  Thanks for listening. The news cycle has been evolving so rapidly in the past couple of weeks that it's been tough staying up-to-date. Trade Deals, Gay Marriage, and of course, the Charleston shootings. I intended for this show to focus on Charleston and the Confederate flag, but it veered into many other areas, as often happens with TDS. I was happy that Neil Young and Poco worked (at least to my ears) so effectively in this context. Skynyrd and the others, too.

Some discourse on the Accu about the microcassette recorder and the "brassy" or "tinny" sound quality of the show, and whether it's annoying or too cutting over time and produces audio fatigue. I feel that it kind of does and it's a bummer, as I've been doing it this way since '98! I struggle with digital field recording as I feel my thin voice gets lost in the ether and has no distinguishing characteristics. Still, it might be better than the high-hiss microcassette sound. Not sure if you're enjoying these pre-produced shows. They don't have the immediacy of live, or the unpredictability, but I enjoy the editing and the control. Ah, heck. Same old questions. Issues. It never ends. Every week is a mad (but, usually fun) scramble to pull something together by showtime.

Filled in for Dave The Spazz on June 25th at 9pm. That link is available in the archives. Check it out if you would. I really had fun playing old records, taking calls, etc. Thanks to Dave the Spazz for allowing me to do that. He is a great guy and a good buddy to me. OK, it' Saturday night and I'm signing off to enjoy some weekend, although I seem to spend 50% of my "free" time putting records away. Ugh. Downloading grows more and more appealing to me.

Take care, have a fun summer, and keep checking in. I appreciate your listening. Always remember. CP62715SOCRANR99S.O.

I can't figure it our, Iris. That "she'll do more good where she is," argument is frustrating. We NEED her. Hillary seems like she'll be the same old story. I'll vote for her, though, before any of the 14 in the clown car.
