Shownotes by Matt Blender.

Madge Weinstein died today… and so did Mr. Zeeche?

Talking about tech.

I use the Final Plug by Wave-Arts plug-in to do this podcast.

Dave Calderbank: having technical problems. He’s actually a good-looking heterosexual.

Listen to Eat This Hot Show to hear about the “personality sea” of the podosphere. This makes more sense when you listen to Eat This Hot Show.

People always like the stuff on my show that I don’t like myself. People listen to Yeast mostly for personality.

I’ve been trying to transition to laptop.

Musique Cardiaque.

I want to ask Taylor E. Ross to modify the theme song but I won’t.

Terry , the pro-choice lobbyist, is having Alfre Woodard as a guest speaker at a conference.

Voicemail from Richard in San Diego. He likes the opera playing. Richard: please send me an email explaining your Podshow problem to me and then I can send it to Ceven.

Anyone, gay or straight, is invited to the Midwest Queercaster Bowling Party.

A song Podcast Mark from Boynovice sound system made about Bush.

For anyone that miss Madge: I have an old Madge segment she made for Karmabanque.

Sirius’s fucking great Metropolitan Opera Channel. My opera queen friend Larry is getting Sirius just to have this channel.

Blowing dust off some old records for you to listen to.

It’s weird for me to be without Madge too.

Other Peoples’ Mirrors on Insane Films.

Americunt is inactive. Go to bluestein.com to read my blogging.

Rap song.

Soundscape.

It is obvious that Richie has something up his sleeve because he is intentionally being SUPER BORING. Maybe he is in a self-destructive shame spiral and basically needs to be told to get fucked and that his real personality is great but is not suited as well as Madge is to the internets. HATE HATE HATE!

Jesus’s brother Frankie

Superman would occasionally tire of saving cunts falling from buildings, he’d disapear for months here and there, but sure enough when the world really needed him he’d return to save other cunts falling from buildings, so maybe when we really need Madge she’ll be there too ?

The strange gasping noises as Richard played Madge’s Karmabanque feedback was chilling. I liked the music afterwards, no change there.

I don’t really care about tech talk unless it’s about how technology can help ordinary people enable and enhance their lives, not talking about technology for the sake of it. So, the tech on this show was fine in that regard, even if it was of little interest to me.

I’m going to stop tip toeing around this and just braindump. My thinking is in constant flux about this and I can’t believe how much I am thinking about this when I have 15billion other things I should be doing.

I don’t want Madge to die. I believe that Madge has the power to get noticed, speak her mind and simply entertain in a way that most podcasters could not. I think that has made a lot of people jealous. I would not be here if it was not for Madge. That said, a lot of the emotional attachment is obviously centred around Richard whose honesty and passion is the real reason this show is what it is. I don’t know Richard very well but would consider him to be a friend.

I think I know where all this is coming from (April 21), it has been alluded to intermittently on this show for months and if I am right then that is one complicated, twisted mess to deal with. I know because I have spent the last few months revisiting that, analysing it, working out why it affected me so personally and acutely, who was right and wrong and what the fuck it had to do with me in the first place.

I have been meaning to do something about it, but can never get myself together enough to even make sense talking about it to anyone. In fact, every time I voice an opinion on it, I almost immediately reconsider and sometimes regret what I said. I just know it made me feel sick to the pit of my stomach.

I think there was a lot of smokescreening and projection used at the time but also some truths spoken. Nothing is clear cut. My conclusion was that the only way to counter the criticism is to become whiter than white. That is actually impossible, but is something one can strive for, if not wholly achieve. But does that also mean defeat? Nothing is black and white.

It would be a real shame if Madge is not coming back, I will miss her terribly. She has always been a very real entity to me, enlivened subjects with crackling dialogue, razor sharp wit and produced some quite sublime comedy that I can’t explain. I have made friends through this show and that hasn’t happened with other podcasts.

I’ll leave it up to Richard to bring us the content in the manner he feels is best and if Madge can possibly be nursed back to health at some point in the future I will be glad to see her, although since that could be a long way off, who knows how I’ll feel then. I’m not going anywhere.

  Me too. Especially those months ago when the chat box was up, sitting there, watching for people to talk to. I did make friends and am still making friends through Yeast Radio. I have not been able to do so through any other podcast and if I did make friends through another podcast it was a short lived friendship. I see Yeast Radio as a community and am very, very much thankful for it.
  
  Yeast Radio was one of the first podcasts I start listening to last year, over a year ago actually, every morning I’d get up and listen to my Yeast just like so many other people do. This is TRULY the only show that I have ever subscribed to and never un-subscribed from….and that won’t change.

  My thoughts exactly. I’ll miss Madge (although I would appreciate the occasional appearance); but I look forward to hearing directly from Richard. In fact, we’ve had the opportunity through Insane Films & YR 2, but on a limited basis. True, he’s not (acting like) Madge, but I am excited (although initially surprised and saddened) by the changes.
  
  As I wrote on ETHS: good luck!

I have to say that I am unhealthily attached to Madge, and I very much will miss her. She pushed boundaries. She redefined what was uncomfortable (in a good way). She became apart of me — Madge was a mask, but she was a powerful mask. She was a resource for me, over the last 2 years, to trust, to know that every fucked up thing in this world could be addressed, and in such a way that was not only appropriate but motivational. Madge provoked me on a regular basis to contact my Senator. Madge took on Adam Curry and Dave Winer. Madge became the most amazing voice Podshow could have ever hoped to recruit. Madge created qpodder, finally a place for us, the unspeakable minority. Madge brought us Americunt. Madge voiced herself on Sirus. She brought the pluralization of words and the use of ‘the’ to modify nouns into my everyday vocabulary — not to mention the occasional “BWAH HUH” my friends and I share amongst eachother. Madge bore her soul in the most trying times imaginable…

But through it all it was a fictional character, as we are so forcibly being made aware of this past week. I can’t pretend to understand where the death of Madge is coming from, and while I’ve heard the explanations on Eat This Hot Show, I can’t help but feel like the excuses are manufactured. I by no means will stop listening to this show, it was one of the first podcasts I’ve ever subscribed to, back in 2004. But I can’t help feeling a bit betrayed, albeit by a fictional character made up by the very person who is still at the helm of the show. I wish you luck Richard, I only hope that I can continue to turn to this podcast for the politics, humour and philosophy I have come to rely on for hope in this time of incendiary malfeasance and destruction of basic rights.

Madge was so many things, but overall she was my pillar. She helped me believe that so much could still be done. I hope beyond hope that she survives this, whatever this is. But if not, I can only hope that the message of Yeast Radio doesn’t die with her…

  You took the words out of my mouth. Even if Richard decides to never return to the Madge persona (which is what it looks like is happening), I hope the death of the character is a least treated with respect. It’s almost a slap in the face after listening for almost two years when Richard sighs and replies “good” whenever Grizelda reads a Madge update and says “she’s probably not going to make it” as if she was such a burden to play and he’s happy it’s finally over. As fruity as it sounds, she was incrediably meaningful to many people all over the world and I just hope we get a couple of goodbye episodes or a clip show or something rather “madge is over, new format – deal with it”.

Before Madge came along Cunt was an offensive word, now I am at ease using it around friends and family, it has become mainstream in my home and I’ll often call my grandma a cunt while watching her do the housework in our 2 star motel. I really hope MW is genuinely sick and not being killed off, I’ve always had this feeling that the evil Richard Bluestein didn’t like her and his comments regarding her over the last three shows confirm my beliefs, well I hope she recovers to fire his ass from the yeastradio HQ, he’ll never oust that fat fucking bloated cunt from this show , if she dies we’ll hijack the studio and broadcast repeats, we’ll even find someone out there that sounds like Madge to take over like they did with Kermit the Frog when Jim Henson died, we the TRUE gentile fans will write the shows, Madge Weinstein will never die, ya hear me NEVER DIE, Move over HUbbard, time for The Church Of Cuntology, Madge is our god our Jesus, Richard B can nail her to a cross, Grizelda can try and poisen her but she will never die, ya hear me she will never die. ya hear me ?
I’ve gotta go now I’ve done a little bit of shit in my pants, but I’ll be back ya hear me I’LL BE BACK….ya cunts.

  ain’t you going abit far?
  
  sometimes it is good to let go of a caracter totally, kind of what i did with my old persona. Now and then one just has to make adjustments, and for me it was that my caracter wasn’t needid anymore because my life has normalized its self.
  Andsometimes that is needid, and sorry but madge is not hermit the fuckin’ frog when she dies like every normal person, then she is gone exept from memories untill she is inexistant in everyones memories she will live on inside Richard as a tiny piece eaven if she is dead, ocasionaly one falls back into the caracter, or so at least my life has shown me.

I think this show is still as good as ever. Though just because Madge is leaving podcasting (maybe) does she really have to die? Can’t she just retire? Go off to somewhere in europe with a new lover. That’d be nice. I don’t think you have to kill a character to be done with them. Also should at any point in the future you wish her to return for the odd thing, she doesn’t have to return from the grave (which is impossible and silly in my opinion lol). Maybe she could take a 6 month break in a health farm and take anger management classes. Anyway, thought I’d say my crap and be off. TTFN

I don’t care anymore Richard or Madge they both have the same taste in music. More Biggie Smalls please! Hip Hop has the rough edge that they both have in their personalities.

I admit, I can’t wait for Richard to go off on a rant as truely himself. (When your good and ready!)

I used to enjoy the tech discussions with Madge – I’d nearly always listen and they’d be one or two inspired or funny things each time, but they’d be a lot I didn’t enjoy.

Anyway, re iTunes 7 – one weird thing I noticed that is good is that it seems to have fixed an issue introduced by the first iTunes version by Apple that included their own podcast directory, ie my ‘Latest Podcasts’ smart playlist – which I think was the original podcasting method introduce by Adam Curry now works again!

This is still is a more useful way to view unlistened to podcasts on the ipod screen – or a at least an ipod mini.

Looking forwad to future shows in whatever incarnation. Tim

Richard,
I love ya and will listen every day with or without Madge. I will miss Madge, but your show is so good, that I can’t stop listening! I will remain a loyal listenturd. And I wish I could meet up with you guys in Chicago for the QPodder fest, but I live in DC and will not be able to dash over to Chicago for the festivities.

Keep on and be real. I love ya!
