Sat, 30 September 2006 40 MB / 55 min. Season two starts with a bang! Err, not really. Unless your idea of a “bang� is talking about the events of Sept. 11, 2001. In other words, not the upbeat note on which we had intended to launch Season Two, but so be it. Enrich your podcast listening experience with this supplementary material and participate in the attendance roll call on the blog page. If that’s not enough to keep you busy, check out the new TOA Corp Website, the new merchandise at the Steve Dupont Corporation Giftshop or read a book for chrissakes. By the way, 2.dash.1 is shorthand for Season 2, Episode 1. That’s the notation and we’re sticking to it! Intro by Eric and Cohry of the now-defunct Vox Monitor podcast review podcast.

Mon, 24 July 2006 15.8 MB / 23 min. The first in a four part series chronicling a weekend camping trip to Cheeha State Park here in Alabama. I made several recordings over the two days, and decided to present them in reverse order. Memento-style, if you will. So every time you hear the harp flashback sound, we are going back in time. Also, I have done minimal editing and not included sound clips as usual to keep the experience as natural, or organic, as possible. As a result, these episodes are not the fast-paced TOA you have become accustomed to, so I might suggest whittling or stacking cordwood whilst listening to pass the time. Intro by JV of No 1s Listening. Comments[6] |
Wed, 19 July 2006 24 MB / 34 min. Recording on a Saturday morning, I try to get some work done in the yard and speak coherently at the same time. Not an easy thing to do, in fact, I have no idea what to write here in the show notes. Something about micropiping? Intro by JV of No 1’s Listening.
On a different note, no pun intended, I would like to extend a special thanks to those of you who have taken the time to write reviews on iTunes and/or Yahoo and add TOA to your favorites at the Podcast Pickle. It was debated whether or not to even ask – the Bigwigs wanted me to devote airtime to it, but I refused – so we compromised with an appeal in the show notes. The hope, of course, is to increase the profile of the show and attract more listeners. After all, the Obtuse Angle Corporation desires what every good corporation desires. Profitable growth. Anyway, thanks for your support and have a day.

Thu, 25 May 2006 25.3 MB / 37 min. A special holiday treat for Memorial Day weekend! I am headed to the beach myself, so thought it apropos to give you the third and final lost episode of TOA. Originally TOA number 3 entitled Faux Bachelor Beachcombing Bonanza, this is a preamble followed by a flashback to an April 2005 stroll along the beach during which I discuss utopia, scurvy and teenage girls. I also plan the infiltration of a certain unfinished beach mansion (pictured). All compliments of the DM-1 of course, so the sound quality is a little coarse to say the least.

Mon, 22 May 2006 17 MB / 24 min. I’ve got a solution to the immigration problem if anyone in Washington is listening. We could do it without mongrels, but the MMM does have a ring to it, yes? And this is important in the political arena. Things must have rings. Of course this conversation is all in good fun, as opposed to the end of the show, which is a real downer. My bad on that one.

Wed, 26 April 2006 32.7 MB / 47 min. The corporation sent me home early due to bad weather, yet the weather could not have been better. In fact, I played a lovely game of croquet with Barnabus after recording the show. 58 is experimental on a few different levels. One, it’s very spatial (pronounced SPAY-SHUL). Two, it’s very special (also pronounced SPAY-SHUL). Three, it’s very organic. Not more organic than a pile of actual shit from a bull, but more organic than most of the bullshit that passes as organic these days. Four – are we really up to four? Jesus. Four, the editing was done with a program called Mixcraft as opposed to Audacity, and for that reason there is less editing than usual. Names named: Seth. Funtime Ben. NEW CONTEST!!!

Thu, 20 April 2006 19.1 MB / 28 min. That is, not sorry for how much this episode blows. What I can assure you, however, is that it will not happen again. At least not until the time comes at which it inevitably happens. The good news is that I hardly even mention our beloved sponsor, The VersaFrame Corporation.

Wed, 29 March 2006 32.6 MB / 47 min. Yes indeed folks, at long last TOA Corp has entered the 21st
century of sound, but it did not come without a price. Hear why I told the
BigWigs to go to hell and then settle in for another lost classic, TOA number 2.
In this seemingly ancient episode I flashback to a night I holed up in a posh
Chicago hotel and babbled on about fetuses, ants, starfish, Jon Bon Jovi and
much more.

Thu, 23 March 2006 30.6 MB / 44 min. Little change of pace today. I drop by my friends’ Shaun and India’s place to watch the Steelers-Broncos game on their big screen TV and shoot the shit. The main topic of conversation is the high school rock band in which I played the role of lead singer. Play along and try to guess the name of the band! Other topics include shooting beer and people out of cannons and slingshots, total indemnification and boars’ heads. This episode also marks the end of an era at The Obtuse Angle.

Thu, 9 March 2006 42 MB / 46 min. Past Steve is your host today, and he’s distracted by the Steelers-Colts football. Third world relief strategies, mongers and meisters, substitute teaching, automatronics, nougat attacks, hacidic hats, dead v. undead v. zero, pieces of boats, anatomy of the Titanic disaster, photo finishes, Cambodian girl invents weather machine scenario, Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Hanky Commander, license to talk to myself, infomercial meets sitcom, Bob Costas, sticky buns. Apologies for the sloppy editing – that’s what happens when you start with 100+ min. of audio and your editing staff is drunk. Cheers! Comments[5] |
Tue, 28 February 2006 75.5 MB / 110 min. - In the words of Paul McCartney, it's been a long and winding road - but we made it to number 50 at last, and it only took 68 shows! So what we have here for you, dear listener, is basically a longish regular episode of TOA, a Big 50 Mega Prize Pack Giveaway Special and a lost classic, if you will - the very first TOA episode - all rolled into one bloated piece of media. Or, proverbially speaking, a bigass chunk of whale blubber that I will now attempt to cram down your throat.
Many thanks to all who have volunteered for duty on the HMS Obtuse Angle, braving the stormy Sea of Podcasting and taking up arms against the Sea Beast. Together we just might slay him.

Wed, 14 December 2005 27.1 MB / 39 min. An audio incarnation of Porsley, memory metaphors, business clichees, beating live horses and play-by-play of Skinemax's blockbuster hit, Bikini Cave Girl, plus a sneak peak at Attention. Deficit. Disorder., the debut novel by my friend Brad Listi ... Unfinished thoughts include: 1) Machines creating art. What if ... I had a software program into which I could feed all my previous episodes, so it could "learn" the various techniques employed in post production. And then I could feed it raw recordings and have it produce shows indistinguishable from the manually produced shows. Would this be a lesser art form by virtue of automation? 2) The epicenter of girls who enjoy watching porn is, without question, Princeton University in New Jersey. Trust me on this one. 3) The conclusion to Bikini Cave Girl: Well, I didn't watch the whole thing, but I do know that both the male and female archeologists have sex with the Cave Girl, at different times, and the female archeologist has a steamy three-way with the Cave Girl and Cave Man.

25.3 MB / 37 min. A special holiday treat for Memorial Day weekend! I am headed to the beach myself, so thought it apropos to give you the third and final lost episode of TOA. Originally TOA number 3 entitled Faux Bachelor Beachcombing Bonanza, this is a preamble followed by a flashback to an April 2005 stroll along the beach during which I discuss utopia, scurvy and teenage girls.

75.5 MB / 110 min. - In the words of Paul McCartney, it's been a long and winding road - but we made it to number 50 at last, and it only took 68 shows! So what we have here for you, dear listener, is basically a longish regular episode of TOA, a Big 50 Mega Prize Pack Giveaway Special and a lost classic, if you will - the very first TOA episode - all rolled into one bloated piece of media.
