Pit Bulls and Plugins – Yeast Radio -06.14.05


Podshow Yeastradio Icon
Madge discusses technology, haters, and pit bulls.

UPDATE: I took this show off-line because I embarassed myslef by saying something really ignorant. I’ll explain why turdmorrow.

UPDATE 2: While I’m still embarassed, I cannot in good conscience take down the show. I’ve always had a principle of not deleting anything except for SPAM, because I am strongly opposed to revisionism. So I am leaving it up.

Hi Madge,

Why do I get the impression that while your doing a podcast about more freedom with podshow.COM your show sounds so edited? Where are the compulsive Hèhèh’s that are só Madge?! Oh well, it might be the noise gate/BigBottom/compression/AndI’mFat/expander you just talked about while I was typing this…

Overigens is het vakantietijd, dus als je er aan toe bent, neem dan lekker vrij!

‘still love you.

Mary, turday’s show was not edited AT ALL. I only added PW’s plug and the themes at the very beginning and end. There was one glitch in the middle but that was a goof. I t was not edited. I did use the noise gate but I think I set it wrong. It creats really obvious glitches in the background- better to leave the noise but I didn’t have time to re-do it.

Ik wil naar het Nederlands gaan waneer ik heb nied nodig mijn baan hier bij de kut band.
Caleb threatened to kill me because of the heh’s.

Which is your podcast, Mary? I want to hear how it’s supposed to be done. 😉

Yeah. the podshow thing was a bit over the top- still getting used to the whole thing.

Glad to hear the processing made it sound like you made sacrifices to podshow.
And Caleb can stick it in his ear.

Madge, I found your podcast through vividblurry’s site. I’ve been walking around San Francisco, listening to your show, and touching my crotch…ever since.

Good thing nobody notices me touching myself and laughing for seemingly no reason on street corners. This *is* San Francisco, you know. 🙂

The new site is just so PLUMP! Don’t let all the extra bandwidth go to your head, Madge. Your shorter shows have been very solid, very enjoyable.

Air Kiss Back, Mare.

WP is lovely, but the down side is that it’s slower because of the dynamic rendering. I still prefer it, though, because the themes are so easy to manage.

Gosh Madge, I thought I’d take a break from your RSS and come over to see what you’ve done to the place. It looks great–the orange-red goes with your glasses and eyebrow color!

These threaded comments are neat and sleek as hell, too! Are they hard to implement?

Have a good one and take care Toots!

One thing may help the noise gate from sounding so abrupt. If you
take a 20 second sample recording of your kitchen or wherever you are, maybe
you could have that as the “dead air” sound that the gate goes to
when it kicks in. The gate may sound more subtle that way.
I have no clue if this is possible with your equipment. Can the
noise gate be told to switch to a different sound source
which is just looping the “dead air” .aiff constantly?
Maybe this doesn’t make sense.

Uhm, I think saying “schwartzer” is a symptom of horror and annoyance. As long as you make that clear, and note that racism is something that you struggle against, I think it is okay. I’m a thoughtful americunt, and I know I am racist, but it is something I dislike about myself, and I counter it (almost) every time I find it in myself. I found myself talking about drunk Indians in my last ‘cast, for instance. Yech.
About pitbulls– there are two reasons to own a pitbull. One is if you are a sadistic bastard who fights dogs. The other is if you are compensating for having a micropenis. Big dog = little dick. Period. c de f

Well,um, by “penis” I mean “character, intelligence and personality”, because as a hetero white man, that’s apparently where most of those are located. I think you are better qualified to answer clit questions, Phrankly.

I seCUNT (or perhaps Turd) the digital “props” for keeping the show up…
Anyway, I wanted to let jew know that I LOVED your press release. Upon receiving it, I promptly picked up the phone and read it to a bunch of my friends.
Regarding douche-bags acting differently towards you and such… No worries in the PuffyBlubberCunt department–My clitoris is huge and will stay swollen in the hopes that one day the salt-bloated lips of Madge will grace them with their presence (and sucking, and a little bit of biting).
Although… I do think the podshow thing at the beginning is a bit… well… NOT SO MUCH… I assume there is a good reason for it–Are you able to talk about that? Please share with us, your gentle (and sometimes gentile) listeners.

Thanks, BBlubberwhore. I can talk about it. Are you referring to the Bumper? Isn’t it enough that P.W. went out on a limb by telling the G.A. that his ass stinks?

What do you want to know?

Yes, I was referring to the bumper. Is this something that you have to insert before every show now?

Did you hear that the results from Schiavo’s autopsy are going to be released today? Oh happy day! I hope that we learned the truth–that she was not persistently vegative, but rather that she was a savior! SAVE TERRI!!!!

Right Wanda. Even lesbians make mistakes. Do drag queens make mistakes too?

P.S. Did you want me to try cuntverting that video for you? If so email it to bloatedlesbian.

Hey lovely Madge! this is Jo the lovely lesbian from DC! love your showwwww! hope you get paid soon! Dammit you deserve it!

I LOVE YOU MADGE!

this show was awesome madge, the best in awhile. every minute golden. i listened to it twice. it sounded great too, i’m sick of podcasts with unruly levels and popping p’s. more of the same please!!!!! thanks ~~~~ luv jon.

gotta limit that limiter… sheesh.

i don’t know about how others feel, but the effects really overwhelmed this one.

I like when you can hear “ambient” room sounds like the fridge and stuff. it’s not like you’re in some recording studio, trying for perfect silence. isn’t that the whole point of roaming around your flat, cleaning, shitting and eating — to give “atmosphere”?

anyway, since you’re taking a break on the emails, i thought i’d recommend to all the folks here to listen to the “bad cop no donut” podcast… especially if you really want to learn what is going on with the pigs in your town.

Madge,

(see post above this one) Not the limiter…. It’s a noise gate that cuts off the backgound noise. You can adjust the amount that the background sounds are dropped when the gate is engaged. The device might also be called an “expander” depending on your software. Either way, there will be a “db” setting for the amount of “cut” that will be given. Don’t drop it all the way. Maybe 30 db or so, should sound better, if you must.

But, I like audio programs without “gates” generally. I can hear them working too much.

Keep using your lesbian powers to push the limits of technology!

Hi Michael…

Madge actually turned me on to your show, as she said it was one of the few experimental shows out there (including ours?)

Duh…! I should have known to call it a noise gate, but alas I am neither a lesbian nor technical (nor very smart).

I also prefer sound without the artificial “gate” sound… I like to hear the rumblings of life!

And I also like your Difficults Listening (yes, the plural was intentional, Madge).

Ms. Oster, on the other hand, might be getting a little perturbed by it? 😉

Ohh the mic was set to not record anything when the sound get’s very low which is really fucking hard to listen to. I will anyway, though! I love you maaaage! *throws herself out of window like scence from damien*
