53:25:08 — Nothing “special”, really; just some recordings of me and Jessica walking around the Galleria mall on Black Friday. WITNESS the chaos, without worrying about being trampled upon by avaricious Americans, and FEEL the intensity of the third degree by a righteous security guard we run briefly afoul of. Other topics and random ambiance ensue.

1:04:39 — This week saw one of the first arrests under Alabama’s controversial new illegal immigration law. On this episode, I try to explain the law — best as I can understand it — and why it’s being used as a prop for my home state to go to war with the Obama admin. Also: the movie “Cape Fear” (original and remake), the Natalie Wood drowning case being reopened after 30 years, and why Blues musicians can’t get respect.

57:46:26 — Exhausted after taking the grueling Praxis test, I nevertheless sit down to do a show, fraught with weird ideas and suggestions, such as what to do with my body after I die, and quitting teaching altogether to open a video store. There’s a drinking game for this episode: take a shot of Ancient Age every time I say “You Know”.

1:14:40 — I start out with a review of the flick “Money Ball”, then go on to a few more rants, interspersed with the ritualistic smacking of Quaker Oat Meal Squares cereal, chased with a PBR. Fun stuff.

1:14:43 — After a month’s absence, I get on back to the microphone for another landmark episode. Actually, this is a show that was supposed to be posted weeks ago, just after Birmingham’s Sidewalk Film Festival in late August, but due to a slew of technical problems (no procrastination for once, I promise), it’s just going up now. It’s still cool and relevant, though, I swear!
On this episode, I’ve got an interview with Mark Trammell, pop culture and entertainment editor for UAB’s Kaleidoscope newspaper, who gives the most extensive review you’ll hear of the grassroots Sidewalk Film Festival. I talk with Mark about why Sidewalk matters in the film festival scene, and get a breakdown of all the independent flicks that played at this year’s event that you need to see. Tell your girlfriend, tell your parents — truly something for everybody!
