Episode 107 -- Live 06/14/09 Part 1 of 2

 Part one, the first hour of last Sunday's live show.  I had some technical difficulties after the first hour, but this part came out really clear, with Callburner doing the recording, and a whole bunch of editing.Talked for a while about the swell deal I got at a nearby Rummage Sale: a Kodak Easy Share CX6200 and the original Kodak Easy Share printer dock, both in a box for $10.  Cool, huh?Music: Levar Thomas - "Ain't All Bad" and "Ain't All Bad Radio Mix."  Really like this tune, and it's got a really positive message.  I liked the way the two versions worked together, so I ended up editing them into one, long piece.  Hope he doesn't mind.  Thanks, Levar!Tried to talk to Jen from "Inside My Head" on the show, but couldn't get the audio on her end to work correctly.  This whole process, not Jen's fault, was what produced the escalating chaos later in the show.  Sometimes I think doing a call-in show is a mistake, once I got good on the regular podcast.  But if you don't challenge yourself, you never learn anything. Announced the last episode of "Flatland" is up on Podiobooks.com -- and it's also out there at the end of the Hiber-Nation feed, too, awaiting you.Finally got connected with Jen (aka "Queen of Haiku" on Twitter).  She had some nice things to say about Levar's music (and I kept obsessing about the technical stuff).  Got to play with my new Rejoiner for the show, too.  (Still having problems understanding her on the Click to Talk connection; had a horrible AC hum, which I edited out For Your Listening Pleasure.)Talked a bit about Jen & Shawno having their experimented with live shows for their "Hypernonsense" podcast, the one they do together.Discussed the upcoming interview with Natalie Brown this coming Sunday.Music:  Natalie Brown - "Hold Your Head Up High"Jen called back in on Skype, and it worked properly.  FINALLY!  But we had more technical difficulties with picky BTR stuff.  But at least I could finally hear her okay...  More discussion of live shows, UStream, All Things Azeroth.I've come to the conclusion I start having problems when I start getting call-ins.  Which is a bad sign for doing a call-in show, now ain't it?Discussed Jen's experiences (she's a teacher) with Swine Flu, or not Swine Flu.  I get all Scientific-sounding.  Talked about "ReGenesis," this show I watch(ed) on Hulu.  Wonder if it's still being produced?  And did they jump the shark?  And talked about "Castle," with Nathan Fillion starring.  Looking forward to that being on Hulu, too!AND THEN I foolishly took a moment to play some music & get more coffee, and broke stuff again...Music:  Natalie Brown - "You're Mysterious"... and off to part 2 of 2, dropping tomorrow...
