Hullo...? Anybody there?

culturesluts@gmail.com (Wildcasts) — Mon, 11 May 2009 00:55:00 +0100

It's been about... ahem... two and a half years since Culture Sluts ceased podcasting - hey a lot has happened! Check out Steve's new projects: http://irishmusictelevision.com/ & http://www.stylenation.ie/ & virtual cinema. And I haven't been completely absent from the podcasting & music & filmmaking buzz either!

But I just wanted to post a message as I have started a new podcast... this time there's really no talk and all music. Basically it's a weekly mixtape of 10 songs that just happen to float my boat that week. It's called Love Action Luvs Friday Mixes! And as the name suggests, it's posted on tinterwebs every Friday morning.

You can subscribe to the podcast in iTunes here... or you can just go directly to the blog just here: http://loveactionluvs.blogspot.com Hey, enjoy! We miss ya!

In The Lebanon...

who are we?

I know Culture Sluts is not a political blog or podcast, but it's one soapbox that I have to stand on, and I feel I've got a few comments I need to get off my chest.

I have personally found myself affected by the goings-on in Lebanon. One of my best friends was there to study and found herself in the middle of conflict. You can read her story here: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/13862665/

Since she returned home safely to LA, ridden with guilt about the friends and family she left behind, she has been updating her blog regularly. It's definitely worth checking out: http://beirutmonamour.blogspot.com Through some of her posts I came across this cartoonist who is currently in Beirut as well and has updating his blog and his Flickr with his drawings. I cannot help but feel completely sick about what is going on over there. And feel completely helpless, as an American, because my government has decided that they are going to step back from the matter and not help innocent civilians. It's disgusting.

podcasting army required for Darklight Festival

culturesluts@gmail.com (Wildcasts) — Thu, 18 May 2006 13:30:00 +0100

Hey all, the 2006 Darklight Festival is just around the corner - taking place in Temple Bar the weekend of June 22nd!

The ENTIRE event will be recorded and podcast via the Darklight blog. In order for everything to run smoothly I'm looking for a small podcasting army to help out with recording. These would be volunteer positions, but in addition to great podcasting experience, it would give you free entry to the various Darklight Events taking place over the weekend.

if you're interested, or would like more information, send me a message, or email me at jessie-at-wildlight.tv

darklight.ie

Cheers! - Jessie

The CultureSluts on Adam Curry's DSC!

culturesluts@gmail.com (Wildcasts) — Sun, 19 Mar 2006 19:47:00 GMT

Adam Curry played the Irish Podcaster's St. Patrick's Day Greeting on Daily Source Code #355. featuring Us, an Timeall, Bernie Goldbach, Brian Greene, Dermod Moore, Technolotics, Dec's Ramblings, Liam Burke, Keith Gaughan, Clonmel Chat, Tom Raftery, Sarah Stacy and Clara. Well done Bernie for a great idea!

Hopefully this may drive a few more listeners ( and podcasters! ) to the nascent Irish Podcasting scene.

It's kinda cool to get a mention on the DSC, since Me and Jessie have been listeners since the early days and it was Adam who inspired us to get podcastin' in the first place. So cheers Adam! I bet we will need a whole show to fit all the Irish Podcasters in next year :-)

Happy Paddy's Day from CultureSluts!

Suffragette City @ TBMC - feat. Neosupervital

culturesluts@gmail.com (Wildcasts) — Thu, 3 Nov 2005 13:37:00 GMT

Hey Dublin CultureFans - be sure and come along to Suffragette City, the new late club I'm hosting with Sue (the other half of Love Action).

It's on every Thursday at the Temple Bar Music Centre featuring eclectic, dirty rock 'n rollectro played loudly by two ladies with impeccable dress sense. Only stipulation of the LOVE ACTION experience: it's gotta make you dance.

We're off this week due to the Revs cancelling their gig... but don't miss next week (10th Nov.) GREAT lineup including our very own personal favorite, Neosupervital. Doors are at 7.30. See y'all there!
