Post-Grad

If there is one thing the world needs desperately…

It is another podcast. 

So, I making one!

I have made several!

I haven’t been so vocal about it, because I have been ironing out a lot of the wrinkles in the production and content. Namely, making sure it doesn’t suck the life out of your soul and waste your time. 

“So, what?” You ask. “Every jockstrap with a microphone and a 56k modem can talk about nothing.”

Ah, this is true. But I, I have something different to offer for you and your cynical life. And I’m not just talking about a broadband connection.

“Oh sure, I’ve heard that before.” You mock. “If there is one thing Barak Obama taught me, it is that change is a slow, grueling process that takes many election cycles and taut, political cooperation and compromise.”

Uh, okay. I wasn’t really expecting that, but I guess you have a point. 

NONE-THE-LESS

I have something different. Truth. 

Now, I will be the first to say that, after four episodes, I am still unsure whether it is a “good” (in quotation marks) idea. I don’t really care. It is fun. 

In this podcast, I give you a rundown about what I watched and read during the week, sharing my well reasoned, often insightful opinions about why I dislike most things. 

I can hear you now:

“Yep! Meet the new boss, same as the old boss! I knew not to buy into your two toned posters of optimism. Your bumper stickers should say, ‘O…..no, not again’.”

Hm. I mean, that’s clever, but I hope you know that I am not President Obama. Your comments are just becoming more and more irrelevant. 

Anyway, I wasn’t finished. Yes, anyone can do this, and yes you should be more apt to listen, because my opinions are well defended. 

However, I do all this, while trail running. 

“…”

Well said. 

I have a headset and I just talk while I run. 

It’s idiotic. 

I have been introducing a number of features to make it seem like you aren’t just listening to me breath heavily. Features such as: “What Kind of Dog is That?” “This Guy…” “This Week in Girlfriend” and “What DID I Like This Week”. 

Since I record off of my phone, I also have email access. So, that. 

Admit it, at some point you at least smiled at the description. 

The title?
