Your very special mp3 of the week.

Andy Prieboy "Psycho Ex"
The musician describes this kind of music as "Gilbert and Hooligan." Which is very fitting. Light opera, Bohemian Rhapsody-esque, about your drunken ex trying to kill you.

Quality.

Listen to past shows as mp3s

I've uploaded a couple of my radio shows that I'd saved as mp3s. The sound quality is quite low to try and keep the file size down, but they're still 55 meg files. I also only have a few of my past ones saved, but now that I have a helluva lot of web space, I'll make sure to save each show I do, and I'll post them each week.

Here's the ones that are online right now:If you like them, let me know!

My show is now on Thursdays, from 2-4 p.m. Alaska time. For the time in other timezones, see the link in the right hand column.

Very special mp3 of the day.

Lemon Demon's "The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny" details a battle between everyone who has ever been cool, ever. Plus Aaron Carter.

A very special song, with a very special music video. It shall be on my next radio show (which will be in two weeks).
This is the ultimate showdown, of ultimate destiny!
Good guys, bad guys and explosions as far as the eye can see,
And only one will survive, I wonder who it will be?
This is the ultimate showdown, of ultimate destiny!
