idioPod 92: Tipped Off

| No Comments

Let's go tipping... but only in the USA...

I talk about tipping in the USA vs Australia and also some news about idioPod.

Remember, I will not be updating from 6 - 19 September 2009 due to a potentially nasty case of jet lag.

What the Heck's Going on with IdioPod?

| No Comments

You might be sitting there asking yourself where the new idioPod episodes are. You might not care, but whether you care or not, I'll fill you in on a few things that are going on:

  • idioPod 92: Tipped Off has been delayed until Friday.
  • idioPod 93: We Have Lift Off will be the last episode for 3 weeks.
  • idioPod 94 will be scheduled when I get back.

Basically, once again, I bit off more than I can chew. I need to focus on seeing people, going places, packing and doing things before I go, so that's what I'll do! What I can promise you is two before I head off.

Now remember, there will not be any new podcast episode updates for two weeks beginning 6 September 2009.

And it's also worth noting that if you want to check what's going on as far as new episodes are concerned, you can look at the calendar.

That's it from me.

idioPod 91: Across the World in 20 Days

| 3 Comments

Across the world in 20 days, it's coming soon...

In this podcast I chat with you about going to the USA and emphasizing the fears that I have about going back, a possible return to Australia because I love this country, weird dreams, a personal spirtual journey is in my head, my need for dynamic living, my purpose of my podcasts and no summer season for me this year (so tired of winter). Visit idiopod.com when you can!

Where Has Ben Been?

| No Comments

So alright, it's been a while hasn't it? Almost a week, in fact. You might be asking yourself where the new episodes of idioPod are and why they're late? Or maybe you just don't care at all. Whatever your cares are, I'll tell you what's up.

So alright, so this is what's up:

Content is cheap right now. I'm not really sure what to talk about lately and not sure if I can sit down and talk about nothing for 30 minutes. That's why I have moved idioPod 91 to Wednesday. Hell, it might be moved to Friday.

Check the calendar. Do you want to know when the next episode of idioPod is planned? Then head on over to the calendar, graciously brought to you by Google Calendars.

This is the link to know:

The link is magical. It will tell you at least when the next few episodes are scheduled but keep in mind that sometimes I need to move the dates around. So make sure you keep checking it out regularly.

That's all I've got for you at the moment. Have a fun week!

idioPod 90: Disconnect

| No Comments

Chris is not on the line... he won't be calling you.

In this short podcast, I talk about the downsides of online-only phone numbers, my uneventful (yet planned) weekend, my new Nintendo DSi and please let me know if you have questions, concerns, comments, complaints or personal problems. I end the podcast with a 7 minute song since this episode would be way too short without it.

From 16:35 until 23:35 is a song by Locust Toybox called "Midmorning Tufler" from the album Inkbrush. You can download the full album for free here.

idioPod 89: Hard-coded Acquisition

| No Comments

Is sexual orientation something hard-coded in our brains or is it acquired?

In this podcast episode, I go over two articles I found regarding the American Psychological Association declaring that mental health professionals should not tell gay clients they can become straight through therapy or other treatments (link) and also I talk about Brazil's TV ads telling people that peeing in the shower is a great way to conserve water (link). Visit idioPod.com if you haven't already!

And yes, the title is an oxymoron.

Taking an Inner-Mission

| No Comments

It's very late Thursday night or very early Friday morning... however you want to see it. I'm sitting up listening to the wind blowing on the windows. The wind is crazy tonight! I'm expecting to hear something shatter any moment now.

I don't have a lot to say but didn't want there to be too many podcasts being posted one after another. :)

I'll be back tomorrow.

idioPod 88: Fight or Flight

| 2 Comments

Fight or Flight, you have a choice...

I bring you podcasting from the car in the airport (for the first bit). I talk about my hair (or the lack thereof), the not-so-lovely nightlife here in Melbourne, idioPod.com is new, podcasting changes and my shopping spree at the USA Foods store.
