I 07:49.560 --> 07:55.480 I really didn't do much much else this weekend although I have been looking out the window. It's I'll see if I can take a picture of that 07:57.720 --> 07:59.720 y'all on the on the 08:00.040 --> 08:05.560 You know in the upper 20 floors on uh in this building here the curry condo and I have a 180 degree view 08:05.560 --> 08:10.680 So I have a view of the bay the bay bridge and of course the tower of death which by the way 08:10.680 --> 08:12.520 I now actually have to 08:12.520 --> 08:18.360 Squat down to be able to see the top of this thing through my window which is a ceiling to floor window 08:18.360 --> 08:22.280 This is out it is literally the towering in front of I was been built next to the condo 08:23.160 --> 08:29.000 On the other side I can see a straight down.

I believe it's the worldwide developers conference 08:33.320 --> 08:38.360 That is taking place. I guess this week and so there's lots of people in town have been receiving emails from people 08:38.680 --> 08:42.760 Who know I'm in town and want to hook up and so it's gonna be a pretty busy week.

It really took me a long time to figure this one out 10:11.400 --> 10:13.160 The best laid plans 10:13.160 --> 10:17.320 Sell them become the desired outcome in a perfect world of business 10:17.640 --> 10:19.640 Alex controls every situation 10:20.200 --> 10:27.480 But when agreements fall to pieces and associates are winding up dead and new world emerges and the bitch within 10:27.720 --> 10:31.320 I'm new life to complete the final plays of the game 10:31.880 --> 10:40.360 Relying on the pure powers of sexual persuasion the rules have changed and the lines are crossed between business and the art of 10:40.520 --> 10:45.960 Sex and the realities of bitchiness from the imagination of Terry Woodard 10:46.520 --> 10:49.960 ASB the art of sex and bitchiness 10:50.200 --> 10:57.560 We're nothing is safe and the easiest way to be friend of foe is absolute sexual enticement 10:57.960 --> 11:04.840 Coming exclusively to pod show this summer the art of sex and bitchiness the erotic murder mystery 11:04.840 --> 11:08.680 That will make you second guess who you get into bed with 11:09.160 --> 11:14.200 I can't wait for that a lot of these a lot of these audio novels are just so awesome 11:14.200 --> 11:17.000 There was another one.

Gee guys that was a great one 11:39.560 --> 11:43.960 I'm not forget Doncats that you tried to weasel me into that trying to endorse that 11:45.160 --> 11:47.160 So that didn't pan out 11:47.160 --> 11:51.640 But this is you know it's it's this thing is it's exciting you know I'm I'm listening to these 11:52.200 --> 11:57.800 Books and I'll listen to a chapter and only they're only released a chapter at a time and it's almost like sticking the needle in you know 11:58.280 --> 12:02.200 Because what is a chapter like five minutes maybe ten minutes you know it's like I want more 12:02.280 --> 12:06.760 I want more than you have to wait until the next episode and by the time the next episode comes you know you listen to that thing 12:06.760 --> 12:10.200 You're hooked and then you're hooked to this whole thing and then of course you want the book 12:11.000 --> 12:17.240 It's as very exciting to me. It's very much the same principle as the pod safe music network and I am loving it 12:18.520 --> 12:20.520 I got a lot of email from people 12:20.760 --> 12:22.760 Telling me I was pretty stupid about saying that 12:24.040 --> 12:26.040 Let the sunshine in 12:26.760 --> 12:30.440 It's from the soundtrack to hair not the Jesus Christ Superstar 12:31.400 --> 12:34.760 Was that last Friday that I said that now that that wasn't indeed pretty stupid 12:34.760 --> 12:37.480 But it came from the first gen iPod, you know, so what can you say? 12:39.240 --> 12:41.240 Friday before I left New York, let's see 12:41.960 --> 12:43.240 Oh, yeah 12:43.240 --> 12:46.040 So I had a nice well of course I did the show Friday morning 12:47.080 --> 12:51.880 I was relatively early and then I had a lunch and this was really nice. I had a lunch with 12:53.320 --> 12:56.600 Brenda Brenda was one of my mom's best friends who I remember 12:57.560 --> 13:02.200 I think I must have been maybe six years old or something like that because they both grew up together 13:02.200 --> 13:04.200 They they grew up in in Rhode Island 13:05.400 --> 13:12.760 And they went to a barrington high school together and so I do remember one time going back visiting with my mom and 13:14.120 --> 13:16.120 And I was playing with Brenda's daughter 13:17.640 --> 13:19.640 Sarah I believe and 13:20.360 --> 13:24.120 I remember Brenda was hot.

What is it uncle Uncle Nick's Greek restaurant on night Avenue between 50th and 51st 15:54.600 --> 16:00.040 We sat outside between the fire escapes it was it that by itself was almost a very surprised moment 16:00.520 --> 16:06.760 And we talked some industry shit and he had some pretty good ideas about some things and and some some folks who we could 16:06.760 --> 16:10.920 Work with the pod show so that's stuff. I'll be working on this week here at HQ 16:13.400 --> 16:17.960 Let me see a little ketchup here on some other email and then of course I flew 16:18.520 --> 16:23.640 On Saturday morning. I flew with sales weasel Greg and I took the early morning jet blue flight 16:24.280 --> 16:26.280 From JFK to San Francisco 16:26.280 --> 16:31.880 I have to say besides the back pain which I just get because I get it back pain from sitting too long anywhere 16:32.440 --> 16:34.440 Even in my own plane 16:35.400 --> 16:39.800 Jet blue's got something going for it. I've said that before and and I figured out what it is first of all 16:39.800 --> 16:46.040 There is enough room and it took out one row of seats. So they only have 25 rows now and for those of you fly jet blue 16:46.200 --> 16:51.560 There is a little bit more leg room from exit row 10 for or exit row 13 and exit row 10 16:52.040 --> 16:54.040 Forward. That's where there's a little bit more room 16:55.320 --> 16:59.160 So the whole whole point was that we were gonna fly you know, I was gonna fly back with him 16:59.160 --> 17:02.760 You know instead of flying two separate flights. I was booked on jet blue anyway 17:03.480 --> 17:09.800 So so let's try and sit together, man, and we got to row 25 last seat by the lavatories next to a 17:10.520 --> 17:12.520 Lady and a baby on our lap 17:12.520 --> 17:16.840 We were really expecting the worst, but it was not that bad the stank was okay 17:18.680 --> 17:22.920 Well, you know, don't you just hate it when people will stand next to you in the aisle and you're the 17:22.920 --> 17:26.600 Basically you're putting your their ass in your face. Oh my god 17:27.400 --> 17:31.720 The baby was adorable though. All I did was a gurgle and smile throughout the entire trip 17:31.800 --> 17:34.840 So happy about that, but what really makes Jeb Blue cool is 17:35.720 --> 17:42.520 The live television and there is a distinct difference between you know 20 channels of movies 17:42.760 --> 17:45.240 Like you get on virgin Atlantic now. That's great. I have to you know 17:45.240 --> 17:51.240 I'll tell you that I really love their selection. They refresh it every single month. There's plenty of stuff to look at 17:51.480 --> 17:57.720 But live television. Wow. That's a real time wester at the flight just goes by in no time because you know 17:57.720 --> 18:01.320 You get hooked. We were watching the this was so this was so typical 18:01.800 --> 18:06.360 It was the VH1 classic highway a top 20 18:07.800 --> 18:13.400 Road song countdown and it was sponsored by Lexus and clearly I think what they did is 18:14.280 --> 18:18.280 Lexus said okay, we want to we want to advertise but you got to make up a show for us 18:18.280 --> 18:24.520 Which you know, it happens all the time and and we do some of that too at Pod Show only with these guys came up with 18:25.080 --> 18:30.840 The brought out Mark Goodman to host the show was it was kind of fun seeing Mark Goodman on the tube doing that 18:31.720 --> 18:37.560 But the choice of videos man, so the the first one was what they have 18:38.840 --> 18:41.880 Man Gregson kick my asset for God already but you know they had like 18:42.840 --> 18:45.880 Steppenwolf born to be wild what was the first one though? 18:46.440 --> 18:49.000 Yeah, it was all off because all of a sudden you got like rock set 18:50.680 --> 18:53.800 It was all kinds of really you know pink Cadillac 18:55.800 --> 19:00.440 Free way of love. I think and I know exactly how this works. You know of course VH1 being basically 19:00.920 --> 19:06.360 The same company as MTV the same folks who work at MTV will sometimes produce on VH1 19:07.000 --> 19:09.640 You know all they do is think okay, we got to highway songs 19:09.640 --> 19:11.480 They don't really give a shit about an order 19:11.720 --> 19:16.840 Which song is supposed to be number one? It's just okay. Let's just make sure we play videos that they either mentioned 19:18.440 --> 19:20.760 Cars in the title you see cars in the video 19:21.960 --> 19:27.160 And we were just guessing which one come next and it was it was a pretty fun list and before you knew what we were there 19:28.120 --> 19:32.040 And I stayed indoors all day today as I said watching you know all that soprano stuff 19:32.040 --> 19:37.320 So I'm ready for a full week. We kick it off tomorrow morning eight o'clock. I am so ready 19:39.320 --> 19:43.000 But go to LA if I stay overnight. I might even try and catch the jersey boys again 19:43.560 --> 19:47.080 You know the San Francisco cast is now in Los Angeles 19:47.640 --> 19:49.320 Oh and homeless second where is it? 19:50.440 --> 19:55.640 Alison Eric Bergen's mom you know Eric of course is is my buddy you hook me up with tickets to the show 19:56.280 --> 19:59.800 He got a review man.

She's also in the show 20:11.240 --> 20:16.360 Now check this out. Let me just read you a little bit about what they said about Eric. This was fucking awesome 20:16.360 --> 20:19.560 Here we go. This is the Los Angeles Times calendar section 20:21.240 --> 20:23.240 Ehh 20:23.720 --> 20:25.720 An odd development 20:26.360 --> 20:27.720 Why is that the one I'm supposed to say? 20:27.720 --> 20:35.000 An odd development is that Eric Bergen who plays Bob Godeo the songwriting genius behind the four seasons and the band member who claims to be more comfortable 20:35.000 --> 20:38.120 Working behind the scenes is the show's breakout star 20:39.000 --> 20:45.240 Is charisma feeds off the spotlight and with this lanky good looks and vibrant intensity and fucking hot girlfriend 20:45.480 --> 20:50.040 He tends to eclipse the others in the musical numbers which are choreographed by Sergio Trujillo 20:50.520 --> 20:54.680 Trujillo Sergio to evoke the old sixties moves 20:57.560 --> 21:03.080 That's pretty good man and it goes on and on actually to say here just as the four seasons 21:03.080 --> 21:06.520 Probably wouldn't have made it out of Belleville New Jersey without the hitmaking of Godio 21:07.080 --> 21:11.960 This version of the band almost certainly wouldn't have gotten much farther than Newark without the charm of Bergen 21:12.280 --> 21:16.360 Who fills the void left by Jones is amiable though low wattage valley 21:17.000 --> 21:21.080 Oh man what an endorsement congratulations Eric. I couldn't be more happy for you man 21:21.960 --> 21:27.160 That is so cool. I'm telling you this guy you brought way dude. You're totally gonna do the Broadway version 21:27.160 --> 21:31.640 I hope you do at least. I think you'd be killer without a doubt 21:34.200 --> 21:36.200 The opening of the show you heard 21:37.480 --> 21:39.480 A nice promo from Jones yet 21:39.480 --> 21:44.520 Now normally it wouldn't take away the magic of this and you know so you probably think wow that's a cool 21:44.600 --> 21:46.600 John Jets and Adam 21:46.600 --> 21:48.600 You know like a cool jingle 21:50.120 --> 21:51.640 In reality 21:51.640 --> 21:57.000 Do you remember when I for those of you who have been listening that long when I left the curry castle in Belgium 21:57.000 --> 21:59.000 when we moved to the United Kingdom 21:59.400 --> 22:05.320 I took the box now I've been slipping around a box of air checks of radio shows of 22:05.880 --> 22:12.040 Basically cassettes and a couple of real-to-reels that is you know it's been my history and I sent it off to the official 22:12.920 --> 22:16.440 My official biographer Tom Scrooting clog walked down under 22:17.320 --> 22:22.840 And he's been digitizing old radio shows and stuff he's been you know just been going through this box 22:22.840 --> 22:26.760 I thought the box was kind of empty but apparently he still has stuff and 22:27.880 --> 22:33.800 He found something from me. Well, this is from I it's got to be 1989 22:33.800 --> 22:41.240 Let me just play with that thing again. Hi. This is Jones yet from the black horse and you're listening to Adam Curry on z100 22:41.480 --> 22:43.480 See that part I cut off 22:44.120 --> 22:50.360 Hi, this is Jones yet from the black horse and you're listening to mad cap Adam Curry on z100 22:52.760 --> 22:56.200 It sounds like it came from a cassette done it anyway 22:58.280 --> 23:02.360 So Tom sends me something else. He sends me a picture of a video cassette 23:02.840 --> 23:04.840 Let me just see the subject of the email 23:05.880 --> 23:08.360 Is a proof oh oh home on for some reason 23:09.160 --> 23:11.160 Well, that's kind of weird 23:11.560 --> 23:17.800 Google notebook didn't quite keep it the way I want here we go proof of your early programming skills he sends me a picture 23:18.840 --> 23:24.440 I got even it's so I got a zoom in here. It's a it's a fantastic. It's a it's a Sony cassette 23:24.920 --> 23:29.960 And he yeah, he literally scanned the cassette and it's great because you can even see I should put this up somewhere 23:29.960 --> 23:34.840 You can even see on this picture that it puts scotch tape over those two plastic things 23:35.160 --> 23:39.400 The edge of the cassette you know if you want to record protect it you'd have to click that out 23:39.720 --> 23:43.480 And that was so typical. You know, it always just put tape on it so that we could re-record anyway 23:44.040 --> 23:47.320 And it says on this cassette it says basic programs 23:48.360 --> 23:51.000 in Vic 20 basic 23:52.120 --> 23:56.920 Now the geeks out there will remember this if you're old enough now have you ever heard a modem 23:56.920 --> 24:00.920 What a what a modem sounds like when when it's trying to connect I mean these days 24:01.480 --> 24:05.640 It's it's almost like how many people still know what a record scratch sounds like yeah 24:06.200 --> 24:08.680 My daughter has never heard an actual record scratch 24:09.080 --> 24:14.120 I know how she ever heard a modem connect because uh, you know, it's all uh Wi-Fi and broadband 24:14.120 --> 24:16.840 There's no more audible dialing through a phone line 24:17.400 --> 24:20.600 But back in the day the way you know before uh well 24:21.080 --> 24:25.720 When we couldn't afford floppy disks those really with these first consumer grade computers 24:25.720 --> 24:29.480 So before the Commodore 64 you had the Commodore Vic 20 24:29.960 --> 24:31.960 Victor India Charlie 20 and 24:32.440 --> 24:36.840 It was basically a keyboard it had a little TV RF output you could the 24:37.320 --> 24:43.800 Shove in big ROM modules and you could connect the cassette recorder to it so you could write your programs to the cassette tape 24:44.360 --> 24:48.840 Which would basically save the program this was basic so it was you know it was like lines of well 24:48.840 --> 24:53.880 It was lines of code only very very rudimentary stuff and you could also read in 24:54.520 --> 24:56.520 That information 24:56.520 --> 25:02.280 From a cassette and you could then use the program you could load the program and you could send these to friends and you could share them 25:02.280 --> 25:11.800 In fact the BBC at one point had the BBC a corn computer very similar concept and they would actually broadcast these programs over the air 25:12.360 --> 25:15.480 So you then record that signal just a regular FM station 25:15.480 --> 25:20.920 You would you would record the single onto your cassette tape and then you'd put it into your deck of your computer 25:20.920 --> 25:23.480 And you could load up the program and it was it was the 25:23.560 --> 25:30.200 Met with the most it would think about how cool that would be if we could still do that today. It was massive massive bandwidth 25:31.240 --> 25:33.240 Massive multiple 25:33.240 --> 25:34.760 You know like 25:34.760 --> 25:39.560 You know it's like one stream and everyone caught it at the same time. It's a mine trip when you think about it 25:41.320 --> 25:43.320 And so what Tom did 25:43.640 --> 25:49.720 Is he of course he digitized the program so if you have a a Vic 20 laying around 25:50.360 --> 25:56.440 And because I don't have mine anymore. I had no idea where that's gone. I wish I still had it because it would certainly be in my my collection 25:58.280 --> 26:01.160 Then please load this program up and tell me what it does 26:01.800 --> 26:03.800 Here it is 26:12.200 --> 26:15.240 Yeah, my yeah my ears hurt too. I have to admit that did kind of suck 26:15.880 --> 26:19.160 Hey, I want you to give me a call.
