With Shane being back from his vacation that mean the extravaganza is back giving our sometimes terrible sports opinions on our possible new day. This week we talked about Dallas giving Dakota that terrible contract, us being right about Izzy & MARCH MADNESS being back.
Everyone is on their own mission. Michelle and Roger make their way to the Navigation deck, but of course it's deserted. Meanwhile, Skye and Erika are shrouded in darkness and under attack by one of the deer creatures. But Erika hears Shane in the elevator shaft which gives her hope. After Shane tells Cora about Erika and Skye, they proceed to escape the engine room. The only problem is there's only one way out. By ladder. With Shane now being paralyzed, it won't be easy for him to escape.Music:"Blue Feather" and "MeasuredPaces" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/"The Beach" by Dylan Mixer of dmixmusic.com
This weekend I'm rolling both solo parenting and solo on the pod. With Shane out on a trip, the sim and the chat serve as my co-host. The past couple of weeks this sim has had some insane moments of prophecy and I look for that to continue this week. I actually spend some time during this virtual fever dream trying to figure out exactly what those moments might be. I spend even more moments dancing to Epic Sax man. Trust me, this all makes sense. It's perfectly normal. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/herloyalsons/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/herloyalsons/support
We're back! Curtis and Ryan begin a new year (season?) of UNinFORMED Anime with Pop Team Epic, a show about two little girls? Maybe? We're still not really sure. With Shane stuck in a Dokkan Battle hole, the guys spend a little time talking about the nonsense of the show before shooting the shit. Thanks for listening! Series: Pop Team EpicEpisode: 4 SWGP 2018
With Shane and Susan away, Ben and Tamara are joined by Quinta Jurecic and Shannon Togawa Mercer to answer the questions you submitted on Twitter! It’s a potpourri of NatSec analysis, with a dollop of humor, and a soupçon of Scotch!
As far as it goes with hand claps and cowbells, the majority of people are 2/3 of the way there. With Shane rejoining the podcast after a brief sabbatical, we felt it was a good time for another mixtape episode. But don't fear the reaper, we've collected 12 great tunes that showcase (or don't) the percussive beauty of skin on skin and wood on metal bovine accessory. Enjoy! Round 1 ###[Close To Me][1] - *The Cure* ### This is the first song I can remember noticing hand claps. I mean of course, I had heard them in songs before, but they are so obvious in this one, not to mention I first heard this song around the age when I started really paying attention to music. ###Hair Of The Dog - Nazareth ### This song could have easily been substituted for Blue Oyster Cult's "Don't Fear the Reaper" in the classic Walken SNL sketch, as it features the the most over-the-top employment of 70's cowbell to ever emerge from a cannabis-fogged van. Scotland's answer to AC/DC--I would so totally go see them today if they toured together--even if Nazareth's bass player is the only remaining member left over from this era. ###Your Life Is A Lie - MGMT ### Not exactly what you would immediately tag as a "single" from indie rock giants MGMT but the video certainly has legs. The solid thunk of the cowbell (or perhaps just a lead pipe) transcends the stereotypical 70's rhythmic standard heard everywhere, including through some of this podcast. You can thank acid for this one. ###Stars and Sons - Broken Social Scene ### Sometimes the handclaps resonate more when you have to wait for them, and that's exactly what happens with Stars and Sons -- this is Broken Social Scene at full swagger, and the handclaps here serve as an exclamation point, culminating the building tension within the track. No bubblegum to be found. Round 2 ###[Nothing'severgonnastandinmyway(again)][5] - *Wilco* ### A great song off of a great album. *Summerteeth* is criminally underrated. The handclaps in this one aren't as prominently featured as other songs on this list, but they are just right. ###Hey Ya! - OutKast ### I don't give half a shit what the rest rest of the guys around the table care about this song, as it is pure genius to my ears--to the point that I actively searched my radio dial incessantly for it at its popular zenith. This is catchy as all-hell, the video delivers in spades, and marked the high point of a double album (which, if we're "being honest" was really just two solo records sewn together). Also, it features hand-claps. ###Lowrider - War ### There's a real root of Chicano and Cuban percussion throughout this gem and the cowbell features prominently thus. Performed by the band War, who also gave us hits like "Spill The Wine" and "Why Can't We Be Friends?", it seems difficult to imagine anyone who has not heard that punchy trumpet riff at least a dozen times. ###House of Jealous Lovers - The Rapture ### You will not be surprised to learn that James Murphy had a hand in production here, and to that extent this sounds like the sibling of a long lost LCD Soundsystem release. At the time the band felt a dance song might alienate their fans, but why? This track is a calorie burn waiting to happen. Both cowbells and handclaps join the party. Round 3 ###[Cecilia][9] - *Simon & Garfunkel* ### What can I say, the patron saint of handclap songs, somebody was gonna need to pick this one. ###Stuck In The Middle With You - Stealers Wheel ### There is so much to love about this song/video, from its 70's bell-bottom majesty to its literal interpretation of being stuck between a clown and a joker (although--party game--guess which one is which). This also features both cowbell and hand-claps, which gives it a double-whammy for this episode. I have my doubts, but it would appear that Kevin also spontaneously picked out the solo artist that this band spawned. One last thing: I would be derelict in my duty if I didn't give away the spoiler that there are no ears severed in this. Deal with it, and just go re-watch Reservoir Dogs. ###Groove Is In The Heart - Deee-Lite ### When I was a sophomore in college, my buddy Hondo made up his own lyrics to this song called "Move Your Shopping Cart", with the chorus ringing out "I'm Krogerin' for my mother". It's an earworm that often sidelines my brain for days at a time with a nice, driving (and likely sampled) cowbell keeping it all together. ###Clever Girls - Paul Carlberg ### It seems appropriate to note the omnipresent Swedish songwriting tradition here, but we spend precious little time discussing up and coming songcraft in that regard...those who pen the smash hits get all the ink. For his part, Pelle Carlberg knows his way around a ditty, and this buoyant track with the overly complicated name brings us home.
At some point in our lives, we all experience a feeling of loneliness. It’s a natural human experience and for some, the struggle is worse than others… but it can be a struggle nonetheless. And loneliness doesn’t discriminate based upon age… but I’d venture to say that for kids and teens today, the feeling of loneliness can be crippling. I know for me, I struggled with feeling lonely a lot growing up. I was bullied in elementary and middle school and I never felt like I fit in. There were days where I’d wake up and I wouldn’t want to go to school… I’d fake sick hoping I could avoid the lunch cafeteria for another day. I just felt lost and I didn’t know what to do… I eventually learned ways to cope with that feeling and make a solid group of friends, but those years were so hard. have you ever felt that way? Was this something you ever struggled with? How did you handle it? Did you go with the motions or do you decide to take matters in to your own hands? My guest this week is Shane Feldman, the founder and CEO of Count Me In, the largest youth-run organization in the world that has impacted over 10 million youth in over 100 countries. The organization inspires youth to be positive change agents in their community, and aims to transform the way teens see themselves in connection to the world through volunteerism, community, and mentorship. With Shane at the helm, Count Me In is a global leader in immersive and practical student leadership training and community building, and Shane now travels the globe sharing his story and inspiring corporate and educational audiences to create an inclusive culture of connection. Shane is currently on the A&E docuseries “Undercover High” and has been featured on the Hallmark Channel, CBS, Fox, Yahoo, and the Huffington Post. I loved my time with him and I know you will love this episode! About Shane: Shane Feldman is an internationally recognized youth empowerment expert, motivational speaker, producer, and social entrepreneur. As Founder and CEO of Count Me In, Shane is the creative strategist and visionary behind the world’s largest youth-run organization that has impacted over 10-million youth in over 100 countries. Shane appears in the new docuseries “Undercover High”, premiering on A&E this fall. The eye-opening television series takes a first-hand look at the inner-workings of the universal American experience of life in public high school. The groundbreaking series sent Shane back to high school, embedded as a teenager, to uncover what life is really like for a public high school student today. As a child of divorce, Shane was constantly moving with his mom, lacked consistent male role models, experienced relentless bullying, and felt socially isolated. He had moved upwards of eight times before entering high school. After moving to yet another brand new city, Shane was rejected by his first choice school, and entered 9th grade desperate for a positive experience, but instead felt lost and invisible. With the help of a very committed guidance counselor, Shane became active in local clubs, theater and volunteerism. Getting involved turned Shane’s life around, and inspired him to launch a school project to help his peers find their passion through community involvement. What started as a small project remarkably went viral, and has since evolved into the global phenomenon known as Count Me In. Born out of Shane’s own challenges and experiences, Count Me In inspires youth to be positive change agents in their community. With Shane at the helm, Count Me In is a global leader in immersive and practical student leadership training, and community building. Over the past decade, the organization has inspired tens of thousands of youth-led volunteer projects, equating to over 100-million hours of community service worldwide, worth $2.4 billion. Once socially isolated, Shane is now a renowned youth advocate committed to energizing those who feel lost or disenfranchised as he once did. As an expert on the power of positivity and human potential, Shane travels the globe sharing his story, inspiring corporate and educational audiences to create an inclusive culture of connection, and helping them uncover their value and potential. Shane has consulted for Microsoft, the Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA), GEAR UP, the International Student Leadership Conference, and Pencils of Promise. He has appeared on national media, was recognized by The United Nations Youth Assembly and the President’s volunteer initiative, Serve.Gov, and was named on Youth In Motion’s 20 Under 20 list.

Pokemon Go got another patch this week that changed the controversial radar, but players in one city are seeing what may be the true future of this feature. With Shane out this week at a convention, our friend Mike steps in to talk about all the latest with Pokemon Go AND the Pokemon Sun/Moon trailer this week. We gush over some of the new Alolan forms (omg Raichu!) and talk about some of the new Pokemon reveals as well as Team Skull.
Look! Wait, I mean listen.... It's a podcast about The X-Files. With Shane, Sadie and me. We are eXcited about the new episodes coming out and will be podcasting about them. You will like it and you will want more.
Somewhere between My Girl impersonations and engagement ring critiques, Erica and Emily dive swim cap-first into the non-peed-in pool that was Yes/No, an episode that tore us apart like a cheese steak being eaten by Shane. Look, we wouldn’t make fat jokes if Glee didn’t seem so hateful of fat people, what with their ban on allowing Mercedes to don a swimsuit. Unless it’s a black thing, at which point we’re even MORE offended. Anyway, it’s a dramatic episode from every direction and we haven’t even begun to discuss its depiction of the military. Listen hard and let us know your thoughts at gleekast@gmail.com or on our forums at palavr.com. We want to hear your theories on McKinley’s pool policy, Will’s lame bachelor party in the making, and why exactly is I’m With Shane the new law of the land.
