New Microphone
I always wanted to improve the sound and now I can. Just got a new microphone and mounting bracket so the sound is better.

I’ve always thought the sound quality could be better, so I have ordered a shotgun condenser microphone and a mounting bracket. So for future episodes I hope that the sound is better.

I’m taking the Radical Geek on hiatus for the podcast. I hope to get some addition equipment like a a shotgun mic, a mounting bracket and a new laptop. My old laptop is broken and needs to get replaced. Also it’s getting hard to find people to interview on my show but hopefully I can get working on it. If you have any suggestions send them to radicalgeek at gmaildotcom. In other news is that I had an idea of nerdy music show called the Mad Hatter’s Party. It will be having nerdcore hip hop, comedy music, chip tunes, and video game music. Only problem with this is money, so it will most likely not happen.

This is part 2 of 2 of the series on Comedy Music. It this episode I interview Chris Mezzolesta of Power Salad(www.powersalad.com). Power Salad is a comedy music group offering obscurely skewed and head-scratchingly funny views of life, wrapped up in different musical styles like wieners in blankets. Then we talk to Jared Ringold of Possible Oscar(www.possibleoscar.com). Possible Oscar is a Minneapolis, MN based comedy music act that specializes in original and parody songs. Their topics range from video games to nerd love, with stops at comic books and notable Hollywood movie sound effects. Many of the artist in part 1 and 2 can be found at The Funny Music Project(www.thefump.com).

This episode I bring you part 1 of a 2 part series on Comedy Music, also know as Dementia in some circles. Comedy music covers many styles of music from Jazz to Hip Hop and everything in between. The artists I have for part 1 are Dino-Mike (www.dino-mike.com), singer, a lyricist, but most importantly a musician. Next is The Gothsicles(www.thegothsicles.com), Chicago’s ultrasweaty industrial dance dorkstorm. Lastly is Devo Spice(www.devospice.com) a nerdcore and comedy rapper from New Jersey who has been called “the red-headed stepson of Weird Al Yankovic and Eminem.” Many of the artist in part 1 and 2 can be found at The Funny Music Project(www.thefump.com).

I just bought a new camcorder and tripod for the podcast. Now I can get a stable video and can attach a microphone to it to get the sound
better.

Now I have a press pass so that I can be identified as a member of the press.

Long time ago I made a board game called Crash ‘n’ Burn. It was based off Demolition Derby. I found the rules and the game pieces that I thought I lost on my PC. I’m going to post them here. You can print it out and play test the game.

Looking forward to the new year and where I want to take my video podcast. Last post I talked about getting a new camera. I thought of some other things that I would love to change. For one having my own domain maybe useful. I know someone is squatting on radicalgeek.com. Would rather have radicalgeek.net. Also thinking of having ads on my video. That would take a business address. So I was thinking of a P.O, Box. The idea with the kickstarter page may not be a bad idea to raise funds for a video camera and tripod. Since I’m going to go to events I think that press credentials may also be a good thing to have. I hope that 2012 will be better year for the Radical Geek.
