  There actually is.  Line Island Time.  Right now I believe it's 
UTC+14.  After we moved back to Standard Time in November, it took me an 
hour to look up each of those time zones and make sure everything was in 
order.

The Talk2 List A Tuesday Apology

2009-11-24 Thread John Clower
Between shakey connections on Venison's part and a failing hard drive, 
rehearsals, and family in town on my part, , the Tuesday 
afternoon/evening lineup will be a bit out of comission today.  It's 
almost unheard of when The John Zone takes two consecutive weeks off, 
but I assure you all it isn't by choice.  I do hope that miraculously 
Venison's net connections will return and a Venison/Derek-laced Tuesday 
lineup may once again ensue as it did last week.  But if that doesn't go 
through, then hey, you know it only means that the two of us will be 
that much more enthusiastic when we return.  I apologize once more for 
the short notice and hope you all have a safe and wonderful week.

The Talk2 List Tonight on The John Zone

2009-10-12 Thread John Clower
 The baseball playoffs have begun!  Ok, so to be perfectly honest, I'd 
sooner watch a Bolivian cabinet meeting than catch a baseball game.  
However for the one or two people who may enjoy the sport, it will be 
paid a respectful tribute on the show tonight.
 Aside from being both Columbus Day and Canada's Thanksgiving 
yesterday, October 13 is almost one-eighth as significant.  For today 
marks the one hundred ninety-fifth anniversary of Sir Isaac Brock's 
successful repulsion of American forces under Stephen Van Rensselaer at 
The Battle of Queenston Heights.  This brought about a swift end to the 
Niagara Campaign, which had been undertaken by The United States for the 
expressed purpose of laying siege to British positions in Canada during 
The War of 1812.  I suppose it's rare when Canada can revel in any sort 
of military anniversary, so we here at The John Zone will relent and 
allow them this one, as well as commemorate the aforementioned Columbus 
Day and Canadian Thanksgiving.
 Tonight we also celebrate the birthdays of Ashanti, 29; Sacha Baron 
Cohen (better known to the world as Borat), 38; British opera singer 
Paul Potts, 39; Rhett Akins, 40; Joey Belladonna (of Anthrax), 49; Sammy 
Hagar, 62; Robert Lamm (of Chicago), 65; and Paul Simon, 68.  All this 
and the latest Michael Jackson single, as well as your requests, 
comments, and leftover potato salad are welcomed beginning tonight at 
11PM BST, 6PM EDT, 5PM CDT, 3PM PDT, noon HAST, 11AM SST, and Wednesday

The Talk2 List Tonight on The John Zone - Babies, the Chinese, Pooping Playlists, Football, and More

2009-09-21 Thread John Clower
 First and foremost I must open this sort of trailer by offering my 
congratulations to Andre and Kirsten on the birth of their son, Jacob 
Peter Louis, born yesterday at 6:58 AM BST with a weight of 10.6 LBs.  
For those who haven't, I encourage you to offer up your well wishes when 
you can.  With a baby boy that big, his parents will need all the well 
wishes they can get, I'd imagine.
 Next, I feel the need to preface this promotion by letting everyone 
know that The Beyond Radio Network has not fallen down on itself.  Due 
to the actions of a few jerks from China who had nothing better to do 
over in the land of Hu, archives and autimation have been taken down 
throughout the course of the rest of September to prevent any additional 
costs on data and bandwidth and such.  Therefore in honor of their 
sudden, but malevolent, interest in the network, tonight's edition of 
The John Zone will pay tribute to them in the most sardonic way 
possible.  (The availability of show archives will resume on October 1.  
In the meantime, consult each show broadcaster for any desired archive, 
as most of us plan to post September broadcasts on personal or alternate 
servers for the next week or two.)
 A recent series of Twitterings from two of the station's most beloved 
and elderly Sacramentons posed the very interesting question of what 
tracks could comprise the ultimate "music to poop by" playlist.  I have 
my own selections of course, but tonight I encourage listeners young and 
old, black or white, regular or not so regular to tune in with 
suggestions of your own.
 I know that few of the usual listeners are even remotely interested in 
the sports world.  However the Dallas Cowboys suffered a loss at the 
first regular season game held at the new billion dollar Cowboys Stadium 
this past Sunday evening at the hands of the New York Giants.  Never 
missing an opportunity to open myself up to on-air ridicule, this is 
another chance for those of you in Yankee territory to give this Texan a 
hard time, as the game was not decided until literally the last eight 
seconds of the fourth quarter.  If not for the supply of chicken wings 
and roasted peanuts, I would have cried.
 Finally The John Zone celebrates several notable September 22 
birthdays: including Emilie Autumn, 30; Mystikal, 39; Matt Sharp of 
Weezer, 40; Joan Jett and Andrea Bocelli, 51; Toni Basil, 66; and 
Jeremiah Wright, 69; as well as Bulgarian and Malian Independence Day.  
Your requests, comments, and fizzy drinks are as always welcome.  So 
tune in tonight to http://listen.tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg.m3u beginning at 
6PM EDT, 5PM CDT, 3PM PDT, 11PM BST, and Wednesday at midnight CEST, 8AM 
CST, 10AM NZST, and noon CKT, and let's kick off the change of seasons 
the way such autumnal equinoxes were meant to be celebrated!

The Talk2 List Tonight on The John Zone

2009-08-31 Thread John Clower
 It's been awhile since I've posted what some might call a show teaser, 
or disclaimer, depending on your opinion.  But despite their outlines 
not being passed along, The John Zone is very much alive and kicking, 
wriggling about like a lethargic marmoset caught in a bear trap.
 Throughout the month of August, the dozens of fictional staff 
personell have been laboring laboriously to comemmorate Woodstock's 
fortieth anniversary, complete with any and all serious and satirical 
tracks on the subject of the 60s counter-culture movement.  Most would 
quickly point out that it is in fact September, but as the septic tank 
must once every few decades be drained, refilled, and swam in, so too 
must the vast stores of material prepared for past shows be spilled out 
onto the proverbial airwaves for all to enjoy.
 Students around the world have been returning to schools of all sorts 
throughout the past few weeks.  In their honor, we must give them all a
proper send-off in the traditional comedic fashion, while being 
courteous and not pointing out the fact that many of us never ever have 
to go back to school ever again.  All of this, along with Weird Al 
Yankovic's latest single, an update on my unfortunate grad school 
anecdote, plenty of coffee, an almost tasteful tribute to the late Ted 
Kennedy,your requests, comments, and flan will round out another 
edition of The John Zone, beginning tonight at 6PM EDT, 5PM CDT, 11PM 
BST, and on Wednesday at 8AM CST and 10AM NZST.
 For those who may not have listened to any broadcast on The Beyond 
Radio Network for some time, fear not, for the link, like the 
aforementioned septic tank, has not been changed for the better part of 
seven months.  Simply click http://listen.tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg.m3u,

The Talk2 List Preliminary Plans for a Venisonathon

2009-08-28 Thread John Clower
 For those who tuned in to the August 21 edition of Venison Stew, you 
may recall that talk surfaced between a few of his listeners regarding a 
possible trans-stational telethon, carried out for the expressed purpose 
of helping him through some tough times.  Most of us know the 
long and short of the matter, but you can read more about the situation 
at 
http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.ListAll&friendId=128753806.  
Since multiple stations will likely be involved, it is important to note 
that this is not an attempt in any way, shape, or form to usurp the 
scheduled weekly line-ups of any station.  Moreover I think for the sake 
of eliminating any hard feelings, it would be best if participants avoid 
simulcasting on the servers of other stations involved.  Instead, the 
preliminary plan is to draw up a schedule that can then be passed around 
to the generic mailing lists of each station involved, complete with 
messenger and listening info for each station.  For those on the 
scheduled weekly line-ups who do not wish to do any extended or random 
broadcasts, we may have an audio file or two about this event that we 
would ask them to play once or twice during their show.  I know this is 
a vague foundation on which to base such a thing, but again, that's why 
it's a preliminary plan.  If you are interested or have concerns, 
questions, or comments about this matter, rather than clutter up the 
station lists, I'd instead ask that you contact myself or Niio, who must 
be creditted for getting this thing started.  Venison has done a lot for 
each network, and I like to think of our various virtual communities as 
extended families of sorts.  Whether it's $5 or $50, every bit counts, 
and it goes without saying that Venison appreciates any and all help 
that can be given.


CONTACT INFO
 For yours truly, you can reach me via EMail or MSN/Windows/Windows 
Live at jclo...@charter.net.  My AIM and Skype screen names are 
reverendbigdawg.
For Niio, you can reach her via MSN/Windows/Windows Live messenger at

The Talk2 List Tonight on The John Zone

2009-06-09 Thread John Clower
  Some may tune in to The John Zone tonight in passing, and as such, shall
be very confused.  Tracks about ducks and the state of Georgia will be
interspersed with old Les Paul and Jackie Wilson recordings, strange
national anthems, and Marie Serneholt's latest single.  They may ask
themselves why John is doing such things.  Well, it just so happens that
June 9 is a day of great historic significance.  The Harvard Corporation was
founded on this day in 1650.  James Oglethorpe was granted a royal charter
on this day in 1732, which founded the state of Georgia.  A mass exodus of
Mormons took place on this day in 1856; and perhaps most importantly, Donald
Duck made his debut in the Disney short, Wise Little Hen, on this day in
1934.  Today also marks many a birthday: including Mae Whitman, 21; Matthew
Bellamy (of Muse), 31; Samoth (of Zyklon), 35; Michael J. Fox, 48; Jon Lord
(of Deep Purple), 68; Jackie Wilson, who would be 75; Johnny Ace, who would
be 80; Les Paul, 94; Fred Waring, who would be 109; and finally, Peter The
Great, who would be a mere 337 if he were still alive today.   There are
also several very important holidays which must be observed this evening.
For our Ugandan listeners, we shall not overlook the fact that today is
National Heroes Day; and our many friends in the Aland Islands are
celebrating Autonomy Day, which commemorates the now eighty-ninth
anniversary of their partial independence from Finland.  Such an occasion
cannot be ignored.  Finally, The John Zone will turn to Thailand, for
Bhumibol Adulyadej ascended to the Thai throne on this day in 1946.  Aged
eighty-one, he is the longest reigning monarch in the world, and based on
what I've been able to find out, one of the longest despised monarchs as
well.  All this, as well as your requests, comments, and handkerchiefs are
welcomed tonight from 6 to 10PM EDT at http://listen.tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg.

2009-06-01 Thread John Clower
  It's once again that time of the week where the pigeons and grackles of
automation flock for cover as The John Zone steamrolls its way into what
would otherwise have been a quiet Tuesday evening.  Tonight we pay tribute
to the sixty-fifth anniversary of the D day operations of June 6, 1944, as
well as the 113th birthday of the world's oldest surviving veteran, Henry
Allingham, who turned forty-eight years young on that fateful day.
  Also, one of our most beloved hens will have just completed her voyage
across this great country as of the beginning of tonight's broadcast.
Because she is awesome, and because she stayed up for my entire
twenty-six-hour broadcast from January 8, 2008, she and her voyage shall be
honored as only The John Zone can.  Your requests, comments, and phone calls
are welcomed as well.  http://listen.tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg is the link to

of The John Zone.


The Talk2 List This week on The John Zone

2009-05-26 Thread John Clower
  In May of 1984, Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird published the first issue of
a comic book in Northampton, Massachusetts about four mutated turtles.
Initially intended as a parody of several other existing comics, this
self-published work eventually drew the eye of Mark Freedman, a licensing
agent who saw commercial promise in this strange, new franchise.  Jerry
Sachs of the Sachs-Finley Agency initiated talks with the animaters at
Murakami-Wolf-Swenson, under the direction of Fred Wolf, to produce a
five-episode animated mini-series for the comic, which debuted on December
10, 1987.  Subsequent visits to Playmates Toys Inc in 1988 and a successful
second run of the mini-series led to the show being picked up for
syndication.  By 1990, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles brand had become a
juggernaut, coercing millions of viewers each Saturday morning to scope out
the totally awesome pizza-laden adventures.
  Tonight on The John Zone, we celebrate the twenty-fifth anniversary of
this phenomenon with scores of interviews, featurettes, trailers, and
anything turtle-related that can be conjured up on this machine of mine.  It
goes without saying that this series was a large part of my childhood, which
means that The John Zone will expand to a six-hour format this week to
appropriately commemorate this occasion without frightening off any
potential listeners who did not grow up with the series.
  Today also marks the thirty-eighth birthday of South Park co-creator, Matt
Stone, as well as the ninety-second anniversary of the world's
longest-lasting tornado, which began its seven-hour journey in Mattoon,
Illinois on this day in 1917.  These additional anniversaries, your
requests, comments, and leftover pizza  will be honored this afternoon
beginning at 4PM EDT at http://listen.tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg.

  It's hard to believe that it's already been a week since The John
Zone last besoiled the virtual airwaves, but indeed it has.  Well, not in a
practical sense, but that's beside the point.  Over the course of the past
ten days or so, TBRN has welcomed back several  people who have made sizable
contributions to our twisted, wonderful family.  Some of them have done
shows in the past.  Others are just good friends to most of us who have had
a lot on their plate, but it goes beyond that.  Derek, Arfy, Steve, and
Patrick each peaked at or above twenty listeners this past weekend.  To be
honest, it's probably been at least two years since that has happened.
There has also been talk of some of the shows from the days of yor making a
return to the network.  Now this isn't necessarily intended to begin a
melodramatic soliloquy about how wonderful this community is and how much I
cherish being apart of it, but in truth I am a nostalgic sap at heart.
Therefore reminiscing will be the overall theme of The John Zone this week.
However it will be laced with other things as well: including some Texans'
attempt at calypso music, a few odd clips from my Sunday, perhaps a new ID
or two, and, inspired by Nick Giannak, the Wesley Willis-Borat music
stylings of my new favorite artist, Ivan Hrvatska.  So whether it's for a
few minutes or a few hours, I invite old and new friends alike to tune in to
The John Zone at http://listen.tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg.m3u tonight from 6 to
10PM EDT, 11PM to 3AM BST, or midnight to 4AM CEST.  It will be hard to
compete with some of the shows from this weekend, but I'm certainly going to
do my best.

  After thirty hours of broadcasting on the network last week, John is
returning once again tonight to reek his own blend of ambiguous,
teriyaki-flavored havoc.  First and foremost, tonight's broadcast is hereby
dedicated to the newly wed Andre and Kirsten Louis.  Suffice it to say
appropriate tracks will be played in their honor.  Today also happens to be
Queen Elizabeth II's eighty-third birthday, as well as the seventy-first
birthday of Ernie Maresca, who wrote and produced much of Dion DiMucci's
early solo recordings of the early to mid-1960s.
  On a more somber note, many stateside will recall that yesterday marked
the tenth anniversary of the tragic Columbine shootings.  I felt that, as
lighthearted and upbeat as my broadcasts tend to be, such an anniversary
must be properly commemorated.  Finally, thanks to Derek Lane, we have an
update on Bryan vandervalk's condition.  For those who may not know, Bryan
is the infamous autistic listener from Canada who has been a loyal listener
to the network for nearly three years now.  Since 2006 he's found his way
into homages to Wesley Willis, carts, intros, the station's PBX, ID's, and
of course numerous phone calls.  The last we'd heard, which was about a
month ago, he had been in the hospital after suffering from what he
characterized as a lung problem of some sort.  Until yesterday, we haven't
been able to get in touch with him.  On the show tonight, we will have a
full update.  All this and a bit of Mavs talk with my church's music
director can be heard from 6 to 10PM EDT at

  For the first time in nearly four months, I finally got around to

recognized for their relative infrequence.  To compensate for that
weaker theme, it also happens to be spring break in many municipalities

celebrating birthdays today.  As such, The John Zone shall celebrate
right along with them.  Trance remixes of Eartha Kitt, a Seamus Kennedy

  Tonight on The John Zone we will feature many a morsel to tantalize
your mental palate and stimulate your oral fibers.  Actually, that
second part sounded a bit weird.  Scratch that then.  Songs about tea,
outakes from various rehearsals, and a few remaining football-related
recordings are three of the planned tangents for this evening.  Those
who are familiar with Alex's remixes of various show intros here on The
Beyond Radio Network, many of which relate to his fascination with
"slipping and sliding" may also be interested to hear how his Skype
karaoke to a Blackmore's Night tune on last Friday's edition of the
Digital Domain Online Radio Show can be manipulated and warped by yours
truly for his own amusement.  Tonight also marks the four hundred
sixty-seventh anniversary of Catherine Howard's imprisonment in the
Tower of London.  Being the history buff that I am, I feel that this
event must be commemorated as only The John Zone can.  Similarly, the
first legitimate severe weather outbreak of the year will conveniently
be unleashing itself upon North Central Texas throughout the evening.

  Tonight's edition of The John Zone will focus on our country's most
prevalent pastime, professional football.  Since many listeners are not
from the states, there will be plenty of material in support of
traditional football as well.  But with the Super Bowl having been
played two days ago, it is American football which will be most
prominent tonight.
 
  Originally I had intended to focus on some of the more comedic Super
Bowl commercials, but this year's lot was simply atrocious.  Therefore
Bill Cosby, Jerry Clower, Bone Crusher, Tim Wilson, Billy Connolly, Ben
Bernie and His Orchestra, Andy Griffith, the Super Mario Brothers, and
Fred Flintstone will have to pick up the slack.  Requests, comments, and

The Talk2 List Tonight on The John Zone

2008-07-29 Thread John Clower
  Tonight will be an unusually refined edition of The John Zone.  Sunday
evening I went to a concert, featuring Journey, Heart, and Cheap Trick.  For
reasons beyond my control, some stereo mics decided to jump on me during the
Journey concert, and a mono mic attacked me during Heart's set.  So
recordings from both groups, along with a pilot for a series I may try to do
once i have more time on my hands, will be paraded out for the virtual
hecklings of you all beginning tonight at 6PM Eastern Daylight Time at
http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg.  This may not sound like a lot for three
hours, but believe me, this will be another jam-packed, as opposed to
jelly-packed, broadcast.  Tune in, won't you?

  This evening, we begin tape 1 of a horribly embarrassing 4-tape radio show
that yours truly recorded in the summer of 1998.  If you thought Derek in
space was incriminating, you'll definitely be amused by my own helping of
audio blackmail.  Also featured tonight will be some never-before tracks
from Morning Musume, Dennis Day, and Phil Harris.  As usual, your comments,
suggestions, rants, and threats of a confusing nature are, as always,
welcome.  So tonight beginning at 6PM Eastern Time, why not direct your
media player of choice to http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg and enter The John
Zone.

Hey all
 
  More randomness abounds on the show tonight as Phil Harris and Russell
Peters delight with more comical genius, the former from the 1940's and the
latter from several years ago.  Also making its debut is the pilot for what
may very well be an interesting and ongoing serial, focused around a rescue
attempt of those brave souls who are in Transcriptionville day in and day
out.  This production will combine the resources not only of the meager John
Zone studios, but some of HKC's oddest and strangest manifestations will be
in on this as well.  And as if this weren't enough, John will feature his
own take on the recent Fannie Mae government bail-out, in typical John Zone
fashion of course, as well as a few recordings from this week's church
services.
 
  All this and more can be found tonight beginning at 6PM Eastern Daylight
Time at http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg.

The Talk2 List Tonight on The John Zone

2008-07-01 Thread John Clower
  After a week's hiatus, The John Zone returns tonight with a bounty of
randomness.  This evening you can listen in on a few hands of Gin rummy with
the Clower-Patterson-Hebert-Venable family, courtesy of last Friday night's
card game.  Also featured will be a few tunes from a friend of my dad's, as
well as some Indian-American comedy, several selections from the live action
Ninja Turtles sound tracks, and a beach-themed episode of Johnny Bravo.  No
doubt I'm forgetting something, as I always do.  But to find out, tune in to
http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg.m3u tonight beginning at 6PM Eastern Daylight
Time.

  Tonight should, failing some unforeseen circumstance, kick off the third
unofficial TBRN bi-annual Broadcastathon.  Beginning with venison Stew at
4PM, yours truly will take over at 6:00 and continue through until 6AM
Wednesday morning when JDX takes over, leading all brave souls to rejected
Realms of some of the finest science fiction drama this world has to offer.
 
  The show this evening promises to be another random and hopefully
hilarious experience for those who tune in.  Tonight I dip back in to more
music from the Radio Aahs days of the mid-1990's and feature a few brand new
(or perhaps not so brand new) Sesame Street ditties,) as well as a track or
three from Seamus Kennedy's children's album.  All this and more advice from
red Green, another new promo or two, a few tracks from the various Ninja
Turtles soundtracks, and a very bizarre exchange from a student
organizations meeting involving AIDS, lubrecant, and college freshmen can be
heard tonight beginning at 6PM Eastern Daylight Time at

  Tonight promises to bring forth another strange assortment of craziness
here on The John Zone.  After completing the May-mester this past Thursday,
a most special celebration is in order.  How might such a celebration be
undertaken, you may ask?  Well, we'll start off with brand new music from
the Russian pop duo T.A.T.U., add to that some Japanese happy-time super
show! fun go tracks, filet with a bit of good-natured political satire, and
season that interesting smelling mix with another song or two from Cheech
Marin's children's album.  In addition we dig up the true reason why Jessica
Simpson and Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo split up late last month.
All this and several new TBRN promos and words of advice from red Green
coming up tonight beginning at 6PM Eastern Daylight Time at

The Talk2 List Tonight on The John Zone

2008-05-27 Thread John Clower
  Tonight will be a very special edition of The John Zone for a number of
reasons.  First and foremost, we here at the nonexistent John Zone Studios
must pay tribute to the brave men and women in our armed services.  Now I
could write out a heart-felt and overly patriotic monologue to recite on the
show, but I think that Seamus Kennedy and Gordon Sinclair can do a much
better job than I.
 
  But today is a special day for other reasons as well.  The Batman comic
debuted on this day sixty-nine years ago.  The Disney feature The Three
Little Pigs premiered in theatres seventy-five years ago, and the voluptuous
city of Saint Petersburg turns 305 years young!  These three anniversaries
have nothing to do with one another, but they will be celebrated on the show
tonight nonetheless.  All this and an encore presentation of the red neck
bus driver can be found tonight beginning at 6PM Eastern Daylight Time at
http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg.

2008-05-20 Thread John Clower
  Owing to John's technological blunders, the drivers for his ever-reliant
PreSonus external sound card have been successfully derailed.  So there will
be no John Zone tonight.  However if this problem is remedied in short
order, a belated John Zone will pop up on Thursday at 6PM eastern Time,
immediately preceding Zay Nation on The Beyond Radio Network.  John
sincerely apologizes for the inconvenience, and for writing in the third
person when posting messages such as these.

  If Borat and his lovely wife Luenell were to have a daughter, and this
daughter happened to have children with Kung Fu Docta, their eldest son
might sound an awful lot like my comparative politics professor, Ko Maeda.
What's that?  you don't believe me?  Well, tune in tonight to tbrn.net
beginning at 6PM Eastern Time and judge for yourself.
 
  While it may be Tuesday, and yes, it may be two days late, we here at The
John Zone have mothers, too.  So we will be honoring them with mother and
mom-related recordings, some sincere and genuine, but some a bit comical in
nature, as is customary with The John Zone, including a very heartfelt
episode of the 1987 incarnation of The teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon
series.  After literally minutes of deliberation, it was eventually decided
that it would be more prudent to celebrate this day two days late as opposed
to five days early to make this theme as relevant as possible.
 
  This past Sunday was a rather busy one at my church.  In addition to being
Mother's Day, May 11 happened to fall on pentecost, as well as confirmation
Sunday (where we welcomed several young people into the Church.)  And as if
that weren't enough, we had six baptisms spanning the second and third
morning services.  I had also been asked by the music director to
participate in a vocal quartette for the first morning service, which was on
top of my singing and playing bass in the second contemporary service and
performing in the chancel choir for the third traditional service.
Essentially this is a roundabout way of saying that John has many
church-related recordings from this past Sunday, several of which wil be
featured tonight on The John Zone.
 
  If there is time tonight, I will make up for last week's error and
properly conduct a more concrete taste test to decisively conclude once and
for all which cookies are better, those made by Matt's Cookies or those made
by Cheryl & Co. Gourmet Cookies, Desserts and Gifts.  This may sound like a
lot to cram into a three-hour slot, and it is.  But tune in tonight to the
website mentioned above at the time mentioned above, and let's see if I can
pull it off.

Ah, that's the issue I've had for several months now.  When doing a search

which we all know and love and ideally gives us a complete forecast.  That's
the one that doesn't seem to be appearing anymore in the contact list,
regardless of what version of Miranda you may be using.  The second result
is the existing one that will show up in the list, but displays a similar

  For those who haven't seen the obnoxious countdown on my MSN
messenger,tonight will be my final broadcast on the Monday night line-up.
beginning May 6 I will be returning to my old time slot following Venison
Stew (from 6 to 9PM Eastern Time.)  So seeing as this will be the last
Monday night show, I felt that I should make this a special edition of The
John Zone.
 
  For those who grew up with the 1987 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon,
you will most definitely want to tune in tonight.  In going through these
TMNT DVD's of mine this past week, I have found a lot of wonderful material
which you guys will really get a kick out of.  Of course this show is not
centered on one theme, because I just don't have the attention span for that
sort of thing.  There will be more recordings from the Big Chill Second
Generation performance Friday, as well as the one we had at the Denton Arts
and Jazz Fest Sunday afternoon.  Also included will be a brief snippet of
the steel drum band that went on before us.  They were really quite good,
and I wish I'd been able to record more of their set.  But we'll just have
to make do with the bit I was able to get.
 
  Of course your requests and comments are, as always, welcomed as well.  So
why not tune in to http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg tonight beginning at 9PM
EDT, 8PM CDT, 6PM PDT, 4pM HST, or, for you folks out east, 3AM BST, 9AM

  As if doing three shows in less than one day's time wasn't enough, John is
back up on the TBRN docket tonight.  Tonight's program will feature another
chapter in the embarrassing saga of John's adolescent amiture radio, dated
April of 1999, along with a score of newly acquired musical ditties:
including some authentic British comedy, still more Sesame Street music, and
a yodel or two.
 
  April 21 also marks a state holiday here in Texas, commemorating the
decisive Texan victory at The Battle of San Jacinto fought on this day 172
years ago.  Since I am a good Texan, I must make some note of this day,
aided in large part by a few clips from a second season episode of King of

  Needless to say tonight's show will be a busy one, so why not tune in and
see what the cries of frustration are all about?

Oh come now.  You have to be a natural blond for that to count!  I am one,
and I make a point of finding the funnality in every activity possible, no
matter how mundane it may be.

  And don't worry about the one-line limit.  The same people who berate
one-lined Talk2 posts also find some bizarre delight in reposting archived
messages from four years ago.  Go figure.

Hey--I'm a blond, and I'd like to know at what point it was decided that we 
had more fun.

I have been a blond since I was 16 and am now 34, and I say again, I have 
yet to have had more fun as a result of my hair color.

Can someone please tell me?  Is this only reserved for "natural" blonds? Amy

The Talk2 List Tonight on The John Zone

2008-04-07 Thread John Clower
Hey all
 
  for those who missed my quasi-impromptu broadcast Saturday morning, I had
announced that this past Friday marked my two-year anniversary on The Beyond
Radio network.  As of last night, I finally have access to that pesky
external drive with all of my archives.  So tonight's show will partially be
devoted to reflecting on a few of the more interesting moments that I've
been privileged to be a part of.  Yes, I ended a sentence with a
conjunction!
 
  So if you've nothing else to occupy your time, why not tune in at 9PM EDT
to http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.oggg, and let's see what happens, shall we?


The Talk2 List Tonight on The John Zone

2008-03-31 Thread John Clower
Good afternoon all, or evening, or morning, or next afternoon, depending on
your location
 
  Tonight on The John Zone I pay tribute to my departing church choir
director by playing some clips from his final Sunday at Trinity, including a
very amusing roast, of which yours truly took part.  Also featured tonight
will be two recordings from a UNT composition major recital, which Steve and
I attended last Wednesday.  The pianist for the contemporary praise-type
band, of which we are in, debuted his doctoral composition that night.  It's
very different, but he makes some unusual noises using piano strings and
drums and sheets and what not.
 
  And since Amy sent out that link, you know I have to play that tune as
well.  As is customary, there will be much much more coming up tonight which
I have forgotten to mention.  So tune in at 9PM Eastern Daylight Time to
http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg and give me a hard time, won't you?

The Talk2 List This morning on The John Zone

  For those who don't know, I'll be spending the duration of Spring Break in
California with my family, so I will not be hosting or cohosting either The
John Zone or Blart Radio this weekend or next.  But since I've been somewhat
responsible with packing and the like, I've afforded myself a small window
of time in which to do a morning edition of The John Zone.  It will be
fairly relaxed.  Though since Saint Patrick's Day is on Monday, I will
present some never-before-heard Seamus Kennedy tunes.  I've also obtained
some very amusing Sesame Street tracks, so I'll be blasting those as well.
beer and Grover?  Hmm.  I guess they're similar.

  In this cheap plug for tonight's edition of The John Zone, I begin with a
riddle.  What do Lasgo, Shel Silverstein, The Association, Sesame Street,
and Paul Shanklin have in common?  Well?  Any guesses?  Ok, I have no clue
either.  But I have amassed many new wonderful recordings by these artists,
some of which I will feature on the show this evening.  I also have a video
clip dated March 10, 1990 of yours truly (and twin) spending our spring
break in Louisiana with my mom's side of the family.  Assuming I can track
it down and master it sometime within the next three hours, I'll have that
for you all as well tonight beginning at 9PM EDT at
http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg.  You can also expect another episode of The
Red Green Show to make an appearance, and of course your requests and
messages as well.
 
  I do apologize for the disjointed promotional post, but all of us here at
the mythical John Zone studios are still recovering from a bit of an
academic hangover.  Stupid papers!  So if you're looking for three hours of
distractionality, why not tune in tonight?  Come on.  You know you want to.

Are you a Democrat, Republican or Redneck?
  
 Here is a little test that will help you decide. The answer can be
 found by posing the following question:
  
  
 You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small
 children.
  
 Suddenly, an Islamic Terrorist with a huge knife comes around the
 corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, praises Allah,
 raises the knife, and charges at you.
  
 You are carrying a Glock cal 40, and you are an expert shot.
 
 You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family.
 What do you do??

 Democrat's Answer
  
 Well, that's not enough information to answer the question!
  
 Does the man look poor? Or oppressed?
  
 Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack?
 
 Could we run away?
 
 What does my wife think?
 
 What about the kids?
  
 Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of
 his hand?
  
 What does the law say about this situation?
  
 Does the Glock have an appropriate safety built into it?
  
 Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does
 this send to society and my children?
  
 Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me?
 
 If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while
 he was stabbing me?
  
 Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound
 me?
  
 Should I call 9-1-1?
  
 Why is this street so deserted?
  
 We need to raise taxes, have a paint and weed day and make this a
 happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior.
  
 This is all so confusing! I need to discuss it with some friends over a
 latte and try to come to a consensus.

The Talk2 List Possible re-airing of Monday's edition of The John Zone

2008-02-22 Thread John Clower
Hey all
 
  Since Darren did not do a show Monday, I opted to start my own slot ninety
minutes early, failing to let anyone know via the announcements list or
otherwise that I was doing so.  Consequentially much of what turned out to
be my most embarrassing incrimination yet had been played by the time the
show was scheduled to start at 9PM Eastern.  To afford anyone who missed it
the opportunity to hear a fourteen-year-old me carry on a Brak top twenty
countdown, complete with fake commercials and several early Johnisms, I will
re-air this week's edition of the John Zone beginning at 8:30 AM Eastern
Time tomorrow morning, which is 1:30 PM GMT and 2:30 AM NZDT.
 
  Now if I should happen to wake up at 10:00, then this obviously won't
happen.  But I have had one or two requests to re-air this particular show.
So I wil surely try to be up early enough so I don't step on Derek's slot.
I promise this re-airing concept won't become a regular occurance every
Saturday morning.  However this really was a fun edition, so John will make
this one exception.

  Alas, it is that time of the week once more where the younger Clower twin
takes over the Beyond Radio Network for three hours of sheer randomness.
Featured on this week's edition of the John Zone will be more live
recordings from The Band Behind The House, (see Blart from February 16 for
more details), as well as an amusing station ID featuring my nephew, Andrew,
and perhaps an episode of The Red Green Show if you're really really good.
 
  But what would The John Zone be without some form of incrimination?  This
week, I have decided to expose my dark secretive past and play for you all
one of the many KIDS Radio recordings of mine.  KIDS Radio was more or less
the WDGL or WPAT of my childhood.  Unfortunately almost all of the
recordings i made between 1995 and 1999 have survived.  So tonight I will
present you all with the tape that includes a top 20 countdown featuring the
ever-hyperactive Space Ghost sidekick, Brak.  Will I regret this?  Maybe so,
but it will be well worth the amusement.  So grab a beverage of a refreshing
and/or adult nature and kick back with, oh wait that's a different show,
tonight beginning at 9PM EST, 8PM CST, 4PM HST, 2AM GMT, and 3PM NZDT at

  Because mine is the show that never seems to go away, I shall be doing a
relaxed John Zone-type show beginning today at 11AM Eastern preceding
WDGLFM.  http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg should be tuned into, and
subsequently left on all day long.


RE: The Talk2 List John Cleese's "Letter to America"

2008-02-15 Thread John Clower
I came across this a few years ago, and I read somewhere that in fact this
wasn't written by John Cleese at all, but meerly falsely attributed to him.
'tis quite hilarious in either instance.  While reading the line about the
constant inserting of 'like' and 'you know' into common American dialogue, I
couldn't help but think of Vicky Pollard.  ""Yeah, but, no, but, yeah, but
no.  I sooo can't believe you said that!"'

Subject: The Talk2 List John Cleese's "Letter to America"


This is just hilarious!
 
Dear Citizens of America,


In view of your failure to elect a competent President and thus to govern
yourselves, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence,
effective immediately.
 
Her Sovereign Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, will resume monarchical duties
over all states, commonwealths and other territories (except Kansas, which
she does not fancy), as from Monday next.


Your new prime minister, Gordon Brown, will appoint a governor for America
without the need for further elections. Congress and the Senate will be
disbanded. A questionnaire may be circulated next year to determine whether
any of you noticed.


To aid in the transition to a British Crown Dependency, the following rules
are introduced with immediate effect:


1. You should look up "revocation" in the Oxford English Dictionary. Then
look up "aluminium," and check the pronunciation guide. You will be amazed
at just how wrongly you have been pronouncing it.


2. The letter 'U' will be reinstated in words such as 'colour', 'favour' and
'neighbour.' Likewise, you will learn to spell 'doughnut' without skipping
half the letters, and the suffix "ize" will be replaced by the suffix "ise."


3. You will learn that the suffix 'burgh' is pronounced 'burra'; you may
elect to spell Pittsburgh as 'Pittsberg' if you find you simply can't cope
with correct pronunciation.


4. Generally, you will be expected to raise your vocabulary to acceptable
levels (look up "vocabulary"). Using the same twenty-seven words
interspersed with filler noises such as "like" and "you know" is an
unacceptable and inefficient form of communication.


5. There is no such thing as "US English." We will let Microsoft know on
your behalf. The Microsoft spell-checker will be adjusted to take account of
the reinstated letter 'u' and the elimination of "-ize."


6. You will relearn your original national anthem, "God Save The Queen",
but only after fully carrying out Task #1 (see above).


7. July 4th will no longer be celebrated as a holiday. November 2nd will
be a new national holiday, but to be celebrated only in England. It will be
called "Come-Uppance Day."


8. You will learn to resolve personal issues without using guns, lawyers or
therapists. The fact that you need so many lawyers and therapists shows that
you're not adult enough to be independent. Guns should only be handled by
adults. If you're not adult enough to sort things out without suing someone
or speaking to a therapist then you're not grown up enough to handle a gun.


9. Therefore, you will no longer be allowed to own or carry anything more
dangerous than a vegetable peeler. A permit will be required if you wish to
carry a vegetable peeler in public.


10. All American cars are hereby banned. They are crap and this is for your
own good. When we show you German cars, you will understand what we mean.


11. All intersections will be replaced with roundabouts, and you will start
driving on the left with immediate effect. At the same time, you will go
metric immediately and without the benefit of conversion tables. Both
roundabouts and metrification will help you understand the British sense of
humour.


12. The Former USA will adopt UK prices on petrol (which you have been
calling "gasoline") - roughly $8/US per gallon. Get used to it.


13. You will learn to make real chips. Those things you call french fries
are not real chips, and those things you insist on calling potato chips are
properly called "crisps." Real chips are thick cut, fried in animal fat, and
dressed not with catsup but with malt vinegar.


14. Waiters and waitresses will be trained to be more aggressive with
customers.


15. The cold tasteless stuff you insist on calling beer is not actually beer
at all. Henceforth, only proper British Bitter will be referred to as
"beer," and European brews of known and accepted provenance will be referred
to as "Lager." American brands will be referred to as "Near-Frozen Gnat's
Urine," so that all can be sold without risk of further confusion.


16. Hollywood will be required occasionally to cast English actors as good
guys. Hollywood will also be required to cast English actors as English
characters. Watching Andie MacDowell attempt English dialogue in "Four
Weddings and a Funeral" was an experience akin to having one's ear removed
with a cheese 

The Talk2 List Tonight on The John Zone

2008-02-11 Thread John Clower
  Well since Thursday is Valentine's Day, I feel that it's only appropriate
that tonight at 9PM Eastern I dim the lights, break out some froo-froo
candles, and present my own take on the holiday and love in general.  Now
for those who even remotely know me, you know this won't be three hours of
shmaltzy sappy shtuff.  Many humorous love songs will abound, but this show
will be far more sentimental than cynical.  So tune in tonight at the
aforementioned time to http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg for some deep,

Derek's slot at http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg


The Talk2 List Tonight on The John Zone

2008-02-04 Thread John Clower
Good Monday all
 
  If all of the proverbial stars can align, this could be one of the most
jam-packed editions of The John Zone ever.  (that's jelly-packed for us
American types.)  For you international peoples who may not know, last night
marked our country's forty-second super bowl, which is one of the biggest
sporting events of the year, if not the biggest.  Usually the commercials
are even more entertaining than the game itself, and this year was no
exception--well, up until the fourth quarter.  Yours truly has some of the
highlights all isolated and ready to go for tonight's show, so be sure to
tune in for some Superbowlish American hilarity.  (Take that, Patriots!)
 
  And let's not forget that tomorrow is Marti Gras!  Since I have roots in
Louisiana, the festivities will be expanding to The John Zone, complete with
Cajun beds and Cajun tracks and gumbo!  How will gumbo transfer to online
radio?  ...  Well I'm not sure, but hey we'll think of something.
 
  Also featured this week will be part II of the tape I played last week
from our summer vacation in 1998.  And if I have enough time, I may line in
the infamous preschool video of me announcing to the world that 'I have to
go potty.'  Yes, embarrasment will abound tonight beginning at 9:00 Eastern
time at http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg.  Come on.  You know you won't want to
miss this!


The Talk2 List Tonight on The John Zone

2008-01-28 Thread John Clower
Well, in all honesty I have no clue whatsoever.  But unlike last week's
Monday night show, I can garantee that there will be plenty of
incrimination.  At this point I just don't know where it will come from.
But to find out, simply direct your media player of choice to
http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg tonight at 9:00 Eastern Time after the Duff
Domain.  Also featured tonight will be a few more bits from rodney
Carington, a new Da Buzz track or two, some more Jingle Cats, and who knows
what else.  It should be a fun show, so don't miss it, or Kung Fu Docta come
find you.
 
  Since my Monday night show makes it ridiculously late for the beloved
Britons, and because there won't be any family in town this weekend, I'm
also planning on doing a Saturday morning slot before WDGLFM from 11 to 2
Eastern, at least until I can decide on which time slot to make permanent.
As it stands, that will make for over twelve hours of nonstop live content!
Woohoo and other such noises of adulation.

The Talk2 List A John Zone time change

2008-01-21 Thread John Clower
Hey all
 
  After several correspondents with the professor of this seminar history
course, I am almost certain to be enrolled as of this time tomorrow.
Unfortunately this class falls on Tuesday nights from 6:30 to 9:30.  As much
as I hate to do this, I will need to move to a new time slot to facilitate
the change.  Ultimately classes have to come first, and i apologize to any
thirty somethings whose dinnertime entertainment might be compromised by
this development.  Still, I want to find a slot that will be the most
accommodating to all of you who help to make my brief time on the network
the best time of the week for me.  Below are the three-hour blocks that will
work with my very tight schedule.
 
Mondays: 9PM to 12AM
Tuesdays: 11PM to 2AM
Wednesdays: 10AM to 1PM (if absolutely necessary)
Saturdays: 11AM to 2PM (if absolutely necessary)
 
  Rather than reply directly to this post, please message me via AIM
(reverendbigdawg) or MSN ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) if you guys have a
preference.  As it stands now I will be doing a show tonight after Darren at
9PM Eastern, complete with worthwhile incrimination and material to
compensate for last week's lack of a proper John Zone, or any John Zone for
that matter.
 


The Talk2 List A Special Celebratory Edition of The John Zone!

2007-12-14 Thread John Clower
Oh yes
 
  Finals are done!  I am rid of those pesky scholastic shackles for an
entire month!  So come celebrate with John today at noon, since he was a bad
individual and was unable to do a show on Tuesday.  Featured this week will
be one or two Christmas specials, some music courtesy of Amy, and my tribute
to Emily Howard.  Oh that's right.  I made a tribute.  Also, as is
tradition, I will ceremoniously throw out all of the papers and such that
have collected in a conniving little pile under my desk.  It sounds very
stupid, and perhaps it is.  But for those who have dealt with long,
agonizing semesters, you know all too well just how much fun it is to get
rid of it at the end of the year.
 
  You guys don't want to miss this one.  Well, I suppose you could.  But
then you couldn't harass me during the show via [EMAIL PROTECTED] for
Msn/Windows/Whatever messengers, TBRNLive for AIM, or 1-866-558-8276 and
0207-070-84221 for American and British phones respectively.  Sorry, I
forget how to hyphonate British-type numbers.  http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg

lol Well because I wouldn't dare risk TBRN's two most beloved hens from
wasting away, and because I'm just flat burnt out at this point, I decided
to bail on tonight's event.  This isn't something I technically have to be
at.  It's more or less a political pannel discussion in which a friend of
mine is taking part.  But attending this would mean John would've had to
stay on campus till after 9:00 for two days in a row, and doing a show is
just far more enticing.  So be like Amy and Mary Ann and grab some
dinner-like objects and join me this evening at 6PM for a much-needed break
from the hustle and bustle and tustle? of your pre-pre-pre-Friday night
existences.  What does John have planned for this week's show?  Why not tune
in at 6 and find out!  Cuz right now, John doesn't know either.

via messengers or the TBRN home phone numbah.  I also have made a new ID,
and there is a particularly amusing intro for this week's show.  If you want
to be a non-John-friendly person and not tune in, I implore you to at least
stick around for this first bit, as Steve and I could not stop listening to
this recording all weekend.

Goody!
 
I don't know what else to say other than that, so I'
am just going to write filler in here so that I don't offend and write a one
line message.  *grins*
 
How awesome for you though!
 
You can now say that you've had two really great thanksgivings in a row!  I
like to think that I had something to do with one of them.  *laughing*
 
Ok off I go!
Peace out!

No work tomorrow. My parents reserved me for pretty much the whole day.
"We're coming to pick you up early!" 
 
This will be my first Thanksgiving with my Mom and Dad in 11 years, people.
Cool eh? I'm geeked about it.

Yay for three hours sleep and work to do.

Ah, and volume 2 incorporates the era from 1974 through 1979, which is prime

Yay Sesame Street!
 
It's not the same as it used to be...
I can say that cuz I was born in '74 and saw lots of the older episodes.
 
They were of course the pre-Elmo ones--which honestly is always awesome!
They were during the times when Jim Henson still did the voices of Kermit
and Earny.  Now they don't sound quite right...
 
Ah well.

Hey all
 
  As of 8:00 last night, a great burden has been lifted off my shoulders.
The past two weeks or so have seen a Clower become nearly catatonic with
anxiety, but the massive term project for my constitutional law class is now
complete.  So join me tonight at 6:00 Eastern Standard Time as I celebrate
in a manner only becoming of the John Zone.  Last Tuesday saw the release of
the second volume of the Sesame Street - Old School series on DVD.  Rather
than work on the aforementioned project, I spent much of Friday night and
Saturday morning ripping and cataloging various bits from the set.  Suffice
it to say that Sesame Street segments will most certainly be in abundance
tonight, along with some newly acquired music by Tim Wilson and Bob Rivers
(non-holiday of course), and perhaps a few never-before-heard tracks by
TBRN's favorite Irish minstrel, Seamus Kennedy.  As is the standard on The
Beyond Radio Network, your requests and comments and rants of a Non sequitur
nature are always welcome.  So direct your media player of choice to your
TBRN stream of choice tonight at 6:00 and let's see what happens!

The Talk2 List Tonight on The John Zone

2007-11-06 Thread John Clower
Hey all

  Tonight's show proves to be one filled with der sausage and der polka!
Yes, the Clowers went to a sausage festival this past weekend, and you can
make
your own jokes about it from 6 to 9 Eastern Standard time tonight at
tbrn.net.  In addition to the beer, I picked up a couple of CD's by some of
the featured
artists, including a master yodeler and The Sauerkrauts!  Of course there
will be random bits scattered about, for sausage and polka can only be
entertaining for so long.  You guys don't want to miss this week's edition
of the John Zone.  It promises to be a good one.
 Satisfaction almost garanteed!
