Concerning Our Credibility

Dear Unedited podcast listeners,

I realize that it has been a while since I've said hi - at least on the blog - as I've just left it all up to Megan to maintain it as of late. Which is not cool because I am supposed to be the social-relations end of things and Megan's supposed to be the techy one (roles that neither of us really decided on) but, well, what can you do?

Any-hoo, Anton brought up the issue that we really aren't "unedited", in lieu of what is claimed by the title of the podcast and so I just wanted to clear up some misgivings that may surround the issue. True, we do edit our podcasts but as Anton guessed, it is mainly to cut out our fifteen-minute-long rants. However, just for you to keep in mind Anton: your podcast title is more of a "guideline," as you may, or, it speaks much more for the content and less for the actual podcast.

The point: our subject matter and more importantly our opinions are unedited. The actual podcast?

Well, let's just say it's in your best interest.

Have a great week!
Always,
Rosy

Unedited Podcast 18: All in the Family

This episode is combination of Thanksgiving blather, talking about family gatherings and speculating about the concequences turning 18 will have on where we sit. Kiddie table? With the adults? It's just light chit chat to follow up our last episode, which ran pretty long. We're still open for feed back for episode 17, as well, so if you want to get your two-cents in, we'll include it in the next podcast as well as what you guys have to say about this one. Tell us about your Thanksgiving traditions!

Unedited Podcast 17: Baby Blues

After a short disappearance (sorry!), we return to tackle the issue of abortion. Where do you stand in the pro-life, pro-choice debate? We talk about that and related issues, as well as discuss the comments we received on our last episode about cliques. If you didn't catch the last issue, check it out and here what some of your fellow listeners had to say; thanks to everyone who left feedback! Also, sorry that this episode is so long. It was a big topic and we had several shout outs to make.



As per usual, you can direct download the episode by right-clicking here or the title of this post and choosing Save Target As... OR you can just follow the instructions in the left side bar for how to subscribe using iTunes so that you can have them download straight to your MP3 player.



The article mentioned in the episode can be found here, at YA for Obama and titled Choice and Extremism. It's by Lauren McLaughlin and she makes quite the convincing arguement. Check it out; they have a lot of interesting articles up, actually.



Always,

Megan

Unedited Podcast 16: Social Security in Numbers

This week, we discuss cliques, popularity, geekdom and where we all connect. What group do you belong to? Do you have to belong to any group at all? Plus, of course, we have a fake fact of the week and an interesting... theory after the final music.
(Note: If you're part of a certain clique and we've offended you, tell us! We want to hear about it and you can set the record straight.)

This and That and Housecleaning

So I've realized that sometimes I sound like an idiot on the air ("even if it was like... yeah. Like, even if it was like, like...") and this made me think: what are my annoying traits? I mean, I know that I can't tell a story to save my life, and that sometimes I'm a bit too intense and people don't realize I'm joking and decide that I'm just being a bitch for fun and I do snap my gum far too much... but, well, that's stuff I know. The question is: how many things do you do subconsciously? Good or bad? Kind of makes you wonder how other people see you, huh?

But that's just the thought of the day. On other fun podcasting tidbits...

Megan and I have decided that we might be starting a "Spot the Lyric!" game soon. I'm not going to guarantee anything anytime soon, but if you happen to hear a lyric from a song slipped in here or there, drop us an e-mail or comment and we'll probably award you on a points system... with an indefinite prize...

Also, as promised, here's the link for Scaachi's always-entertaining blog: http://gumptionandthebengaltiger.blogspot.com/. Check it out and enjoy! And remember, we're wondering what you guys think about a book/movie/band of the week. Leave us your thoughts and your freaky first-day-of-school stories or life-changing summer stories... Remember, fill in the blank. I finally realized that _________. And we'll have a good time laughing at you - I mean laughing at them! ahem, next episode.

Okay? Okay.
Love always,
Rosy
