Have no fear, we will be wrecking it in the very near future, just haven’t decided which method of demolition we will be using.

I miss the old website. This is like a house with freshly painted white walls and no furniture.

So, today I was WANCing in front of my computer. Usually I WANC at work or in the car.

You’d think that I could find something better to do but I still WANC anyway. Now I found out that I can WANC with bacon: http://bacolicio.us/http://www.wearenotcool.org/

Unfortunately I more or less have to agree with the Antiwanc on this. The quality wasn’t great (though you should have heard the mess before editing).

The webiste redesign isn’t actually anywhere near done, this was just a generic config thrown out so we would at least have a functioning website again.

Some quality issues I’m not sure what to do about. Recording with people Skyping in has general quality issues as Skype tends to fade in and out and cause weird sound artifacts as packets traverse the tubes of the interweb.

It also causes problems with us talking over each other. I think that will improve with time as we get use to it.

Improving our quality is a goal we have, though I think it will be a gradual process, hopefully enough people will be willing to hang on for the long haul.

If not, well at least we are amusing ourselves…

Did you roofie Anne and LadyU?

Have they been drinking the WANC Kool-Aid? (which sounds more perverted than I intended)

The first half of the podcast was a bit of a mess but I admit it did pick up. Come on guys. Quality, not quantity.

I am impressed that you managed to hit the 2 week goal (pretty much). I’m sure I’ll be able to throw a wrench in somewhere and send you on another extended podcast vacation.

And I’m sure that somehow the site redesign was all intended to get rid of me. Didn’t work Jason. And yes, I think this song is about me. Mwaaa Haa Haa!

Also, you’ll never get another interview if you keep putting out crap like that.

If only there were a way to post the voiceline # in the comments section…

Thanks for listening and thanks for the comments.

Yes I do need the voicemail number back up on the sidebar, and a lot of other things.

After recreating the web site I haven’t finished configuring it. Kind of waiting to select the theme we are going to use in the long run before making all the changes.

Working on a final paper for a class at the moment though, so not likely to get to that until sometime next week.

Of course we need to get the voiceline back up on the sidebar…

Anne:
Awkward pauses were edited through the magic of Jason.

ladyumbra:
I second the motion on using the voicemail line.

Reminder to everyone:
Feel free to use the voicemail line, or record something and email us. It can be a comment, maybe a story that you’ve seen, your thoughts on a movie or a tv show, suggestions for guests. The more voices we can add to the team, whether they’re voicemails, emails, or you as a guest, the more this becomes a community … which was one of our goals for our podcast.

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Mike

Thank you Anne good to know we haven’t lost our original fan.

Ladyumbra I have to disagree. I say “S” words just fine, everyone else just listens wrong!

Yes we do need a girl on the show. Are you offering to call in sometimes?

I mean seriously folks we have a voiceline but it sits there all by itself over in the corner all sad and lonely feeling like afailure because no one ever uses it…
