Trying out a new shorter format with a pair of rants. First up, that awful smell in New York City today. Next, the Dems take over the House of Representatives and it will (unfortunately) be business as usual. - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #53 (17mb)

Must end the year (and maybe the podcast altogether) with a rant. It’s been an awfully crappy end of the year. I had a flood in my apartment and am getting the shaft from my condo association. Cingular wireless won’t let me buy a new phone (the Samsung Blackjack) unless I fork over $25 more [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #52 (20mb)

Where have you gone Michael Richards? Not a question that too many people will have to ask given recent events. It is the most miserable time of the year. As Christmas nears, people get petty. Going deeper into debt. Fighting over stupid Elmo dolls and video game systems. Getting depressed over relationships. Sadly, we have to [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #51 (23mb)

Find out how this woman just might be able to save the world from the likes of Paris Hilton, Kim Jong Il and George Clooney. Plus, rants on the media coverage of the Amish school shooting. More business travel miseries. A bit on the Korean nuclear test and how the U.N. will be ultimately useless in assisting [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #50 (23mb)
Wed, 16 Aug 2006 04:47:30 +0000
Does this man look like a criminal? Poor Mel Gibson, another misunderstood celebrity. Ditto Lindsay Lohan and Boy George. Oh to be wealthy, drunk and famous. Celebrity breakups abound. Dave and Carmen. Kate and Chris. Shannon and Travis. And that dunce kid of Dr. Phil will be next. How about them commercials? I’m sick and tired of [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #49 (21mb)

Greetings from Asbury Park. The place is a dump. A variety of circumstances have lead me to ask the following question. Is the American dream a lie? Is it a myth? We see failure all around us. Towns like Asbury Park, NJ have gone from once thriving resort villages to desolate, post-apocalyptic nightmares that even Chuck Heston [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #48 (29mb)

In my second life Angelina Jolie would adopt me I’m sure. Can you handle sixty minutes of ranting action? Somehow I think CBS doesn’t feel this is a threat to the real thing. They’re full of it anyway. That show is only about 45 minutes when you factor in the commercials. SHOW NOTES $40,000 Podcast Studio. No joke. My [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #47 (35mb)

Don’t call it a comeback! I’ve been here for over a year. Let’s call this episode, “How Opal Mehta Got Busted, Got Outed and Got Dumped.” The gal on the left, Kaavya Viswanathan, is the young author of a book that has found to be plagiarized from a couple of other books. What else is new. The [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #46

We move from George Clooney to Tom Cruise this week on the PCR. What’s up with this dude? He’s responsible for censoring a really funny and very irreverent cartoon called South Park. I even hear that he got a director to edit an indie film that contained a nudie scene with his paramour Katie Holmes. [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #45
Fri, 03 Mar 2006 23:28:51 +0000
What a lousy couple of weeks fighting with people over year old health care bills! Plus that stupid lawsuit that CBS is waging against Howard Stern. Will the big media players ever learn? And George Clooney proves he’s out of touch with the real world once again. Then gets into a brawl over a blog [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #44
Mon, 20 Feb 2006 19:58:07 +0000
Couldn’t let February end without another attack of the PCR. Ever controversial and always infuriating, I’m tackling some of the hot topics of the day on this rant. SHOW NOTES 2008 Winter Olympics - Arrividerci Torino Bad NBC Coverage Bode and Jacobellis Flop Hail the flying tomato! Celebrity Action Breakup - Sheryl Crow and Lance Armstrong Screwup - George Michael and Lee Tamahori Iraq [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #43

Plenty to rant about this week. I got my hands on some Howard Stern content without having to lay down bucks for a Sirius receiver and subscription. And I’ve been listen to David Lee Roth in the morning and via his podcast. So who wins in the battle of these celebrity titans? Tune in to [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #42
Wed, 18 Jan 2006 15:37:42 +0000
This is a very revealing episode of the PCR. I’m talking about celebrity babies, in a nod to Brangelina’s hot off the presses announcement, celebrity sex tapes and vanity. I reveal one of my deep, dark secrets for all the world to hear. You won’t want to miss this one! SHOW NOTES Intro Celebrity Babies The soon to come [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #41
Thu, 05 Jan 2006 12:21:20 +0000
We’re baaaaaaack! It’s 2006 and it WILL be a crazy year. More celebrity screw ups? Yes. More media blunders? Most definitely. More run ins with crazy, ego maniacal podcasters? Oh yeah. More Michael Jackson jokes? Of course. You get the picture. Let’s start the year off right by slicing and dicing some easy targets. New [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #40

Welcome to the final show of the year. Lots of stuff going on. I’m back from the Portable Media and Podcast Expo. I’ve got a few bones to pick with people who think they’re celebrities due to podcasting. I recap some of the rant themes from 2005. Talk about a frustrating music symposium I attended [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #39
Fri, 04 Nov 2005 12:58:08 +0000
We’re back for the attack on the PCR this week. Pop culture is under fire and I’m reloading my guns! SHOW NOTES Intro (00:00) Everyday Drudgery (01:30) Mini Van Drivers Men’s Bathrooms The Apprentice (10:05) Four for the price of one How the Donald gets ahead and what he doesn’t tell you Blocking out the light and air Boycotting Jarhead (21:04) Book by Anthony [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #38

The guy in the picture on the left is one of the biggest idiots that you’ll ever see. He happens to be the (former) CEO of a company called Savvis Communications. And in 2003 he spent $240,000 at a strip club called Scores in New York City. Now he’s getting sued by American Express and [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #37
Thu, 13 Oct 2005 13:13:35 +0000
Prepare yourself for another hour plus long PCR this week. It’s chock full of rants on the media, celebrities and details about the scare (or podcast panic as I like to call it) that I’ve been accused of inciting by one foodie podcast/food product marketing company. How appropo for the month of October with Halloween [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #26
Tue, 12 Jul 2005 00:56:34 +0000
It’s a rant from hell this week as your host takes some people on over a very hot topic, the bashing of America. From expatriate VCs to RSS founders to elite intellectuals, Microsoft bloggers and German rabble rousers, it’s a full on KMA fest. Why the fuss? Simply put, enough is enough. The blogosphere and [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #4
Wed, 16 Feb 2005 18:52:48 +0000
The National Hockey League has dumped the 2004-2005 season. That’s okay because very few people really care. The Grammys are completely ridiculous and definitely a waste of time for the serious music lover. Why does America love to celebrate people who’ve been victims of tragic circumstances? Sylvester Stallone is back and that’s bad news! I [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #3
Tue, 15 Feb 2005 18:52:09 +0000
Do you love Google like I love Google? Google is taking over the world one search at a time. And that’s a good thing! Do your neighbors piss you off? Sometimes yes and sometimes no I’d bet. It helps to get it all out in the open. Are celebrities poised to screw up in 2005? [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #2
Mon, 14 Feb 2005 18:51:34 +0000
It’s Valentine’s Day! Good news for some, bad news for others. Do we really need this useless ‘Hallmark’ holiday? Snoop Dog is charged with rape, but not criminally. What gives? Let’s face it, mail is boring with a capital B. But every once in a while you get a surprise. And Robert Blake shows us [...] - Podcast NYC: Pop Culture Rant #1
Sun, 13 Feb 2005 18:55:37 +0000
