04.26.08 SG #278 The Goliath Bird Eating Spider

Saturday, April 26th, 2008

Download the show here sucka:


Soccergirl, Incorporated’s Goliath Bird-Eating Spider.

Apparently Podshow has changed its name from “Podshow” to “Mevio,” because podcasting just sounds free. I’m hoping this doesn’t cause any problems but if you see problems please let me know so that I can tell Podshow… I mean… Mevio… It’s me video! I went for a glorious walk at Clermont. Ryan is in kickass shape from all the interval cardio. Eventually the paradigm will shift and evolution will be accepted by everyone… it’s like a square wheel. Move slow, move slow, move slow and then BAM! Pivot over the corner. Working at the bar is both great and hard… I’m trying to make myself a member of a new clan. I’m trying to find my niche. I think I’m the weisenheimer. Stuff from Ryan and Jordi in the PO Box. Spiders are basically monsters and imagine if they were this big! Certain spiders eat birds like the Goliath Bird Eating Spider (and if that’s not a monster, monsters are worse than I thought). I think I was convinced by Ben Stein and his movie Expelled which contends that Darwin’s theory contributed to the Nazi Holocaust, communism, atheism and Planned Parenthood. Yeah, I was totally convinced.

SOCCERGIRL’S LIVE BALTICON PERFORMANCE INFORMATION COMING SOON. In the meantime, learn about Balticon in general, here.

Find out how you can help ameliorate the Soccergirl, Inc. book situation by harassing Amazon.com here. If you copy me with your letter I will celebrate it in the show, and in my pussy, amen.

A Sally Lightfoot Crab from the Galapagos

Lead kills. Working at the bar. Did you guys hear about the pot smokers in Germany who had pot laced with lead? I bet they got totally stoned! Soccergirl (that’s me!) in an article on Wired.com talking about taxes and podcasting. I happened to mention my deduction of the cost of condoms (because they were a legitimate business purchase for The Future Condom Challenge [in episode #135]) and people are all up in arms about it. “Way to promote your podcast by getting audited!” they say. I’m going to the Galapagos and Soccergirl, Incorporated is going with me! Yippee! Also on the trip will be the devastatingly handsome George Hrab, Phil Plait and James Randi, himself! UK John with “Barnter”. JC Hutchins’ open video project for Operation Grid Failure. My buddy Chuck found me out! Shit. Ryan is a master of science (or he will be). A new song entitled, “Dick Lover: An Ode to Richard Dawkins”

Darwin’s rottweiler
Evolutionary biologist to the stars
A fellow of the Royal Society
The Royal Society of my heart

Causing so many erections
almost as many as Danny Glover
It’s nothing but a natural selection
Cause I’m a dick lover

04.10.08 SG #275 Trode Salve

Thursday, April 10th, 2008

Download the show here sucka:

I was just packin’ up some merch. How ’bout them 49ers. This is my nutshell. If you get the newsletter then you already know about the amazon.com situation. If you don’t get the newsletter, you can sign up here. Here’s the story:

As you probably know, after nearly a year of a fingers-to-the-bone style writing frenzy, in February I finally finished Notes From My Underpants and have been excitedly hopping through the post production process since then. Initially, we were talking about a release date in June and I was setting the gears in motion for a balls out marketing blitz and reading tour, a new website, a new me. Then I received word we’d probably have to delay until July and I was a little disappointed, but still okay. After a year of bleeding all over My Underpants (and not in a period way) a month seemed a pittance. More time with the balls out (marketing and otherwise). More time for gathering my loving army (and by that I mean you) for an opening day buy-out to rival that of the master (and by that I mean Scott Sigler). No prob, self. Things are good…

That was when Amazon.com dropped a stinker right in my bowl.

Turns out Amazon and Book Surge are fucking with Lightning Source, the publisher/printer for Podshow Press (and other publisher/printers, worldwide).

Check it out:

(From Writersweekly.com)

“Amazon.com purchased BookSurge, a small POD publisher/printer back in 2005. Amazon also lists and sells titles for the largest POD printer, Lightning Source, which is owned by Ingram (the large book distributor). According to their website, Lightning Source serves more than 4,300 publisher clients and has more than 400,000 titles in their system.

You’d think Amazon’s purchase of BookSurge might have made things a bit uncomfortable between the two companies. However, they continued to work together, getting books on demand to Amazon.com’s loyal customers. Things appeared to be cruising along just fine, but perhaps not anymore.

Reports have been trickling in from the POD underground that Amazon/BookSurge representatives have been approaching some Lightning Source customers, first by email introduction and then by phone (nobody at BookSurge seems to want to put anything in writing). When Lightning Source customers speak with the BookSurge representative, the reports say, they are basically told they can either have BookSurge start printing their books or the ‘buy’ button on their Amazon.com book pages will be ‘turned off.’”

Here is a link to the whole article.

So where does this leave Notes From My Underpants? That’s a damn good question. Podshow is still committed to publishing it but this Amazon development might delay things for weeks. Weeks, I say!

Amidst gossamer dreams of the day when I would have a collection of pages between two hearty covers to bequeath upon my loving army (you!), I clung to the summer release with my bone fingers. And now, with spring rolling in and summer on its heels, as I juice myself for show ideas and bartend into the wee hours, I feel a rimy anger a’swirlin’ in my soccerheart.

Exactly who do you think you are, Amazon.com!? You think you can fuck with Soccergirl and her loving army? Think again, dick lickers!

Here’s what YOU can do to help ME get this book to YOU before the end of time. Write a pissed off note to the slovenly puke tunes over at amazon.com and if you copy it to me at soccergirlincorporated@gmail.com I will celebrate it and you on the show (and in my pussy), amen.

Here is a crude mock up of what the world looks like through me migraine.

I had a really fucked up thing happen last night. If this is the first show you’ve ever listened to, hey new listener. How’d you get so hot? A quick number from The Good Doctor called “Bawdies,” for the new listeners. The story of my first night at the bar. I recorded myself having me migraine and I sound fucked up. Happy birthday to my sister, Eliza! A quick visit from my mom with news about me as a young girl. I was destined to be a crazy podcaster whose never satisfied. I’m drunk and army guys!
