wholelotofnonsense@gmail.com — Tue, 3 Nov 2009 04:00:00 GMT

National PodCast Post Month has begun. This year, I've chosen to share a poem a day. Okay, what does poetry have to do with living the change? Yeah, Chris Cavs is already hassling me about haikus with butterflies, but poetry is something I live as an example of *why* I live the change. Life is more than protests and getting up in somebody's face. It's not always puppy dogs and rainbows, but art has its place, too.

Whole Lot of Nonsense - Show 106 - How do pharma marketing conferences live the change?

wholelotofnonsense@gmail.com — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 03:00:00 GMT

It's been a long day being involved in the Digital Pharma Marketing conference. A fair reminder, I work for a pharmaceutical company. What's this got to with "living the change that we want to see"? I feel as though I'm trying to help people understand Social Media. So many marketers just want to jump in and do some shouting. I'm hoping I can help them grok the space first.

It's always hard when the discussion turns to self-realisation, doesn't it? This week runs a bit longer, but I think it's still worth it :)

Should we have to pay for "extra" garbage? Should companies have to take back all the packaging they sell? Imagine if you will that your township, borough, or county decides what an average amount of garage should be for you. So, it charges you extra for trash above that average, and things bigger than average trash. Would you expect companies to help by making their packaging smaller? or their packaging more recyclable? I share my thoughts on just these questions. This PodCast was inspired by a story in Parade Magazine.

International Slam Poetry Event - Saturday, 3 March 2008, NYC, FREE

producer@wholelotofnonsense.org — Fri, 7 Mar 2008 15:54:00 GMT

Saturday, Saturday, Saturday! Slam fans! Poetry Lovers! Coming live to the Dactyl Foundation in Soho! International UK and US simulcast poetry slam! Saturday! Saturday! Saturday!

I don't know if the rest of you remember, or still hear, the monster truck rally adverts... that's where my brain was...

Ok. Sure, Slamidol has been in my PodCast feed for a couple of years now, and Simon is an awesome guy who finds great poets to put on his show.

Why is this show special?

Well, Simon himself gave me the reason I can help promote this show... albeit at the last minute. In an email to me, Simon wrote, "we're making a big thing out of how eco-friendly it is because no poets are being flown around for this UK vs US Slam." Awesome.

This is what it's all about, people. Make those little changes you can where you can.

So. You people here in the US. If you love poetry slams, get yourself on over to the Dactyl Foundation in Soho on March 3 from 15.00 to 18.00. In the US, it's free.

Whole Lot of Nonsense - Get Chance on Coverville

In this show, I ask y'all to help me out. There's a musician named Chance, who has done a cover of the Milkshake song... you know it,

"My Milkshake brings all the boys to the yard,
And their like "It's better than yours"
Damn right, It's better than yours,
I can teach you, but I have to charge".

You have -got- to hear his cover... imagine a power rock version of that song... sung tongue in cheek... it's great. You'll need to buy the CD to hear it. Trust me that it rocks!!!

Alright, now why am I telling you this? In case you don't know this guy named Brian Ibbod, he does a PodCast named Coverville. Brian's doing his annual cover countdown show. In order to get in on this countdown, the song needs to get nominated several times to get on the list, and then voted for once it gets nominated. So, I'm asking y'all to help out with the nominating part, and if we get his song nominated, then I'll ask you to vote for it... but we have to get it nominated first.

If you would please go to the Coverville site and click on the nominate button, and tell Brian that you want to put Chance's version of the Milkshake Song, from his CD "eleven through fifteen", I'd appreciate it.

Special thanks to Mike from Coffee House to Go who has already kicked in his nomination... and admitted his love of Shamrock Shakes...

Whole Lot of Nonsense - Show 36 - Simplification... or cleanup... you decide

In this show, I discuss the beginning of my drive to simplification. I figure that I can help reduce my personal load on the world if I can start doing some simplifying. I'll be giving y'all some recordings from our vacation and PPME once I go through the hours of audio I have recorded... This show sees the beginning of Griffin's PodCast reviews, and the revitilization of the PodCaster Hockey League.

Whole Lot of Nonsense - Show 35 - CSA... not the abbreviation you're thinking of

I've been enjoying the produce we've been getting from our local CSA - Honey Brook Organic Farm, so I figure, "Hey, I PodCast... let's PodCast about this... and it's a good social action thing to do...". Listen to me and others talk about how great CSAs are. This show's song is from Tons of Fun University and is called "Come a Long Way". The bed music for the CSA quotes comes from Savium called Animus Girl, courtesy of the PodSafe Music Network. The twang in this show also comes from the PMN and is from Bloingo.

CORRECTED: Whole Lot of Nonsense - Show 34 - Time for some music... Too much thinking lately...

Apparently, I've been thinking so much I'm not even paying attention to what's going on in my feed. Thanks to Jack from Wander Radio for keeping me on my toes.

Whole Lot of Nonsense - Show 34 - Time for some music... Too much thinking lately...

I've just been sitting around thinking too ($*#)&% much lately, so I need a break. I've got my family, my job, my life, my health all going for me... still I've been hamlet-izing too much. I've got four songs that have been running through my head for the last few weeks, and hey! I can play them on a PodCast... how fortuitous.
