Double Jump Spirit

Some friends have started their own podcast and I need to take a minute to not applaud them but get some facts straight about my gaming reputation.

CAVEradio is back on the air, again

So Jen decided it was time to start doing the radio show again…and that means your Wednesday nights will never be the same. This is easily the fourth or fifth time we’ve “returned” to the show and it will happen again, but while we’re back this time, won’t you join us?

Mommy, I think I don’t have any more blood

We’ve all done a butt dial, or purse dial…whatever you call it when your cell phone magically calls someone without you knowing it. It’ll be in your pocket or purse, and in some cases, a child’s hand. Recently a friend’s son managed to call the old CAVEradio studio line recently and left a few voicemails.

It all started with GeoCities

Back before everyone had a “blog,” they had “home pages,” and GeoCities was the place to have your own little soap box. My on-line life started with GeoCities, so it is kind of sad to learn that Yahoo is shutting down the service after more than a decade. GeoCities was awesome at the time, but [...]

The Alice Cooper show

It should come as no surprise that Alice Cooper knows how to put on a show. He’s been doing it for 30+ years and seemingly hasn’t changed much. By this point in history most people know Alice’s gimmicks - the guillotines, the hanging, blood, horror - but even though I knew what was coming, it [...]

Pop-up players to be a thing of the past

I’ve been thinking a lot about web audio players lately. Working for a radio station I’ve had to deal with live web streaming audio for a long time, but not since we put efforts in CAVEradio had I really thought about getting creative with the typical pop-up audio player. As I use CAVEradio as my [...]

Transformers 2, I’m glad it was free

If you’ve followed my Twitters and even tuned in to the recent CAVEradio episode, you already know that I gave Transformers 2 a piss poor review. I had free passes to see the midnight showing on opening night and while the price was right for the tickets, the ultimate price of losing three hours of [...]

A look inside CAVEradio

The reaction people have when I tell them I have my own radio show is priceless. Of course, they all think I mean “real” radio and then when I refine my statement to say “it’s on the internet,” they usually retort with an “oh,” as though internet radio is insignificant. But even then they’re always [...]

My first ghost hunt

I’m a skeptic. When it comes to spirits, death, religion, or any other metaphysical topic it’s going to take some real proof to convince me. I like to think I’m a man of logic and science. But as I think any good skeptic should be, I want to be proven wrong. I can be a [...]

The CAVEradio Experience

As we continue to do the weekly CAVEradio show, we’re constantly looking for ways to improve the overall experience. During the live show is one thing - that’s just winging it - but we know that not everyone can tune in live so many probably listen to the podcast replay. Well, after our last show [...]

Less Macho than last time

The last time I was on “real” radio it was on the AM dial, in all it’s low-fi mono glory. This time it was a crystal clear FM stereo…too bad I just didn’t deliver like I did last time. My inner Macho Man just wasn’t feeling it.

Tournament lessons

For the first time in a long time was happy and excited about a local event, a Rock Band tournament held at COSI, the local science museum. I was ready. I had bandmates lined up and a song all picked out. I was ready to put on a show and maybe even win. But then [...]

Geeks vs. Geeky

We had a pretty good discussion about geeks and nerds on the latest CAVEradio show in relation to a little web project I’m starting with some of the CAVEcrew. The project is all about geeky stuff, but local geeky stuff. I’m tired of seeing local “lifestyle” magazines about trendy restaurants, indie music, and where to [...]
