Medialoper Bebop Episode 32: Rehab Rehab

And we’re back! Kirk, Tim & Jim start off by discussing Daylight Saving Time and the logistics of attending SxSW in a wheelchair, and wonder Kirk didn’t do just that following his knee surgery. (4:28 – 10:00) You wonder why e-book prices have gone up in the past couple of years? And they’re all pretty much the same wherever you happen to shop? It’s because of a thing called “agency pricing,” and the U.S. Department of Justice are considering suing Apple and the major book-publishers over colluding to fix prices. (10:01 – 26:33) Then: we discuss artists asking Rush Limbaugh not use their songs on his show. (26:34 – 33:40) Finally, it’s Kirk’s turn for In The Mix. This week, it’s Ben Kweller, Chuck Prophet and The Died Pretty. (33:41 – 39:52) Subscribe to us in the iTunes, yo! One More Thing Tim – It’s William Shatner’s World, and we’re just living in it. (39:56 – 41:45) Kirk – MLB.TV has done the right thing this year. (41:46 – 45:20) Jim – Have you heard the new Van Halen album? (45:22 – 46:30) Medialoper Bebop Episode 32: Rehab Rehab was recorded at 2:00PM PDT on Sunday, March 11, 2012 via Audio Hijack Pro over iChat. It was edited by Jim in Audacity. The theme music for Medialoper Bebop is “Big Hand on the Seven” by our close personal friends, The Miss Alans, who not only don’t ask us for promotional consideration to mention our use of their song every time out, they don’t even know we have a podcast.
