The Turble Show # 2: Hellooooo Nurse

Postby Matthew Notch » Wed Nov 20, 2013 9:15 pm



Please enjoy this, the second installment of our podcast, The Turble Show, in which the lovely sunglasses joins us for a chat and answers some of your pressing and dire questions.

Segment 1: If it hasn't become apparent yet, when we're on Skype it's possible to type messages as well while you're connected. This is the emoticon that disturbs me (Notch) so very much...

Also remember that the Skype animates it to shake its tongue back and forth... maybe it's just me


Segment 2: This is Aviel's first segment with us, and from the looks of things, probably won't be the last one!

Segment 3: Please don't ask me how I ended up on The Stanley Cup while browsing Urban Dictionary one time. As it turns out, the particular definition I had found has since been stricken from the entry. Here you go!

Segment 4: Debate rages on as to whether My Immortal is actually an attempt at literature or a troll. I (Notch) fall firmly on the side of troll, just because of little things like, for example, her character's name, Dementia. Hey, and now there's a series based on it!

Also, Amy Lee is the dramatic lead singer of Evanescence.

Segment 5: Again, send your segments to jugularnotch@yahoo.com, whether you attach the files in an email or link to a private sound on SoundCloud. Remember, though: if you put it up on SoundCloud, please make it downloadable!

Segment 6: Note the hotness of young Angela Lansbury.

Talk about helloing your nurses

I am listening. Which one of you sounds sorta like Penn Jillette? (Edit: It's JT.)

Oh my God, Avi sounds just like I thought he would! His voice is yummy and soothing... like chocolate cake!

I go by Avi. I don't hate that.

Some thoughts though:

The hosts are plenty humorous and amicable, but really need a topic or topics of discussion to be set beforehand. Write down the beat and follow it. Doods, Lind, and I were potentially planning a political conversation segment. Obviously that would be more serious, so for the normal hosts, it would be great to hear them talk about specific pop cultural events or items a la After Hours. That's just a recommendation though, if you all have other ideas, go for it.

I don't know who that guy was who was talking about the ACA, but we should definitely listen to him, he seems pretty bright.

Bert wasn't talking about what I was. That's much more traditional insurance company dickishness of the style "we might have to actually do our jobs if we cover you, and that would cost money, so go away."

Onions make your eyes cry because they released a compound that mixes with your eye fluids to create sulfuric acid. This is a simple chemical process basically independent of any biology, so chewing on something isn't going to make a difference.

The "Ask a Nurse" section was excellent, and I'd definitely like to see more "Ask a Nurse" or "Ask an $occupation" or "Ask a $minority" segments. It was directed, humorous, and informative. Basically, just start taking threads in the great library and make segments out of them.

I did not know that Risperidone increased carbohydrate craving, but holy shit does that explain my diet while I was on it. Luckily I no longer need it.

Pressure waves on the level of 180+ decibels can kill you. A rocket taking off is 180 decibels. So a skrillex song would need to be about that loud.

Great, now I won't be the first suspect when I kill and eat George Clooney this week.

Whenever something happens to George Clooney I'm always the number one suspect. They have my picture posted around every movie shoot he's on.

TCSers, I need your help. In order to keep our ambitious title of "The Comment Section" we need some stuff to comment on. In order to provide that sweet, sweet comment fodder, please PM me links to stupid, weird, or funny news to read in the show.

What am I looking for? The rediculous things that people do. Stuff that gets someones name in a Cracked article. If some guy is peeping on women from inside a porta potty, I want to know about it. If Amsterdam starts a program that employs chronic alcoholics to clean the streets, and pays them in beer, link me that shit. Except not those links. I have those already.

The only condition is no death. If some idiot jumps into the polar bear enclosure at the zoo and gets mauled, I can only use the story if he lives. I will still laugh about it if he dies, as should you, but it would be in poor taste to do so publicly.

Contributors will be credited on show for linking me the story. Thanks in advance for making the show terrible only because we are all terrible people and not because the podcast itself is terrible.

I said it in IRC, and I will say it here:

Bert sounds like S.W.A.I.M.

Try to unhear it.

Thanks to this podcast I am aware that My Immortal exists. I didn't get to read the fanfic, but I'm still calling Poe's Law. I did watch the web series, though, and it's actually a parody of that thing that migh or might not be a parody itself. It's funny...ish.

Anyway, what did I get out watching it? This awesome monkees/Iron Maiden mash-up that plays in one of the episodes.

I was thinking that we need to move the Turble Show ( and perhaps other podcasts) out of the Other section. It's wasted here.
Suggestions?

Make it its own section? Or add it to 'Things From the Web?' I'm not real sure, though.

I do think there should be a "suggested topics" thread as in: what do you want these lovely people to talk about?

I'd say yes on the TCS podcast subforum, with a thread for each episode like it's been done so far, but also a couple of threads for suggestions/submissions and general discussion.
It would also help to promote the podcast if every time an episode was released it had a global announcement and/or a general PM to all users.

I haven't listened yet, but Notch (Jugs!) is a suprisingly talented DJ-sounding guy, kudos.

I am just remembering that I never did comment on the first podcast either, for shame.

I'll resolve that.


However, this post it concerning the location of this topic.

My executive decision is thus:

Moving Content into Media, and renaming "Other" to "Podcasts".


That'll clear up the front page a bit, making it shorter, and I think will give a more logical layout to it too.


Any thoughts?
