Here is the Bittorrent link and direct MP3 download for the EGC clambake for December 19, 2004.

I mention the nut-clacking cold of this weekend in Chicago; I discuss my disappointment in G**gl* ads; I talk about how a cheap USB card reader is revitalizing my outlook on my Zaurus; I play a song by Devil in Miss Jones from the Wakka Chikka Wakka Chikka compilation; I give some of my history with ebooks; I tell how I think Gemstar managed to get dealt a blackjack and still bust the hand in their purchase of Nuvomedia and the Rocket eBook reader; I talk about why I think the eBookwise reader is a good deal; I play a Martinibomb song from the same album; and I tell the anecdote of how John Waters is obsessed with taking Don Knotts to Hollywood functions as his date.
