The last few weeks have been filled with playing around in the audio arena, making ads for websites and podcasts that I am a fan of and wish to promote to have the show feel a little more natural for breaks and with the soon to be done Live broadcasting of the show while it is being recorded. I have about 3 ads done so far but I will post one here for the awesome blog, The Grass Is Leena. and at the same time, check this ad out that will be playing during the podcast this week. There are a few more but I will unveil them during the show on the unsuspecting peoples here with me.

I am also in the process of remaking the site with the help of a few friends so if links and items are not working, please be patient and just comment on it or e-mail me at thescarecrow@overindulgence.net and I’ll try my best to fix it.

Looking forward to opening conversation with you all at the end of this week via podcast form.

The Scarecrow

Although, before I was reduced to a sniveling pile of flesh in bed, hopped up on tablets. I managed to pull a few of the offcuts from previous sketches and podcasts and have edited them and placed them in the brand new blue button above called “Behind the Scenes” so feel free to check it out. After every episode, We will be posting any cock ups and comments made during the mic checks and warm up.

As for the Weddingcast, Seeing as I am still sick, the record has been canceled until Friday afternoon after the wedding. One issue being is that there is a drinks tab at the lunch and Hawky and Korthal so be warned that the podcast may be a little more loose than usual.

P.S. What he means by “loose” is that i will have a hard time finding the floor i’m going to attempt to be so blind drunk.. It’s not often that two of your closest friends get married, on the same day, to eachother. Not to mention one of my other close friends Coz will be joining us all the way down from the great city of Melbournia, so i’ll have even more of a reason to celebrate! Stay tuned for possibly our most random and unorganised podcast to date, it will be a first for all of us because i sure as fuck wont remember doing it. -Hawky

UPDATED

After my flu run in (thank you to everyone who wished me better health) I am on the bounce back and am feeling a whole lot better. I caught up with the boys tonight and we are recording the weddingcast this Thursday night (2 nights time at time of typing) and we are going to answer all the questions that people threw our way for the feedback-cast and any new ones that you can think up before we record (leave them here as a comment or mail them to Podcast@overindulgence.net ) along with a wrap up of how the wedding went and the party that reduced me to a flu ridden sack of crap. We also have some pictures that we may be able to share, it all depends on what I and the newly minted Mrs Scarecrow wish to put up here. We are all chomping at the bit to sit down and record another episode.
The Scarecrow – 13/04/2010 update.

*Phone ringing*

Scarecrow – “Scarecrow here”

Yug – “Hey man, We still on for the podcast tomorrow night?”

Scarecrow – “Yep, head over at between 7 and 7:30 tomorrow, I’m doing a curry and we have your bottle of Jack Daniels still here”

Yug – “AWESOME! I love that curry! oh yeah, Yahtzee and I are hanging out, do you mind if he comes along?”

Scarecrow – “No problem at all, I’m doing enough food for 5 people and we have a extra mic if he wants in”

Yug – “Cool baby, I’ll see you tomorrow night”

Scarecrow – “Right, see you then, bye”

Yug – “Bye”

*Phone hang up*

So, sorry to anyone wanting details on how to get Yahtzee on their podcast. He moves and works in mysterious ways but a big thanks again to Yug and Yahtzee for sitting in on the podcast. Aeternum managed to grab a few photos of us. Many of them have someone pulling a face so here are two nice pics from 100 minutes of recording.

You can click on the photos to see the full sized variables. Make sure to let us know what you think by dropping us a mail at Podcasts@overindulgence.net or just click on behind the site in the title bar to find our individual e-mail addresses.

Cheers.

The boys sitting around, recording comedy gold! L to R. Yug, Hawky, Yahtzee (Scarecrow not in frame)

Again, another pic where Scarecrow manages to dive out of frame at the last moment.

Click here for the photos, or here for more…..                      You could also click here for another lot of them!

We are also gearing up for a massive opening at the Mana bar for the 20th of March. Click here to check out the details for the opening. If you are in Brisbane, drop on down from midday as Aeternum and myself will be there helping with the opening. I will also be recording chats with people as they are waiting. Go check it out as this project has been a wonderful experience to work on and I know that everyone is going to love it.

Thanks for all the nice comments on the Grovelcast. Hawky and I felt terrible about just recording a hour.

If you enjoyed the new intro and outro music, the track is called ‘Balrog Boogie’ by Diablo Swing Orchestra. Check out there site at www.Diabloswing.com and I can highly recommend their music. Great tracks and a pace that is so damn catchy.

Until tomorrow night
The Scarecrow
