One Long Drunk

Man, you can't stop a long podcast, you can only hope to contain it. Contain it we did not. This Dorktown Podcast broke all kinds of time records (laughs and time) - hopefully it was worth it.

Derek Snyder joins Mikie and Bells as they relive Derek's Fresno radio days (KFSR and KMJ's Raidio Tradio). Also, the Dorktown boys check in on a supposed Scorpions show at Fresno Fair's Paul Paul theatre. Fresno Famous' promo is played.

Then it gets real ugly as the guys' buzzes take over the show and it just turns messy. But they do mange to play a LYRIC GAME and a OR GAME with Derek.

Please just take a few minutes and download the mother! We've never laughed so damn much! Dorkshow14.mp3 (52:21)(explicit)

Show In The Works

We are currently "working" on a new Dorktown show (By working I mean we aren't doin' shit) and you should be hearing something from us next week. Until then, you can always email us or hop on to the forum.

Show 12 Is A Rip-Off!

Fresno man, that's what this podcast is about. Show 12 "borrows" from 88.1 kfcf's Friday night show "Move On Up" (Friday's at 7:00). "Move" is hosted by Devoya Mayo and Michael Powell and they were hard up enough for a guest to bring Dorktown's own Mikie in. Things discussed:

Podcasting, Fresno creativeness, Zohrab, Fresyesers and Noers, Why a Fresno band hasn't "made it", writing, Ribit and Black Fry and a whole host of other cool Fresneck stuff.

NEVER FORCE A PODCAST

ADVISORY NOTICE TO ALL PODCASTERS! DON'T PODCAST AFTER: PLAYING WIFFLEBALL AS YOU DRINK ALL DAY. ALSO DON'T ADD-ON A "WIFFLE TALK" ONLY PODCAST. THEN, DON'T GO OUT TO A LONG JAPANESE DINNER AND START GETTING A HANGOVER FROM DRINKING EARLIER AND THEN, AS IT BECOMES TOO LATE TO DO ANYTHING, FORCE PEOPLE TO DO A PODCAST WITH YOU.

That is the back-story you need to listen to this podcast.

A tired Mikey and Bells bring in Aaron Ford to tell everybody that La Selva Beach people suck. And give Aaron an extended "Or Game". Also they say good-bye to "The Front Row" and say thanks to Devoya from "Move On Up" and to some key listeners, as they listen to The Mars Volta.

Download me, show 11: sleepyshow11.mp3

Sorry, We're Still Here!

This isn't really a show but a commercial for upcoming show 11.

During this "show" (10.5) Mikey talks about how he'll be on the radio (88.1 in Fresno, Friday night 7:00 P.M.), laments how he had to give away his Taproot tickets, pretends he's at the Taproot/Chevelle show and he talks about show 11.

Show 11 will have Aaron Ford, a new "Or Game", Bells and Mikey talkin' KRZR, Green Day's Fresno show review, upcoming System of a Down show and whatever else comes into their drunk heads.

Thanking Fresno Famous and the fLOWING WITH FAMOUS team of Jarah, Reid and "Malcom", with special thanks to Devoya Mayo of 88.1.

Was Axl Rose ever in Fresno? Listeners are board to death. Cartoons and porn.

Closed Fresno businesses. Bullard "Open Campus". C Student Nerds are the worst. You can't fuck-up Italian food. They don't call Fashion Fair "F.F." for nothin'. You're doin' good when you need to steal condoms.

A listener gets called out.

Fresno punk band "It'll Grow Back" gets some action.

Bad crank calls. BELLS conducts his first "OR GAME" -and it's good.

Good bye's and bad singing.

Somebody Should Fire The Host

Dorktown show host Mikie gets his ass ripped for being a crap host. Becky and Bells try and help Mikie out but he's beyond help.

Outside of Mikie getting his ass ripped, the group talks about: People who don't like mainstream rock, Six Feet Under, Steve Perry, Keso Dip (or caso or Cso...I don't know), Aaron Ford's old ass, Jack Johnson sucks, little person sex, bands that sell out and a lot of F-Bombs by Bells. If adult language scars you, ya best not listen.

This show is why I love podcasting. If you have ever gone to your local "dive bar", for any reason, you will probably like this show. It's a long one (39:29), but, you get to hear such things as: Fresno "dive bar" history, Bon Jovi Karaoke, bar nudity, girl fights, Square Cal Fun Bar, bathroom sex, KRZR "Front Row" bashing, Checkers Melting Pot, drinking in bars at 6:00 in the morn....ah hell, just download it please.

Dorktown Show Five Sucks!

This isn't the funniest Podcast ever made but, you know, nobody knows what the hell they're doing here - that's the good and bad of podcasting folks. Mikie's gotta take his podcaster lumps sometimes.

Mikie brings Becky back to talk about fire, yelling a bad bands, left wing radio and regurgitating.

Show 4...Enter Bells

His personality begs for his own Podcast but Dorktown Radio's "Mikie" is lucky enough to have Bells on his. Finally, Zohrab makes it into the studio to help Mikie talk about (of all things) Cher, Fresno, The Swiss, beer, Howard Stern, The Golden Penny, System Of A Down and Llamas...yep, Llamas.

DUMB BLOG ALERT

BRRAAA BA BRRRAAA, BRRAAA BA BRRRAAA
THIS IS A TEST OF THE EMERGENCY BLOGING SYSTEM – THIS IS ONLY A TEST.

I don’t know about where you live, but here in Fresno, the Emergency Broadcast System test message, that is played over the radio, sounds like hell. It’s if the guy giving the message is calling from a thunderstorm in 1938.

Hasn’t our audio technology advanced enough to make a clear sounding message? Maybe the point is to make it raw sounding to get our attention. The blaring tones at the beginning get my attention enough guys, thanks.

Don’t you wish, one of those times the test message comes on, it is an actual, exciting, emergency and not just a test? Something like “Aliens have landed and are milling about around the Corcoran State Prison area. We think they are from Mars. Charles Manson is interpreting for us - more news to follow.”

THIS HAS BEEN A TEST OF THE EMERGENCY BLOGING SYSTEM. IF THIS HAD BEEN AN ACTUAL FUNNY BLOG, LAUGHTER WOULD HAVE ENSUED.

Never Judge A Tweaker By Its Cover

Tweakers friggin scare me. Their jumpy actions, wide eyes and stream of conscience speaking style, drives me a little nuts.

At my job, I work outside a lot and go all over town (Madera, CA.). I work along sidewalks part of the time. The other day, I'm working and a guy comes up who looks to be homeless or just a tweaker. He asks me "Hey man, you work for Blah Blah Blah?" [my company's name is omitted to protect the un-innocent] I say "Yea." The Tweaker inquires "Where can I go to give an application?" I tell him the only way is to go online, submit though there (which IS the only way). He says thanks and moves on.

Now, I don't think we are hiring but, I'm thinking, it's pretty doubtful they're hiring tweakers anyway.

The next day I'm in a total different part of town, at a business that's getting ready to open up. I'm waiting for the manager to get off his phone so I can ask him what he needs from me. I then hear, from behind "Hey man, you work in this part of town too?" It was the tweaker from the day before. I nod and he goes on to say "Yea, I sent my application through your guys' website, don't know if I'll hear back." I say "Man, you never know, good luck dude." He then goes on to talk shop about stuff I don't even know much about.

Tweaker is waiting for the manager too and he talks to him first. I listen in on their conversation and the Tweaker is asking the manager about a job.

Now I feel like an asshole.

This "tweaker" is going all around town, on foot I believe, pounding the pavement, trying to get his unemployed self a job. Here my jerk-ass self was lookin' down on the guy.

I'll never make a snap judgment on a tweaker again. Be annoyed maybe, but judgmental, no.

Thank You Episode I and II

GEEK-BOY OPINION ALERT - PLEASE DON'T READ IF YOU CAN'T STAND DORKS WHO TAKE STAR WARS TOO SERIOUSLY.

Everybody has an opinion on them [Star Wars - "Phantom Menace" and "Clone Wars"] and most are bad. It really became almost "cool" to bash Episodes I and II.

The fact is, our imaginations built up those movies so much, there is now way the films could have matched it. Even if you didn't like the first two prequels, you have to recognize their importance.

In EP's I and II, we see Senator Palpatine's "friendship" with Anakin grow, Anakin's problems with the "Jedi Way" and Ani's love for Padame. Without that, Episode III couldn't have worked. It still would have been cool but you wouldn't believe that Anakin would have turned to the Dark Side so quickly.

Now that most S.W. fans have seen the new and final flick "Revenge Of The Sith", it is "cool" to praise the Star Wars francaise again. The movie IS pretty damn good. Even mild fans agree. But "Sith" is good due, in large part, to the groundworked layed out in Episode I and II.

GEEK-BOY ALERT NOW OVER.

Don't Let Greenlight Go Out!

What have I done? Sweet Jesus...What have I done? My bad Mojo may have killed one of my favorite TV shows.

I have been supporting the third season of Project Greenlight(at the moment, on the Bravo network)as much as I can. Tivoing every episode,writing about how great a season it's been. Every show was more interesting than the next.

Through some great show editing, they managed to find a person to dislike almost every episode. One episode it was the Director, then the Studio Head, then the Casting Director, the Director of Photography, the Line Producer, the spoiled actress and so on.

It was a fun season to watch. Unfortunately, it could be the last. A morbid statement from show Executive Producer Chris Moore, makes it look like this could be the end:


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Thank You"
Episode 9

Last night was probably the last new episode of Project Greenlight ever. I am sorry to be reporting this here, but anyone reading this blog is a devoted and loyal Project Greenlight fan. You have been loyal and vocal and true fans of what we have tried to do, so I want you all to know the truth first. Although the movie FEAST awaits release, the ratings of this year's Project Greenlight show will not warrant bringing the show back. It is possible that Dimension will do the movie again, which could mean there is a contest again next year. However, my gut is telling me that without the whole three-headed monster of the TV show, contest and film, there is little chance of Project Greenlight continuing

-Chris Moore

For what it's worth, I hope the show can somehow comeback (I still haven't submited a script in to get rejected). If you want to do something, you can click this link: Online Petition and sign the petition to save PGL!! It really is the best reality show out there.

Since I seem to give bad Mojo to my favorite shows, maybe I should watch some bad shows and give that bad stuff to them. What time is "Extreme Makeover" on?
