Ghost of HST

Yeah, it's a bummer, especially since I think VPN does a great job on them...I wonder if Doug Benson will be the last stoner Stanton...

Who doesn't lounge around the house on a Sunday morning with only a shirt on? Cat owners, for one, I suppose... ... Anyhow, I think some idiot roommate told my parents that I died because I was in heaven with this episode...

Awesome, awesome, awesome...FWIW: "Half" or "hāfu" is a term used in Japan. http://www.japantimes.co.jp/culture/2013/10/03/films/hafu/#.Us0c61umguc

Ha! I wondered how the notoriously easily queazy J Pardo handled it?? "Is that pus?" "No, trufle oil." Seriously though, Ducca on Ayahuasca?! Duccashrooms? Always so great to hear Ducca. If you are a fan and have never listened to the Benson Interruption with him, do so forthwith.

That is fucking outstanding!! Earwolf should do a limited poster run for the store of this!

It seems that this movie might have box-car sex. and the old, "Why are they trying to kill me, I'm just a model" never fails to captivate.

No doubt that was masterful. The young 'uns were fine but I do sometimes get the feeling that Matt busts their chops for some improv choice. The trumpet player vid was off the charts! But wait, was this the first simultaneous vid/podcast drop? I am really digging the vpn recently - SUGOi

Thanks c&b but this: sounds like BS...Add e-mail address to list + ??? = CBB live goodness...I will report back with the results.

Sorry to have to air this here but I have not received a single show. Frank C. at Earwolf has been of some assistance but I am having a very hard time understanding how a mass emailing is so difficult. Perhaps Werner would have a witty riposte about the overwhelming weight of mass impersonal technology pressing down on man's soul like the death-grip of, I dunno, a grizzly bear? But really, I just want to hear the episodes...

With Kim Fowley, how could it be anything but awesome?

Coincidance - I was going to spoil myself on who the other guests for Bumbershoot were but, there you go, these Forii and y'all rule it. I thought he might run all the Bumbershoots but if they are the same guests then he will probably run them staggered but I ain't complaining because this one was truly top-notch through and through. And again, thanks for all the background info on the episode...

Love Love the Love the vids. Can somebody womp up a new schedule, please?

There's also the Rainbow parties that involved different colored bracelets: Anyhow, another great, great I4H video epi. Actually, some very next-level shit with the crossed conversations bit...

Great piece on Seagal originally from Spy Mag: http://www.lukeford.net/profiles/profiles/steven_seagal1.htm From 1993 but still very interesting.

IN THE KNOWN AND UNKNOWN UNIVERSES...

Boooo So great!

Mega kudos!!!

Yeah, I thought that it was a missed opportunity but I'm already a fan so... I didn't mind the format switch since that story was so effin' great. Thinking about what an egomaniac "Croc" is, I realized the movie was a total pitch for a TV show - Paul Rodriguez first mentions it and then Croc's last line! Can someone please do a graphic for June Diane's "No! NO! Noooo!" when hearing about Croc's wife?? I feel that George Hamilton's spiel about colonics should have been discussed...Feel free to chime in here folks. Meh, twhatever, "Snap the Jap" not only gave HC cash to THIS show but I know he's quite a supporter of the whole LA podcast scene...I have been meaning to watch that 2:30 show or whatever that Zouks twittered on.

I sincerely apologize for calling you a troll and thank you very much for your detailed and considerate reply. I am also glad that you clarify that in fact you support the patent being challenged and this obviously requires financial support. I can understand that the issue is perhaps being blown out of proportion but I'm sure you can easily see how difficult it is for people to believe that you could patent something as generic as recording something and then uploading the data so that users can click and download that data. I work in translation and occasionally look at patents but my eyes start to glaze over immediately...Nonetheless, I imagine that somewhere within their patent there could be an argument to be made. The "reasonable royalty" aspect is interesting but that would have to be settled within the suit, meaning that, again, lawyers' fees are a necessity so I really don't find a problem with them asking for contributions even though they are perhaps overstating their case. I'd like to see someone more closely involved take a look at your arguments of course. I have heard at least one other podcaster hint that it is being blown out of proportion...

1-post troll and I suppose this isn't the place for it but I have heard some similar innuendo although never anything concrete. I know the opposing side did a Reddit answer-me thing but it seemed like convoluted BS so I'd like to hear some counter opinion too...

I was down with Nick from the get go...I guess someone has to represent the completely opposite side of the spectrum but I do enjoy the show and really bear no ill will towards Phish fans as I figure, being that soft in the head is burden enough, namsayin. Oh! Wasn't there something about Besser being a Phish fan? He should definitely get involved with this!

Another 'head' group is The Heads, a British group who got lumped in with "Stoner Rock" but they have a lot more solid background obviously going back to '60's psyche, and also more open to experiment. Similar to maybe Mudhoney but with a heavier vibe and a love to jam... I'm stoned.

Speaking of weird Monkees stuff, I just ran across this TV special that is quite odd but features a lot of regular music acts and all of the Monkees singing alone or duets - Tork is terrible... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uI1V9RmFX8I&list=WLUiJADkwQN225MKw-AzXfITDg2jptc6CS

Here's the trailer for Orange is the New Black - I hadn't heard that Jenji Kohan was doing something new. I know some people grew to hate Weeds as much as Entourage or some shit but it managed to keep me until the end. I think I spotted her as a guard in the background so it'll be cool to see her on the show... http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x10vj0d_orange-is-the-new-black-red-band-trailer_na#.Ud6rdkHIuSo

Sorry to suck up bandwidth but... Teenage Head was an amazing band - a weird nexus of power-pop sensibilities and punk rawness with nods to the Dolls and all that...
