Thanks for showin' up today.
Today on "I Love the Company", got a couple of artists from the Podsafe Network. (One I've never played on the show before.) And, I'm gonna play the new hit song... (Well, it's a hit in my own mind.) ... "Bill O'Reilly: The Legend of the Big Giant Head".
But, I'm also gonna play a bunch of your phone comments.
(More about the "O'Reilly" song and the YouTube video further down the page.)
Y'know... this past weekend we had a massive amount of rain here in New York City. I mean, the subways flooded. The roads flooded. It was a mess. But hopefully Spring will get here in the next couple of weeks so we're ready to get out for another season in Central Park together.

We start again on May 5th
Before anything else today, you can click on this logo to listen to ILTC # 241 right now or download it to check it out whenever you want. (In fact, you can always subscribe to the show and get it automatically by hitting that itunes button over there.)

Like I said, besides the new song I've got a couple of very cool musical guests on the show today, both from the Podsafe Music Network: Drew Gibson and Laura Clapp. (Click on their photo to visit their website, find out more about them, where they're playing, and how to get their music.)
. 
Okay, now about "...The Big Giant Head".
I'd really love it if you guys shot it around the internet like you did with "Tom Cruise Scares Me" a while back. (There's a new verse in that song, by the way... about Donald Trump.) I reeeeallllly want you guys to go check out the video for the O'Reilly song on YouTube and email the link to your friends. Threw the damned thing together in a couple of hours.
Go to YouTube and in the search box, write his name and my name:
Bill O'Reilly David Ippolito
Ha! That'll take you to directly to the video!!! Then, let me know what you think about it.

Actually...
... I think it'd be a blast if O'Reilly ever got wind of it!
Anyway, I gotta get rollin'. Me and Dodger have a new album to finish by late Spring. But, before I go I'll ask you again to call the show. Here are the phone numbers for you guys to call and leave a message for me, or a comment, or make a request, or express an opinion... or to give a shout to me or any of the artists you hear on the podcast.
Anywhere in North America:
646-224-8162
In Europe:
+44 845 280 6622
And soon, I'm gonna be doing a separate podcast... looking for artists, especially the young guns, the youngbloods, who are writing and performing music that lyrically speaks to what's goin' on in the world today. That will most likely be a podcast called "Where's the Voice", after my song of the same name.
Keep checkin' back, okay?
Very cool.
For now... if you're new around here, go back through the "Archives" and check out some other shows. All 241 are still here for you to download.
See you guys back here next time.
D'oh!!! And, oh yeah...
I wanna let you all know that the Central Park Permit Fund for '07 is continuing. (Could really use everybody's help with that effort. You can click on any of these links or the PayPal button over there on the right, under The Weather section.) It also helps keep the podcast going strong every weekday. Damn! It's turned into a full time job, keepin' it goin'!
I think I'll see you back here every day this week. Bring a few friends around. "I Love the Company"!
Thanks again.
