It's the "Weekend Show" on "I Love the Company". (Episode #236)

And... um... uh... I'm in camp.

Podcast Camp.

(Whatever that is!)

Seriously... there's a kind of a meet-up-kinda-thang goin' on here in New York City among podcasters and people associated with podcasting. So, I'm gonna head over there with James Marino and The Lovely Lisa to see what it's all about. I'm sure there are gonna be some people there from Podshow.com. Maybe I'll be able to make better sense out of where this is all going?

A couple of things I do know... I will be staring in Central Park in about a month.

We start on May 5th

That's very cool

AND... the "Weekend Show"is up right now. on ILTC. Just click on this logo to listen right now, or download it to listen whenever you feel like it.

Two beautiful and talented musical guests this weekend: Beth Thornley and Cassie Kubinski. (Click on their photo to visit their websites, find out more about their music, where they're playing, and how to get their music.)

Oh yeah... by the way. I'm writing a new song about one of the most pathetic blowhards in America today. (Still waiting to hear from the people over at Countdown with Keith Olbermann to see if they can help me out with a cool idea I had for this track. It's a raw work-in-progress that, hopefully, Dodger and I will take a serious run at next week. In the meantime...

...click on this photo for a little taste of it.

As I was mentioning on the show this weekend... this might just be the summer of video. Maybe this will be the year we really expand "I Love the Video" to include a lot more things from around this town and out in Central Park all summer, so we can share them with the rest of the country and all of you in different parts of the world who are reading this right now. My gig is really is a very cool thing that happens out there every weekend. And all around this town, cool shit goes down... all the time.

For instance... these are the photos I was talking about on "I Love the Company" today.
