This weekend I caught a brief interview with “Dirty Uncle Mike”, the lead singer of a band called Dicktionhead.  While at the Galway Arms Irish Pub to see them play, Wendy also phoned in a Restroom Review.

Were you ever a fan of the V mini-series in the eighties?  Well ABC is airing a remake in November.  This episode includes an audio preview – but check out the video version at ABC.com.

The song of the day is the difficult child by Dicktionhead and the website of the day is picnik.com.  The show closes on Movie by Katie Davis. Dicktionhead

This episode is focused predominantly on beer topics: First of all, MillersCoors is starting to experiment with beer in a box. Kid Rock is also throwing his hat into the beer arena with BadAss Beer (by Michigan Brewing Company). If that’s not your style, you might be interested in the new beers being distributed under the Costco Kirkland Signiture brand. Looking for a way to cool off in the summer heat? In Seattle, check out the Bluebird Homeade Ice Cream & Tea Room on Capitol Hill. They have a Stout Ice Cream made with Elysian’s Dragonstooth Stout (review available at elliemay’s blog).
Thanks to Josh from Columnbreak for an excellent restroom review from MSStudios (recorded at the August 4th Gelato Tweetup). Incidentally, the Gelato from the Tweetup was delicious. You’d be crazy not to swing by Gelatiamo and try some out!
The Song of the day is Beer Toast by Bobby Chitwood and the Website of the day is mustlovebeer.com. The show closes on Perfect Fit by Blame Amy.
Don’t forget, Gnomedex 9.0 is right aroudn the corner. Get your ticket while you still can!

Be sure to RSVP!  Gnomedex is also only a month away (aug 20 - 22), so it’s probably time to start thinking about picking up your ticket.  A couple weeks after that is the WABL Labor Day Weekend camping trip – which also sounds like a lot of fun.  Incidently, if you haven’t joined WABL yet, you ought to consider it. 

Recently I picked up a toy for the office called the Mir:ror by Violet.  It’s an RFID reader designed for the average consumer and it’s a pretty fun little product.

The song of the day is Before Daylight by Zach Harjo and the website of the day is WeChooseTheMoon.org - a cool interactive recreation of the moon landing.  Finally, the show ends on Beautiful Lie by Beth Thornley.  

See you at the Oregon Brewfest!

That said, there’s some fun stuff to mention, so I thought I’d do make a quick podcast. First of all, a new brewery will be opening soon in Fremont aptly called Fremont Brewing. I’m always glad to see a new brewery open up in the neighborhood and their blog is a great way to keep up on their progress. Additionally, the Washington Brewer’s Festival is taking place at Saint Edward’s Park in Juanita on June 20th, so you better get that on your calendar. The Fremont Fair is the same weekend. On June 13th, Seattle BrewMuster is taking place at Gallagher’s in Edmonds, there are still a couple more days to get tickets if you’re interested. Pyramid Brewery rebranded their top beers – seems kind of strange to me, but what do you think?

Want to get addicted to a simple little video game? Try out Shift.

The song of the day is One Day Soon by Mark Colety and the website of the day is bing.com. We end the show on a CrapMonkey Spool Sample featuring Tesla’s Forever More.

Discover Magazine has a cool series called “20 Things You Didn’t Know About…” that is worth checking out.  The topics of “Television” and “Time” are certainly worth a read.  Are you in to retro 3D?  If so, get your glasses on and check out Swell3d.com.  However, if this episode is getting you into too good of a mood, maybe you should take a look at thingstobemiserableabout.com.

Finally, there is just a smidge of beer news in this eposide (since I missed the Washington Cask Festival).  Seattle Beer Week is coming up in May.  Check out the Seattle Beer Week website to learn more about what that entails.

The song of the day is Hangman by Zach Harjo and we close the show on Broken Halos.  Both songs are from Zach’s upcoming album called Dark Poems.  It’s not out yet, but you can catch Zach this Wednesday (April 1st) on KEXP or on Saturday April 4th at the Sunset Tavern in Ballard.  The website of the day is Playboy’s cover-to-cover site, a free archive of high quality, scanned playboy issues spanning the publication’s history.  Also included in this episode is a restroom review of Sully’s Lounge in Queen Anne.

What’s wrong with the picture below?  This is a rare glimpse of the Seattle Space Needle at night without its normal illumination.  The lights were shut off for one hour on Saturday night in observance of Earth Hour.  As you can see, very little of the rest of the city played along.

By the way – on Thursday, April 2nd, there will be a Tweetup at Pyramid Alehouse in Seattle. I hope to see you there! (Click the link to RSVP).

I’m extremely pleased to note that Redhook has released their Double Black Stout for a limited time (production of the beer was halted in 2000).  This was my favorite beer back in the late 90s when it was brewed with Starbucks coffee, and it’s still quite delicious today – though I don’t know what coffee they use now.

Lately I’ve been using a new service call ChaCha.  This service is a great way to get information on the fly – just text 242242 with any question, and they will text you back an answer.

The website of the day is Truemers and the Song of the day is Evelee, by Darren Lucas.  Today’s episode closes on Something New by John Francis.  Click the Arrow below to listen to the episode.

It’s the first day of Fall and what better way to celebrate than with a CrapMonkey Podcast.  First off, I want to invite you to a benefit for Jeff Fielder who recently had some of his favorite instruments stolen while he was on the road with Sera Cahoone.  It will be at Station in Ballard on October 3rd (download flyer) and you may also make a donation to the Fielder cause via PayPal (note: I accidently said Oct 4th in the podcast – please note my slip of the tongue!).  In this episode, we chat about technology topics including the Democratic National Convention Online Media Gallery, Chrome, Internet Explorer 8 beta 2, and Zune 3.0.  We also chat about some low tech but useful gadgets including the SwirlyGig and the Ring Thing.  In beer news, Budweiser released their newest beer American Ale (strangely released shortly after being bought by InBev).  Finally, I want to encourage you to check out the History Hackers pilot which airs Friday on the History Channel.

The song of the day is (fittingly) Rob You Blind by Jeff Fielder and the show closes on Last Disguise, also by Jeff Fielder.  The website of the day is ThrilltheWorld.com.
