BONUS - Chipped Ham

Okay, so before the podcasting, I did the college radio thing. I had a radio show for 3 1/2 years called Good Guys Radio. The format of the show was a lot different than the format of the podcast, because we used to talk a lot more than we played music, sometimes for hours on end. On this particular night, the subject somehow veered into Howard Stern territory (it was all my fault) and we almost all got kicked off the air because of it.

Listen at your own risk. It's not a politically correct episode by any means. My only excuse was that I was I was 19 when recording this episode, I am now 23. If you have a problem with the content of the episode, turn it off and peep one of the many other quality episodes we have produced. Otherwise, enjoy!

Allen Iverson (Jewelz) - 40 Barz

Nice Rec Time Travellin' Set

So… we recorded this episode over two weeks ago, but I am just now (finally) getting around to posting it. Making a website is hard work you know, you want to make the site looks just right… and even though I’m not entirely happy with the design now (it’s just a template, afterall), I am satisfied.

Anyways, DJ Nice Rec and I teamed up for our inaugural episode where I just played some jams and recollected on the events that transpired at this years Scribble Jam.

Posted September 24th, 2006
