Episode 77 : Occupy * FingerBlast

Good day, my fine, fine friends. On today’s show Jon shares his 4-point plan to winning the PodCast Awards general category. Then the crew calls up friend of the show (and editor of Carve Magazine) Matthew Limpede who shares his experience at Occupy Dallas.

This week’s Hot Topics include : a study shows that oral sex may be the leading cause of throat cancer,  MD’s get cranky on whether Phd’s deserve the title, “Doctor,” a burglar’s tip to police leads to a child porn bust, an Italian man gouges out his own eyes at mass, a breast implant saves lives, and an Ex-Model who ate her husband says that she “is not a monster.”

*Special note : This recording (and all recordings) are recorded on Monday. This week City Hall announced a deadline for the Occupy Dallas demonstrators to abandon their demonstration or face possible incarceration. They were also informed that they could be raided by police who will be searching for drugs. Last night the Occupy Boston demonstrators were raided by police. We hope our friends at the Occupy Dallas movement are safe and that what happened in Boston does not happen in our city.

This week’s featured song is “Fire” by Yael Meyer. Her album, Everything will be Alright, will be released November 15th.
