Daniel Calvin radiomackinac.org — Sat, 16 Mar 2013 17:05:38 +0000

It's been tough to get anything done with the show lately and between the Holidays, writer's block, emotional black holes, and bouts of drunk, I finally got something going with this show. I think you'll like what I have to say about dish pan hands, sesame seeds, and some other normally lame stuff that I manage to twist into some perversion that I find amusing. I'm betting you will too. And I'm not a betting man.

Make and Break Radio Episode 63 for 4/13/2012

Daniel Calvin radiomackinac.org — Sat, 14 Apr 2012 21:33:35 +0000

This week is a special extra long episode (possibly to make up for the previous two week's shows abscences) recapping my travel from Mackinac Island to Raleigh North Carolina via Chippewa County and Detroit airports. I saw and experienced a lot of pretty interesting things and I am vain enough to believe that random strangers would enjoy hearing of them. The weather was great and the trip was a great time. I'm glad to be back on the island. For this episode I was able to take advantage of a habit I have of visiting used record stores when I travel to a new town and Chapel Hill NC didn't disappoint. I even picked up a Republika disc. Don't judge me. Enjoy!

The embedded photo is taken from a Delta flight from Kinchloe Airport and shows the eastern end of the Straits of Mackinac, Mackinac Island, Round Island, St. Ignace, Bob-Lo, Mac City and the bridge.

Solar flare extravaganza 2012! I know you'll be listening to this episode because your ham radio antenna array will rendered utterly useless this weekend. Will we have a nice showing of the northern lights this weekend on Mackinac? Who knows. What I do know, on the other hand, is that this episode is turning over a new leaf of superior production quality and comedy perfection. How, you ask, can I say this with such certainty? Because the whole show was recorded in my shower while I wore a drenched tuxedo as a belwildered stray dog looked on. Enjoy!

Make and Break Radio is one year old today!

If you aren't completely satisfied I'll send you a bottle of Crystal Pepsi.

A Second Open Letter To Suzi Barrett

Daniel Calvin radiomackinac.org — Sun, 09 Oct 2011 18:46:42 +0000

Much to my chagrin, this was left out of Make and Break Radio Episode 36 entirely. I some how neglected to play it live on "the air" and even worse, completely spaced inserting it into the podcast when I produced that on Saturday night.

I took a trip to the chiropractor for a pinched nerve and I shared an anecdote about my experience with the Make and Break Radio listenership. Mastodon. New York Dolls. It was a great show and I had all of one listener as far as I could tell. They stuck it out until the end. My guess was that they had left the room to watch Matlock.
