Third Place Radio

(Can you believe we are on show number 25?!? It seems like just seven months ago we were on episode 24!)

Today on Third Place Radio we learned that the day that Sam Elliot shaves his mustache will be “The Green Day”… a sure sign of the coming apocalypse. Tom was a little under the weather, but fortunately we had all the regulars in the house today. Dawn, Aaron and DC were all here to discuss the ways in which the world might end in 2012. But first an update on the ‘moral rehabilitation’ in Indonesia know as the Punk-o-cide. The musical break today was provided by our friends, Thee Infernals, with their rock-a-billy-esque cover of Blue Monday.

P.S. This was one of our more NC-17 shows. You are warned… or encouraged… depending on your taste.

Here’s the pic of Rusty’s Choice ketchup… or as @MeganGanz calls it, “meatloaf hot fudge”.

We were one member of the crew short today, but 4 divided by 4 is 1 and that’s what we are striving to be. We spoke to Marti, the amazing vocalist of Imaginary Cities, on today’s show. We talked about how they were selected to tour with the Pixies, how they got their start and why ketchup is important to the band. We also try out a new version of Top Five in which we all create our personal Top Fives. Plus this week’s quiz: Porn Star or TV News Personality? Surprisingly difficult if you don’t watch Fox News.

We have one of these in our studio. Can you guess which one?

Oh, yes we did. An entire show of “that’s what she said” jokes. Crystal a.k.a. Miss Manners, stopped by to provide examples of how not to behave towards a lady. We called Dubious Lou, of the Big Mountain Misfits roller derby fame. Despite technical difficulties, she gave us a great low down on the upcoming April Foul’s Day bout against the Spokannibals. Play along with a quiz: Facebook Group or After School Special. But first, some theater.

I do not know Betty. I hit cancel because I can’t have my Facebook account shut down. I main-line that. I really wish I knew Betty.

The “ground breaking event” of live music at the VFW happened on Friday the 11th. The plan was to record some music sets, grab a couple interviews and compile the whole thing into a cool faux radio show for you. As you can guess by the 7 minute show time, this didn’t happen. But we did get almost one complete song!

After nearly a week of temperatures in the 40′s, it’s now dropped back down to the negatives. This makes me a little negative. People often tell me I need to find a winter activity to help with my SAD, but I’m allergic to the cold and snow. I break out in little bumps and my skin turns red. Some have tried to tell me that these bumps are, in fact, normal and often called “goose bumps”. They also state that the redness is normal and that I should wear gloves. I have a hard time accepting this. I prefer to think of it as allergic.

Maybe you are one of the ones who aren’t quite as affected by the cold. Maybe you are one who would like to do good for their community. Maybe you should go jump in the lake. (Seriously, be freezin’ for a reason. Aaron’s crew broke records last year for the amount of jumpers. It’s a really great cause.)

That is all.

We welcome back DC to this week’s episode! Unfortunately Aaron was under the weather and not able to make it, the good news is that three is a magic number. We took a really fun quiz, “Lifetime Movie or Megadeth Lyric?” You can even play along at home! Plus some great Seattle bands, BOAT and Redwood Plan, were enjoyed as interlude.
