Bowie.

… Honestly, that was all I wanted to write, was “BOWAY”.

In this episode:

* Where do bobcats fit on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness?

* David needs kelp. Psychiatric kelp.

* We can haz vinyl? The answer, I think, is a resounding HELLS YEAH.

* And Montana Morris. He’s all up on our show, too.

You should hear it. You should hear it here.

Whoo, and hello!  What a wacky, crazy show.  I mean, honestly, can you get much wackier?  Or much crazier?  We’re reunited, I’m back from the dino clearing, and I’m rip-roaring ready to talk … about shampoo.

If we started a band, what would you name us?  Send an email.  Seriously.

In this show:

* We discuss Venn Diagrams and conditioner. (How much wackier can a fella get?  I ask you.)

* Part III of THE MONSOON SEASON

* We play music that is both raucous and energizing.

* The Ghost of Video Games Past comes to tell us some of his delightful boy-hero exploits!

Episode The Fourteenth

Hey. It’s David. I’m typing this up on Reginald over in the Dinosaur Pirate Clearing, taking care of Louis, the Dinosaur’s pet gerbil. He’s a lovable little terror. I’m gerbil-sitting right now, so I couldn’t be a part of the show this week. But Dave and Alex have put together a great show, despite my absence.

In this show:

* We recount another tale of the MONSOON SEASON CHRONICLES.

* Dave and Alex discuss the idea of time travel within the constricts of Einsteinian physics.

* We hear the story of the mighty Spiderbat, caped protector of the city of Milwaukee.

Episode Eleven – The Season Finale

Filed under: Episodes

this is the last episode of the season, unfortunately, and this week, the humans are not here – pretty soon, we’ll be out of here, too – the storm is getting worse.

we, the select gnomish djs of gnewsworthy ghost island, are subbing for Alex and the davids this week. it is an unfortunate aspect of our physiognomy – or physiognomey – that we cannot see across the entire keyboard at once, nor can we reach than a few keys in the vicinity of the shift bar simultaneously. thus, only a few letters may be capitalized, and for this we apologize. Also, no exclamation points.

in this episode, we attempt a gnoble endeavor – to satisfy the listeners as well as the humans can. on this week’s podcast…

- fabulous gnome banter. we ponder the ungnowable, and question issues of gnationalism regarding hobbits.

- we listen to fabulous gnomish music. yes.

- we play the journalists’ tape, which details why they aren’t here this week, and won’t be for some time.

yours most sincerely,

gnorman, gnatalie, and gned, the gnomes.
