WEBVTT

00:00.000 --> 00:06.000
Oh, yes, the daily source code
for March 29th, 2005.

00:06.000 --> 00:07.000
Yo, DJ!

00:07.000 --> 00:09.000
Are you done, Netflix?

00:09.000 --> 00:13.000
Your DJ has only just begun.

00:13.000 --> 00:18.000
It was $16 million worth of
airplane strapped my ass.

00:18.000 --> 00:21.000
Do the next generation radio
content in my ears.

00:21.000 --> 00:24.000
We don't need not sticking grids
in.

00:24.000 --> 00:27.000
I like to think I'm flying into
this jerk.

00:28.000 --> 00:29.000
I'm just kidding.

00:29.000 --> 00:30.000
It's Adam Curry.

00:30.000 --> 00:31.000
Hey everybody.

00:31.000 --> 00:34.000
Welcome to the daily source code
from Southfield.

00:34.000 --> 00:39.000
I'm going to go away.

00:39.000 --> 00:43.000
Let's stand there looking at me,
naked.

00:43.000 --> 00:47.000
The daily source code coming to
you from the balcony of our
wonderful

00:47.000 --> 00:50.000
Rent and condo here in South
Beach.

00:50.000 --> 00:53.000
Close to Miami Beach, Florida.

00:53.000 --> 01:00.000
Oh man, this is definitely going
to be a vacation cast.

01:00.000 --> 01:01.000
You don't mind.

01:01.000 --> 01:06.000
Probably underprepared, but how
many comments do I have to read?

01:06.000 --> 01:09.000
And how many emails do I have to
receive it?

01:09.000 --> 01:11.000
I just got to do some kind of
something, right?

01:11.000 --> 01:15.000
Got to get some kind of podcast
out there.

01:15.000 --> 01:17.000
Oh, shoot.

01:17.000 --> 01:19.000
I just just turned off all the
lights.

01:19.000 --> 01:22.000
I'm out on the balcony.

01:22.000 --> 01:28.000
This is one of those, you know,
kind of like the Miami Rice
condos that you see,

01:28.000 --> 01:36.000
the high rise is run the 19th
floor right now and have that
peasant out here.

01:36.000 --> 01:48.000
Time now is 5 a.m. UK time,
which makes it 11 p.m. here in
Miami.

01:48.000 --> 01:51.000
And we just got back from
dinner, which is always much,

01:51.000 --> 01:57.000
vacation time is always later
by, by definition, but it seems
like light here in general

01:57.000 --> 01:59.000
is just much later.

01:59.000 --> 02:00.000
And I'm on messed up.

02:00.000 --> 02:03.000
We're all jet lagging, crazy.

02:03.000 --> 02:11.000
So I really just wanted to talk
about a couple things about our
stay so far as you can tell.

02:11.000 --> 02:13.000
I'm pretty out of it.

02:13.000 --> 02:15.000
It's wow.

02:15.000 --> 02:17.000
We had a long plane ride,
Sunday.

02:17.000 --> 02:19.000
We left.

02:19.000 --> 02:21.000
We left the cottage.

02:21.000 --> 02:26.000
And we're able to get a direct
flight to Miami on British
airways.

02:26.000 --> 02:28.000
The flight was pretty much
unabentful.

02:28.000 --> 02:33.000
It was nice, you know, it was,
yeah, it was just, you know, a
typical 10 hour flight,

02:33.000 --> 02:37.000
which, oh man, it's like, you
think you're going to New York
and then a little bit,

02:37.000 --> 02:39.000
but you really are going like 10
hours.

02:39.000 --> 02:41.000
That's with the headwinds.

02:41.000 --> 02:44.000
On the way back, it would be a
little bit shorter, about eight
and a half hours.

02:44.000 --> 02:47.000
We just make sure I've got
enough volume here.

02:47.000 --> 02:50.000
I'm basically just, we just got
back from dinner and I said, you
know what?

02:50.000 --> 02:53.000
I just got to do a little, oh,
okay, I see what's going on.

02:53.000 --> 02:58.000
I have my volume turned down on
the, I'm back to old school now.

02:58.000 --> 03:00.000
Of course, I didn't bring my 19
inch rack.

03:00.000 --> 03:03.000
Don't have no valve or tube
processors.

03:03.000 --> 03:07.000
And I think like that, it's just
me the laptop and the
microphone.

03:07.000 --> 03:12.000
You hear that?

03:12.000 --> 03:18.000
So this is, I mean, the view is,
I'm going to take a picture.

03:18.000 --> 03:20.000
I tried to buy a camera the
other day.

03:20.000 --> 03:22.000
The one I wanted, they didn't
have in stock.

03:22.000 --> 03:24.000
So I decided just to wait until
I can get that one.

03:24.000 --> 03:29.000
But 19 floor, overlooking part
of the marina.

03:29.000 --> 03:35.000
And let's see, you've got a
straight shot of the downtown
Miami.

03:35.000 --> 03:38.000
And of course, on the other
side, you can see the beach.

03:38.000 --> 03:41.000
It is just absolutely
phenomenal.

03:41.000 --> 03:44.000
You've got these, the balcony
itself, I think of this.

03:44.000 --> 03:47.000
This is a two bedroom condo that
we're renting for, for 10 days.

03:47.000 --> 03:50.000
The balcony is probably like 800
square feet.

03:50.000 --> 03:53.000
It's just unbelievable.

03:53.000 --> 03:55.000
And the first, we were here
Sunday.

03:55.000 --> 03:57.000
So we got in Sunday, Sunday
night.

03:57.000 --> 04:00.000
You know, we went to bed like, I
don't know, 10 o'clock or
something like that.

04:00.000 --> 04:03.000
We got in late five or six p.m.

04:04.000 --> 04:07.000
And it was like the Wizard of
Oz, man, all of a sudden.

04:07.000 --> 04:09.000
It's just, there was so much
wind.

04:09.000 --> 04:12.000
And we knew it was going to be a
windy day Sunday and Monday.

04:12.000 --> 04:18.000
And it was just like, you know,
plans were flying by and pillows
were flying by.

04:18.000 --> 04:21.000
Excuse me.

04:21.000 --> 04:25.000
A little bit dusty up here.

04:25.000 --> 04:30.000
So even though it's vacation,
just a quick update.

04:30.000 --> 04:34.000
And actually, it hasn't been
100% vacation.

04:34.000 --> 04:36.000
Ron is in the same building.

04:36.000 --> 04:38.000
Oh, that's what you're just
turning the lights on again.

04:38.000 --> 04:40.000
He lives in this building.

04:40.000 --> 04:44.000
That's how we were able to get a
hold of this condo that we could
rent for the time while we're
here.

04:44.000 --> 04:49.000
So of course, we've been doing a
little bit of just a teensy
little bit of work.

04:49.000 --> 04:53.000
I mean, we've closed, I think,
six contracts in the past two
weeks.

04:53.000 --> 04:57.000
So we've really, really been
working in very hard.

04:57.000 --> 05:01.000
It's kind of convenient, but I
am officially on vacation.

05:01.000 --> 05:03.000
Haven't even checked out the
pool yet.

05:03.000 --> 05:05.000
I've been going through
infrastructure stuff.

05:05.000 --> 05:09.000
Had to get a wireless, you know,
a little d-link for the,

05:09.000 --> 05:13.000
because there was, there was
internet here in the, in the
apartment.

05:13.000 --> 05:19.000
But it basically, you know, a
cable motor with a Ethernet wire
coming out of it.

05:19.000 --> 05:25.000
So I went to the Apple store at
the Aventura Mall.

05:25.000 --> 05:29.000
I think giving shit away now at
the Apple store unbelievable.

05:29.000 --> 05:35.000
There must have been 20 to 25
people in line to pay
continuously.

05:35.000 --> 05:39.000
And all I really wanted was an
airport express.

05:39.000 --> 05:42.000
You know, one of those Wi-Fi
deals that you just, you know,

05:42.000 --> 05:45.000
it's a self-contained unit kind
of looks like the power adapter
that comes with the,

05:45.000 --> 05:47.000
with the power booking is plug
it in.

05:47.000 --> 05:50.000
And you've got your Wi-Fi and
you can also stream your iTunes
over it.

05:50.000 --> 05:53.000
I'm not going to make sure what
it costs, actually.

05:54.000 --> 05:56.000
It's got to be over $100,
actually.

05:56.000 --> 05:59.000
Let me take a look at, see, now
I'm on the balcony.

05:59.000 --> 06:03.000
I got my Wi-Fi, which of course
is not going to be an Apple
Wi-Fi,

06:03.000 --> 06:05.000
but you kind of guessed that
already.

06:05.000 --> 06:08.000
Oh yeah, no, now that I'm
recording on the,

06:08.000 --> 06:11.000
now that I'm recording on the
power book,

06:11.000 --> 06:16.000
it's kind of hard to use
firefox.

06:16.000 --> 06:18.000
Come on, now forget about it.

06:18.000 --> 06:22.000
So it's definitely more than the
49 box I paid for this little
mini d-link.

06:22.000 --> 06:31.000
Which is the 56 megabit per
second version, the 802.11G.

06:31.000 --> 06:34.000
And it's small, it's got, that's
probably got a better range,

06:34.000 --> 06:36.000
and you know, little antenna on
it.

06:36.000 --> 06:38.000
So it's perfectly happy with
that.

06:38.000 --> 06:40.000
Still looking for the perfect
windows machine to buy,

06:40.000 --> 06:45.000
to tote around both as my Skype
phone and my podcasting
recording set up.

06:45.000 --> 06:47.000
Haven't found that yet.

06:47.000 --> 06:50.000
And we just been, you know,
trying to chill a little bit.

06:50.000 --> 06:53.000
It's been getting used to the
time difference.

06:53.000 --> 06:56.000
You know, I've been traveling a
little bit more recently,

06:56.000 --> 06:59.000
so for me is, I don't know where
my ass is.

06:59.000 --> 07:03.000
I'm completely, completely
confused when it comes to all
time zones.

07:03.000 --> 07:07.000
Yeah, there's a night flight
coming in from somewhere.

07:07.000 --> 07:11.000
Flying almost overhead the
marina.

07:11.000 --> 07:14.000
So the girls are just a little
bit jet lag,

07:14.000 --> 07:16.000
but they're getting better.

07:17.000 --> 07:20.000
As I said, this is just going to
be a short little update
podcast,

07:20.000 --> 07:23.000
just to let you know that I'm
still alive.

07:23.000 --> 07:30.000
Oh, and by the way, something
that was troubling me for a
couple of days

07:30.000 --> 07:33.000
was what really happened to
Billy Ocean.

07:33.000 --> 07:34.000
I don't remember where we
played.

07:34.000 --> 07:36.000
The numberally hurts without
you.

07:36.000 --> 07:39.000
And a whole bunch of people sent
me basically the same story

07:39.000 --> 07:41.000
that Tom sent me.

07:42.000 --> 07:47.000
And of course, I put this on the
show notes on curry.com.

07:47.000 --> 07:52.000
But after his 1994 smash at
Caribbean Queen,

07:52.000 --> 07:54.000
and over the next five years,

07:54.000 --> 07:59.000
Billy Ocean topped US and
international charts with
suddenly lover boy.

07:59.000 --> 08:01.000
They'll be sad songs when the
going gets tough,

08:01.000 --> 08:03.000
get out of my dreams.

08:03.000 --> 08:07.000
Well, Billy Ocean, after that
sadly, apparently fell into
drugs,

08:07.000 --> 08:10.000
went to prison and obscurity in
the 1990s.

08:10.000 --> 08:13.000
But after recovery and spiritual
renewal,

08:13.000 --> 08:16.000
Billy returned to his native
Trinidad in 2002

08:16.000 --> 08:18.000
as earned notable respect,

08:18.000 --> 08:21.000
and adulation from schools of
fine and performing arts.

08:21.000 --> 08:24.000
He's now a grain, bearded,
dreadlocked elder in his 50s.

08:24.000 --> 08:27.000
He enjoys gardening, playing
pan,

08:27.000 --> 08:30.000
and occasionally touring Europe.

08:30.000 --> 08:32.000
At least he's alive, man.

08:32.000 --> 08:35.000
There's so many people who
didn't make it through all of
that.

08:35.000 --> 08:39.000
It's pretty tough to hear about
Billy.

08:40.000 --> 08:45.000
Let's take a little quick walk
up and down the balcony here.

08:45.000 --> 08:50.000
Hold on, let me take off the
headphones.

08:50.000 --> 08:54.000
So I'm now kind of like at the
corner, which means,

08:54.000 --> 08:56.000
I guess this is the, what is
that?

08:56.000 --> 09:00.000
That would be the eastern
corner, I think?

09:00.000 --> 09:03.000
No, that would be east.

09:03.000 --> 09:07.000
So the northern corner, that's
it, right?

09:07.000 --> 09:10.000
Looking over the marina.

09:10.000 --> 09:13.000
Maybe you can hear the traffic
down below on the causeway.

09:13.000 --> 09:15.000
This is actually the wind's
picked up a little bit.

09:15.000 --> 09:17.000
You probably hear some of that
rustling through.

09:17.000 --> 09:20.000
So I'm walking back again.

09:20.000 --> 09:21.000
Nice corner shroud here.

09:21.000 --> 09:24.000
This is dining room table.

09:24.000 --> 09:26.000
All kind of normal stuff.

09:26.000 --> 09:28.000
You know, it's crazy though.

09:28.000 --> 09:30.000
So this place is basically
glass, right?

09:30.000 --> 09:35.000
It's glass on two sides, big
sliding doors.

09:35.000 --> 09:40.000
And the three of us, Christina
Patricia and myself,

09:40.000 --> 09:43.000
have at least once, but I've
actually done a twice.

09:43.000 --> 09:48.000
I've walked into the glass, even
though the doors have been slid
open,

09:48.000 --> 09:49.000
so you can walk through.

09:49.000 --> 09:51.000
I just, I don't know what it is.

09:51.000 --> 09:53.000
You know, it's like, probably
just mindlessness.

09:53.000 --> 09:54.000
Just kind of walking around.

09:54.000 --> 09:56.000
Oh, I'm going to walk outside
and bunk.

09:56.000 --> 10:00.000
I bumped into it, Christina
bumped into it.

10:00.000 --> 10:01.000
Patricia was the best.

10:01.000 --> 10:02.000
She had a sandwich.

10:02.000 --> 10:05.000
She bumped into into the glass
sliding door,

10:05.000 --> 10:08.000
and there's like sandwich all
over the door.

10:08.000 --> 10:10.000
Oh, my goodness.

10:10.000 --> 10:11.000
Okay.

10:11.000 --> 10:13.000
Let me get the headphones back
on here.

10:13.000 --> 10:16.000
So, let me see.

10:16.000 --> 10:17.000
What have we gotten?

10:17.000 --> 10:19.000
Like, a 10 minutes is almost
nothing.

10:19.000 --> 10:21.000
A couple of things, just a
little bit of business.

10:21.000 --> 10:23.000
I got a take care of here.

10:23.000 --> 10:25.000
A couple of promos that I
promised I'd play,

10:25.000 --> 10:26.000
otherwise I'd get into trouble.

10:26.000 --> 10:27.000
So check these off.

10:27.000 --> 10:31.000
Hey, Adam, how's it going?

10:31.000 --> 10:35.000
It's reges here and I got a
little trivia question for you.

10:35.000 --> 10:37.000
What do you get when you take a
guy like me

10:37.000 --> 10:40.000
who could his job in the public
schools to be self-employed?

10:40.000 --> 10:43.000
I mean, I don't work, but I'm
not unemployed.

10:43.000 --> 10:46.000
A dad who's a domestic engineer
by day,

10:46.000 --> 10:48.000
karaoke DJ by night.

10:48.000 --> 10:50.000
I mean, I make money, but I
don't work.

10:50.000 --> 10:53.000
And finally, a guy that's
unlucky in love and careers,

10:53.000 --> 10:56.000
did you know that you can file
for an appointment on line now?

10:56.000 --> 10:58.000
Mix them all together, and what
do you got?

10:58.000 --> 10:59.000
Not sure.

10:59.000 --> 11:01.000
Well, here's a little audio clue
for you.

11:10.000 --> 11:12.000
Let's put them on me to have a
career.

11:12.000 --> 11:14.000
Hello, a career.

11:19.000 --> 11:20.000
And there's your answer.

11:20.000 --> 11:22.000
A show called The Unemployment
Line.

11:22.000 --> 11:25.000
For you guys podcasting at a
Tuesday morning because

11:25.000 --> 11:27.000
we have no jobs.

11:27.000 --> 11:30.000
Find us on the web at
unemploymentcho.com.

11:30.000 --> 11:33.000
And now, back to you, Adam, in
the studio.

11:35.000 --> 11:39.000
In the studio, out on the
balcony here in the lovely South
Beach, Florida.

11:39.000 --> 11:44.000
On the vacation, I've been
looking forward to this for a
while.

11:44.000 --> 11:46.000
We really needed some sun and
sunshine.

11:46.000 --> 11:47.000
We will get it.

11:47.000 --> 11:48.000
It's been 80 degrees.

11:48.000 --> 11:50.000
Except for the first.

11:50.000 --> 11:56.000
Excuse me, the first day, as I
said, Monday, Sunday through
Monday was just

11:56.000 --> 11:59.000
a little windy.

11:59.000 --> 12:01.000
And it's just going to be great
tomorrow again.

12:01.000 --> 12:02.000
I don't know what we're going to
do.

12:02.000 --> 12:03.000
We're just going to chill out.

12:03.000 --> 12:05.000
We know we're going to vote over
here.

12:05.000 --> 12:09.000
One thing that I do know for
100% for sure is in this week,

12:09.000 --> 12:12.000
Ron and I are going to do a
podcast together.

12:12.000 --> 12:15.000
I'm going to interview him.

12:15.000 --> 12:17.000
Let's find out what he's been
working on.

12:17.000 --> 12:18.000
And you guys know what?

12:18.000 --> 12:19.000
I've been working on.

12:19.000 --> 12:20.000
Let's find out what he's been
working on.

12:20.000 --> 12:23.000
Maybe we can make some damage
announcements already, you know?

12:26.000 --> 12:34.000
Hello, Adam, just a brief promo
to invite you and all your
listeners to

12:34.000 --> 12:36.000
check out the latest edition of
digital flats.

12:36.000 --> 12:40.000
This is our show number 11, the
one pound edition.

12:40.000 --> 12:43.000
And it promises to be the most
explosive edition ever.

12:43.000 --> 12:46.000
We can be found at the directory
at ipodder.org.

12:46.000 --> 12:48.000
Come give us a listen.

12:48.000 --> 12:49.000
Thanks a lot, Adam.

12:50.000 --> 12:51.000
Peace out.

12:51.000 --> 12:52.000
PW Fender.

12:52.000 --> 12:55.000
I'd like to tell you, it's one
of my favorite podcasts, digital

12:55.000 --> 12:56.000
flats.

12:56.000 --> 12:57.000
I look forward to it.

12:57.000 --> 12:59.000
Every single weekend when it
comes out.

12:59.000 --> 13:01.000
It's usually out Friday or
Saturday, depending on when my
ipodder

13:01.000 --> 13:02.000
picks it up.

13:02.000 --> 13:03.000
It is.

13:03.000 --> 13:07.000
It's always a theme based show
and just some great music.

13:07.000 --> 13:09.000
PW's got a great voice.

13:09.000 --> 13:11.000
And I just, you know, the themes
are good.

13:11.000 --> 13:13.000
I really, really, really enjoy
it.

13:13.000 --> 13:15.000
I know that the one pound
edition is a great story.

13:15.000 --> 13:17.000
So make sure you check that out.

13:17.000 --> 13:20.000
You know, I'm going to save all
the stuff that I had for
tomorrow.

13:20.000 --> 13:24.000
I got a mash up with the, so you
got a Kylie Britney mash up.

13:24.000 --> 13:26.000
I got a Joan Jett Queen mash up.

13:26.000 --> 13:28.000
Got a couple of pod save tunes.

13:28.000 --> 13:33.000
I might even just run to iTunes
and buy something because of the
weather is just so inspiring.

13:33.000 --> 13:37.000
So I'm going to cut it
reasonably short for tonight.

13:37.000 --> 13:39.000
And we'll be back tomorrow.

13:39.000 --> 13:41.000
Sometimes in the afternoon with
a longer edition.

13:41.000 --> 13:44.000
So I'll post this as I guess
Tuesday's show.

13:44.000 --> 13:48.000
If I could still get it
compressed and get it up to the
server on time.

13:48.000 --> 13:50.000
And tomorrow I'll be back with
more.

13:50.000 --> 13:52.000
I'll be a little more coherent.

13:52.000 --> 13:54.000
Still just a little bit jet lag,
but one let you know.

13:54.000 --> 13:55.000
I'm alive.

13:55.000 --> 13:56.000
We're having a good time.

13:56.000 --> 13:58.000
Stuff is moving ahead.

13:58.000 --> 14:02.000
And it's all happening in South
Beach, baby.

14:02.000 --> 14:04.000
On the balcony.

14:04.000 --> 14:07.000
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

14:07.000 --> 14:08.000
All right.

14:08.000 --> 14:10.000
Should have any questions about
this.

14:11.000 --> 14:14.000
Rather under-performing show,
short as it is.

14:14.000 --> 14:18.000
Atamercurry.com or through the
problem at www.curry.com.

14:18.000 --> 14:25.000
DailySourceco.com for the pod
show, pod cast feed, and for the
latest, and the archive.

14:25.000 --> 14:28.000
So how are all the people in
charge?

14:28.000 --> 14:29.000
I'm off to bed, man.

14:29.000 --> 14:30.000
I've had it.

14:30.000 --> 14:31.000
I'll see you all tomorrow.

14:31.000 --> 14:32.000
I'll take care.

14:33.750 --> 14:56.250
