Here we are! Back again! Dexter steps out for the episode, but... hold on... let me cue it up...

INTRODUCING.... THE FILL-IN-IEST FILL-IN CO-HOST TO EVER CO-HOST A PODCAST... THE TALL... THE FUNNY-NAMED....

Matt Goshey. We call him Goshey.

We talk about duct tape, the logistics of living a video game, introduce a new segment called "Things That Are Better in Concept," fail at a new segment called "Things That Are Better in Concept," and lots more. Also, we have a unique Moment with Mark, and we pick out our s'mores to compete in the Re-Invention of the S'more contest! Or whatever it is.

Recurring blog segment!!! HA! How about THAT?

Some sites we've enjoyed over the past week:

http://www.westchesterrockcity.com/ - On our show, we like to show off and support the best of the local music in the area. In this spirit, we thought we'd share with you THIS awesome site of punk rock from West Chester, PA (our homebase) past. Very new, but really nice-looking site with some awesome music on it. Interesting if you know the area or if you enjoy local music/punk rock.

http://www.traipse.com/thing_in_a_jar/ - This is Awesome.


http://warrocketajax.com/ - Punching strong right out of the gate, this new podcast is really delightful. If you like OUR show, this is a great one to check out.

http://aliceandkev.wordpress.com/ - A captivating, emotional, moving, and very well-written story about a homeless girl and her father who live in a park in the middle of a nice suburban neighborhood. Also, they live in Sims Two. It's told serially through blog posts and (while I'm late on this, and it stopped updating at some point, and doesn't show much hope of coming back...) what is there is really really great.

We're Not Dead!

...but we ARE sorry. We haven't posted an episode, updated the blog, posted on the forum, or etc. in a while. It all started when we recorded an episode just as Matt (host, editor, and producer of the show) got a job (thats busiest time is Back To School) and so we were initially going to be a little late, but THEN Matt got so sick that, were he to host the show, he would just have been screeching nonsense and whining at people. And VERY FEW people want to hear that. Hospitals were involved. Steroids and Antibiotics. He's fine now, don't worry, but it DID set the show back a little. So, unfortunately, the show had to be put on hold for a few weeks. But we have one episode in editting NOW and we WILL be back to our recording schedule this week.

So sorry, listeners. We're not going away. We're just getting warmed up.

Stay Tuned.

Lovefest bonus content: More Live videos (of love)

Voss does this thing sometimes live where he hands out index cards and has people write words on them. He then does a freestyle using the words from the cards, which he has not seen. You may recognize yours truly handing him the cards.




Later on in the evening Voss joined The Spotted Atrocious on stage for a song.

Lovefest bonus content: Live videos(of love)

Here's a video from the live show of the song "Hit that shit."




And here's a video by the headliners: The Spotted Atrocious, who were awesome.



Also as a super extra bonus content, here is a song that The Keen One posted on The Spotted Atrocious' myspace, which is a TSA song that she wrote a rap verse for. Check it out, it is awesome: The Spotted Keen One

This episode could ONLY be called: Lovefest (of Love!) We went so far over time because we had so many great people on that are awesome. Alex Pearlman joins us for the majority of the show to say goodbye to the old Everything is Action studios. Rising hip-hop artist The Keen One talks to us about her career and her new album "Getaway," featuring a ton of audio from her recent Philadelphia show that she was gracious enough to let us record and distribute here, exclusively, for you. Long-time EiW fan Christina Lengyel stops by to talk about her new book, Happening Through with Kyle and guest interviewer Matt Goshey. We finally get around to answering your listener emails, and they're GREAT! (keep em coming and we'll do those segments more often!) Also, a Moment with Mark where he talks about his new poetry podcast (http://homilyandtoast.podbean.com/) which DEFINITELY deserves a listen. All that and more, on this love-tacular episode of Everything is Wonderful.

Saturday Links!

Some sites we've enjoyed over the past week:

http://beatonna.livejournal.com/ - Linked to an episode of our show, so I checked it out; Very enjoyable webcomic. Funny, smart, original. Certainly worth checking out.

http://www.avoidthisjob.com/ - Found this on comedian Paul F. Tompkins Twitter. Hilariously funny website, illuminating or mocking the most heinous job offers to be found on the internet.

http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/ - Incredibly interesting website. Full of a bunch of amazing articles and features, if you ignore the attention-draws and such... I was lead to this site through this article.

http://www.thedreamlandchronicles.com/ - Call me lame, but I'm really REALLY enjoying this series. I read all 900+ pages the day I found it and... it's awesome. Light, fun, all-ages entertainment in a true way. (didn't dig the 3D art style at first, but ended up loving it before the first "issue" was over)
