TC 118 - Always check, it might be mate

Well, it's done. It was a fun, challenging and exciting process to put this one together. This is an example of the direction I'd like to take the Tokyo Calling podcast (what am I signing myself on to do?) - there are other ideas in the works as well.

I'm not quite sure how to describe this one. The phrase "audio melange" came up in the Twitter this past week. If you have any ideas about what to call this sort of thing (besides steaming hunk of junk), leave a comment. Oh and another one of these will be coming around next week in conjunction with the live recording on TalkShoe. If you can find the time, would love to have you join in.

scott, i really like this a lot! (not just because it's mostly about me and you give me some awesome criticisms of my shit-chess playing in a nice and sly way...)

this does, however sound like it was a lot of work, and just so you know the previous format was also awesome.

i love this journal-kind of insight though, and i think it will only expand once you get a bit more comfortable with it!

really great stuff! sorry for missing chess with you!

Great episode Scott.

I was laughing when your kids called you the Tooth Gorilla.

Sounds like you've been rumbled.

I'm only on episode 70 right now, but i'm working my way here. Thanks for a great podcast. You've even inspired me to create my own. Head to my blog and let me know what you think!

Scott,

I like what you are doing with the show. It is more fast-paced.

BTW, I didn't know that inflation has hit the Tooth Fairy too (300 Yen). I remember getting 50 cents or a dollar, and I am not that old.

Hi Scott,

Shoot me an email sometime if you're for an online chess partner. I play on yahoo occassionally, it's been awhile since I've messed with FICS - but I'm sure I can set it up.

You sound like you might be above my ability, though..
