Uncle Dan Report #15: Obama, McCain, plus a review of 'The Dark Knight'

2008-07-23T09:35:00.002-04:00

UDR#15

Again, thanks to Abu Snookums for sitting in on episode 14. Also, we discuss:

3 reporters for Obama, 1 for McCain? Fine by me. McCain is old news.
Michael Savage is a dangerous idiot, and now he is after autistic people.
Who is worse, Michael Savage and his ilk, or those who listen to him?
Finally, thoughts on 'The Dark Knight', great film, and it almost lives up to the hype-unlike most over-hyped movies! Plus (like most other folks online), a comparison with the other 'Batmen.'
E-mail me and let me know if the power went out in your theater when you saw the movie.

Maybe a bit heavy on the Batman stuff, and light on politics.

Uncle Dan Report #14: Abu Snookums sits in

2008-07-17T12:27:00.002-04:00

UDR#14

Abu Snookums and I cover a wide range of topics:

Abu Snookums took his young'uns to the fair, and what happened to the balloon?
We talk about the cover of The New Yorker
Also, Jesse Jackson
plus, much much more!

This is a long one, so be patient. And, for more Uncle Dan and Abu Snookums, go check out Radio WC.

Uncle Dan Report #13: Jesse Helms Dead; world a Better Place

2008-07-08T22:36:00.002-04:00

UDR#13

Topics for this, the unlucky 13th episode include:

Uncle Dan is pissed off at the world and his lame-ass summer job.
Other news items are discussed briefly
Jesse Helms, the right-wing senator from Hell, has finally died-and it's not the first time God has tried to kill him.
If it weren't for him living in America, he probably would have been assassinated.

And be sure to listen to the end (especially you right-wingers) for a fun activity you can do just for fun!

Uncle Dan Report #12: Sirius Left, Bjork, Tibet, China, the list goes on and on...

2008-07-03T22:19:00.002-04:00

UDR#12

The lovely Icelandic singer Bjork opens the special July 4th episode, topics include:

Is it time to Declare Independence all over again?
Sirius Left is the BEST commercial left-wing radio there is.
Bjork pisses off China...who cares?
Don't worry about the Middle-East, China is going to be the super-power of the future.

Uncle Dan Report #11: Ralph Nader, Ron Paul, Uncle Dan is demoralized by the "Suburbanization" of the area

2008-06-28T22:43:00.002-04:00

UDR#11

Different things discussed on this episode:

Obama wants to assassinate child rapists? Hmmmmm. Some ruminations on child-rape included.
A minute or two on Ron Paul: independent thinker-good, Libertarian-not so good.
Poor Ralph Nader-I agree with almost EVERYTHING he says, but the system is such that he has no chance. Possibly he could have started smaller instead of running for President.
Uncle Dan's demoralizing search for a Bjork CD. It was finally obtained, but the voyage was trying indeed.

Uncle Dan Report #10: George Carlin Dead; America goes to Hell

2008-06-24T22:38:00.002-04:00

UDR#10

Mostly stories and reflections on George Carlin, who is more of a cultural icon than Tim Russert, specifically:

A great cold-open that has less in common with Ron Paul than his supporters would have you think (It came from a Ron Paul video montage)
George Carlin covered a lot of ground in comedy, as both Bill Hicks, and Jerry Seinfeld, plus others, can lay claim to Carlin as an influence.
Although I didn't know it at the time, when I was a child I learned about masturbation from Carlin, which would come in quite handy later on.
Amazingly, Rush Limbaugh claimed Carlin as a kindred spirit-what a hoot!
Other stuff about George Carlin.
Finally, is America going to Hell?

And, if you listen all the way to the end, you'll find out my interesting (and yes, a bit sexist) take on Michelle Obama. You'll need to listen to the ENTIRE episode to find out.

Uncle Dan Report #9: More Bush crap, Goetta, and a mess of other stuff

2008-06-20T23:36:00.002-04:00

UDR#9

Different things in this, the 9th episode:

Uncle Dan apologizes for mis-numbering episodes.
Uncle Dan has started reading "What's the Matter with Kansas?"
The right-wing "Culture War" is what is keeping their party together.
Goetta, what it is, plus, the enduring question: Is goetta considered a sausage?
George Bush interviewed on Sky News...what an idiot, but we already know that.

Uncle Dan Report #8: Remembering "Remembering Tim Russert"

2008-06-15T22:58:00.002-04:00

UDR#8

Yes, yet another podcast about Tim Russert, and more!

But first, the nasty weather in Uncle Dan's neighborhood and all over the country is raining havoc everywhere.
Dying of a sudden cardiac arrest is scary, I'll try to walk more, and maybe not eat as much crap food.
In our time of mourning, we still can't forget that Russert gave Cheney softball questions before the Iraq war started.
As well as putting the nail in the coffin of Dennis Kucinich.

I wanted to go on longer, but the storm was a-comin' and I wanted to make sure the episode wasn't lost

Uncle Dan Report #7: The Anal Leakage Episode

2008-06-12T23:47:00.002-04:00

UDR#7

Actually, the anal leakage portion just kinda slips out at the end...other topics include:

A bit of a recap of the stormy journey of Uncle Dan's Chicago trip
Cicada's have attacked southwestern Ohio in near Biblical proportions-and are especially annoying this year. BONUS: Uncle Dan's recreation of their sound.
The Supreme Court remembers that, yes, there is a Constitution.
John McCain is a phony.
Iran, Israel, and last, but not least, anal leakage!

Uncle Dan Report #6: Michael Savage, Obama, and all the typical nonesense

2008-06-06T22:50:00.002-04:00

UDR#6

Make sure you all donate your fair share to the Uncle Dan Report, also:

Who is worse, Michael Savage or Rush Limbaugh?
What happened with Obama and Clinton in their secret meeting? Sounds kinda sexy.
Some thoughts on "Iron Man", a fine film, and a bit better than the usual summer crap!
I whine about the gas prices and driving to Chicago

And the show ends with a special song by my friend Bob Goode, and since everyone has the blues, I figured I'd go to the Blues Fest in Chicago this weekend.

Uncle Dan Report #5: Nobody screws things up like the Democratic Party

2008-06-02T23:33:00.002-04:00

UDR#5

I can't help but fear, with past experience, that the Democratic Party is going to completely screw up what should be a cake-walk through this election.

Also, a short tribute to the late great Bo Diddley, and the inventor of the Pringles tube.

And, was that crazy lady at the Democratic meeting Lynne Samuels??

This is a short one, so it won't be too much trouble to listen.

Uncle Dan Report #4: Scott McLellan's book, Sirius Radio, and general ranting

2008-05-30T22:11:00.002-04:00

UDR#4

I was in a bit of a grumpy mood tonight, so there is much ranting about:

Hillary can't win, so just give it up already
Us white folks ARE the privileged ones, and Affirmative Action levels the playing field just a bit...and Obama's new preacher is absolutely right! And I have proof!
I'm curious as to the motivation for Scott McClellan's book, the timing, and NOW, that all of the damage has been DONE is a FINE TIME to come up with a guilty conscious you evil sack of crap!
The anti-intellectualism in this country pisses me off. Why do American's hate smart people?
Even though I like Obama-a female president would have it's advantages.
I bitch about the gas prices, and driving to Chicago next week.

Well, there's more, but you'll have to listen

Uncle Dan Report #2: Liz Trotta meets Indiana Jones

2008-05-26T23:23:00.002-04:00

UDR#3

First of all, this guy's review of the new Indiana Jones movie is amazing! Plus, for your listening pleasure, we provide the following:

Liz Trotta's comments regarding the assassination of Barack Obama are REALLY REALLY REALLY inexcusable, and the dried-up whore's HALF-ASSED apology is really lame, and does no good whatsoever. Maybe Obama should threaten to kill her, or her family.
Maybe Michelle Obama would even make a better president than her husband. Michelle Obama for President!
My review of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. I wasn't quite as upset as the guy who gave the review linked above-but it definitely fell short. I'm still not sure if it was as good as 'Temple of Doom," or the worst one of all.

So, let's hope that at the very least Liz Trotta gets fired this week. I won't hold out too much hope for Michelle announcing her candidacy for president.

Uncle Dan Report #2: Hillary/RFK assassination comment

2008-05-24T01:07:00.003-04:00

UDR#2

Well, I had originally not wanted to spend a bunch of time on the primary stuff, but Hillary's statement regarding the RFK assassination broke my rule!

A few comments on what Hillary Clinton said.
Some comments on the comments of Keith Obermann regarding Hillary's comments.
Plus, Robert Byrd is the oldest human being alive...and could make a good VP for Barack???

Hopefully next time it won't be a regurgitation of the news shows. and, by the next episode we will know the ramifications of HRC's dumb statement.
