By "flag" he might have meant a copy protection flag. He didn't want you to rip and burn the disk!

"Dan Dare" is a classic, the English Buck Rogers, not as well known here as it should be, even b SF and comics aficionados.

I think Go4 themselves were disappointed with the sound of it, which is why they re-recorded it 25 years later ("Return the Gift")

My sister has a beach house in Milton Delaware, When there I often pop into the Dogfish Head brewery store (as one does) I just realized, looking at Irwin's playlist page, that YOU'RE THE GUY WHO DOES A LOT OF THAT DOGFISH HEAD LABEL AND POSTER ART (Johnny Cask etc) Consider me even more of a fan than I was before.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:46pm
common:

love that brewery, paul b.!
  3:52pm
G:

My uncle is next door neighbors with the Dogfish owner. That's some huge factory they built in Milton recently...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:56pm
Ike:

Well, it's not like there's much else happening back home on the Delmarva Peninsula. If they have to build beer factories somewhere, build them next to the "Delmarvelous" chicken farms on that flat boring land where I grew up. Maybe the beer will taste like chicken-fish heads.

listening in Austin, TX. good stuff, all new to me.

Home of the 90 minute IPA, Burton Baton. G. Yeah, They got a pipeline that runs about a quarter mile from brewery bldg to the bottling plant, It's gradually become a good sized facility. Milton can't complain

Does Joe Frank still read these? Did his voice change? Sped up and pitch-shifted? Something is off about these recent Joe Frank episodes?
  4:31pm
a guy:

The recodings come from various periods in Joe Franks long career. Irwin doesn't play them in order. Sometimes we get Younger Joe sometimes we get Old Joe. This is the first time i've ever heard Singin Joe.

is it him or his character who is a dick? hard to say, i guess.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:52pm
Sem Chumbo:

Sorry, common. I confused the actor and the part. The role is that of a kind of dick, I think, when it comes to specifying a sex worker.
But I wonder who Joe had in mind when he wrote the part?

Anyone receive the 7SD newsletter today? The plan is to have a Google hangout session with Ken & Andy. Ken was looking for people to send in their Gmail e-mail info to participate. (Not sure if Irwin has mentioned that; I was on the phone for a bit.)

Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:40pm
Irwin:

RRN63 - Earthlings might be bad, but extraterrestrials SUCK. They're evil. You saw that TZ episode "To Serve Man"? They're ALL like that. And they have bad fashion sense. They dress like idiots. They think they're ahead of the curve, but they're so far behind. Brooklyn hipsters dress better and even their beards are better than those of aliens, who lack facial hair.

Since the alien society seems to follow the bee pattern, the alien in Alien would seem to be a male drone. But what do I know?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:52pm
Irwin:

Ike: I exaggerated. Nebraska made an offer. They're sort of like another planet.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:54pm
Caryn:

@Ike: Maybe if you started hanging out at secluded spots, preferably in the middle of Iowa or somewhere, and dressed like a stereotypical redneck and drove a pickup truck, the aliens would come, since that seems to be the one segment of Earth society that keeps getting picked up and probed by alien beings.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:58pm
ikє:

Heh, @Caryn, excellent point, but of course, most of us know better than to let the probers pick you up. Those jerks aren't even usually going anywhere but to other planets full of gullible rednecks.
