So I’m a podcaster am I?

Chris — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 17:08:42 +0000

Hmm…,
I’ve been pretty slack recently as far as podcasting goes. The Road to PAB series seems to have run out of gas, and there’s been no Bobby, no Vinny, no Rupert for, crikey, I don’t know how long, and I totally just realised how, many, commas I’ve used in this sentence, crazy!

This is one of those meta posts taking you behind the kaflooey curtain as it were / is.
So what’s been going on in my life that’s stopped me from kicking out some of the best independent music and mediocre comedy in the podosph…incter?

Never you mind, that’s my business, but… I wanted to give a heads up to let you know that the host of the show is still out there, still cares, and is going to be back in the saddle sooner rather than later. The road to PAB series will continue to its conclusion and we’ll get a little comedic on cho asses. “Once more unto the breach dear friends!” as they say in a small village off the Northern coast of Mexico. That’s right I said northern coast.

So, until the next show…

It’s Movember and I’m a MoBro

Chris — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 21:09:34 +0000

Movember?
MoBro?
Qu’est ce que le fuq?

Movember is the month when MoBros (men who partake in Movember) Grow a moustache during the month of November to raise awareness about Prostate cancer and try and raise funds via donations to help in the fight against it.

So, that’s what I’m doing this month with a fellow podcaster from Vancouver, Mark Blaseckie from the Baba’s beach Podcast:
http://babasbeach.libsyn.com/

This is more than just an excuse to get my Magnum on, someone very close to me was just diagnosed with Prostate cancer, and I’d like to do what I can here to make some kind of a difference for the future.

So if you can, please support us, and visit our donation page here: http://ca.movember.com/mospace/315430 , and tell 50,000 of your closest friends to do the same.

Thanks a lot,

Chris.

Six random things about me

Chris — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 19:19:12 +0000

Mr. Daryl Cognito, over at Atomic Suburbia tagged me in on this, so here’s 6 random things you didn’t know about me. (And if you did already know one – I’m sorry).
Cat from the Catfish Show has also tagged me, so Cat this is for you too

1. I’ve fished (octopused) for octupus when I was working as a greek waiter in, where else? Greece.
2. The queen (not Elton John) once said hello to me. (The kid next to me claims it was him, but it was me. Honest.
3. I have a scar on my left eyelid from where the ex Great Britain Tae Kwon Do Middle Weight Champion kicked me. He was my teacher at the time.
4. I love most things japanese (don’t know why)
5. I am actually pretty shy.
6. I was a coalminer.

There we go, easier than I thought.

I’m gonna try and pass this on to: Ajay, Sage, Ben, Robert DeNiro

Rules

1. Link to the person who tagged you.
2. Post the rules on the blog.
3. Write six random things about yourself.
4. Tag six people at the end of your post.
5. Let each person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
6. Let the tagger know when your entry is up.
7. If you’re Robert DeNiro you don’t have to respond, just make a decent movie once in a while like you used to eh.

I offer no explanation for this.

Try not to… I dare you

Chris — Thu, 11 Oct 2007 16:20:46 +0000

OK, brace yourself. Take a deep breath, and now pull the most serious face you can.

Oh yeah, make sure that you can concentrate too.

OK… ready? Good. Now press play on the vid below.

Design this!

Chris — Tue, 02 Oct 2007 22:23:39 +0000

Hey!

I submitted a tee shirt design called CSSShirt to Threadless.com to be voted on and hopefully printed.

If I get enough high scores the shirt will be printed and sold from the site and I will win some prizes. Take a look at it and if you like it, sign up and give it a score.

Thanks guys – and thanks for listening to the podcast and stopping by the wesbite!

P.S. I’m sure Threadless would be happy if you bought a tee too!

Cheese Watch!

Next time you’re feeling a little low.. Just remember that you had nothing to do with the making of this video, and that actually life is pretty damn good!

Chris — Tue, 24 Jul 2007 16:21:18 +0000

OK, well we finally made it to Canada!

Tag!: My 7 all time favourite songs (for now)

Chris — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 20:25:23 +0000

OK so I was tagged by Cat from the catfish show to list my 7 favourite songs – at least my 7 favourite at this moment in time. Obviously, by the time you’re reading this, I’ll probably have 7 other songs listed in my head – but hey it’s a start…

My 7 all time favoutite songs:
(At the moment)

You make me feel like a natural woman – (as performed by Aretha Franklin)
Dark End of the Street – (as performed by Ry Cooder)
Purple Haze – Jimi Hendrix
One Year of Love – Queen
Sittin’ on the Dock of the Bay – Otis redding
Do the right thing – The Dudes
Bad to the bone – George Thorogood

I now throw down the gauntlet and tag these fine folk to these fine folk to list their top 7 favourite songs of all time and link back to list post

Matt Hyde, Ajay, Daryl Cognito and Doug Nouwen
And for good measure (Bob Goyetche, who tagged his wife Cat, tagged Stephen Harper the Canadian PM):
Tony Blair and Her Majesty the Queen

Do I look like I’m wearing spamdex?

Chris — Tue, 27 Mar 2007 21:22:01 +0000

OK, so I don’t usually add people as firneds that I don’t know, but I thought I recognised the email address for this guys, so added him (he popped up in my gTalk). He then proceeded to ask me…well you read it – here’s the transcript for your enjoyment.
By the way, I’ve removed the rest of his email address from this posting, so he won’t get spammed (and changed the urls he mentioned so his page rank won’t go up – swings and roundabouts I think you’ll agree).

Hello my faithful listeners,

I’m really sorry about the delay in output. I hope to have some more kaflooey you can plug into your ears in the next few days.
I’m just really busy at the moment with life shizzle, if you know what I mean.

Anyway, stay “tuned”, or as Ajay from All Axis Radio says

“Stick around kids”

Yours busily,
Chris.

Under the weather

Chris — Sat, 27 Jan 2007 11:38:33 +0000

Well under the weather to be precise. Not feeling very good at the moment as I’ve been struck with nasty cold.
Anyway, rest assured Kaflooey #039 will be out in the next few days.

Just setting up my Technorati Profile
