Feliz Cinco de Mayo! I took my minidisc with me while I ventured around the city in the pursuit of my immigration paperwork. The adventure ended up taking more time than I expected, so you come along with me while I walk into the heart of downtown Vancouver to meet up with Rebecca after work. I also got some music into this mobile, a rare occurance in such previous episodes.

I often carry around recording gear, so this is my first attempt at including smaller recordings that I make into the podcast. I tell you a little about the Eagle Cam and finish out the episode with the two soundseeing pieces. Williams Park in Langley, B.C. is a protect spawning ground for salmon and trout. You’ll also get to hang out with me and Rebecca at the 9 O’clock Gun in Stanley Park.

RZ#88 – CouchCast; Mates of State Show; Sun Run; Canada Line Construction; Hockey Talk

Direct Download Link | |

Direct download link

Rebecca joins me for another CouchCast. There is so much to cover that I truly needed her help on this one. We briefly review the Mates of State show we went to last Friday, discuss our experiences with the Vancouver Sun Run, talk about construction details and headaches about the Canada Line, and finish up with some Hockey Talk that, oddly enough, includes huge news about the Canucks. This is a long one, but we also tossed in some music to break things up a little.

RZ#87 – CouchCast w/ Rebecca the Sick Girl

Direct Download Link | |

Direct download link

Recorded via minidisc, I sat down with Rebecca on our couch last night to chat a lot about lots of random topics. Most of them relate back to Vancouver, but we cover some other things as well. We talked about a lot, hockey being the main topic I wanted to have her on the podcast for. I hope I have all the links to cover the information that we shared, but that’s also what Google is for, eh?

We’re off to the Mates of State show tonight in Vancouver, so I play two cuts by them as well.

RZ#86 – Tornados In Iowa City

Direct Download Link | |

Direct download link

The longest episode of RadioZoom yet, I take a look at the tornados that tore up the downtown area of Iowa City. I used to live and work in this city. Paul Flahive is a former co-worker of mine who sent me audio from some of the recordings he captured for use in the weekend program. I run some of those pieces as well as some raw audio that he sent along as well.

Thanks also goes out to David Henderson, an intern at WSUI who collaborated with Paul in the collection of this audio.

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.
