GC061 — Best Darn Government Money Can Buy
September 23rd, 2010GC060 — 60th Birthday Geezercast
June 3rd, 2010Hey! It’s my 60th birthday today AND this is the 60th Geezercast. How ’bout that? This one is really short — just a 5 minute intro to a new tune that I built to learn about “slicing” — a musical technique that Robert Perry (son of Marcie’s cousin Joan Perry) taught me about when he came to visit a month or so ago.

GC059 — GeezerCast Returns
May 9th, 2010Yep. Got all the hardware troubles fixed — just in time for a new crop of economic troubles to GeezerCast about. Topics include weird US stock-market gyrations, weird Greek currency gyrations and weird political gyrations. Since GeezerCasts are really just a chronicle of weird events for my unborn grandchildren, it looks like the pace may pick up.

GC055 — Cyberwar and reality TV
August 2nd, 2009Huh. Pretty short interval between Geezercasts here. But Marcie and I had a couple pretty interesting conversations on the Morning Walk and I thought I’d share them. One is about cyber-war and the other one is about how people are treated on reality TV shows. You’ll have to listen to hear how that all goes together.

GC054 — High Frequency Trading and Hearing Aids
July 26th, 2009I know, it’s a weird combination of topics, but I’m taking a breather from writing Broadband Task Force report-drafts and that’s what’s caught my fancy.

GC053 — Invaders and elections
July 5th, 2009Marcie and I are off to fight prairie-invaders today so there’s a little about that, and then there’s commentary about Al Franken’s arrival as our second Senator (with a dash of Sarah Palen).
