Vegas

Believe it or not, the CrapMonkey is back on the air!  It’s been a while since I’ve gotten a show posted, but there’s been a lot going on.  Saw some decent shows recently, including Jeff Fielder at the Showbox and Zach Harjo at the Sunset Tavern in Ballard.  A week ago, I was in Las Vegas for the National Association of Broadcaster’s Conference (NAB) so I have a few clips to share from that trip. 

The song of the day is Rollin’ and Tumblin’ by Jeff Fielder and the website of the day is TexttheFish.com (though you should also check out karatekidpose.com.  The show closes with a song by StoneHoney called Two Years Down.

Well, the weekend is coming to an end.  In this episode we have an audio snippet from our night on Ballard Avenue and there is also a restroom review of the CHAC (reviewed during the Ignite Seattle event).  Need a little nude art to go with your beer?  Perhaps barearts.com has what you need.  There are a few things of interest going on in the not too distant future: Wintergrass Festival, Spitfire and SIFF Oscar Party, The Buttrock Suites, and a Kristen Hersh in-store top the list.

The song of the day is Amway by Fanny Alger and the website of the day is actually the CES coverage on Geek News Central’s Video Podcast Feed.  We close the show with On a Podcast by Cruisebox.

CMP-1-21-2007: CrapMonkey Podcast Episode 115

January 21, 2007 10:12 pm

It’s Sunday night and I’m sipping a Mactarnahan’s Blackwatch Porter.  Wendy and I checked out Bodies: The Exhibition in Seattle this weekend and I recommend it to anyone who is able to get there.  Last Thursday the Seattle Podcasting Network Meetup featured a discussion on portable media, podcasting and user generated content that is available for download. Need an idea for Valentine’s Day?  What about a night out at Hales Brewery? Also worth noting: the 8th Annual Washington Cask Beer Festival is coming up in March and tickets will go fast. Following are a couple of fun links:

The song of the day is Agony in June by Sunday Morning Music (buy the album on Amazon) and I close the show on a song by Phil Hurley.  The website of the day is vanishingpointgame.com (following the website of the day, I go on a brief tangent about WPF/E and the Microsoft Expressions Suite).

By the way, CrapMonkey now has a MySpace site… want to be friends?

POC 9 - CrapMonkey Podcast - Pieces of Crap #9

November 29, 2006 12:13 am

Travis BrewsIn this fairly lengthy Piece of Crap, my friends and I take to brewing some beer.  We went up to Cellar Home Brew and bought all the equipment needed to start brewing our own beer.  In addition to the gear, we picked up the necessary ingredients to whip up a porter (which we dubbed Schrodinger’s Porter - give us a break, we’d had a few beers by then).  After getting all the gear home, stocking up the fridge with Dechutes, and downloading a few how-to articles from the Internet; Matt, Mr. Mark and I step into the wonderdul world of home brew.  Images are available on my Flickr page.
