Breakfast Makes...Podcast???




Last night, Jim and I decided to record the first official Breakfast Makes Perfect podcast. The original idea behind Breakfast Makes Perfect was that it was going to be a podcast--with the articles, essays, what-have-you acting as nice, little companion pieces to the podcast. Obviously, writing articles is a lot easier than getting people together and structuring a podcast, pressing record and hoping everyone is funny enough to make the podcast worth listening to. So, we opted for articles instead.

But last night, because we were in the podcast-ing mood, having been pricked by the podcast bug, which then harbored in our asses, spawning an entire colony of podcast drones, transmitting messages to our brains, and deluding us into thinking we're funny and/or interesting enough to say things that people want to hear, we decided to record.

Blogger won't let us upload an MP3, so, instead, you get this...the audio played over a static image that I had saved on my computer. We'll call it a "video" (to make the Blogger Gods happy), but you, the imaginary Breakfast Makes Perfect fanbase, know what it really is: a shitty attempt at a podcast.

Our special guest on the podcast is my downstairs neighbor, Josh the Juggalo, or, as he asked us to refer to him: "Scrubby". I've known Josh for a couple years now and, because Matt (the Breakfast God Himself!), is out of town on big-boy business, we asked Josh to be our guest.

As a disclaimer, I should point out that the views expressed in this podcast do not necessarily reflect my own or Jim's--even if he's the one expressing them. Jim was drunk--and got progressively more so throughout the recording of the podcast--so anything he said doesn't really count because, as everyone knows, what you do whilst under the influence of the hooch-demon doesn't count, which is why drunk-drivers are never prosecuted--because they're all: "But Judge, I was drunk. 'Drunk Me' mowed down that fleet of orphans selling expired coupons on a seedy street corner." And the Judge is like: "Damn it, I guess we have to excuse this case. This guy knows the law." Basically.

Also, depending on what kind of response this gets, we'll try to do this whole podcast thing once a month or so and make it a regular feature.

So...ENJOY!
