NEW (as yet to be named) podcast in the coming weeks

This is Uncle Dan. It's been over a year since the last episode of Radio W.C, and I am eager to get back in the podcasting business once again. My father, referred to as 'Grandpa' on Radio W.C. passed away rather suddenly a few weeks after the last episode. That sent us in different directions, none of which had anything to do with podcasting.

But, with this crazy presidential campaign going on and world events going on as they are, I am itching to come back. Mostly it will be just me, Uncle Dan behind the mic, but hopefully I will be able to persuade Abu Snookums to make a few cameos from time to time.

Anyway-I'll post on here where you can find the new podcast. I'm shooting for a week from today as of now, but, things always happen. Hope all of you still have this on your feeds!

Halliburton provided contaminated water to Soldiers

Here is the video discussed in episode 116.

Episode 116: Halliburton contaminated water, Sanjaya Malakar, wacky weather and more

listen here

First, a bit about a Youtube video I found about how Halliburton is allowing our soldiers in Iraq to bathe in and drink contaminated water. I'll post the video here shortly.

Plus, Sanjaya Malakar on American Idol-can the show undermine the 'undermining' of the show by his "fans?"

And, the strange weather in the WC-global warming, or just another crazy winter?

Episode 115: Radio WC returns-as "The Uncle Dan Show"??

listen here

We are back...well, Uncle Dan is back-as Radio WC will mostly be Uncle Dan for the forseeable future. But, I do discuss Abu Snookums' radio show "Your Muslim Neighbor" on 1360thesource.com.

Specifically, his show this past evening there was a call which got us all riled up! You'll have to listen to find out the details.

Plus, country music and...is our favorite show '24' finally jumping the shark??

Abu Snookums will most likely return on an occasional basis, as it is mainly a scheduling issue.

Hey, we are still here!

Just a quick reminder that we are still here and hope to do some more podcasting soon. I saw Bush's interview tonight from 60 Minutes. Oh, man, I don't even know what to say. This guy is a cross between Satan and a retard. Hmmmmm.

It has been a while and we apologize for not having a podcast as of now, but things are in transitional mode around here, and we are hopeful that Radio W. C. can survive. I'll let you folks know either way.

We have returned with a new episode

listen here

Yes, Radio WC still lives. We explain a bit of why we had such an extended absence, plus catch up on things such the mid-term elections, and the N-word (which Uncle Dan demostrates how to use wisely).

We apologize about the long break, but hopefully we will be back with another episode before Xmas.

Episode 113: Ramadan, Radio Talk shows...and Line Rider, the new internet sensation

listen here

Go check out Line Rider, the new internet sensation sweeping the land. Google buys out YouTube.

Can the Democrats hold out in their lead in the polls? does Karl Rove have some dastardly plan up his sleeve?

And...it is Ramadan, a tougher one than others for Abu Snookums, and exactly what is allowed and not?

Episode 112: Cartoons and Ramadan

listen here

We have returned after an extended hiatus with some talk about cartoons. specifically, Uncle Dan is mystified as to why 'The Family Guy' is as popular as it is (even , seemingly, in academia), and is beginning to harbor doubts of his own feelings toward the show.

Also, some GOP shenanigans involving Jean Schmidt not writing her own editorials.

And finally, it is Ramadan, and Abu Snookums and Uncle Dan debate the lunar calender vs. the solar calender.
