Favoriting March 17, 2015: Going Clear (of our money woes!)

See You Next Tuesday! #59: Going Clear (of our moneyl woes)!
View this in your browser.
Tonight: Going Clear (of our money woes)
Tonight, for the first time ever, my show will use Scientology practices, including the ACTUAL Oxford Capacity Analysis AND L. Ron Hubbard's own affirmations (or incantations), to put WFMU  "On the Bridge" to "Going Clear" of our money woes and freeing our body Thetans (all of whom we expect a pledge from)!

Aerial View is the ONLY WFMU show during this year's Fundraising Marathon to offer this service! My MC and I will be staring at Ken Freedman's black velvet L. Ron Hubbard portrait (above) and ignoring all Suppressive Persons and Potential Trouble Spots.

Please help us SURGE toward our goal: offer your monetary vote of confidence for my show. Many of you have yet to take the plunge and pledge -  I'm asking you to weigh in tonight. Let me know you'd like Aerial View to stick around. Only YOU can "Keep Needle In This Area"!
The Aerial View Premium this year - yours for a pledge of just $75 or more - is the 4th edition of the Aerial View lighter. This - like the previous three lighters - is a limited-editor, only available this year during the Marathon. Then it will be retired.

The 2015 Edition lighter has a beautiful goldtone finish and features the Chris T. "Ace Face" illustration by Two-Fisted Titan of Gusto Jack "Hot Wahini" Taylor. Check it out:

 If you've been enjoying this newsletter and the kickass radio show that accompanies it, please pledge by calling 800-989-WFMU or going to wfmu.org. And remember: you can also adopt me!

And, of course, there are PRIZES, including a copy of former Aerial View guest Miriam Linna's new book I Fought The Law: The Life and Strange Death of Bobby Fuller and from Sub Pop Records founder Bruce Pavitt, the lavishly-illustrated photo book Experiencing Nirvana: Grunge In Europe, 1989.
I Fought The Law book cover.

There's also a DVD of one of my favorite Charlie Chaplin films, The Gold Rush. You can be in the running for any of these for a pledge of just $20 or more. But you can't be a winner if you don't pledge to Aerial View!

Last Week: Under Pressure
Last week Jim the Poet of Sportsy Talk joined me as we paid tribute to the film Idiocracy and he threw balls at my balls so I could atone for my initial lack of support for a sports talk show on WFMU. I'll admit it: I WAS WRONG! And let me add OW! MY BALLS!

Here are some playlist comments:
  • I'll be posting instructions for 3D-printing the "extra parts" needed to convert the Aerial View Lighter to a pistol, "Man with the Golden Gun" style. watch this space for info.
  • Please, no hurting! We know you guys love what you do, but so do we, and it'd be mean for us to inflict physical pain on you just to raise $.
  • The Chris T and Jim colab works. Two good talkers talking.
  • What's the ruling on wearing a cup during all this ball smacking?
  • I found my father sitting on the edge of my bed reading the Playboys I had stashed under my bed when I was 18. Weird awkward moment. He was smiling so he didn't give a shit.
  • Not the best beer name ever though - that would be Schlitz. No matter how many you have and how bombed you get you still pronounce it exactly the same.

Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:24pm
Caryn:

The thing is, if you'd just gone on with the affirmations, the Scientologists wouldn't necessarily been terribly upset. Heck, they might've seen it as advertising. But this conversation is gonna upset them. So, Philip from Brooklyn might have stirred the pot unwittingly...

I was invited to see “Modest Mouse” play at a very early gig of theirs in Seattle in the 1990s. Friends preferred to stay at home with some rambling Japanese mental case artist who just would ramble and berate me and mention his .22 caliber gun every so often. He also had rotting cabbage in his fridge. So many reasons I should have gone to see “Modest Mouse.”
  6:45pm

Wait did your buddy eat paste or glue Chris T. Yes it matters.

BTW, I've noticed that Jenna in Finland's been donating a *LOT* of cash to a *lot* of shows on WFMU this year. Simply awesome. =)

I love the Bond movies. They're showing them all in order on tv again, and heck, I'm watching again. Doesn't matter that I have them all on DVD, doesn't matter how often I've seen them, I'm still drawn in.
  6:52pm

Roger Moore is my favorite Bond, btw. (P.S., Live and Let Die was awesome!) =D

@ChrisT that's called OCD obsessive compulsive disorder

Chris T., you should have played Harry Chapin’s “Cat’s in the Cradle” when that kid was around. I mean, that kid was clearly abandoned, right>

Scotty E.:

I want the FMU flow change service
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:55pm
Caryn:

Dalton is probably the one that was the closest to the Bond of the books. Craig is a close second in that regard, with Connery coming third. (This is not my criteria for judging fave Bonds, but I'm just saying that this is how it goes.)

Are you guys giving The Hunger movie as a marathon prize?

Brosnan was a lousy, unoriginal Bond, and his movies went badly awry.

Thought id throw my 2 cents in: i think pierce brosnan is the worst Bond ever - Chris M thinks he is the best - we strongly disagree on this
