Join Geoff and Whisp as they grapple with plummeting radio ratings (from #1 to #10 and then #20!). They blame a disastrous “98.6 The Squirt" ad buy and explore the questionable comfort of Chatbot therapy. This episode takes a wild turn with Marvel "What If...?" scenarios, the dangers of Val Verde's Pac-Man Fever-a-Thon, and a truly unforgettable interview with Zimothy Larson (Mike Drucker), the eccentric owner of "Bookshelf Books."

In this episode, Sam and Dean team up with Charlie to hunt down a gin that feeds on fear. Charlie's past catches up with her as she confronts her own fears and guilt. The episode explores themes of family, loss, and facing one's fears. It also delves into the history of the pantsuit and its significance in women's fashion.

The Pemmy & James Kinda-Sorta-Hopefully Funny Cartoon Podcast

Video game mania erupted in the early 1980s with the arrival of Namco's revolutionary maze-chase game, so leave it to Hanna-Barbera to turn the property into a dollar store diet cola version of both the Smurfs and the Flintstones. That's just the kind of rut HB was in during the 1980s, sadly, but it's not a complete loss thanks to the efforts of a stellar voice cast. Friend of the podcast and all-around Pac-Man expert Cary Woodham joins Pemmy and James to find the cure for Pac-Man Fever.

Here's a question for you. Will the person who you think is your fan, actually like your music. Are they willing to put the time and effort into becoming a fan of your career? How devoted and passionate of a fan are they? How do you go about getting them engaged in your career? How do you go about creating new fans, who will also become devoted followers. Just as you nurture prospects in the real world, you also have to nurture those prospects in the online world. You're in the fan building business. You have to get them from fan, to occasional fan, to good fan, to super fan. Mike Stewart, who is the President and Found of Stewart Internet Solutions, chats with us regarding what it takes to reach those people, and turn them from suspects, into Super Fans. I takes marketing. Marketing is not evil. Marketing is necessary. You need to use such devices as Kindle, Amazon, and YouTube in the proper way, and learn how to leverage these platforms to your benefit. Part of this is understanding that platforms such as YouTube are a traffic generation process. It's not an income producing process. It markets whatever you're selling. Mike is president and founder of Stewart Internet Solutions Inc., a internet consulting agency and services company located in the Nashville, TN, USA. Mike has composed countless radio jingles, television scores, and produced or performed on music heard all over the world. He has worked with world famous musicians such as Tommy Roe, Joe South, William Bell (Georgia Hall of Fame Recipient and 2017 Grammy Winner), Buckner Garcia, Atlanta Rhythm Section, Billy Joe Royal, Alicia Bridges, Isaac Hayes, Eddie Floyd, Bertie Higgins, Doug Johnson, and Bill Anderson.  He has gold record for playing keys on 80's hit, Pac Man Fever as a band member of Buckner and Garcia and recorded the theme to Disney's Oscar nominated movie, “Wreck It Ralph” in 2012 The list goes on and on of national performers who's who. He owned and operated a recording studio for over twenty years working in all facets of digital audio and video. In 1996, Mike became passionate about the future of the Internet and how small businesses could benefit from the web if they just understood how to make it work for their company. He saw how the broadcast of audio and video information on a website was no different than the television/radio industry he had been a part of all his life. Since that time, he has become very successful consulting with small business owners on how to set up their worldwide TV stations and broadcast their unique marketing message to the world. Stewart Internet Solutions focused on Internet technologies that allowed audio and video to be streamed over the Internet. We developed distance training web sites, e-commerce projects, and audio/video intensive web projects utilizing HTML 5 responsive web programming. He didn't stop there, but was constantly striving to be on the cutting edge of technology always searching for better more efficient ways of achieving his goals. After listening to a set of audiotapes in 2000, he attended his first Internet Marketing Seminar. Initially Mike was a student himself. Soon he was hired to record seminars, events and webinars. Through techniques he learned from the seminar speakers and promoters he was able to create his own software products that made the process easier. While he had spoken to many groups, associations, and business organizations throughout the years, his first Internet Marketing Seminar speaking engagement was in 2003. Since then he has attended and spoken at many events worldwide. Mike teaches attendees the benefits of owning the right equipment and utilizing it to record themselves to make quality multi-media audio and video information products that can be marketed for high profits. He is always on the look out for new innovative ideas, products, hardware and software to benefit his clients. His hands-on customer service approach outshines most and he creates in-depth audio and video tutorials to enhance the products he sells. These tutorials are now available in over 20 subscription websites linked from this site. More training sites are being created and update on an ongoing basis. Mike and his wife,  Susan who works and travels with him on his speaking engagements, now enjoying working with the music industry professionals in Nashville and back to his passion of song writing and music production.

Filmmakers Lisanne Pajot and James Swirsky discovered the rich stories behind independently produced videogames, and turned some preliminary interviews into first one Kickstarter campaign, and then another. The resulting film, "Indie Game: The Movie," won an award at the Sundance Film Festival in early 2012. But then, rather than accept deals for conventional film distribution, the two organized their own tour, renting theatres and meeting Kickstarter backers around North America. They ultimately controlled their own digital distribution as well. We discuss their journey of the last two years, which remains underway as they ready special features.
