's always compelling. Probably because Dawn has a rare combination of perfect comic timing and a free-floating, sick imagination. Drew is a perfect straight man and they have a real natural, easy chemistry. I can't tell you why their show is so good, but it's addictive. Give it a try and see if you disagree. You'll be joining the minions soon.
Speaking of podshows, our song "Sophie" is being spun over on the Little Show today. We're part of the Podsafe Music Network, which shares our music with a bunch of podcasters out there. So if you're sick of regular radio and want to check out some new stuff, give a listen to some of the shows over at the Podshow site.
And get ready for Episode 1.2 of the Scamper Podcast on Monday morning! It's guaranteed to be a real let down from the first episode! Pah!

a concerned reader
Ha - thanks for your concern.
I think you might be under the mistaken impression that I actually put any thought into what I write about every day instead of sitting down and crapping out whatever is in my brain at the moment. Recently, I've got podcasts on the brain. It's better than talking about Mike's balls all the time.
I'll try to cut down, though. I love you too.
Aw, see, I'm glad to hear about this, and I am intrigued, and I am going to go check out Dawn and Drew. Thanks, B! If in the future, you find more cool podcasts, let me know.
Um... Am I allowed to talk about Podcasts?
We were on the Adam Curry Podcast today, which is some large potatoes -- many thousands of listeners. We led off the show with some shtick and Adam played "Sophie". Check him out; give him some love.
Here's a direct link to today's show: Daily Source Code 2.10.06
Adam Curry is married to Zsa Zsa Gabor?
