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.

For more of that new, silky smooth Dupont voice, check out Escape Pod #46.

Intro by Eric and Cohry of Vox Monitor.

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. Find out why on the next episode. Intro by Jack of Kickass Podcast.

36.9 MB / 40 min. Taking a sick day, and under the influence of numerous medications, we delve into the following: Hawks and cats, character traits, Castaway starring Tom Hanks, my employment at the National Geographic Society, squash balls, obfuscation, my employment at the HealthSouth Corporation, unintentional rhyming, T Barnabus WigWiggins, tech support, singularity, money saving tips, beating the computers, John Henry, Tom Cruise, Scientology and regimentation. Intro by Frank Edward Nora of The Overnightscape.

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!

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.
