are you seriously going to advertise every single episode of your podcast? a few introductory ones was fine to get the word out but now you're resorting to promoting fecal jokes. wow. with the exception of this comment, no one replies to your posts and the last discussion i've seen you take part in was your comment to neil's post about r.e.m. where you so eloquently stated "r.e.m.s.u.x". i'm all about free speech on this board and the sharing of many ideas, but don't abuse it and dumb it down.

You're right. Don't want to dumb things down around here. I need to stay at the high level of great, recent, high-brow posts like "fuckabee".

What I find obnoxious is the egregious promotion. OK, OK, we get it. There's a podcast. But is PDD a free ad forum?

Fuckabee, fuckabee!

I fuck bees all the time.

I think free promotion for one-time, or annual/biannual events is great, but near weekly, not so much. PDD does have a calendar you could stick it on.

...

I agree with edgeways--post these announcments to the calendar, those that care about your podcast will see them there, the rest of us wont be bothered.

Man: You sit here, dear.
Wife: All right.
Man: Morning!
Waitress: Morning!
Man: Well, what've you got?
Waitress: Well, there's egg and bacon; egg sausage and bacon; egg and spam; egg bacon and spam; egg bacon sausage and spam; spam bacon sausage and spam; spam egg spam spam bacon and spam; spam sausage spam spam bacon spam tomato and spam;
Vikings: Spam spam spam spam...
Waitress: ...spam spam spam egg and spam; spam spam spam spam spam spam baked beans spam spam spam...
Vikings: Spam! Lovely spam! Lovely spam!
Waitress: ...or Lobster Thermidor a Crevette with a mornay sauce served in a Provencale manner with shallots and aubergines garnished with truffle pate, brandy and with a fried egg on top and spam.
Wife: Have you got anything without spam?
Waitress: Well, there's spam egg sausage and spam, that's not got much spam in it.
Wife: I don't want ANY spam!
Man: Why can't she have egg bacon spam and sausage?
Wife: THAT'S got spam in it!
Man: Hasn't got as much spam in it as spam egg sausage and spam, has it?
Vikings: Spam spam spam spam... (Crescendo through next few lines...)
Wife: Could you do the egg bacon spam and sausage without the spam then?
Waitress: Urgghh!
Wife: What do you mean 'Urgghh'? I don't like spam!
Vikings: Lovely spam! Wonderful spam!
Waitress: Shut up!
Vikings: Lovely spam! Wonderful spam!
Waitress: Shut up! (Vikings stop) Bloody Vikings! You can't have egg bacon spam and sausage without the spam.
Wife: I don't like spam!
Man: Sshh, dear, don't cause a fuss. I'll have your spam. I love it. I'm having spam spam spam spam spam spam spam beaked beans spam spam spam and spam!
Vikings: Spam spam spam spam. Lovely spam! Wonderful spam!
Waitress: Shut up!! Baked beans are off.
Man: Well could I have her spam instead of the baked beans then?
Waitress: You mean spam spam spam spam spam spam... (but it is too late and the Vikings drown her words)
Vikings: (Singing elaborately...) Spam spam spam spam. Lovely spam! Wonderful spam! Spam spa-a-a-a-a-am spam spa-a-a-a-a-am spam. Lovely spam! Lovely spam! Lovely spam! Lovely spam! Lovely spam! Spam spam spam spam!

I wouldn't be too quick to cast stones, zra. You treat PDD like it's your own personal MySpace page, and a lot of us are pretty damn tired of it.

like who?

Technically, it was Suck-a-Bee (re: I'm Gonna Git You Sucka).

I am all for shill multi-postings, BTW. Lookit all these suckers are talking about it..

And I swear I know that Ashley!

oh, no. someone doesn't like me. what am I to do?

see, anti, here's where the premise of your entire post holds about as much water as a bucket with a hole in it.

If someone I actually know here has a problem with the content and frequency of what I post, they would have no problem taking me to task for it. I'd expect it actually..from a few regulars here...and as such I respect them for it. It's kind of my social barometer. And it has happened, believe me.

I know I'm abrasive. I know I'm annoying. I also know that I don't give a shit what you think. You either like me, or you don't. Makes no difference to me.

If you're thinking I'm an easy mark, think again. Now, either put up or shut up, because you're wasting my time.

Actually, it has nothing to do with you being abrasive or annoying. It has to do with you posting inside jokes to your friends, commenting on EVERYTHING whether you have anything to say or not, and posting useless pictures you stole from some other website, without any commentary or relevance.

Wasting your time? You waste the time of all of us who come to this site looking for info about shows, happenings in Duluth, discussions about local issues, etc. Your posts are seldom if ever locally relevant. In fact, I don't even know why the hell you post the things you do.

The reason no one else says what I'm saying now is because this is a polite website. Normally, I'm one of the polite lurkers who just likes to read the site, too.

It's a shame that the only people you'll listen to are the ones you know. This isn't a site for you and your friends to chat with each other. Do that on MySpace.

Blog fighting is kind of like slap fighting.

Would this be a good time to initiate a Gauntlet run?

Well, Vicarious, you laid down the gauntlet but you didn't run with it! GAUNTLET!

I find it curious that after zra posted his spam comment he gets flamed by someone who has never posted here before.

Zra is right. Danny’s posts are spam, and like most spam they advertise something of dubious or no value. Have any of you folks listened to one Danny’s podcasts? I can’t imagine how anyone could find them entertaining. You would have to be a Fox News fan with a high tolerance for a lack of talent to find DDD funny. I am sure the idiots over at the DCB find Danny hilarious.

Oh, Vicarious, you were thwarted too early by DEEDEE! WOo!GAUNTLET!

See what happens when the non-professionals try to police the blog? I may have to come out of retirement. I was actually thinking of coming out because of DDD anyways, but I was afraid that if I did, I would give him the one thing that he wants, attention. So I did nothing and he still got the attention he craves. Let me see if I can find where I put my badge.....

oh shit, it's the fuzz!

I believe Monty Python has relevance AND substance

Last time I checked, the cyber stalking trolls over at DCB were screaming that I have a big butt. I am sure they do find Danny really hilarious, DDD is about their level of toilet humor, complete with scatological references. God help us, these people are walking around this city? It's made me keep my doors locked.

zra for president!

umm, that's Ezradent.

As one who knows Zra pretty well, please don't encourage this presidential campaign! He's hard enough to live with already! ;)

I'm not sure I get how zra is treating PDD as his own personal myspace page. I just looked at all the posts currently up. Of the 30 of them 0 of them were authored by zra. That would mean that zra has, over the last week, had a posting rate of 0% and authored zero thirtieths of all the posts.

Not sure those statistics back up the allegation.

Comment on DDD podcast posted by Nater at RedandNater.com:

To describe this show as crummy proves that you lack a working knowledge of the definition of the word crummy.

Your show is far from crummy. More apt descriptors would be. "mind-numbingly banal", "horrifically bad". or "less favorable than a meth-fueled child-molester being set loose in a daycare with a backpack full of juice-boxes and battery-powered tools of anal destruction."

Really. The show is not even a little bit funny. I don't know who you are, and yet still I am embarrassed for the fact that you have spent the time you have putting these weekly dung-heaps together.

I'm all for people giving it a shot and putting their creative works out there. But with that comes the chance for others to critique their work. Since you have chosen to use my board to advertise your putrid ooze of a show, I feel it my duty to advise you on how to proceed. My advice is that you wait until either you become funnier, or the world's standards degenerate to such a place that a show like this can pass as funny. In either case, it may be a while.

Nater! ROFLAO!

But like a 5-fatality car accident, I had to go to DDD for a listen. Ruthless criticism in order and Open Season, because the dude is promoting listening to it on this board. So I like a sheep to slaughter, I followed. I listened.

Oh My. God. Omigod. God, Oh My. My God. Oh. Absolutely STUNNED. Truly speechless. Spectacularly bad. The Steve Cannon-esque bit of using multiple personalities with bad voices is simply quite awful, too. btw: the nasal quality throughout is reminiscent of a Milwaukee native with 3 clothespins on his nose who ran out of Neosynephrine. I especially like the rapid-fire utterance, "neh-neh-neh-neh-neh" to convey a mind perusing over notes or a newspaper; used as a truly bad bridging mechanism for the changing of topics.

With that in mind, NEH-NEH-NEH-NEH-NEH.

Discussion? Specifically, HOW do individuals get the notion, no, HOW DO THEY EVEN THINK that their talents are worthwhile, much less, we'd like to learn their opinions? Amazing. Granted, a podcast is not a broadcast; however, this creator honestly believes the podcast's good or clever, otherwise he wouldn't post here. What part of the double-helix pairings on a strand of DNA haywires a guy to think he's creating laugh-worthy materials that so catogorically awful? But hey! There's a part of me that admires

Aren't zra and in.dog the same person? I count three posts.

lol...looks like i'm outing my alter-alter (or is that alter-alter-alter...wait...one, two, thr...nevermind) ego here, but i think he's referring to in.dog.

if the guy's as frequent of a visitor as he claims, then he really ought to be clued in to the fact that inside jokes and chats with friends are about 90% of PDD's content...

I'm still waiting to hear about all these "other" people who're upset because I post too much...who are the "a lot of us" that're "sick" of my presence.

if you don't get the joke then, man...you're beyond help. the Wave comes out on Thursdays.

So, does that mean my podcast is -not- banal and irrelevant? Or should I absent myself, and count myself lucky?
