Episode 77 : Occupy * FingerBlast

from Secretly Timid

Good day, my fine, fine friends. On today’s show Jon shares his 4-point plan to winning the PodCast Awards general category. Then the crew calls up friend of the show (and editor of Carve Magazine) Matthew Limpede who shares his experience at Occupy Dallas. This week’s Hot Topics include : a study shows that oral sex may be the leading cause of throat cancer,  MD’s get cranky on whether Phd’s deserve the title, “Doctor,” a burglar’s tip to police leads to a child porn bust, an Italian man gouges out his own eyes at mass, a breast implant saves lives, and an Ex-Model who ate her husband says that she “is not a monster.” *Special note : This recording (and all recordings) are recorded on Monday. This week City Hall announced a deadline for the Occupy Dallas demonstrators to abandon their demonstration or face possible incarceration. They were also informed that they could be raided by police who will be searching for drugs. Last night the Occupy Boston demonstrators were raided by police. We hope our friends at the Occupy Dallas movement are safe and that what happened in Boston does not happen in our city. This week’s featured song is “Fire” by Yael Meyer. Her album, Everything will be Alright, will be released November 15th. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7ipKg1Opy8[/youtube] * * * Voting for the PodCast Awards begins tomorrow, October 12th. It would be awesome if you would head over to the PodCast Awards and vote for Secretly Timid. You can vote once every day. * * * VoiceMail : (469) 27-TIMID Email : [email protected] Like us on Facebook Follow us on Tumblr and Twitter Subscribe to us on iTunes

In each episode of Family Ghosts, we investigate the true story behind a mysterious figure whose legend has followed a family for generations. Grandmothers who were secretly jewel smugglers, uncles who led double lives, siblings who vanished without a trace, and other ghostly characters who cast shadows over our lives in ways that might not be immediately obvious. We are all formed in part by our familial collections of secrets, intrigues, and myths. By engaging with each others’ legends, perhaps we can see each others’ realities more clearly.
