Direct Download Link | |

Direct download link

This Six Song Donut Spectacular comes to you for the first time on a set, regular basis. On the 15th of every month, I’ll bring you six songs in a single epsiode, doing my best to cut down on the chit-chat and talk strictly music. I’ll tell you what I know about the artists and give you more resources to find out about them.

This episode is an examination of the Asian Man Records library of bands, selecting six that were passed on to me by The Reverend Don Deeley and the Podsafe Music Network.

RZ#84 – Winging It; BC Ferries Update; McMynn Kidnapping; Hockey Talk; Learning Hockey

Direct Download Link | |

Direct download link

Sorta just started recording this one with only a few notes prepared. I find that allows you to just ramble on when you’re not paying attention. We discuss some current events in the Vancouver area, talk about the Canucks in the Hockey Talk portion, and discover what the rule of “icing” is about in Learning Hockey w/ Uncle John. Towards the end, I also detail my plan about an ongoing idea/feature that I will create for the podcast from now on.

Minidisc and microphone packed along for the trip, Rebecca and I take some time to review our trip to the Okanagan, things we did during our stay, and the route we drove to get there. There’s quite a bit you can do in the Okanagan, but we went for the wine tours. Since it’s been a while that Rebecca has been on the podcast, we also took some time for hockey talk. We also chat about some of the supernatural legends in B.C and some of the other areas in the interior.

Life is unscripted, and so is this. We’ll chat a little about me loaning my talents out for free and how that is keeping me busy while I wait for paperwork to go through with the government. Rebecca and I are off on a trip into the interior tomorrow, the Okanagan being our destination. Wrap up this episode with hockey talk about the Canucks and the rough road to the playoffs.

Upgrading to PodPress 4.4

If you are wondering where some of the previous episodes have gone to, then sit tight. I am in the process of getting everything back to normal after upgrading the PodPress plugin to the site. I hope to get all the older episodes added back in over the next few days.

My apologies, and please check back soon.

Thanks!

Edit: (7:52AM PT, April 5, 2006)  I made an error in the upgrade process with the RSS through PodPress, causing my feed to not work or be seen.  This situation should be resolved.  If you are still having problems, please let me know.

RZ Video Podcast #6 – Riding the SkyTrain

Direct Download Link | |

Direct download link

This video podcast is a collection of clips that I have taken over a period of various rides on the SkyTrain. The motion might be a little too much for the encoding to handle, and my camera does not take the highest resolution of movies. More so, I can’t afford a compact flash card with greater capacity to shoot a lot of high resolution movies. I might experiment with that in the future, but doing so fills up the two, 128Mb cards that I currently own very quickly.

I hope you enjoy seeing what it’s like riding on the SkyTrain. I know that I enjoy every ride I get to take.

A ferry sank yesterday off the coast of British Columbia. I take a moment to provide some insight to the incident. In the second portion of today’s episode, you get to go on a ride with me in the car as I drive in a car by myself for only the second time that I’ve been living in Vancouver. All my apologies for the quality, but I promise to not make the same mistake next time.
