Highlights from this week's episode include:

• I turned some clips of my nephew trying to talk to Mr. Microphone into an ID for the show. One listener thought he was saying Michael Phelps instead.


• The long lost quarter has been found.


• Our Canadian neighbors like to flavor barbecue and spaghetti sauces with beer. Two listeners describe the concoction.


• Let's all go huggin and chalkin in the guise of crazed 1947 dancers.


• We take Ed out of his drawer so he can read to us about Love Land, China's newest theme park.


• We play some wind-laden recordings from a Rivers West gig this past Wednesday in front of the Denton County court house.


• Despite my substancial sunburn from that day, I can still gloat that there are members of my family who burn more quickly, and are consequently paler, than me.


• I mess around with a ringtone I made earlier this week in Sound Forge. The result is certainly unusual.


• We then take a recording of my nephew and alter the size of his head along with the pitch of his voice.


• Since we had a very full house tonight, I next take the microphone around the first floor to let you hear a snapshot of the festive atmosphere.


• What do shoes and lonely beers have in common?


• The first Academy Awards were handed out today in 1929. Monty Python helps us mark the event.


• Hear a difficult-to-understand limeric.


• Learn more about the swivel chair I want to destroy.


• Finally, who, or what, is the love-matic grandpa?

That wraps it up for this week. I'm headed north for a couple of weeks, so Blart Radio's schedule may be a bit lopsided while I'm away. Stay tuned to the TBRN website and our usual messengers to learn when we will next be on the air. See you next time.
