The countdown is on to the big Sidepodradio event tomorrow and I don't know about you but it is all go at Sidepodcast Towers, scurrying around trying to get things completed in time. Meanwhile, here are some of the things we're talking about:
- Bassano has set up a wiki page for next year's Spa Grand Prix meetup. We had the conversation yesterday that people vary in their ability to plan that far ahead - however, if it is your thing to get organised as early as possible, then this page is for you. Let us know if you're intending on joining us at Spa, and your preferred options in terms of travel and accommodation.
- The latest Aside with Joe show was posted yesterday, in the early hours of the morning. A great catchup of all things in the paddock, with refreshingly little talk about Renault and all that nonsense. Also, if you haven't signed up for GP+, it's not too late, and it's a bargain.
- Finally, in F1 news, Nick Heidfeld participated in a karting event in Switzerland getting to know some of the members of his fan club. How cool is that? Karting is good, and getting to meet your fan club idol is also very good. Perhaps Quick Nick has another career waiting for him if he can't find a seat other than BMW?
That's all for today, let us know what you're doing with your Saturday, whilst we are putting the finishing touches to the Sidepodradio extravaganza. I'll see you in the comments.
This jazz on Jools reminds me of the older Sim City games...
Let me be the first to talk like a pirate:
"I was just trying to save the team. It's my duty. That's the reason I've finished."
Aharrrr me maties and a jolly welcominen to the 19th. Arrr.
Arrr, go Timo, arrr.
This pirate thing really kills your throat.
Gahhrrr! It be talk like a Pirate Day Me hartyes!
Yo ho ho
Oops, it went onto the wrong thread. nevertheless, hello tomorrow!
Oh and arrgh of course, parrots and all that stuff.
That's why they drank so much rum
Real pirates drink grog!
In other news, I'm in this month's F1 Racing (under my real name)!
:D
Go alia! :D
New thread wonderfulness
Cool beans!
Arrghhh... I 'ave me a plan shipmates, we'll jump them scurvy landlubbers and steal the treasure... all we be needing is a diversion at Turn 17. Thar be no yardarm thar to save 'em.
From yesterday's thread:
Richard Cheese - Ice Ice Baby
Do you reckon Franck would come Karting in January?
Wait, that's not your real name?
Everyone needs a pirate name! get ye's ere'
Congrats!
For Christine, anything!
Shark Tooth Barney?
Richard Cheese - Creep
Better than the original.
Pat (with surname): Yellow Tad Hawkins
Patrick: Cap'n Bart Graybeard
hmm
Pirate Jack The Fashionably Late?
aaaRG! haha
For anyone who likes or dislikes Jools Holland...

Not difficult
Adam & Joe ROCK!
Fruitless Jimbo Dregg with my real name.
Pirate Harvey the Engorged with SB.
Do they podcast their Radio 6 Music show?
Well done you
Believe so.
I doubt he has anything else to do. I wonder if he knows Badoer. He could come too
Their Xfm ones were fab
Shall seek out
Luca takes the go out of gokart
Its good, i cant stand the man!!!
If anyone is after something to do ;) http://armorgames.com/play/3999/cargo-bridge
They do... You should check it!
What about Sato. Perfect opportunity for he and Mr C to finally seperate their differences then?
Next time you cook something follow the instructions with his voice/style.
"Preheat the oven to gas mark 5 and place on to a baking tray."
Love the name :) arrRG
and the "oer" out of Badoer
Quite clever I thought.
Why would you show me that before im going to bed!? I need sleep, but its just too much fun
Adam & Joe iTunes link
Go alia! :D {Comment #11}
Thank you, Lukeh, Bassano, Pat and Steven!
Best non-f1 podcast there is
I need sleep to but it is fun especially when the little guys fall :)
Do you reckon Franck would come Karting in January? {Comment #16}
The more the merrier!
So true :)
Don't show Mr or Mrs C they have things to do ;)
What do folk reckon on Wall*E instead of Cars for the next SidepodFilmclub spot?
*cough* you sure? :P
i haven't seen seen either, and wouldn't mind watching them so i'm not bothered :)
What about a classic old film, or this that asking too much?
Wait, that’s not your real name? {Comment #17}
No, "Alianora La Canta" is a psuedonym. Dad taught me that I shouldn't use my real name on the internet as a young teenager due to the possibilities of internet crime ranging from cyberbullying (I got bullied a lot at school and it seemed pointless to allow it to spread online) to more serious stuff. A psuedonym that sounded plausible without being a name used by anyone else seemed the best solution because that would avoid dodgy people enquiring after my real name before it was appropriate for me to give it to them (because they'd assume I simply had an exotic real name) while preserving the desired anonymity.
By the time I was old enough to consider ignoring the rule, I'd already gained a reputation under the psuedonym. Using my real name at that point simply didn't make sense, except when necessary (for example, when interacting with an off-line world that expects real names to be used).
Wall*E: probably the best animated film ever
Cars: meh!
Sure!
*bigger cough*
;) only kidding
Blast!
I even forgot to mention mine!
Alex!
Of all people...
:D hehe
Sleep for me.
Night all
Its Ok, its not in the same leuge as Nemo though
What is the "Real Name" concept you speak of?
Hence my name is Startledbunny!
Blasphemer!
Goodnight Jon
Night Jon
It's the trouble of trying to complete all of the Giggles Radio sessions so late it's not true!
You mean your name ISNT Bassano?
Can i call you Bassano anyway? or Mr Clapper :D
Good. Night. Jon
Either is good :)
or even Mr Bassano
night
What do you think he is, a knight?
Yawn!
What are you lot like?
No point.
What's happening with Twitter profile pics
Has Keith taken them?
night all :)
I could never think of a good name for a pseudonym, else I'd have one too..
No that would be Sir Bassano Clapper of the Sidepodrelm
See ya Lou
probably :D
Bye Lou
night if you are also going
:D :D :D
I'm not allowed to reveal my pseudonym as Mr Brawn would fire me
...oooooooops
I really like Hunch as well
#Sleeper
Or Sir Bassano Clapper Of The Drill Of Orange.
Night sleepers, mind the bed bugs dont bite!
hands up who has either an iphone or an android phone?
um yessssss!
Now you see - depending on where you look you'll find me under various pseudonyms, and even my own name as well.... when I was 'first' online it was for academic purposes, and I needed to use my own name for honesty sake...
You are trouble
oopps.. i didn't mean the all... i'm staying around... :( although my headache is making me feel a little out of it...
*waits to be asked who wants one of either*
iPhone
[hand raised]
What is the “Real Name” concept you speak of? {Comment #66}
The one that appears on my birth certificate, passport and other official documentation and with which I conduct my off-line life.
night nick
What's your baking name? ;)
something happened... that umm... is homepage related... honest.
not a native app, just a custom skin: http://mobile.sidepodcast.com/
clearly doesn't do much, but it's more exciting than saying hello.
That, I like
rofl....
personally I'd rather have an ipod touch. But then I live somewhere with a lot of free wifi points.
What is this off-line of which you speak ;)
Hence my name is Startledbunny! {Comment #67}
It's a good nickname :)
Anyway, mine must be pretty bad, my Dad found it out without me telling him. pseudonym fail
:D
Which one? Hmmm there's one under this one, and another under my own...
Oh mweee
Agreed
And Swallow
I really hate how you can't use iphone apps on anything else.... Some people can't afford an iphone, what if they want to play with pointless applications??
I'm hoping for a freebie! Will gladly take either.
Night startledbunny
What’s happening with Twitter profile pics
Has Keith taken them? {Comment #79}
I don't think so, but mine needed changing anyway, seeing as Max looks like he's gone in the next few weeks...
Nah, ya lost me
What about Peggy? Nancy?
OK. Cooking instructions are recorded, but need some editing. I will get onto this in the morning, or failing that, Sunday morning (eek).
neat :)
I like most of that album, its just the 2nd one was the first album I ever properly got into. I was young enough to not understand the lyrics to Swallow!
And most of the things cooked have gone.....
They are possibly the yummiest things ever, btw...
You can, an iPod Touch :)
Ok i'm actually going now, but just before i go i want you all to read this blog post..
http://www.number66.net/the-donington-park-farce/
It's by a "young" driver who's always struggled to get the budget for a good season of decent racing, annnnnyway....thats not the point, read the post, its about how Donningtons had to cancel 2 meetings over the last year (maybe more, but definitely 2) due to adverse whether conditions meaning the tracks flooded.....
Which....in a round about way, points you towards asking....
"Theres a GP in a year...they're not going to be ready are they?"
Start now. Ours took hours. And over 5 days. There was a big time difference between me & Nikki though. Quite enjoyed it though.
mmm. wanted a mobile homepage to go with the new main homepage and x2 native apps is just a level of complexity above what we have time for. so this should fill the gap.
I think 2 were cancelled for flooding and many more were cancelled/postponed due to the tunnel construction being messed up. I think the flooding is actually related to that.
Heard this week
Apple App Store has over 75,000
Zune has 9
:lol: :lol: :lol:
looks awesome on my ipod touch :)
Which can only make you think, as it does me, how on earth does Christine do it?
Swish!
£150 for an itouch. it's worth saving for.
i am actualy going to go and sleep this headache off now... yipee Coldplay tomorrow! :D night all x
to get the amount of storage i'd want, (my Zen's 30gb...) it's considerably more than that
Now you see – depending on where you look you’ll find me under various pseudonyms, and even my own name as well…. {Comment #94}
I have to admit I have a few psuedonyms other than this one lying around. Some fell into disuse while a couple are still there for purposes that have nothing to do with F1.
There is one site where I signed up under my real name because my brother told me that was what I was supposed to do to allow people to find me, but strangely enough most of the people who found me there knew me by my psuedonym...
Nah, he'll be fine. He's an old hand at this stuff..
I, however, would still prefer to use a razor blade and little tiny rolls of special sticky tape. But I'm a luddite that way.
(and also because sticking all the rejected bits together makes for really interesting effects and outtakes pmsl)
I see
I remember their demos before the album was released
Guess that's why I love it
Saw them first on "The Beat", Gary Crowley's indie tv show
just use it to play games. it's not a great music player anyhow.
night!!
night lou.
I'm trying to persuade my wife that she needs one. A losing battle though :(
Can't. Need money for Spa.
iPod Touch.
Don't iPhone and Andoid phones work fine with non-mobile pages?
And calling it by it's proper name ;)
Hmmm - if that is where I think it is, I've got a pretend name there, But only because it wouldn't let me use this one :-(
Id say wait for one with a camera, apple are just messing around at the moment to milk more cash
I know, total and utter respect.
Really, really need it done asap. Sunday is too late.
yup. but they don't play flash, so no audio or video. the mobile mini-app will play both...
...
...
...and play live show (shhhhhh)
Nice one!
If you hadn't guessed, I'm listening to both albums now.. a few months is too long to leave them..
Night Lou
There is one with one on now... a motion one as well.
Although I have a camera here already that does that so.......
Good point
shoot, don't highlight it. i just snuck it in there :)
I'm heading off too I think, g'night all!
£229
There's always the refurb store, £179.00
Night..
see ya.
See ya dude
Sorry, I'm with Andy on this one
What is this off-line of which you speak {Comment #105}
The part of the universe that doesn't have a computerised item involved in its interface.
goodnight lukeh
I'm still a bit skeptical. The original iPod touch I didn't like, I don't think I ever managed to shift my impression of that.
It will arrive broadcast ready though. But yes, before sunday. He can always do it in his lunch hour if he doesn't do it in the morning.
Andy doing shopping list to send to you now :-) Its nice and short. Everything on it could be found in the corner shop if you have one :-)
Mate of mine found one on eBay for £100, had to pay some import tax on it but he can use it on any network. That method is more tempting tbh.
I don't think so
More likely a production or reliabilty issue, if rumours are to be believed
[Sorry Andy]
first version mind you, so presumably considerably less storage
Lovely, thank you :)
madness.
i (hearts) sidepodradio. y'all are crazy ♥
That sounds like a badly thought out excuse, if you can fit one on an ipod nano, and an iphone why not an itouch? The same reason the first iphone didnt have 3g, so you can get people to upgrade later...
What didn't you like about it
Try one with WiFi & some Apps loaded if you get the chance
Ah. OK. Shopping list has been emailed.
No networks for the Touch
You mean an unlocked iPhone?
errr, probably
Did you hear the Steve Jobs excuse that was talked about on TWiT?
Initially they were pathetically small storage wise. Plus something about them just seems to be wrong. It's not a proper iPod!! You're talking to someone who still uses their original 2nd generation iPod though so.....
YOu mean there are rumours?
[Searches for my Sleeper albums]
[Figure they were on the previous, dropped, external]
Damn CDs and their unfindability
Here I was thinking I was pushing the deadline to the max.
So I've heard :)
http://www.last.fm/music/Sleeper
:)
Could also be on Spotify?
He was lying
very likely. i can't link to that though, or can i?
Yeah, but I want them on my pod now
I've not found a way!
ipod has lastfm app with streaming capabilty
there's a lat.fm app.
Haven't tried that yet
Ad supported isn't it?
I'm sick of advertising, I don't wasnt anymore STUFF!
And if I do, I know where to get it
I am not a pirate me hearties, so I can't send you the 3 albums I have on my iTunes.
My car doesn't have WiFi
I do have the albums, I just have to dig them out tomorrow
They are for sale on iTunes no?
http://www.last.fm/music/Sleeper/Vegas
I already own them
I'm not Elton John, one copy is enough
It has ads, they are quite short and every maybe 4th or 5th song. They aren't too annoying, only if you are listening to chilled out stuff really.
It does have an auto-skipping method which is quite annoying, occasionally you have to go back to the start until it 'takes' - but what's funny is it does it to the ads too :-)
i bet you can find them on itunes faster,
Is the 3rd one worth seeking out?
Agreed
But not cheaper
Not really. *shrugs shoulders*
Fair enough :-)
I was hoping it would have grown on me now I'm 10 years older.
I was just nosing around last.fm and got an ad for Johnny Foreigner and Tellison on tour next month.. I may have to go..
I listened to the albums a while back in order, and I can't pick out a single song from the whole 3rd album, where The It Girl, I can remember a few.
She's a Good Girl is the one I remember, wasn't a fan of it.
I like "Romeo Me"
Found 2, think one's in the car [or was]
How could I have forgotton that I bought wine
Distracted by Ms Wener, again
I'd say that, just listening briefly to it.
"You Got Me" is one I liked, along with "Firecracker".
Just going through The It Girl. Liked "Good Luck Mr Gorsky", had forgotten it though.
actual conversation:
christine: "there's a girl singing?"
me: "yes. louise wener."
christine: "she's called louise?"
umm, because louise is the unusual part of that name...
Easily done :-)
She prounounces it Wenner, can't say I blame her :)
i remember them on tfi. chris evans now about to do the breakfast show and holly is on the radio every other friday morning. i wonder if we're not trapped in some kind of 90's timewarp.
Trying to look in my Library for similar artists. Elastica at a push, but that's it for now.
Grrrr Internet Browsers Grrrr
And on that note, good night.
At least we're over the 80's finally
What about that Mrs Thatch eh, what a... :)
Night arrRG
Echobelly
Goodnight arrRG
arrrg... h ;)
Salad
You genius. If I can just remember that in 9 hours time.
Ahh, did love TFI.
They are taking over from the older people, as it should be. Natural progression. R2 needs to move with the tastes of their target age group.
Night

Ohh yes Echobelly. Nice one
ooh, shout
we're nowhere over the 80s. you've heard La Roux?
i'm all for it. i'm just stunned that a generation managed to produce to one decent d.j.
that's it? one man with longevity?
and the new Editors stuff is apparently very synth-based.
and aqua.
Belly [I heart]
daisy chainsaw
the breeders
Throwing Muses
lush [superb]
apparently isn't the word :)
Shh, I'm trying to convince everyone ;)
Also, The Long Blondes are worth checking out
[not 80's themed]
Isn't the lead singer responsible for James Blunt's first album?
How could I forget Shirley Manson!
Garbage were excellent
Well, first two albums anyway
Good ol' Butch Vig, top producer
To be fair there were complaints at the time! Zoe Ball? Nah, thanks.
I've heard one track on the radio. er, interesting! actually I quite like it, just not for THEM. Editors should always be masters of guitar..
Kate Jackson?
Really, can't see it
Hang on...
Version 2.0, awesome. I think I'm Paranoid
awesome, awesome, awesome stuff. agreed.
Yup, very good.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kate_Jackson_(singer)
Skunk Anansie
chooooon!
Made a fatal mistake. I'm thinking of 4 non blondes. eugh.
Many a mosh to their gigs
Skin was from my home town, Brixton
Eek!
Check out Long Blondes, "Someone To Drive You Home" LP
You want look out for Heads We Dance. Leeds band. They're a bit synthy. But a lot of songs are Sci-fi related subjects.
Always meant to investigate Kenickie. Never did. Wasn't a fan of Laverne as a presenter until Glastobury this year, she and Radcliffe were hilarious on telly!
Dodgy... I quite liked them at the time...
Bluetones.. still quite like them a bit..
Menswear.. never really investigated
Skin did an awesome track on Maxim [of Prodigy] 's album
Carmen Queasy
she's ace, been doing it for years. was also in... mint royale...?
Have 3 of their albums. Went off them a bit though. Free Sweet Peace was a good album.
At school I was in the lower 6th when they put on a gig where the 6th form president sang lead - and she did it perfectly
shall check it out.
love it lots
has the guy gone solo recently? think i heard new stuff from him.
Were brill
Dodgy... I quite liked them at the time... Not bad
Bluetones.. still quite like them a bit.. Loved
Menswear.. never really investigatedAwful
That's the one I've got. Good songs on there.
Money-making is a wonderful thing.
Maxim: Hells Kitchen
Money making, money making
Charity & Weak
Rock on!
Little Boots, before she went her own way, was in a band called Dead Disco, and there's one song they did, "She's Out" which I'm a big fan of.
I think they call it butterfingers
Belly & Tanya Donelly?
I meant "You're Out".
Will look for
Sophie Ellis Bextor was once good
Her previous guise as singer in Theaudience
Video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBv5FHQDnNg
loved them.
One of my favourite gigs at the 100 Club on Oxford St
That and Silversun, same place
Ash: Girl From Mars. My 1st crowd surf!
Golden Skin?
I think I spent a lot of the '90s filling in some of the music I missed in the '80s.
You got the album 1977? with the questionable hidden material?
At this point I'm envious of people who live/d near cities!
we've discussed the other irish band of the time here before and now i've forgotten them... *thinks real hard*
Just browsing through my collection, and a stumbled upon DJ Shadow - Endtroducing. Truly Awesome Album. Midnight In A Perfect World is one of my Top 10 tracks ever.
Hmm. Punishable by death IMHO
Yep, took me ages to find it too
For anyone reading back through later, this is a great place to plug the Sidepodcast group on Last.fm:
http://www.last.fm/group/sidepodcast
And the Tie Fighter noise intro :D
Some of us just spent a lot of time on trains at silly hours of the day :-D
Ahem, Oh yes, the "Tie Fighter" intro. :D
Bit 80's for me
I was doing Adam & The Ants, Thomson Twins and A-ha [first time round] during the real 80s
A-Ha, Guilty Pleasure
Will listen when Sleeper finishes :-)
Heheh :-)
i likes the new one.
Yay for 80s music.
The album? That's good.
I never liked A-HA more Depeche Mode myself
Theaudience
theaudience - If You Can't Do It When You're Young
theaudience - Pessimist Is Never Disappointed
theaudience - I Got the Wherewithal
Personal Jesus & the "Reach Out" one
And night buses from Camden
Personal J*sus & the "Reach Out" one
All of that. They seem to have kept themselves going quite well over the years
Which was Personal Jesus :D
Sorry for the double post, didn't think it liked me saying the bearded one
Paying for Dave's rehab
Enjoy the Silence, that's what I was thinking of :)
:D don't they all have rehab at some point?
I think maybe my first concert was when my brother took me to see The Cure in 1979. Pretty cool, here in Oz
I have a Visage 7" single of "Night Train"
Classic Track and Classic album (Violator)
Album after (Songs Of Faith and Devotion) was good too.
:D i did like fade to grey
The Cure are Gods amonst men
Glasto '95 and also the Wish tour
Both, more than a little "elevated", shall we say
I literaly have no idea what is being talked about...
I think i understood oxford street and tie fighter, but for all i know a tie fighter might be a person who has sword fights with their tie on an underground train... :P
Exciter i think?
Look and learn young 'un
Hunts now
That was later.
Whipper snapper
After Songs Of Faith & Devotion was Ultra, then a break, then Exciter, which was a good album.
Yeah I just checked - it was too. My CDs are in a bit of a mess
Hmmm - you can't be that young, you're still up and awake
Not disagreeable, not sure I'd buy it though
Educate yourself
Skunk Anansie - Weak
To be honest it could be the current top 50 and i wouldnt have a clue! :D
Me neither, no point it's crap
Carmen Queasy (video)
Skunk Anansie feat. Maxim - Carmen Queasy
oo. My brother is such a fan. His band even had this cool bald girl singer
Snap!
Charts are overrated and always have been.
I've got the power
NME every week, for about 3 years
Then I bought a flat in London :(
That David Guetta & Kelly Rowland track is quite good.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z33tH-JdPDg
I should have sent some of my brother's music to Alex. I didn't think anyone would like that sort of stuff.
These guys are awesome
British India: God is Dead
Australian too, but might be a bit too modern and rock and roll for the oldies ;)
As long as you don't mention Stock, Aitkin & Waterman to Mr C you'll be fine
[more recall]
:D this would have been a good sidepodradio show !
i'm sowwy.
Not again! ;)
found!
thought i'd never remember.
I'm not that old, I still listen to tripleJ
I'm bowling you over this week with my memory skillz, you have NO secrets :)
*shudders, even though Dead or Alive's "You Spin Me Round" was made by them*
ahh, good song
Does Cows With Guns still make the Top 100?
damn you!!
hehehe :P
I adore this
Goosebumps everytime
:D hahahaha. You really have to laugh
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQMbXvn2RNI
And Hilary...
[swoons]
Does youtube have every single video ever on it?!
If we're talking Australian music artists, this is one of my faves:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZI8q-2YhLM
Probably
I was more in the Midnight Oil camp - their live shows were just awesome
For some reason Cows with Guns reminded me of this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAI3jfDN9o8
I only ike Bound For Glory because it was the song on the end montage of the video for the 1990 Australian Touring Car Championship :D
Arrrrrrgggggghhhhhhh
It'll be "push a wheelbarrow to broken hill" soon or "paint me a purple billabong"
Make it stop, I'm sorry, whatever I did. Make it stop!!
Ooo ooo - now them I saw live...
(and here, not Oz as well :-) )
Now you're talking. Diesel & Dust and Blue Sky Mining two of my favourite albums.
Cow Tse Tongue :lol:
They had a really powerful show
I mentioned Johnny Foreigner earlier. Love this track immensely, they deserve to be huge.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-PY53SdyUY&feature=fvst
Break out the real drums.
I'm supposed to be listening to my next podcast, to see if it's ok. Instead I'm listening to loads of stuff and reminiscing.
Woohoo! SPC is awesome! :)
I saw Bad Manners on George St in Sydney in 2002, awesome show
Buster has SO much energy
We know!
I'm loving this :-)
Mr Bunny, I couldn't get your iTunes link to work earlier
btw after 2/3rds it kicks up
Which one? Did I post one?
am frightened to say anything. bassano know too much,
A link to your blog I think
This one's a Oils classic:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2JiTuxO5lE
I met them all at a pub gig once, before they were "stars" 1981 I think
Came with the obvious question: if you are 16, how are you in here watching?
Checking now
add a dot net to my username, you'll get there. even without the www bit as well!
I am your cerebral back-up :)
Yep! I have a feeling it may also have been the last non-antipodian gif they ever did as well. To my embarrassment, at the time I only had the vaguest idea who they were until I read the press pack (redface)
the depth of knowledge on the whole of spc is very impressive :-)
I keep your secrets though
Buds an all that
♥
Cool
Me likey
Record deal?
OK, I now have some audio that I can send over for Christine to play at Mr C. Where do I put it?
Create a drop.io
Then you'll love this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fb9-FNsxqho
Released.
I'm a late bloomer to concerts.
My 1st, was December 06, Heads We Dance/International Trust/Yes Boss. I wasn't drinking alcohol, and was driving, and couldn't relax.
International Trust kept cheering one another after every song.
Yes Boss were a rap duo with a Macbook. Everyone in the audience got on the stage, it was that dead.
I made up for it the year after, went to see Supergrass. Simply brilliant.
btw, last.fm bio says:
"Before forming the band in December 2005, Alexei played in an act called Panda Love Unit. "
:-D
Answer: It's Us'tralya
Mr and Mrc C?
Anyone remember Curve?
I [heart] Toni Halliday
go there, it's really easy to make one
http://drop.io/startledbunny
Bump...
yup. secret drop and mail christine the url, if that's ok?
Oh no. Far too much swearing in front of other people!
Or you can just mail me the file if that's easier.
I'm late too - same month, Dec '06, little place in Weymouth where I saw Sam Isaac, Luke Leighfield and Encyclopedia. Good gig.
SInce then I've seen REM (twice), Oasis and Blur. Last month I went to a gig with about 10-15 people, most of which were the bands themselves.
Not that I go to many gigs.
ooo. The dark side
Sony MiniDisc advert was their claim to fame
CURVE - CHINESE BURN
But did so much better earlier when they were indie not electrophonic

I'm pretty sure The Cure were my first gig. Followed by Midnight Oil, Eurythmics, INXS
It's 40MB, so I will create a drop and email the link.

Aged 14 or so
Andy, don't you have MobileMe?
I do.
I went to see "The Music" for free at Hudds Uni.
But I want to see Super Furry Animals.
Misfit I was a kid, OK!!!
;-)
I got 'The People' on a compilation CD which I quite liked, always thought I should pay more attention to them than I did.
Can you not send a link to an individual file link more easily to Christine from there
Limits?
Chicks loved 'em though so, I was ok
I prefer the Queen one.
:-)
You've obviously never seen Toni Halliday on stage in a wedding dress and Monkey Boots, then
I may need a minute ;)
Joe has an interesting story. Seems Piquet senior had a word with Charlie Whiting before the end of last season to tell him that his boy had crashed deliberately and Whiting told Max.

Oooooo. NOW I remember.
And then
Ordinary Day
I'll stop now :)
I have to mention Sam Isaac again just because I always loved this video:

You're forgetting this one as well.

Best kept secret till the day
OK, audio is dropped to a secret location and Christine has been emailed.
Yes!!!
Hook covered by De La Soul
Red Fox to Grey Squirrel. The weather is fine in moscow. I repeat, the weather is fine in moscow.
:D
:D
the shame of it!
Currently, I have seven windows linked from Desktop Doohickey [doesn't open browser]
And 6 Safari tabs. Full of music stuff from this convo
I [heart] Snow Leopard & Expose
Don't knock De La Soul
Chaka did a wicked choon with 'em
So do I, but I don't like Garageband for editing audio. Audacity on the other hand is brilliant.
I never knew De La Soul's was a cover
True
(the weather is fine here too, by the way)
hehehehe
Eye Know, I shouldn't
[groans] :D
Eye must go now. Bedtime is calling, seeing as I have been scheduled for a haircut.
See you tomorrow or SidepodSunday :D
see ya
I do mine myself, Mac 3 is great
Night Mr Bunny, are you coming to Spa?
Night..
*Mach 3
I'm quite impressed that we're approaching 450 comments after only 2hr 40min. :-)
Love it when music stuff comes up here.
Not sure yet, but I certainly want to. How long have I got to work some magic before the deadline?
MR C!!!!
I'm blaming you. I've just spilt Chilean Shiraz on my keyboard
If I can't do "?" tomorrow, you're in trouble!
Such a bad influence ;)
So Pat, you coming next Thurs or what? :D
hahah
Friday Nights seem to be music night, and I'm loving it.
Loads of time, surely
A month or two I guess
Don't know how long the tickets will be available
It is? I must have been somewhere last week.
erm :-)
I was on earlies
The week before it was all Grandmaster Flash & Betty Boo!
ahh. may have been when i was at the cinema
You really don't have any excuse do you
And it's the big smoke, so we can keep you up till the trains restart
What is the plan? I have to say it is quite tempting..
District 9?
I NEED to see that
Meet, drink, talk, drink, eat - possibly, drink some more
You know, the usual
Yeah - you do. I'm saying a word, good or bad, 'cos you have to see it unprepared.
NOT saying
Plus, it's Arthur's Day
I'm dragging them into Covent Garden or such for celebrations
Not sure if they know that yet ;)
:D :D :D
As long as there is food and drink I'm happy. Can't do drink on an empty stomach. Might also need somewhere to crash..
Gotcha
Can prob arrange that
"Eatin' is cheatin'" is for fools
I can probably stay up, just, and sleep on train. I'm more concerned about still being drunk at the this end of it seeing as I need to drive the last 10 miles. there is the bus i suppose
Luckily, it was just a big splash
A contingency plan is forming
Bringing it down
Skin - Faithfulness
Good stuff. I should get that album.
Mr C: Thursday?
You know you want to...
Skin - Trashed
This is the Skin album, not Maxim's
I'm booked, but can't confirm I can come just yet.
Okay. Let me know what you're thinking. I am off to bed or I'll be useless at golf :-)
Cool, DM on Twitter or email me at Gmail
Till tomorrow then
Night Pat.
I need to do some plumbing. Look out!
Everyone: Umbrellas, ready!
I guess the only complication is Singapore FP, depends how much they want to see it or are willing to iPlayer when get home..
Careful, some of us are sleeping!
It is in the bathroom, so safer than normal
It's FP1, we'll more than make up for that!
Even if I were home I doubt I'd watch it..
really going now, see ya tomorrow evening
Quali & Race
FP's are a bonus
Drinking generally wins hands down [or it's after effects]
Night Pat
skunk anansie - infidelity
This is why I know I would never make this at noon
*knew
aaah, you stay up?
go away for 30mins, miss a hundred comments :(
Yeah, cos my Shiraz breath wouldn't put him off
Plus, I'd be gasping for a drink after an 1hr on Public Transport by that time :)
[sorry Amy]
?
It's Arthur's Day?
It's only my strength of mind and sheer pigheadedness that stops me becoming an alkiholic sometimes
I need to find a girlfriend to keep me occupied
[not in THAT way]
:D
Now, where is that pipe bender........
i can't sadly. a million things to do on the site.
[is quite aware he is talking to himself but finds it therapeutic]
I also need to buy a suit and fear I will purchase one there whilst 'a bit merry'
Computer programs and dis-embodied hands can't travel
Grrrrrrrrrrrr! Productivity. Grrrrrrrrrrr!
[idea!]
But it's website research, what about Sho' Selecta!
He can manifest into a Panda
I've seen it
Panda pub? Do they let them in?
Which is why Mr C can't remember anything His mind is full of SPC's lists
I have proof
London doesn't discriminate those who can ask and pay for their own drinks
And responsible service of alcohol doesn't stretch to endangered mammals
hehehe. good point. we was just discussing that... sorta. we think you should write more guest posts because we liked the iphone post.
:D
I can do that, I need direction
[my life story]
Christine's UP!!! ?
Let's discuss it, over a pint
I have a joke for GoForOdd.com , we can kill two birds
If you need somewhere to park and put your head down for the night, I can provide
she is. one sec. i'll get her to comment. we is discussing important SPC future stuff.
... at 3am
Best time
and listening to bruce.
Hi. The future of Sidepodcast is in our hands. Our wine-filled, music-fuelled hands.
Distractions? But i have a hammer in my hand!
MPC I likies
Which is why yourslef & Mr C need to come out next Thursday
Friday is but a day in the leave book
or MFC or whatever
Ahh, not an option, I'm afraid. We will soon though.
fp1 singapore?
In all honesty, the SPC crew will likely stick together wherever
I just hope you guys contine to contribute to something, somewhere cos
I [hearts] you both
That too
I'll be hungover
#Arthur's Day
Both?
Mr C!!!
I am simply the chauffeur of course.
How can I tell myspace to email me my password if I can't remember my username??
Frickin' Web 2.0 eejits
it's all good, nothing bad. for example, what shows to keep next year, what to improve and what to drop.
who's arthur? arthur guinness?
IMHO
F1 Minute is great but having a life is better
Debrief is essential and very much loved by the masses
Digest, preaching to the converted - great for the archives but so are the comments
More Blasphemy!
250 years of, Sir!
mini-series?
I love F1 Big Picture much more
Awesome!
Oh Mr C - a quick thought. Is there anyway to tell Joe my GP+ subscripton was directed from SPC? Be nice for him to know where the fans are coming from and that the Aside is appreciated
For you guys I mean
I wondered that
You SO need to set that up
[In the meantime, email him Paul, I think he knows where the love is but always good to prove it]
Christine has a time-travel thingy and actually uses 36 hours each day
F1M is by far the easiest show to do. On a good day it takes 15 mins start to finish.
I'm hopeless. I guess he has an email address on his site?
I want one of those but I'd be 54 by now!
Hence the volume ;)
Hmm. I don't know what the problem is, it sounds the same on my machine. Still on the list though.
good question. i doubt joe reads all the comments here, but he must read all comments on his blog. so maybe a quick note somewhere to say you listen to "aside" and are now a subscriber.
OK, I'll do that
Joe on FaceBook
Twitter not updates very well
*updated
I was going to suggest a note on his blog
it doesn't affect me at all. it just happens by magic.
:)
It's really not a big deal and only noticeable on an external audio source (or headphones)
I'm just a perfectionist giving feedback
Like stuff that comes out of the kitchen
Until Sunday :D
You might say automagically.
I don't have Facbook and I dislike Twitter.
I'm a fuddy-duddy
feedback is good.
we're also brainstorming on new things we ought be considering doing next year. is there anything we're missing or need to add in terms of shows[questionmark]
Speaking of which
Christine: Film show. I was thinking of 5 films that don't ever hit top * lists in a "in no order" format
Plus some fillers, if needed. OK?
You want to do more?!
Comment on his blog then
You don't need the other two, you're better off tbh
[though I like twitter, for now]
{until my sister joins}
well... or replace other stuff with better stuff. just kicking around ideas mostly.
Honestly, in F1? You've got it wrapped up
I have picked out five films that I thought might be my Top 5 but were really just five films I could think of at the time. I have a couple of fillers, and I know Mr C is dying to heckle so we should be fine :)
As I said, only digest is replaceable but I'm such that I will see or read about the sessions I miss
Others may need it
My neices and nephews are on facebook - I dont want to be the crazy annoying uncle
Ok, I'll not take any heckling that isn't without merit
I can do 'the smackdown' with ease
This is OUR show :)
The "discussion" shows make it for me. I love them (heart them, even!)
Very true
yup, lots of use to those who don't have access to live pictures. but it can be tweeked maybe.
But you don't have to 'friend' them
But in all honesty, stay away fromFB
*heckles more quietly*
It could, but that's the hardest one to zhoosh up
cheers, will keep that in mind. are you thinking panel shows too[questionmark]
My hearing is as good as my memory ;)
...and these young people seem to be getting younger!
sure, they are great, but the ones you and Christne do always bump TWIT on my ipod :D
Panels/Quizes alternating with Debriefs with the "we're having a week off" here and there
Is this what happens in the early hours.- you suddenly start typing your punctuation out? Crazy[exclamationmark]
Am going to bed now, night/morning all :)
Is Leo that good
I haven't tried
5 half hour+ podcasts per week people put me off
Night Christine
Will likely send you an email tomorrow regarding the show
Night [exclamation]
AMY!!!
i broked the keyboard.
#sorrymrsc
The best tech stuff.
Usually
We know
Tis part of why we love you sir, you're just like us
He he zzzzzzz hehe zzzzz
I am laughing in my sleep!
:D
i must sleeps to.
we loves y'all soooo much...
Put Nick to sleep with 80s music talk
Once a week is ok
Better than those BoL folk
AMY!!!!!!
Night Mr C
:D back at ya's
See ya big man!
OK, I'm off for lunch
Mmm, lunch
What are you having?
Get extra chilli for me please
I think all I have left is soup
Put some chillis in it then
It'll taste better, I swear
Just found a pic of my poker shirt
It's gonna be a quiet couple of hours at this rate
I have been playing online poker on my iphone. It's great fun.
However, I think some of it is rigged. Some people get totally amazing hands again and again
I don't know why he doesn't remap his keyboard
WE need some folk to keep me awake, I'm on a mission
I fear I will fail beore dawn, never mind noon
What's the mission? I'm going out soon
I cannot repeat lest it fails
I will turn to films soont hen and keep the volume down for sake of the neighbours downstairs
Secret mission. Understand.
I'm watching Singapore 2008, again, while eating lunch. Piquet was really struggling during his pit interview - was he trying to think what excuse to make up :-)
JJ72 are keeping me happy in the meantime
Ooh, source?
It's my collection recorded from the TV
S'ok am searching. will have in very soon
*it
I wonder if they will investigate other Renault races in 2008, 2009. Maybe Jnr wasn't such a bad driver.....
...nah.
He really was :)
Is :)
He only agreed/suggested to crash to keep his job
Nuff said
yes, he was
You have to think, though, if it worked once, they would try something similar again
Thinks about Japan and Alonso's other win...
Must watch that later.
Anyway, I'm off.
Got it!
See ya Paul
Dropio now has added cowbell.
Amy will surely be asleep for another 2 hours?
Lightweight :D
Geek out! ;)
I have a "Gotta have more Cowbell" T actually
she kicks my bum in the 'ability to operate on zero sleep' department
when I saw cowbell guy, I knew what had to happen
#sorrytonobody
:D :D
How many people here have the same 1st reaction:
I must drop.io THAT? :)
Nothing else explains
http://drop.io/sidepodcast/asset/18092009-003
I tried...
I have to sleep now
[sorry Amy, i did predict this]
are any London folk going to kidnap Heikki for me today? :D :D
oh it appears Bassano was trying. It's the thought that counts!
talking to yourself? ;) ;) :P
the chips were in honour of Spa (and they were delicious)
just catching up, I may have slept for 13 hours and missed 900 comments :)
yum yum yum delicious chips
http://drop.io/sidepodcast/asset/archives-jpg
who did this? :D
My brothers in the country :D yeeey
morning!
Morning sir!
Morning morning.
For all Button doubters...
http://runoffarea.co.uk/2009/09/19/button-slump-blamed-on-baggage-allowance/
This explains everything
Morning Alison.
How are we all today?
Not too bad cheers
hahahahaha, poor effort bassano!
Good good. There's a mystery item of food that's making my kitchen smell though. I really need to find it....
Morning all... oh what a wonderful morning... oh what a wonderful day!
I am bad because I just made some jelly and I want it now. Stupid boiling water.
Did you make it out of powder or cubes?
You sound cheerful!
Hehe, dont tell me from 5 months ago, but i just found £10 of his money in some trousers ;)
Morning everyone!
I have finally got all my chores completed! WhooHoo! I've had things that I've had to do in all of my free time since last Thursday and now I am finally free!
This means I am going to unwrap Beatles Rock Band which I haven't even had a go on yet because of all of this busy busy busyness
Woohooo!
Oh and i got my refund for the cricket when it rained! :D
Yay!
You got an actual raincheck neat :)
jelly crystals. I bought some of the cubey ones once from the British shop, it BLEW MY MIND.
A rain-cheque? ;) :D
have fun! I am playing right now :)
awww, simple pleasures. we clearly take jelly for granted over here
I now have the words "I'm going to take a raincheck on that..." going round and round and round and round my head
That's where it comes from etymologically
:D it tasted exactly the same when it was made though :)
You 100% definitely made that word up
Is it wrong when you appeared online on my playstation I waved?
I do that too :D
Here is a picture of my progress :D
http://drop.io/sidepodcast/asset/19092009
I looooooove playing those two. The dreamscapes are so purdy!
No.... It's a real word :P
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/raincheck
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/etymologically
It is! well sort of, technicaly a rain check gives you a pass in i think but its all good :D
It's kind of a reverse raincheck or something :)
hmmm, i'll have to believe you because you are of course, Proffessor Giggles.
On a giggling note, i was at the cinema yesterday, and properly laughed, and couldnt stop, you know like those annoying people you just want to shut up because the joke was 5 minutes ago?
Well yesterday that was me!
ooh, playstaion people, nearly all my friends are x-bots... can i get involved with this? are there names on the wiki?
So in other Belgian news my brother told me this morning that he was taking his girlfriend out shopping in Antwerp this morning (she lives in Brussels)...
I thought to myself hmmmm very suspicious is he telling me what I think he's telling me?
Turns out a shopping trip to the diamond capital of Europe with your girlfriend was exactly what I thought it was...
And she said yes :)
Awesome!!!!!!! :D
What was the movie?
i heart playstation people and there really isn't enough because I only have 2 PSN friends. If I could get one answer to one question from any F1 driver it would be 'whats your PSN username?' :D
hooray new sister for Alex!
*ahem*
Julie and Julia
Can playstation people talk to wii people?
Ah... I'm going to see that this afternoon. Can't go wrong with a bit of Nora Ephron
It was AMAZING. I loved it
absolutionlukeh
add me today and get a free...um... soemthing!
ass whooping ;)
Does mean I will probably be spending even more time in Belgium than I do now. Gosh I haven't been to Belgium for months!
Well you will be next year :D
only on the doohickey :D
tell them to get married in Paris, then you can go there too :D
I am ElBoublador (dont ask!) I will be on it in 10!
I will add you too. Yay new friend!
You have increased your friend productivity by 50% so far today, good job ;)
At least I achieved something. I was going to go to the supermarket at 5pm but look what happened to the weather then. So I had toast for dinner, and will have jelly when it sets.
http://www.earthsci.unimelb.edu.au/~awatkins/melbtemp.html
Classic summer's day here.... Oh wait, that's your winter?? I don't think you'll enjoy Spa so much :P
I grew up with NZ weather, I'll cope :D
The cold here came when the rain came and its an hours walk there and back to the supermarket I was going to, so no outside for me today.
Okay, so what crazy person thought it would be a good idea to stay up till 4am the day before the massive Sidepodradio Prep day.
*sheepishly raises hand*
Gah.
oooops!
Blame it on the Boogie?
Whoo!
you didn't sleep til 4pm, thats a good start.
Apparently you can do friends in Beatles Rock band...
4377-9054-0805
It just sits there mockingly saying You have no friends ;)
I pondered buying a wii once but then i realised I reeeeally don't need one even though I want one :D
hehehe, i have a wii but i am yet to take it online, i will try next week, then we wont be the loners of wiitopia ;)
You are like a version of me who makes better decisions...
F1 Badger met the BBC lot at Monza last weekend: http://www.f1badger.com/2009/09/badger-meets-the-bbc/
The Kravtiz never fails to impress me with his knowledge and witty banter.
Anyway people, avast! i must be off!
Down south where the grass is green...
Dont forget to talk like a pirate! gaaaarrrrh! ;)
tell that to my sunglasses ;)
And as Nick plods off, I wander in.
Do you have to be on a wii then to be freinds on rockband?
That's my new phrase for the day :)
AmyNews:
http://uk.ps3.ign.com/articles/102/1025966p1.html
yes :( I can play online but only with other people playing it on the Playstation.
hooray! Except I don't have any Rock Band games apart from the Beatles one so I have no access to the store :D
Booo!
I can't see why that would be... Odd...
I even called myself Dr Giggles :)
Ted. is. awesome!
Sony run Playstation's online system
Nintendo run Wii's online system
It would be like McLaren and Ferrari shaking hands and sharing their cars about with each other :P
ICKLE PANDA: http://www.zooborns.com/zooborns/2009/09/baby-panda-san-diego-zoo-again.html
I've never had any kind of games console not even a GameBoy! I feel deprived!!
It has just mocked me by saying, "congratulations you are ranked 1st amongst your friends at this song".
I have stopped playing...
I've got to admit I'm getting better,
I'm getting better all the time.
Baby pandaaaaaaa!
Ilove how in the Ted interview he says 'It's not over till it's over, like my cousin Lenny says...' :D
:) I would have thought Rock Band would connect to rock bands servers... I guess there are probably rules about that!
That zooborns site keeps coming up trumps :)
I like that they say: In a kind of intravenous drip of adorability, the San Diego Zoo is slowly and steadily releasing pictures of their newborn panda cub.
Oh yeah they connect to Harmonix servers and whatnot but on seperate servers, probably individually moderated or whatever by the competing console makers.
:)
Or something like that. I've never really thought about it it works!
zing!
It's weird... I can't think that there can be any technical reason... It must be the console vendors being big 'ol meanies :)
Oh it absolutely is. They wouldn't dare dream of being nice to each other! The only two sharing online services are between Windows PC games and Xbox 360 games, as you can have online games and friends playing between the two. With individual consoles though it's a big stinking NO. :(
I was just about to say maybe it's a timing thing because the different machines would be running slightly different versions of the code.... But if PCs and XBOX can do it then it can't be. It must be them being mean.
morning all.
Morning!
You just made it.....
ummmm?
Or the bit "...those Alonso fans have clearly got the horn!"
Spam-tastic!
If you have three seconds to spare, could you do me a favour and vote for my ladyfriend's picture in this competition?
One to vote for is "Milvus Milvus." No need to register or give any details, just simple select and vote.
Thanks!
oh crikey, it's nearly afternoon?
The morning. It's almost over!
hey dank. that's plug-tastic :)
can we vote more than once?
you have 8 minutes to get to London and Heikkinap a driver for me.
my morning is officially extended until 6pm.
Says only once from each IP address. Can try I guess.
Any free proxy servers out there? :-D
wouldn't it be easier for someone who, maybe, lives in london to do that?
if i go i'll have to pay the congestion charge.
Bassano fell asleep, Alex was busy.
Because that's the only hurdle :P
i fear i may be too late: http://twitpic.com/iaaaf
can't hurt. shall try.
But that is Amy's dream. Where is she?
rumour has it you're quite tall, you could easily push women and children out of the way.
Which photo are we voting for, there are a lot of quite good ones ;-)
search for: Milvus Milvus
...and you're wrong btw ;)
Probably. I have know idea about photography, but I am a sucker for sea/beach/island images
Ssshhh...
It's Milvus Milvus as suggested. Just scroll to the bottom and don't look at any of them!
...and birds of course, which are coming on strong in the votes!
oooo. 3 more votes and we have the lead. Come on people!
(no, not competitive at all) :D
By the way, if anyone is interested and/or keeping an eye on Twitter, I am tweeting my Sidepodradio prep progress throughout the day.
Done
Twitter = evil. Do not tempt me!
you can follow without signing up:
http://friendfeed.com/sidepodcast-tweet-stream
I like the live updates :)
I do have a twitter acount. I'm just wondering how long I can persist with this opposition
Thanks!
Everyone seems to be preparing for their sidepodradio show. I'm sitting here with loud music and videos on. Hmm.
:P
If you post a tweet in the next hour I'll donate £5 to Sidepodradio!
i'm not at all, am working on sidepodsitemobile thingy.
Watching the Vicar of Dibley. There is nothing on since the F2 and the football.
Oooh! I don't know how. I don't even know what my password is.
Ahem, the Forgot Password button?
I'm not either I'm working on a video for http://goforodd.com
or what email account I set it up with. Honestly, it was ages ago I signed up
New account?
Is there going to be a special donate button on the SPC site?
(now, of course I will have to donate at least £5)
I'm trying to tidy my bookcase while I watch the Simpsons but I'm watching it with the commentary and trying to pay attention so I'm not doing very well with the tidying
loadsa options: http://sidepodcast.com/playground/donations.php
Tidying your bookcase?? How does something like that become necessary?
Ok will leave that to tomorrow's show.
The Aside was great, by the way
I have one of those cubey Ikea ones that everyone in the world has so I like to use the cubes to separate my books by subject, and then I like them ordered by size. Too many months of just throwing things in randomly has resulted in me taking everything out and putting it on the floor. Putting it back in is the hard part :D
How do I post a twitter so alex knows i did it?
On your post about donations, somehow Alex still managed to get a plug in for his book!!
You could put @alexandronov in it the message so I can see it.
Blimey that was before I went into plugging overdrive... Which reminds me Alison... Have you got a subscription to GP+?
Awesome value, that
Yes! So there.
:)
Hold on, I'm not used to being out of my depth, but I DONT UNDERSTAND the twitter site.
£5 now donated! :)
(I also bought a copy of your book but I'm not sure when it's going to arrive due to postal striking madness....)
http://twitter.com/paulfaus/status/4100764080
Too kind! Gosh all you people really are too kind!
Will Paul post on twitter, will Alex fork out that £5, find out, now.
Well that was anticlimatic
I know what you are doing Mr Andronov. You head about my guilt complex.
I will donate tomorrow
:)
Your book is what inspired me to tidy my bookcase. I went to give it a permanent home and realised all my F1 books were mixed in with books on serial killers and cooking :D
How is it that SPC has 30 twitter posts per day? I have had 2 in 6 months!
and the cover has quite good resistance to red wine!
You don't want to mix those two up or you could be a cereal killer...
kertish!
Hmm, that could be intresting. 'Bang, there was a shot from close range'. Doesn't sound like a F1 story does it.
Or does it? That gives me an idea.
hahaha!
Your yolks, they slay me.
*cries*
now I really want some eggs. Damn!
:)
*groan*
Nooooo
no, no, no...
now you say, "now I could really kill for some eggs"!
The question is, what happened to Jake Turnweed?
:D
I want some cereal too because of you.
Breakfast at 9.47pm?
Are you sure this is talk like a pirate day. Sounds more like 'Bad joke day' to me.
Doesn't Australia have supper?
now, I'm not one to follow the popular crowd, but I just donated (pound sign)5 as well :D
of course, but my mother would insist that those are breakfast foods :D
Grrrrr. Yes, OK, me too. I was trying to wait until tomorrow
w00t!
$9.62 to be more precise ;)
Blimey that was some good plugging :)
exactly!
I refuse to feel pressured into donating..... :P
this currency conversion makes me realise when I change my money for my holiday into pounds and euros, I'm suddenly going to feel a lot poorer.
been a good week for you!
wayhey
I can't help it.
cheers paul :)
I can feel less guilty about my F1 pleasures now
and now that you've contributed to upkeep, you can download all of the archives ;)
Heh. I did donate already...
:D
I'm not sure I want to know. Or have the time to look

The donations bit, sorry.
Afternoon all :P
:D yay. I feel part of the team
Have you chosen a charity?
Afternoon
Afterwards.
I feel part of the team twice :D
I've updated the correct running total ;)
Heya Scott.
Okay, just curious. I'm a charity person.....
Suggestions here: http://wiki.sidepodcast.com/page/Sidepodradio+Charity+Suggestions
We'll be holding a poll.
We can make suggestions though.
Oh boo. I shall have to do it again tomorrow
Thanks.
RG - were you watching TV when you recorded this show?
Possibly.
Y'see, I test skyped it and I heard nothing in the background, so assumed it was ok.
How do you predict this will affect the sound quality?
Cool!
hehe. christine has magic tools to make things louder.
How about Rob's? (if that still exists)
oooh, good plan.
No change, Christine is awesome.
Oh my gosh. I didn't realise his baby died :( That's so sad :(
I think a runthrough of SRW tonight on Skype might be in order... :P
ollie wrote a post about SANDS a while ago that's worth checking out.
recommend you turn your tv down :D
:D
Luca's suit probably fetched a higher price than it would now, after the comeback.
Not sure how legal this is but I am stuck in traffic :(
OO.Brisbane won tonight Nick
Boo, just had to renew my McLaren membership. Why do things keep demanding money from my Spa fund!
Anyone watching the World Series by Renault? I think Brendon Hartley was involved in a crash. The commentators are no help at all.
Mini James Hunt?
Hah.
Just realised Lemon and Limey, or Tim, is driving.
How does not-James go against not-Seb?
not James was on pole, I know that much.
Well Lemon and Limey is miles better and as far as I know, still in the race.
:)
Why doesn't he get a chance at TR?
they hate New Zealand :(
Booo. No sense of history
van der Drift is 12th.
My mistake, Hartley is still in it. Stupid commentator.
and the results table implies Tim is much better, but we'll ignore that.
Oh. Not-James hasn't done that well has he.
I'll add you later Lukeh, probably don't have any of the same games though :)
hows the homepage going? :P
I was just reading that. It is good. I googled Rob Smedley charity and that was the first sensible looking result.
good ta. have changed the url slightly. now can be found at:
http://mobile.sidepodcast.com/
thus far, have added an about button :)
Someone been playing with their iPhone a little bit too much? :P
Already found something I don't like in Shift - the AI at times can be too aggressive. Just did a car battle in an M3 against an RS4, and the Audi in the first round race just seemingly forgot to brake and shoved me out the way mid-corner. I know racing needs to be fast-paced and close, but that's uncalled for.
hehehe.
That would be a good charity to support, I know it isn't motorsport related but its Rob related ;)
I'll donate some money now for sidepodradio :D
That said the car battles seem to be any easy place to make cash. $30000 for just 2 laps of racing overall.
I donated, think I did it right :lol:
you certainly did, thank you james. cheers. is it okay to add ya to the wiki?
http://wiki.sidepodcast.com/page/Sidepodradio
Sure thing :)
I am compiling a shopping list for The Great Supermarket Trip (attempt number 2).
Any suggestions?
Poptarts!
Cheese, selotape, biro... Oh wait that's my list. Donations kindly accepted!
I think I'd have to make a special trip to USA Foods to buy those, I haven't seen them in the supermarket :D
Hello all, just had my shopping delivered, it's the best way. Definitely chocolate, after that it doesn't really matter :lol:
so far mine says 'coffee, jam, teabags, tinned peaches'
not a meal in that lot!
I love supermarket delivery, but I only do it when they have free delivery deals :D
bread, milk?
I got both of those yesterday from Aldi on my way home :D
Not having a car it's the same to pay for delivery or a taxi back from the shop for me. I've got chicken & bacon tortelloni & fresh green pesto - a great meal
I don't have a car so I either pay $2 on the tram or I walk and don't buy much. This was going to be a walking trip since I haven't gotten any exercise in forever, but the list is quickly expanding.
ooh the Simpsons episode I am watching now is the one where they get a new panda for the zoo, but its is actually Homer in a panda suit. Very Mr Cish.
Amy: I attempted to stay up in order to go to the Heikki appearance this after in London. Alas, I am not Borg :(
I saw that! Good effort though. You can buy me a beer next year instead :D
Pasta is always good and those small jars of stir-in sauces don't weigh much when tour carrying it all home
Deal. I want to think of SPC relatedmessages for the signing sessions at Spa ;)
Are the posties actually on strike? I'm a bit confused. I heard a lot of whining on the Today programme and presumed they were but then my letters all came. But now amazon keep emailing me with revised delivery estimates which has never happened before....
I have just discovered that delivery prices are a lot cheaper than they were last time I investigated. This may be my last supermarket trip ever ;)
I think it's localised and sporadic before a big official may happen. I had no mail all week until Fri
My recorded delivery from a games website didnt turn up so I think so... but I'm unsure if they are. Its really annoying!!
Booooo! Only in England, would that seem like a good plan (possibly also France....)
Save our unprofitable business or or or we just won't go to work....
What a great music night in the comments last night
Loved it
The French posties would strike if they didn't like their uniform!
Strike? Half of Paris would be on fire.....
i felt my age, i had no idea what most of what you were talking about was. Or maybe I should blame it on being foreign. yes, that will do it.
It was quite heavily centred on the British Indie scene of the 90's so you never stood a chance really
You're not foreign, you're a Kiwi!
Chances are you're a Celt or Anglo Saxon ;)
Alison, do we have your contact details, either Skype or number?
the only one that made me go 'ooh' was Skunk Anansie who were rather mainstream there for a while :D
You should do now! Sorry....
With songs like "Little Baby Swastika", I wouldn't say mainstream :)
Popular for a little bit, maybe
Minor panic averted
Keyboard was not reponding [earlier posts were on the phone]
Thought the spilt Shiraz had finally had it's way. Reseated the USB and all is well [fingers crossed]
Excellent, thanks :)
So, breakfast 1st, then some SPR prep [thanks Steven ;)]
thats probably a better word, yes :D
Do you mind if I resend my contact authorisation because you still show up as a question mark in my contacts and therefore on the bottom and out of quick reach should you disappear from the call.
I'm a good rally driver!

Noice!
Nice skill to land back on the wheels
better than Kimi!
Afternoon all.
Hot out...
Hi Stuart
Errr no?
Fluctuating between 27.1 and 27.2 degrees, according to the screens.
Where are you Stuart?
I have that sort of rain storm going in where the rain falls horizontally. It reminds me of February.
Barcelona. They're using a peculiar variant of the circuit - right turn about 150m before Turn 1, rejoining between Turns 6 and 7.
In other news, this'll be my second X Factor-free weekend. What have I missed?
How tempting it is to say "nothing." :)
the silence said it all :D
I've just decided I'll order myself another pizza later as noone is gonna be home till late (3rd saturday in a row, tut tut..) and I blatently need to influence Amy to get a pizza as well.
I actually just planned out all my meals for the next week to assist with my shopping and Friday nights dinner is "free pizza" (for FP1 of course)
I shall not cave before then!
Where do we start? ;)
I thought I had an X factor addiction. I've realised that I really don't.....
Make your own pizza!! Easy, delicious, cost effective :D
The Pizza Resistance. Totally should've been the name of Muse's album...
Afternoon everyone. About to go to the cinema. You can take beer in! What devilry is this?
Our local cinema is really fussy with food taken in! But the extortionate prices are horrific. £4 for some fanta? BOO.
Its to encourage you to take out the teens!
Am about to have some extremely frsh coffee, I may be a jittering mess soon.
We shall see
http://drop.io/sidepodcast/asset/just-coffee-jpg
http://drop.io/sidepodcast/asset/just-ground-jpg
That's what bags are for
They check bags and everything :(
"It my shopping" :)
Where is this place? Sounds like my new favourite cinema.
Good Lord invasion of privacy!
Yum!!
I erred on the side of caution and went light, just this once
My cinema has put up a lot of signs saying bags will be searched. I find this pretty horrific. I once made my local supermarket phone the police to conduct an official search of my handbag when they accused my very hungover self of thieving paracetamol worth about 30p (which I obviously hadn't....)
Hey Fella. What are you watching Giggles?
Forgot about this :)
http://drop.io/sidepodcast/asset/poker-shirt-jpg
Giggles drinking Peroni [?] at the flicks
http://drop.io/sidepodcast/asset/photo-250
clapham picture house
Love that place
we are just about to watch julie and julia
Most cinemas are licenced now. Which I find a bit odd.... When I worked at a cinema, I spent half my life taking wine off people!
other beers are available :)
I've heard that's good
I just hate Meryl Streep
Bassano sign the pettition to get the chain extended to Crystal Palace. Town planners want to turn the site into another Church.
other movies are available.
I saw Kat's tweet and meant to do that. Thanks for the reminder
I've been sorta following this tale for years, my sister used to be near there
This is for my blog, is there too much on this graph? http://drop.io/sidepodcast/asset/graph-jpg :)
In the lower section, yes
Can you expand the Y axis?
Do you need to compare all those lines at once? It's impossible to look for trends using that graph. Are there some you'd rather compare than others? Consider analysing the figures then publishing the results of that on a graph rather than plotting raw data?
Its showing the posistion on the grid race winner started from, pole, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and those higher than 5th. I think the problem is I have 20 years on there, I'll halve it and see how that goes.
I'm confused. It's showing the position on the grid, that the race winner started from at one particular circuit? Why is there more than one line? What is the line at the top, this one is the most confusing to me :P
thats number of races per year :D
Ha ha
Theres no one as Irish as Barack O'Bama
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Xkw8ip43Vk
Its ok I don't think I explained properly. It's showing all the starting positions the race winner started from for all seasons, so it's possible to compare seasons.
Try the last 5 years and see how that looks
I'm building on this post ;) http://f1loonie.wordpress.com/2009/09/18/10-pole-to-chequered-flag/ (which I have now noticed there are some mistakes on that graph)
I removed the number of races and set it to 10 and it's much clearer. :)
Ooookay. I did actually get my A Level further maths. Who would have thought simple graph interpretation would be beyond me.....
:)
I am to blame though, I say and do things sometime thinking other people know what they need for it to make sense and often they don't.
Also known as, not explaining properly ;)
Swine! That's going to be in my head for the rest of the day now.
Blame grand prix diary, they tweeted it :D
So bad but so catchy
:D That's a nice little blog you've got yourself there....
You should listen to the Interview with Bloggers show tommorow on Sidepodradio. I talk about my blog on there :)
Does youtube have every single video ever on it?! {Comment #348}
No. I'm sure there are two videos filmed by some teenage unsigned act with too much time on his/her hands (certainly more time than talent) in some distant corner of the world which haven't made it there yet.
Guys, I shall be live streaming in a few moments with live pics of NFS Shift, this time with the camera placed on my tripod. :P
Joe has an interesting story. Seems Piquet senior had a word with Charlie Whiting before the end of last season to tell him that his boy had crashed deliberately and Whiting told Max. {Comment #410}
Just when I thought the "Nelsinho Defence" story could get no gloomier, we find out the FIA have been sitting on this time bomb for months...
OK, live streaming now.
My bandwidth causes streaming fail but enjoy!!
Mmmmmmm pizza!
You're all taunting me today with iPhones, pizza. I have none of these things :(
Aww noo.
I'll send some your way then :P
None for me. Whenever I have pizza I always eat too much I've had 12 slices before :)
This'll cheer you up, supossedly snapped in Aberdeen. Look closely
http://drop.io/sidepodcast/asset/vest-fail-jpeg
Shush. You're making me need like I need a pizza the action myself...
Stuart, that's so cheesey
In non-news news, regard this:
http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12433_5569828,00.html
Pinched from a news story I sourced the quotes for, and it's interesting how in being reheated from someone casually admitting that they need to do better, the story has become something subtly different. Just goes to show that the further the story goes from the source, the less relevant it becomes to what they actually said...
That's Sky News [spits] for ya
I would like to tell off Mark Webber and Jenson Button for having the only two names (first and last respectively) that I can't add to the auto-correct list to automatically capitalise when I am transcribing.
Blimey you take this very seriously! Try using find and correct after you're finished to find the places to capitalise afterwards.
that is my current method but I was looking to save a tenth of a second :D
Hehehehe alright Fernando.
How is your strategy looking for the transcription? Think you can stay out and transcribe the whole thing without another stop? If you need to pit go on page 12 and fuel your tummy for another 30 pages.
i bring six tenths to this transcription!
I am expecting a red flag at half distance and then a race restart where I shall improve on any errors I made the first time around.
Uh oh, I can see it now...
'Did you tell Ms Amy to cause a red flag on purpose via spinning out of control whilst trying to transcribe?
I do not want to answer that question.
Mr Lukeh, does it not seem unusual to you that Ms Amy kept transcribing at full throttle when she was clearly in a deep spin in the chair she was sitting in?
Yes, it does seem unusual'
Oh err, wearing pants as a top
Mmmm Saturday kitchen reruns!!
Anyone enjoying the live streaming of NFS Shift? :P
Eurgh 1kg of salt!!! I'm a lot less enthusiastic about Saturday kitchen at this precise moment....
:D :D
Have noticed the AI come across a few times in your racing line. Seems very... aggresive...
That was something Gamespot picked up. Couple of times now I've been bumped out of the way by them.
I suppose they're going for a more human-style AI but still, they almost took you out rather than defended!
Spaaa!
That's very odd for it to be Spa from a year or two ago...
I can't play racing games anywhere as realistic as that with no HUD and depending on the gagues in the car. Kudos to you mr woodwiss :P
Hahaha.. wow. That was impressive :P
Interesting. I'll wait for the demo in a week before I decide if I want buy the game. The oversteer and ohysics sound annoying :(
Time for some beatles rock band for me now though...
Some piccies of Yas Marina taken at the official handover (sorry if you've already seen them) Link
5/8 looks like bad photoshopping
Are those cardboard cut-outs? :)
That is one nice track.
Oh yeah .. looks like the drivers are
Looks impressive though I'm reserving judgement till race weekend
I'm assumng it's a Tilke-drome
[Is he exclusive?]
No idea .. here are some more http://www.aldar.com/construction_progress.en
@Scott Looks like Veyron + Nordschleife = funnn ;)
Hehehehe. Top Gear need to try that out...
Anyone seen his Aragon circuit? That doesn't have a long straight and a tight corner.
Is that in Lord of The Rings?
Heh.
http://www.motorlandaragon.com/pagEstaticaVelocidad.aspx?id=42
Why does no-one else design F1 tracks?? Herman seems to have a bit of a monopoly.
Bernie and/or Max operate that way :(
Bernie doesn't like I change I suppose.
:)
apparently it mirrors your style, if you are aggressive with them, they will me more ageessive with you..
I'm scared to think if I played the game then.
But I wasn't being aggressive! I was just braking and the AI car just ran straight into the back of me and carried on!
i guess on the one hand at least they credited autosport...
i'm amazed they haven't found a way to sneak in a reference to montoya owning some model aircraft mind you. he used to drive for williams, that's more of an angle than sky usually need.
:lol:
The only 2 sources I excude from the Inside F1 app are Sky and the other idiots I won't even bother name checking
i skip three:
- sky
- pf1
- f1-live
Ah yes
I often read based on headlines and skip the obvious nonsense
Do you like it Mr C?
i do. it's very handy. eurosport also.
in fact, this week i convinced someone to get an itouch based on the fact they could get cricket scores using the eurosport app :)
Nice!
You had me looking up prices earlier.... Then I realised it was very costly and ridiculous!
I'm getting an Nano for my mum's birthday, which is on monday, tomorrow. Trouble is, it's gonna sting me by £115, plus I'm getting one of those straps you put it in and put round our arm when exercising since she'll use it for running on the treadmill.
Thing is, what colour - red (her favourite) or pink?
I whoeheartedly support the idea of red. :P
Does the red one cost more because they give to charity? Or did they stop their charitable phase?
Pass.
Yes it's (Product) Red
I'd say it depends how much more expensive the red one is. If it's only a little bit, I'd get that. If not, go for the pink. My favourite is the blue!
Actually, those are the same price now
Mr c is a secret cricket fan... :D

I wish I had an affinity with Ted :)
purple! purrrrpleeee!
huh?
I don't see the new stainless steel one on the site :(
Ah, that was a shuffle
Doh!
It's in a separate section, I was looking at it this morning
I say go for red & if she's using it for exercise can you stump up the extra £19.00 for the Nike +iPod Sport Kit? Apparently it has a pedometer and other fitness stuff
Can I second this? :P
Mind you I think you need the special Nike trainers to go with, perhaps a bit too much
back in my day ipods came in one colour and I had to buy a purple case for it.
I had a silver mini, 4GB
Bought what's known as the Classic now after that, largest size was 80GB
Now it's 160GB
I was just listening back to the interview with Ted that F1 badger did and I thought... I like Ted - I wish I had an affinity with him :)
Link?
My iPod is 10GB That was considered a big one at the time.....
I carry my Classic in my bag cos I can't have everything on my iPhone, 32GB is not enough
http://www.f1badger.com/2009/09/badger-meets-the-bbc/
It was on here earlier.
Ta
Heh no I'm not advocating it as enough space.... I couldn't even fit all my podcasts on there :(
True
mine was 20GB and after it broke 3 times under warranty and once not in warranty I swore I'd never buy another one. If my Walkman ever breaks I will probably get an iPod next time though, my problems were all hard drive based and in these days of solid state drives its not such an issue
ahh. well you can't buy an affinity.
Nissan make them don't they?
But you can just make one up.
You can't buy affinity in the shops but for a limited time...
:D
I need your opinions. Do I get an iPod Touch now or wait until my phone contract runs out in February and get an iPhone? Am with Vodafone and can upgrade my phone in November when I could get a Nokia 5800. I know the iPhone is good & I can get a deal with O2 as we use them at work but I just don't know whether I want to wait that long. Buying myself out of my contract is an option as this would balance against the cost of an iPod Touch. I just can't decide whether I want everything in one place for convenience or whether it just means I will lose everything if I lose it or it gets stolen. What do you think?
If your contract runs out in Feb then I'd wait until June when next year's refresh will happen. It'll like be 64GB by then. As for losing stuff, back it up regularly and insure it
You can always buy an iPod touch through the refurb store for a reduced price and sell it on eBay when you get your phone
They hold their value pretty well
the low-end itouch is rather fab.
I hate constant upgrades :D I got my iPod when no one had one and everyone wanted one, and then a few months later they got *gasp* colour screens and suddenly mine was old and not cool anymore :D
What do you mean by "low-end"?
16GB - £159
Boooo colour screen!!!
who needs colour! I've seen Pleasantville!
The 8GB model is £149 but doesn't have the faster chip and earphones with Mic
http://store.apple.com/uk/browse/home/shop_ipod/family/ipod_touch?mco=Nzk2MDUxNQ
It's last years model
But is rather fab as Mr C says
:D
I haven't seen it in about 10 years and now I kind of want to watch it again
Evening folks. :) How's everyone?
Hi Journeyer
Good thanks, and you?
I hate the way you feel pressured into getting an engraving on them. I never know what to write on things like that. I could never get a tattoo, I'd panic and end up writing something lame.
There's a skip engraving button
It's worth more if unengraved
got one engraved once. the writing was wonky. #applefail
I woulda sent it back
#toofussy
I imagine you saying something like:
"I love VHS... no wait Betamax... no wait... VHS..."
And then getting a tattoo of "I kind of like a wide variety of formats but I long for the day when one becomes dominant"
Most boring thing ever? Waiting for a video to finish rendering...
I considered having a party the day HD-DVD died.
how long.
And then lynn truss would come along and tattoo in the extra apsotrophie
?
Someone else needs a shiny MacBook Pro :)
for video rendering? macpro.
This is a short video but it seems to take forever... The video is only 11 mins long. The rendering is saying it will take about 30 mins
Other than the fact that I have no idea what Betamax is..... :P
:)
figures. our 9 minute videos were taking more than an hour a minute before we stopped doing them.
I was trying to be reasonable :)
I so want a 24" iMac
Must hold off until Quad Cores arrive in'em
Evening.
Hey Pat
hey pat.
The thing is that 9 hours is annoying but in some ways it's less annoying than 30 minutes because you know you have to just leave and go to work or whatever.
gotta love sony and their stupid proprietary formats (hi minidisc)
What? Your school didn't still rely on them despite having been rendered obsolete for well over a decade?
UMD...
ugh. what a joke.
Golf update: grrr, stupid ball
Still amazed that they got Bluray to work
I have no idea.... Maybe they did. Would I notice? I feel very behind the times :P
Wasn't me :)
All prepped and ready for tomorrow then?
Oh dear :(
I don't think it would have without the PS3. But since I have a PS3, I'm glad it did.
It won't last, physical media is a dinosaur
#MediaFutureChange
Very good - found Motor Sport on the bookstand. First time it's ever been sold in the stores here. Moss is the guest editor.
I bought the one and only copy on sale. :D
I had a MiniDisc player. I thought MP3s were going to be a pain getting them via computer, so why not have MD in your hi-fi and record/play there? I've never been very good at this.
The most annoying thing is that I left it rendering when I went out to the cinema and then I came back to find that I'd forgotten to move the movie forward at the beginning and there was a 20 second blank gap before the movie started!
I just about rented Pleasantville for $3.99 from iTunes but then I remembered it would have to download and its 4.39am already.
I felt very MFC though, I've never rented a cyber-film before :D
It'll survive - thanks to the not-so-developed countries that can't afford high bandwidth.
A pyrrhic victory and no mistake.
The god of wikipedia has taught me that no, I have never encountered any Betamax in my life. But yes, I did go to a school that loved the VHS
They'll get there first because they won't have already spent all of their money on the last high bandwidth solution.
I have a mini disc recorder in my separates rack and used to have a player in my car
I got a lot of use out of them. Sturdier than CDs
I went travelling with heaps of music with my portable player. iPods had just been invented and were way too expensive
Betamax rocked my world in the early 1990s. VHS came here 5 years or so late.
Nicely done, I bought one in the summer, very good stuff you can't find online. IMO they are setting the model for what paper mags should be these days.
But how can virtual media be feasible if you can't download it from somewhere?
Pirated copies won't keep Sony afloat ;)
Indeed so. ;)
theres nothing as enjoyable in the world as being reduced to dial up speeds :D
Chop it
What format is it?
true. unless you've made a mistake...
It wasn't that bad actually. Just towards the end it wanted to go right when I told it to go straight.
Only motorsport magazine I subscribe to is Motorsport.
That's the other reason why physical media will stay alive here. If pirated copies are readily available for dirt-cheap prices, why spend time downloading them? Flawed logic, but that's the thinking here.
me? i'm not doing anything much. christine's working like crazy though.
And now that someone's selling it here, I'll see if there's a way I can subscribe from here - get the reseller to send it directly to the house. ;)
1) Have you got all of the wires and mixing desks that you need?
2) Have you worked out a way of getting to the loo without getting on Camera?
Indeed.
Who says they'll pay for downloaded versions either?
FLV
3) are you stressing about cooking?
1) never have, never will have.
2) erm.
Talking to all you lovely people has helped though... only 5 mins to go.
Both - I can imagine you're both probably a little nervous
Crawl, crawling always works.
Mac or PC?
how stressful can holding a bowl and mixing stuff be?
:D
The price isn't the issue - it's the time. How long will it take to download 700MB minimum? 12 hours at our current speeds? Too long for people over here with the Nissin attitude.
PC
Boo! ;)
really not, no. am working on this: http://mobile.sidepodcast.com/
Is your internet that much slower where you are than here?
I have to wait, usually, about 2-3 mins to start watching an HD movie here (and I don't think I've ever had buffering)
i hear cooking often involves ovens and things
That did something weird earlier
Jumped to a 2007 article about AUTOSPORT
last time the thing put itself in there and got itself out again. mostly i do the mixing.
have been working on it a lot :)
Overnight
Just needs some more prep
Like going gout to buy a movie on disc, or odering it online
average speed here is 512kbps, usually slower than that at peak hours.
even for an F1 race edit upload on the lowest bandwidth, i suffer from buffering.
Indeed. But people aren't used to that here anymore. People usually go out to buy DVDs, then run home to watch them. Which is the Nissin attitude - instant gratification.
That said, the legit CD stores are dwindling here probably as much as it there - but for different reasons to yours.
I can't get the link to work either in Safari or IE8 :-( Safari just says it can't find it & IE8 goes to Google search
it's for iphone/android really. but safari should render it just fine?
It's for mobiles
Does for me
And PSP's and that?
What browser does that use RG?
i don't have one to test with, so i honestly don't know. feel free to try it though.
seems to be down?
for reference it looks like this: http://drop.io/sidepodcast/asset/sidepodcast-iphone-app
i kinda thought it would be easier to do than it has been, but will keep plodding along.
Can I ask a quick question about the live shows tomorrow .. like do we phone you or vice versa?
good question. i think we'll probably play it by ear. is kathi hosting skype calls, i've lost track.
Same for me.
very strange. it's certainly there for me.
It works fine for me!
what error are you seeing?
Mav can't do skype I'm afraid
DNS error - cannot find server
ahh, no worries. can we get a phone number to call him?
trying to prise one out of him as we speak
ahh, maybe the dns hasn't propagated or whatever it is that it does. give it 24hrs. won't be anything to see for ages at this rate anyhow :)
That one exactly.
cool. :D
Why can I use it then? It's not that it was cashed before either, I've just gone on and started playing an aside with joe through it!
I'll tell you what the most annoying thing about finishing a video is... Waiting for it to upload to the internet ;)
:)
Depends where your ISP gets it's list of domain names from and how often it updates them
I'm hosting Nick's show but I can do more if needed. And I still have my skype subscription so I can call Jackie on a landline if needed
thanks you kathi :)
Ready for the pizza
http://drop.io/sidepodcast/asset/1-1241276800355
[tried them the other day, they were disappointingly underwhelming, this should work]
Thanks Kathi .. are you on Skype at the moment and I can log in for a chat
yes I'm online (but hidden :) )
okay I'll sign in if you want to call me .. gimme a couple of mins to dig out headset
You need some Habenero's
I am going to have to go and get some dinner I think...
Simple filled pasta for me tonight.
I usually have Bird Eye or Scotch Bonnet
They had neither when I was at the shop last night
I'll have some too please
[Googles]
I'm not quite ready for that yet :)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habanero_chili
I'll get Katherine to make extra.
lovely. just pop it in the post when you're done, I'll eat it in a few days :D
Is Gavin around? I wouldn't mind having a run through of SRW on Skype :P
Bedtime for me - it's VERY late. Amy, I hope you sleep before the sun rises. ;) Night!
G'night Journeyer
Those chillis should be embarrassed
Damn you Sainsbury's
Night
in 8 minutes! 5.30 sounds like a wise time you see.
sounds like my kind of chilli. :D
Sorry to go back to Spa again, but I talked to Dad about the best way to get there, 'cos he travels Europe for work and has taken the car and the Eurostar. He's driving from Dorset to Berlin at 8am tomorrow.
He basically broke it down like this... do we want the ease of the train (being together, getting a meal the ability to drink, but having to be there on time or miss it), or do we want the flexibility of driving (crammed in a car but able to go wherever we want, when we want, with a 4hr window at the tunnel when booked ahead).
Good assessment
I can see a mixture of both
never be sorry about Spa! WOO SPA.
There are no apologies necessary for mentioning Spa
Will be the biggest thing of 2010
It was interesting following his thought process because it was the same as mine - starting out with the train being appealing (no work), but the car being both more useful and enjoying the road trip! So he recommended the car.
I did say we'd likely split up and meet when we get there.
indeed. I like the idea of a car because I heart road trips but I like the idea of the train since everyone can go together
:-)
I just think we could potentially be annoying the people who can't go.
(I should add that his was far more detailed based on experience)
We'll have to tag soon then
#Spa
to those people I suggest a -Spa filter :D
Or -#Spa
The other thing I was going to ask was about the karting meetup in January. Anything thinking of going?
hark at me being all organised, there's a novelty :-)
Pat, are you close to buying your ticket?
I am, and will be getting Amy's too
I need to ask Dr Giggles what he wants to do
Is there a date, Brum isn't it?
mmm organisation.
And on that note I am one minute past my deadline so I'm going to sleep.
(thats what I say, in truth I will probably just lurk for another hour or so)
No I'm not, I was waiting for further direction!
If you're gonna lurk, you might as well comment
G'night buddy
January the somethingth near the NEC.
see you later
I'll be getting mine next week probably
it would be nice if we had two options for folk as far as track tickets are concerned
If Steeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevvvvvveeeeeeeeeen and Journeyer are around, can we meet up on skype with Kathi at 2pm UK time for a 5 minute chat about the quiz please
Journeyer's just left
One sec
STEVEN!!!!!!!!!!
the threat of moderation is always high after so many incidences of setting bed times and not sticking to them
#nothere
You need to be up for some of SPR though
Thank you
I'd really like to come to Spa but my Mum wants to go to the passion play at Oberammergau next year and I'll need to go with her. It's only on once a decade and as she's 76 I think it'll probably be her last chance. I don't think I would be able to do both :( maybe 2011.
That must be a lot of rehearsing
Ok. Are they numbered or is it a free for all when you get there?
Yeah. So far the choices seem to be either the covered or uncovered grandstand at Eau Rouge for Sat/Sun, and do what you want on Fri
Another quick question .. do you want the show to finish a few minutes early or dead on the half hour time slot?
I am! :D
Don't know yet
Numbered I think, there may be both
Scott - Sidepodradio question.
Your Sim Racers is an hour, but goes over the on-the-hour mark. Do you want to move it to 4pm, or are you happy to have a break and an F1 Minute in the middle of your show?
Probably will do and this time I will waer some thermal undies LOL
Is going early in the year an option, or later
the play will open on May 15, 2010 and ends on October 3, 2010
A break sounds like a fine idea. I actually thought my show started at 4pm anyway! Must be 4:30, I forget :P
Just with Gavin was around so we could to a runthrough though :(
You're fine finishing dead on. Don't forget you'll have an F1 Minute before hand as well, but Sean's show after you is 26 mins, so there are a few minutes to play with either side.
great thanks
DM him
Excellent stuff.
Have you tried shouting?
It's not really about timing, more affordability. We'll probably do a tour around Germany,Austria and then take in the play. I think it'll end up being about £1,500 each once all the expenses are taken into account.
Hmmm.....
GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNN!
Worth a shot, not sure the pinger is working though ;)
Ah nuts, I forgot to finish my blog thing. I got distracted by music last night :-)
Fair enough
You could go near Spa and do a one day general admission
You mum would love Brussells or Liege
Does anyone know how to turn off the mike in windows (for skype calls) without losing the headphone side of the conversation?
Is there a Mute icon in Skype?
not that I can see
#Autosport Show
This relates to the karting event. Obviously I'd go to the show in the day, but I would prefer it if there was an option for a 2-day ticket. I still don't know if one paddock pass would cover both days. Why they didn't think of it I don't know. Seems a bit extorsionate to have to pay twice over just to go to a show on both days.
There should be a mic icon somewhere, click it and that mutes the mic.
ah there is a "greyed out" option box one under "calls". Maybe you have that option when you are on a call
You are one of us now.
Scott, why don't you just email the organisers and ask?
yes but that one also mutes the headphone too
I have a Wii! There's a whole load of Mario Kart numbers on the Wiki.
Sounds reasonable
If the software you are using doesn't have something, you'll have to do it in Control Panel. There used to be a quick way to get there by clicking the speaker icon next to the clock, but I don't think that's there for many people any more (not here on mine). So Control Panel / Sounds and Audio Devices / there is an button under Voice Recording marked Volume. Look for Line-In.
Wow ... this head ping really does work!
Evening all ... just dispatched the kiwi. What a fun day!
Noob! :D
That sounds logical, I'd be amazed if Skype didn't have a mute mic button.
Hey fella
What'choo get up to?
Evening
It does on the Mac
MR C!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Safari Script screenies for ya
http://drop.io/sidepodcast/asset/safari-script-fail-jpg
http://drop.io/sidepodcast/asset/current-memory-jpg
Went to a castle, which had loads of old stuff, a maze, a tree walk, a car and bike museum....
Then we went to the Hans Christian Andersen Museum and the house where he was born
Then she came over for a proper Danish dinner. Tomorrow she is going to Copenhagen and she had a really awesome day. I hadn't seen her for 5 years!
Cool
hehe. is that on filtering?
Found it and tested it out with Kathi, thank you it works perfectly
Sounds like Alison managed to send the rain down South
OH MY GOSH. If this NASCAR...car was real I would watch the sport all the time
woah!
That is very, very cool.
It is, LCLT
Think I may be mutli tasking a little
STEVEN!!!!
no worries. will look into it when we get snowy.
You rang.
Ping is on slow
Never happens on DD
DD FTW!
:D
Lashing down now
LOL :D Can you make a quick conference call at 2pm tomorrow with Journeyer, Mav and myself?
Yes. No problem.
Thank you
am thinking this could be a good model for DD too:
http://drop.io/sidepodcast/asset/sidepodcast-iphone-app
clearly there would need to be a commenting option too. but in principle, if that was the default home screen would that work for you?
Does look very nice :-)
Lovely warm day today, great to be walking around in. Should have had shorts on, had my flat not deceived me again. No rain here.
Personally, I only use DD for commenting
I have a separate broswer open for large screen video for live shows and often Safari or Firefox too
I'll generally access the site proper when I want to read blog posts and such
DD needs navigation if anything. That is all, for me
navigation to where?
Does anyone else need help with skype conferences?
STOP IT. Homepage.
Only if someon aks me a question I can't answer. Very nice of you to volunteer to answer for me
hehehee. i have officially stopped work on the mobile page. i thought it would be a days work, it's probably a weeks work. just think aloud now.
I don't want any coughing now.
That means I can't phone in then
Excellent, thanks.
Oops
I'll make some notes and give them to you after the homepage is done
Uh-oh - he did a Woodwiss :(
I'm technical personal only
Who?
There's space on the wiki for suggestions, etc.
Woodwiss did a Woodwiss of course! ;)
:)
It may be a technical question
what's a Woodwiss is it in the dictionary?
That will be fun tomorrow
Since when did Facebook become twitter?
Of course, how silly of me ;)
Some people just can't keep their mouths shut. Mr rquality steward Garcia is putting the boot into Piquet. I wonder how long it will take him to realise that he has just effectively said that if their is any evidence against his boy Alonso he should be penalised.
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/78732
Trying to make some money I think
They'll try anything
Talking of twitter, loving the profile picture Bassano
There was GP2 today
Bugger!
Ta
It makes me smile
Some jammy person pocket 100,000,000 Euros last night on the euromillions. So unfair
Last one of the year. Apart from the Sprint race tomorrow.
It'll ruin them too most likely :(
[checks Eurosport 2 schedule]
Evening everyone...
So I recorded a video for Sidepodradio which couldn't be used because as Mr C pointed out it's radio not television...
So I have made the video into a Go For Odd episode:
http://goforodd.com/2009/09/challenge-1-the-race/
Check it out if you get the chance :)
Why unfair? Perhaps unlucky for you if your numbers didn't come up, if they bought a ticket they are as entitled as anyone
I don't believe it is live
Cool, will do
Alex, are you up for getting Spa tickets soon?
I know, I'm thinking of today's race
Yeah will do :)
ace. shall do so in a sec.
The subject of the challenge is it faster by foot or tube from Leicester Square to Picadilly circus
Grandstand or free roaming?
The seats may be numbered
I say foot
Unfair because I didn't win and couldn;t figure out how to crash so someone else would
omg, have just seen the hat!
Last Monday ;) I saw them announce it because I'm a fan of facebook.
Hey all :)
Hey Jon. Hows you?
Hi Jon
Even if it's not faster I would always walk, much prefer walking to the tube, you see so many interesting things in London just wandering around
Nervous, tomorrows crept up on me
The musicians on the tune are good
*tube*
Two months since the idea was first suggested, doesn't feel like that.
Who was on commentary? Sounds like Carlton Kirby?
Haven would have been on GP2.
Hi Jon
aha, im not talking about Sidepodradio :P
I start uni tomorrow
:)
Can't remember now.
On a Sunday
Enjoy, you'll have blast
Ohhh right. Lemme try and rectify the situation and, good luck with uni Jon, you will be fine.
Alex: you haven't updated the wiki with your Spa preferences
#Spa
Really? He finished 13th today?
ahahaha :D ta
am sure, ill love it when i get there, just a bit nervous now
Seems a bit odd to start on Sunday but it'll be great & so will you :)
[Listening to Sneaker Pimps: Becoming X]
Five Pints of..
:) thanks
Glad Alex is waiting for the green man at the crossings, road safety at all times :lol:
Get in!
it's important!
Today's GP2 race was on at 2 o'c on Euosport
Tomorrow's race is showing at 3pm
I'll get it sorted!
Ta
Excellent stuff, hope you love it
OMG I just became a fan of my local pub!
Embedded goodness, nice!
Pauses the Sneaker Pimps
*on Facebook, that is!
!!!
he has a beer in his hand....i can tell where this idea came from ;)
:)
Did Alex trip over a little child. If so, well done.
and the cameras a bit more out of focus than usual ;)
I don't remember doing so but it's possible.
NO! you had a slow left lane on the escalator!!!
they annoy me so much
Why..... Although I do agree that people should stand on the RIGHT not the left....
people in the left lane should be quick movers, like alex ;)
its like his very own fitness video
Ooops.
Here they have a rule on the escalators at train stations that you stand to the right and walk to the left. But do people obey it? Do they F...1
Yay, I was right
Nice one Alex, good editing job
What a great video & I get to see it again, it's downloading to my iTunes :)
Bloody hell, the camerawork is more shaky than Blair witch! :D
I need an iSteady ;)
oops. ignore that. publish fail.
as you were.
Was half expecting 'Tube Alex' to turn up at the top and see 'Foot Alex' standing around getting air. And saying 'You imbaseal' in fashion to Top Gear.
:D
Urm.. I just saw the new post and got a bit worried about the time! :D
'You don't know what your doing' ;)
Great stuff Alex - I had a good idea who would win!
You need an iPint and and an iMtiredsoleavemealone after that one!
Thought SPR was starting 14 hours early
Is Amy controlling it now? :D
hehe, was bound to happen eventually.
Alex can say he invented the iM5pintsofawesome app now too ;)
Team principle job available after the start of the season over at Lotus F1
yay :)
How funny would it be if that was advertised in Autosport?
Oh my gosh, I'd be a great team principle. Beats stupid retail management!!
Mr C:
When were you guys thinking of making your Spa tickets purchase?
We are thinking of the 'numbered seating' issue
Autosport had a full page of ads this week for Mike Gascoyne's company MGI
I am thinking about the 'where is my money for the trip' issue!
Lotus is expected to announce its two drivers at the end of October
Tickets first, save for trip between now and August :)
Will you guys let me know when you're buying tickets? I shall try to synchronise.
Of course
umm. well they didn't sell out this year. i was guess july/august?
Saw that yesterday. I asked Alex Yoong but he didn't say anything other than it was 'cool'.
Symonds for the new team principal?
I don't know.... You could be subtly trying to dissuade me from coming :P
You think Eau Rouge will be available then?
I'm buying soon
Prices are cheaper now rather than later
No, I need money for tickets!
Good Night all, see you tomorrow, looking forward to Sidepodradio - 12 hours of Sidepodawesomeness :lol:
Life ban
If guilty, he deserves it
Overdraft? Is that just my studenty solution to this issue?
G'night Janna
See ya Janna
Night!
not that fussed about eau rouge. can watch from there on friday. we'll be fine, don't worry.
It's the finances of choice when there isn't an abundance of dosh :)
OK
Alison, have I got you on Twitter?
Night.
*sigh* I suppose so. I have an account. I lost interest in it when Sebastian Vettel turned out to be an imposter.
I mean, am I following you
Username?
Errrm how do I tell? You won't gain a lot from following me. I can't even find my password....
btw Jackie, thanks for the blog comment, the secret is a DVR ;-)
I was just thinking of using it as a means of communication before buying tickets
But if you don't use it...
I think I sent you a tweet. Or else I hope I did!
night all. everything ready for the great day tomorrow?
Hey Guille
Did you start it with @bassanoclapper ?
Hey
Yes, I can see it
Yes :)
I don't see it
Is it because my tweets are protected, anyone know?
if you're following her it should not make any difference
He isn't I see now... I have issued a request but he never accepted it :(
I wasn't
But have found it now
When?
Request's should have a space to say "this is me from SPC" :)
:)
Errrr when I got the account. I presume I did, I added most people from the wiki page. I really can't use it though. I probably did it wrong.
Replied
that's the wiki for ;-)
evening all! having an exceptional talk like a pirate day me heartys?
Get yourself a twitter app for your 'puter
Makes it a lot better
Try it out for a week, follow some more people, you'll get more out of it
mr.c , am I late for a small voicemail for the sidepodradio, just to say hi?
Hey SLVaron
hi
I have tweetdeck. It was completely unmanageable otherwise...
Hmm. It kinda is, but go on. :)
roaaaar.
(not sure i have it down yet)
whats happening floks? mr and mrs C busy prepping for the big day tomorrow then?
:lol:
Can't be cross referencing everytime I get a request not recognised
What if they're new and not on the wiki yet...
Tweetdeck is good
Pretty much
Were discussing the Spa trip earlier, you coming?
tweetdeck is epic, espcially on the iphone
it's a good reason to put oneself in the list... :D
one of us is and one of us isn't. but i'm happy to take all the credit for doing nothing :)
spa trip, i could use expholiating!
lol
evening
I find it misses tweets on the iPhone
I use Twitterrific or EchoFon (formerly TwitterFon)
http://wiki.sidepodcast.com/page/Spa+Grand+Prix+2010
just realized forgot to hit reply!
ohh awesome, sounds good, who's idea was that?
That's not how you get a quote. You need to click on reply first, then click on the portion of text you want to quote.
Alison: FYI
@Nessa7o4m is a spammer
I'm spearheading it with Giggles & Amy
from nathan on facebook:
"Good luck with sidepodradio hope I can find time to listen. Will be in Singapore from Thursday hope to make some calls live from the track."
woohoo!
I'm very helpful all the same I feel :)
thank you!
Nice!
how is sidepodradio getting posted tomorrow as I fear i may not be able to catch the whole event :(
I am watching Casino Royale for the first time. James Bond films plug like Giggles
http://www.sidepodcast.com/livecommenting/
live streamed at first and then replays posted on... monday i would guess.
They wish they could plug as well as me... As was mentioned earlier even on the Sidepoddonation page there is a mention of my book which is available from Amazon ;)
Which one?
SLVAaron:
New to SPC guide here:
http://www.sidepodcast.com/about/new-to-sidepodcast-quick-start-guide/
cheers fella
Very optimistic! Aren't you going to want to curl up in a big ball before you deal with things like that?
yeah im not new, been listening on the quiet to these two from way back in 2006 i think
You have a book available on Amazon. Why have I never heard of it? Tell me more
remind me of that on monday.
The Daniel Craig one
ooooooh I went there. it's better than the Something of Boris anyways.
It's all true check http://thebookwiththemissingfirstpage.co.uk/ for details :)
all true. and despite my al-ki-hol riddled mind, i remember too :)
Welcome to the comments then!
The Chuck of Norris?
that reminds me what happened to the video before the race weekend, are you guys gonna go down that route again soon, the track previews were awesome, very BBC!
been here b4 but thanx!
New to the comments, I mean
Unless you've been major lurking :)
Either way, welcome!
teams cut back on footage this year. and what there is, isn't very good.
we have to ride it out until they have some money to throw around again ;)
i have yeah!
thanx
i tend to dip my toes in the live doohicky once in a while
I didn't mind Quantum but Casino is definitely superb
I thought they were both good.
The best thing about the second movie was the Adam and Joe theme tunes.
I want a Quantum of Solace,
No more than a Quantum,
I've heard they make big bags of Solace,
But I don't want 'em.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOH8_Vf_xIE
and
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6CoNUE5Zho
shame!
Yes!!! I was hoping someone knew them :D
They wanted to film the aircraft scene outside our hangar but we turned 'em down :lol:
You much of an Adam & Joe listener?
They are great
How come?
Didn't they film most of it at the Top Gear Test track anyway?
oh Mr C please apologise to the better half for me, i was gonna send in a couple of music shows for tomorrow, but time got the better of me!
Think they wanted to dig and blow crap up
no worries. there may well me a next time :)
Fish Called Wanda - scene with the roller coaster at the end - was filmed at my place
WHAT??
*be a next time.
Good evening good people. I have come upwith a few more ideas for sketches for WSLIIA... but still need some ideas for funny/interesting things which have happened in f1. Or scenarios which involve f1 people!
oops.
Hehehehe oh dear.... Maybe you should apologise for saying that as well :P
Not rollercoaster, steam roller :lol:
LOL
That naughty step must be real comfy :D
small sidepodradio filler done (voicemail)
Maybe 2011 when everything of the day is forgotten then.
Where should I send them to you? I came up with a couple but thought I might be a bit late so didn't mention it.
Nick, at what point do we get a heads up for this stuff??
I saw that as I donated for Sidepodradio earlier. I clicked and bought your book, it said there was only one left before and after I ordered :)
The book with the missing last order?
any noise on A Davidson getting back in the seat next season?
In other news, this’ll be my second X Factor-free weekend. What have I missed? {Comment #916}
I try to go X-Factor free every weekend. Due to my swimming club commitments I am usually successful. Unfortunately my mum had drifted off to sleep in front of the TV at teatime, so I had to put up with five minutes of bad singing before I could escape upstairs.
Next year I should try auditioning because I'm sure I'd be better than half the people on the show at singing...
Has it been deided where the extra money will go
Rob's Charity or SPC Hardware?
I'm happy with either
Plenty if you choose to believe the rumours ;)
Some rumours yes, maybe one of the new teams
hi nick
oh hell yeah, more green screen please!!!!!!!!!!
You are.
rumours?
I succeed every week on account of how crap it is
Bassano, do you mean this?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Se-abHY4NiQ
Nothing more
Google is your friend... probably
I vote it gets spent on an automated censoring machine that blocks out Mr C's face so he can walk around the room with ease....
i prefer bing
Yes, that's the Cul-de-sac, with our car park in the background
M$ nonsense ;)
in the Aside with Joe, who is Joe? bio somewhere perhaps?
We have it here - and a show called "Talent 2009". We have the dancing too.
Think just as bad, with the Swedish chef talking, but the only problem is that the judges are too nice!
http://joesaward.wordpress.com/
cheers
Is a great blog by the way, worth bookmarking
Awesome, received, thank you :)
Odd seeing that
Great film though
Maaybe there should be an intro at the start of each Aside giving a brief bio. The way the shows are now there is an assumption that everyone knows who he is.
good plan. can do.
Let them come here and find out
We'll explain it and point them towards GP+ :)
http://www.grandprixplus.com/
the fastest magazine in town.
That's a good idea, just a very brief little bit then at the end you could add something about going to GP+ to hear more from Joe.
it really is that
I really don't take advantage of this.... For some reason I tend to read them about a month later :P
a fair comment, to be fair sounds like a guy who knows alot about F1 but could be the internets version of Murray for all i know
Here... and GP+ :D
I hope to make it for (part of) the sidepodradio, but I really doubt I'll be here before 6 or 7 pm. Anyway, I hope everything go well and everybody enjoys it!
He's a brilliant F1 journo
leave them as comments here with hashtag #nick
I will be back tomorow evening to get ready for The show. No heads up! Working on notes now
Noooo you can't give them a chance to prepare!!!
is there an IRC chat room for the comments, would that not be easier?
Ooh, you rotter
That's not how it works on Mock The Week! ;)
Get them to write a comment here in code, then get them to DM you on twitter, how to crack the code
This is fast turning into sidepodplug. :)
Most people are older than 14 ;)
as im finding this doohickey to be a very fullscreen afair!
Is there a date, Brum isn’t it? {Comment #1213}
Saturday 14th January, 6pm, Teamworks Karting Birmingham. Further details in my blog.
Plus, Doohickey is the shizzle :D
imean asthetically speaking
Joe worked with Autosport for years and knows as much as anyone about F1. He attends every GP and has done for many years.
it should shrink. or there's:
http://www.sidepodcast.com/livecommenting/
which can be made even smaller.
I'll have you know I have a mental age of a 5 year old :P
Other commenting solutions are here
http://www.sidepodcast.com/about/new-to-sidepodcast-quick-start-guide/
trying that now
That's the only way to do it
why have I never seen Walk on the Wild Side on BBC1?! Just been watching clips on youtube... brilliant!!
You can just shrink the window you're using doohickey in and it shrinks to fit.
cough, wiki pm?
It's how it works on sidepodpanel
yeah i think i prefer realtime
Mr C:
Is it possible to omit the http://www. of links from display?
Not now obviously
Not always
Obviously I’d go to the show in the day, but I would prefer it if there was an option for a 2-day ticket. I still don’t know if one paddock pass would cover both days. {Comment #1248}
All Autosport tickets are for one day only. Sorry about that.
probably yup. remind me next week.
Also take a look at http://wiki.sidepodcast.com/page/Live+Commenting+Solutions for you Live Commenting solutions :)
I like the reason as to why the doohickey is female :D
yeyyy :) doohickey love, its the best one ;) :D
ahaha, ive never seen that before. i loves that
pooh a how hater in the m8x, kinda feel like i am missing the debate!
Best of luck to everyone tomorrow. Hope it all goes well..I hope no one gets too stressed!
Will do
Ooh, does that mean....? ;)
I might go and make nachos. It's nearly Sunday......
i have no idea what you just said??
Excuse me???
ditto?
it means i'll be tired until then.
Me neither :D
P.S. Doohickey is female, because she can handle comments across 10 threads simultaneously. LCLT is male, because he cannot. :lol:
bye people, see you tomorrow. visit to Hamburg's fisher market at 6:30am... :P
night!
ok. apparently we is all set. nothing left to do now except wait.
*drums finger impatiently*
1st useful internet ad ever!
House returns on Monday
[stateside]
Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
see ya guille.
Enjoy Guille
See ya
start now! lol
Pray??
we could do 24hrs?
Rehearsal? :P
Next year I should try auditioning because I’m sure I’d be better than half the people on the show at singing…
You are. {Comment #1519}
:blush:
hehe.
Right y'all...*clear throat*
I probably won't see ya tomorrow, because i won't get into my room until 4 and then will have to, ya know, be sociable ;) and then it may be a while before my internet gets set up...i have to use an ethernet cable, not wireless. I haven't used one of those in years!!
Anywho, hope sidepodradio goes ok, be nice to my show :) it's one of the last ones on and so it'll be pretty nervous ;)
Night all you lovely sidepoders
well if you have the material? y waste it?
It's the final countdown (de la lu lu, dela lu lu lu...)
Aren't you already commenting from the naughty step?
you're just asking to be naughty-stepped
I'm ready to go now
don't worry I may alter them. And the won't know which sketches they are getting. Here is the best place at this stage...
Mr C can Monza dissappear from the factbyte box now? :)
Is this payback for MFC?
!! :P
jon, have a brilliant day sir. all the bestest.
:D :D
oh yess.
fanking yourself :)
oog, good point. will do shortly.
Oh come on - do you really think I can keep their ISP running? That's why I invented Finland (and don't let that annoying Irishman tell you otherwise!)
(Hi Nick, bye Guille, bye Nick?)
Good stuff! I'm looking forward to it.
Best of luck Jon - and enjoy the start of a fantastic journey ;)
Good luck Jon.
Hey God. Long time no comment.
night
I'm wishing I hadn't agreed to do a live show :(
:D :D
I admit it is nice to look and nice to know the weather there but too much longer and I'll know all the corner names :)
Jon, have one heck of a good day! And have a good night sleep.
Singapore may be wet
I'm already exhausted from my week, how i'm gonna cope with the next week is beyond me! Sleep is going to be great!
Governement experts should be shot at birth. Some chief government health loony just said that parents should never let children touch animals on farms in case they get e coli. Maybe they shouldn't let them go upstairs in case they fall or don't let them eat in case they get poisoned.
Have fun Jon
Apparently I have an armchair coming tomorrow so I may have to miss a little bit. OR I could demonstrate live commenting with embedded video to the guy bringing it... it is a 'leftover' chair I agreed to take when I thought I was moving.
No signal major dookickey problems. Level
don't worry I may alter them. And the won't know which sketches they are getting. Here is the best place at this stage... I can't acess wiki
fun
Why? It will be fun. Have you volunteered anyone else to be on it tonight? That usually makes me feel better
err, embedded audio I guess
I stopped listening when they tried to ban conkers
Lets hope this one will be legit
My parting comment...
I'm not sure they are born Government experts....
You really don't like kids do you? ;)
This the 60, I mean Live call in show?
Have you done a panel? It'll probably be like that.
Previous comment was... we have a Joe hater in the mix.
They did...
Because now I can't just sit back and enjoy.... I'll get all stressed! At least we're doing it quite early :)
I am busy on Sundays now - in the mornings my inbox is full, in the afternoons I have to make sure that English guy wins (because I had a bet with St. Peter that he would be champion - and it's double or nothing because I put a tenner on Hamilton!)
You thought race fixing was easy, Mr Briatore? Try making sure that six drivers have inexplainable bad luck for eight races so your guy will win... Bringing out a safety car? Pah!
No!!
you.are.completely.wrong.nick.
sorry. but please take that back.
In your world maybe
I think he was saying he didn't know Joe's background. That's all
Oi!
British ones
thank you for my miracle fly.
I get on great with kids but they have to be allowed to try things. Banning contact with farm animals is insane. You sometimes get the impression these people think the human race evolved in a sterile environment
Ah! Um. Good luck!
Yes
right thats me done catch you all in the morn!
You could bribea a mr ecclestone to delete a few drivers.
Wait, do I need to put -god in the filter if I'm an atheist?
;)
Blame Steven?
looking forward to it. ta for stopping by ;)
We saw a fly drop out of the sky and land stone dead on the table today - it was really funny!
You don't need to be stressed. It will fly by. I am on for two and a half hours tomorrow and a lot of that is just me
Not in my house they didn't
it wouldn't be if it came back to life 4hrs later.
See ya dude
night
You need to be on one in the next series
(Bah, stupid browser)
I can't bribe Bernie because he already made a deal with the devil!
Good night
*ahem*
Hi Lukeh ;)
I didn't want to sit at a garden table for four hours!
Besides, how do you know it was the same fly???
Hmmmm
Tell me God doesn't use IE
See, that's why I'm agnostic
Yes you do. Its good fun.
i saw it die and i saw it come back to life.
Listen you. If you want your cuddly Brazilian to win, you'd better get on your knees, clasp your hands together and start asking nicely. YOU have a lot of making up to do, you naughty boy!
...hello? o.O
See. I knew you would agree
But what if it was a different one?
It was just resting.
I'm sure I don't really have a choice in the matter to be honest....
Maybe it was sleeping after trying to stay up to meet Heikki
I've said too much already
upside down... with it's legs in the air...
Maybe it was pining for the fjords
:D
:lol: :lol:
I love a volunteer.
Now volunteer someone to be on the show tomorrow
I am pining for the fjords :(
Hey
The lol's have stopped lolling
What gives?
Howdy campers
hey ya aide.
I keep trying to volunteer Lou, she just runs away!
RG? have you promised to come on yet?
Exactly. Everyone goes on a panel.
Hey
ohh chuff. again with the spelling.
hey ya adie.
Hi Adie
Lemme just see the kick off time and I'll come back to you.
:lol: test
:(
How are we call tonight. I see there's been some fly based drama afoot!
Ooooh, 14:35. I will be well into my football match by then.
And when did it change, I could swear it was later.
eh?
on friday i witnessed a miracle...
A fly re-born?
:lol:
Should be moving
Laughing, not smiling
It was moved a couple of weeks ago, to fill a gap in the schedule. It was felt people were more likely to phone in at a more sociable hour!
exactly!
LOU!!!!!!!
Proper drama.
We had mosquito-geddon here a few weeks ago. Amy (My better half, and lover of all things Vettel) left the window open and a light on. The ceiling was COVERED in mozzies and she went a bit mental with the fly spray.
ok, I do. maybe I read it wrong.
2:35 is when I do my sociable stuff outside though :D
ta.
By the way, I karate-chopped a wasp today and you know what noise I made?
That's right... "YUTAW-TAW!!!"
I like most of God's creatures
Mossies are not one of them
They are the work of Mosley
You could leave a voicemail comment for us
Yeah!!! Leave it now!!!
ok y'all. we gonna sleep. be cool and don't stay up too late, we need you in the morning.
*sidepodhugs all around*
You tell me when my psp aint charged and my phone is, somewhere.
Sleep well you two and see you tomorrow!
night monsieur c. looking forward to the big day now.
sidepodearlynight!
See ya Mr C
see ya tomorrow for the big day :)
sleep well both of ya!
:-D Wasps are weird though. When threatened they can spray a gel like blob of pheronomes that warn other wasps of danger. If you squash them that gets released and you can make it worse. (I'm all facts me)
:D
Goodnight. Tomorrow will be fun!
Good night both of you
That's the attitude
Gavin you're free tomorrow to come on our show? :)
Indeed they aren't. Someone decided to have a laugh when we were programming the life code, and then they blamed it on bugs in the software!
Which show?
Phone in at 14:35
I said sorry about the other thing. It's not loaded on doohickey. Major issues. No ideas for the show guys? :(
Ok. Adie out. Just a quick howdy tonight.
Will try to pop in tomorrow for the shenannigans.
Sleep tight, and don't let the bed bugs bite...
Yes of course. I shall be here for the whole thing, and my Skype is always on, so just call me ;)
It would've been deleted
See ya Adie
I think you should have Jake, DC and EJ on some pre-race coverage, possibly have a simulated grid-walk (definitely encountering Bernie....), improvise a debrief??
Okay thanks Gavin :D

How about 'World's worst team owner?'
Governement experts should be shot at birth. Some chief government health loony just said that parents should never let children touch animals on farms in case they get e coli. {Comment #1623}
Has this expert heard of hand sanitiser? Let alone water?
Singapore may be wet {Comment #1621}
Now that could be a problem...
Ooh, I didn't realise Singapore & Japan were back-yo-back races
Wicked!
*back-to-back
Back yo back!
Love it.
No, only six weeks till the season ends :(
Mmmmm I'm watching masterchef while eating nachos. My two favourite things.... I'm not sure Michel Roux Junior would approve of my creation however!
i saw it and replied.
am really going now, but doohickey is fine tonight nick.
True... :(
Speaking from a blogger's perspective, Boo!
I hate the off season :(
But for the spectator
Yay!
I agree.
Pluggy pluggy. Realllly late preview

You will enjoy it this year as I have many posts planned for my blog 'Making Up The Numbers' ;)
:D
Have you ever done posts that compare one driver over their career to see how consistant they are? I mean comparing consistancy throughout each GP across a driver's career? Is the data just not available?
Me too .. apparently I'm in for a winter of adding non-championship races to the site. I can't wait (not!)
Good! And I have a massive backlog of racing and podcasts to work through. I'd be amazed if we have time for that other project actually :-)
Ok. I have gotten WiFi to work! Sorry about the disruption before. I really like the gridwalk idea! Am working on something with the team owner idea too :)
It will be when I get a FORIX account ;)
That is a lot of work though - Think how many races that would need for just one driver - you are looking at analysing a thousand data points!
I was thinking of choosing a selection of races probably.... I think all of them might be asking a bit too much! Maybe even just comparing one driver over the course of a season? Have you tried something like that?
