Here is the Bittorrent link and direct MP3 download for the EGC clambake for February 13, 2005.
In this episode I talk about my reluctant and conflicted and belated urging to vote for me in Podcast Alley; I play and discuss sound clips by Elvis Costello with Nic Harcourt, Stewart Copeland and standup from Rex Navarette; I play a song by Jill Sobule (with permission!!); I discuss the idea that the legal Napster $15 a month download system is antithetical to the $100,000 per file fines the RIAA seeks for file traders; I urge you lazy husband and boyfriends to do something for Valentines Day (which is too late now if you haven’t done anything – oops); I ride off into the sunset with my Shuffle glinting in the orange light .
This episode is sponsored in part by the fine folks at iPodderX! Don’t forget, you can fly your EGC flag by buying the stuff package.
Happy Valentines Day, all you young lovers (and not so young)!!
Links mentioned in this episode:
- Podcast Alley
- Mark VandeWettering waxes on podcast purity
- Jon Udell on the Harcourt/Costello piece
- Stewart Copeland on IT Conversations
- Rex Navarette and his comedy podcast XML feed
- Jill Sobule, a songstress played with her very kind permission
Got ’em downloaded and looking forward to listening later. I heard the Copeland on IT Conversations last week while on a plane to Atlanta and loved it.
Looking forward to what you’ve got to say.
Thanks!

Hey, Dave:
Wish I had a cutesy graphic to post with this, but I’d screw up the HTML somehow, so:
*I Voted*.
Also left a comment. Keep up the good work!

Hey Ken,
Thanks very much. For some reason, your comment put me in mind of the Beatles – “How can you laugh when you know I’m down?”
To the Congress of the United States of America:
We, the undersigned, petition the Congress of the United States of America to apply a portion of the monies collected from the levy on recordable media sales to Dave Slusher and his Evil Genius Chronicles, as his work is clearly being exploited by the thousands who are storing and playing his podcasts on the aforementioned recordable media.
Sincerely, the undersigned. 😉
