"It's easy to sit there and say you'd like to have more money. And I guess that's what I like about it. It's easy. Just sitting there, rocking back and forth, wanting that money."

Liquid Egg Product: the podcast

This is a complete disaster. It resembles some sort of unholy amalgam of Space Ghost, Phil Hendrie, and Homestar Runner, except much worse. I plan on having exactly zero podcasts in the future.

Liquid Egg Product Podcast (1.6 MB, 3:25)

The original was recorded as a WAV file, so I downloaded some software to convert to MP3. The trial version of the software only converts the first 2/3 of a file, but it ended so perfectly, I decided not to bother trying to stick in the rest.

    OMG, I totally want to podcast now. This could be the wrongest idea EVER!

    The readership (I know I speak for everyone) demands more podcasts of this quality. Also, I want to vote for the Mascot for President more than ever. His voice is deeper than Obama’s, he’s cuter than Hillary and he’s slicker than John Edwards. He already said he’s cool with guns and kinky sex. So, what’s not to like. Bribes–cool as long as he’ll come through with the pardons.

    Right now it’s down to him or Ron Paul for me. And a promise of an Ambassadorship for moiwould totally seal the deal for the Mascot.

    OMG. I think I need to get Mr. Thumbhead in on a LEP podcast.

    (Hey D – Audacity is an open-source audio editor that’ll let you convert from wav to mp3 all you want. Though you’re right, this one ended seemingly right on cue!)

    in grad school, we did a case study on a recorded session between a grad student and a supposedly autistic child. After endlessly analyzing the child’s speech patterns and drawing up data for a treatment plan, it was revealed that we were analyzing the grad student pretending to have a convo with an autistic child; it was just her acting it out.

    This podcast reminded me of that day. Also you have an excellent broadcasting voice, I can really imagine you on NPR giving the headlines. :)

    @Kate: You’re right on there. With apologies to Anchorman, “It’s so hot. Podcasting was a bad choice.”

    @Wahrheit: Please do not hold me responsible if a Mascot administration ends up committing international crimes.

    @Caroline: (For the uninitiated, here’s one of Mr. Thumbhead’s videos from his short career.)

    A collaboration between Mr. Thumbhead and the Mascot is a compelling idea. Twice the randomness, twice the stupidity.

    @Annie: That’s hilarious. I didn’t realize you could tell that sort of thing via voice patterns.

    Re: me in broadcasting. Ugh! My voice is nasally and awful!

    Sure, man, you can be an ambassador. Uh, what do you like: a small, Caribbean nation where you don’t have to do jack? Or you wanna be important and have to talk to China or somebody? I don’t care; diplomacy’s overrated anyways.

    Mascot–definitely, Caribbean nation, little clothing, golf, drinking, beaches. I will represent our country in a manner that your Administration will be proud of, or at least hush up the scandals with bribes so that they don’t make the news.

    Mascot, I’d like to be ambassador to Bezerkistan.

    OK, Wahrheit. I’ll get OPEC to prop up oil prices so Exxon/Mobil pays more taxes so we’ll have plenty to give ya.

    Thanks for your oh-so-useful suggestion, Allen. Do you want to double up and be the ambassador to Trashcanistan as well????

    Did you know I need ambassadors to countries that, you know, exist????

    Transhcanistan? If anything, you should say Elbonia.

    OK, that was hilarious. I’m impressed you didn’t get someone else to do that voice of the mascot, I would not have been that brave. Late happy Thanks Giving!

    LMAO. The mascot rules.

    Phil Hendrie may his brilliant show RIP.

    @Allen: Yeah, but who’d want to be an ambassador to Elbonia?

    @l3rucewayne: What do you mean I was using my voice?

    @BDK: Hendrie’s retirement was a blow to talk radio. Unfortunately, I only caught the tail end of his career.
