Firstly, the amazing Kristin has painted the above picture for “The Tant Girl.” In it, the protagonist Soan is in the tent of a creepy apothecary enjoying his jars of even creepier fetuses. I already know what you’re going to say “BC! You made a seventeen year old girl paint you a picture of a fifteen year old girl looking a fetus in a jar! How… how could you!”

And yes, this should be some kind of sex crime.  However, I would put forth that she really wanted to do this for me, so uh…. well that joke went south. I apologize for that. In either case, the picture is excellent.

Speaking of apologies, how about that podcast yesterday? That was well… uh… uh…. oh shit… uh… have to find something to say…. ummm… BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE! BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE! BOOM GOES THE MOTHERFUCKING DYNAMITE!”

Needless umm to say ummm I could have ummm yeah I’m uh…. ummm sorry about that. I will ummm endeavor… *whisper: did I say that right?*… to do better in the future.

I knew it was going to suck going in and there’s nothing for it but to roll up my sleeves and make it better. I put in about the most awkward format I could to stop anyone from listening to it unless they REALLY wanted to seek it out. I’m going to be doing the next ten or twenty of them strictly on youtube, and then when I get it to the point that it doesn’t suck I’ll start setting up something better.

In the interests of that awkward experience NOT putting you off all podcasts, please refer to my sidebar for links to podcasts that ARE good. Like I said, I’ll be doing more and more until they presumably become shitless/okay podcasts. I’m also probably going to get a cohost or something along the way but right now it would just be a waste of time.

What else do we need to talk about? Let’ see…

I heard that my old site DDHM was getting mothballed sometime this month. I’m rather indifferent to this, but I just thought I would let everyone know. It was a long time ago and I’ve moved on. I don’t foresee this affecting me in any particular way.

On a more salient and important note, I thought I would point out that ShrinkTalk and Philalawyer are continuing on in their own platforms. Someone e-mailed me to ask (I don’t know why?) and those were the ones I found out about in the fifteen or so minutes I spent researching.

So for those cross-over readers we have who have not heard this, please know that your favorite writers are carrying the torch of the written word forward… but not in the book burning sense because… ummm… uh…. stupid joke about book burning?

Ever Awkward,

BC Woods
