After a long, long gestation period, I am launching my reading podcast. The first recording is "Nyarlathotep," by Howard Phillips Lovecraft. It's world premiere is on Yog Radio, episode 28, which has just gone live. Yog Radio is a Lovecraftiana podcast. Constructive criticism is encouraged; your enjoyment is hoped for.
Yog Radio podcast home - You can use the feed in your podcatcher utility to download, or use the web player halfway down the page. My reading begins 42min30sec into the show.
I have always been a fan of the Junkyard Wars/Robot Wars/Mythbusters type of television. I never tire of watching really rugged, practical people making 1337 devices from scratch. I admit, though, there is an element to my enjoyment that I find... unusual.
Am I the only man who finds an arc welder in the hands of a slender woman a thrill? Watching a petite female oversee the placing of a concrete safety wall gives me a charge.
Building and destroying is a turn-on. I admit it.
As I watch Smash Lab with its extremely high-speed/slow-motion TEN SECOND shots (that's long) of a car smashing into an aerated concrete wall, I close my eyes.
