Episode 138 - Bob

Recording MMVH Live with Bob and Anthony

I'm not sure how much we're going to go into this (I am typing this an hour or so before we go shopping) but many of you know that we lost a dear friend two days ago, Bob Goyetche.  Bob was one of my co hosts on Best Episode Ever and the Marshall McLuhan Variety Hour, and he was really one of the original Canadian podcasters.  More importantly though he was our friend, and you have likely heard us speak of him before.  

Bob had a great impact on our lives, even though we both never spent that much time in the same room with him. 

Then we ran into Sgt. Wilson's Army Show.

Finally we had what I think was a pretty interesting discussion of art and manga/anime.

Episode 137 - Moccasins and Fudge

Of on another mundane adventure of mundaneness.  

Jon came along today as he didn't feel like hanging out with his friends today.  It was nice having him along for a change, as he hasn't come shopping since the summer.

It's still crazy warm, very odd.  I'm not mowing the lawn, no matter what.

I'm a boring boring boring jerk.

Isabelle is nominating one of her profs for a prestigious art award, which I really hope she gets because she deserves it.

Episode 136 - Ismism

It's getting close to Halloween, though, this is not a scary episode.  Look, maybe it is, I'm writing this before we go out.

I dunno, maybe we talked about emails or something.

OK, we did get a pumpkin, and candy of course, who knows how many kids will come over, I honestly don't know, it varies so much year to year.  We have enough candy for 90, which ought to be enough.

We wondered whatever happened to UNICEF boxes at Halloween in Canada, it turns out that collecting for UNICEF at Halloween in the US is still a thing, but now in Canada it isn't.  We both have fond memories of collecting money for kids from afar.

We then got into what may be our oddest discussion ever.  We listed every 'ism' you could think of (though I think we missed 'fascism' oddly).
