Grumpy old geeks, a weekly talk show hosted by Brian Schulmeister and Jason

DeFilippo discussing the finer points of what went wrong on the internet and

who's to blame. Good morning Brian. How are you? We are good. After a few

Skype foibles, we're back on the air and ready to rock and roll. Yes we are. The

point of failure remains Skype. Hopefully somebody will come along and make

something better than this someday. I know. I was hoping FaceTime HD audio was

going to be our savior, but that's just as bad. Yes it is. Go Apple. Oh well

what are you going to do? Obviously these things are not made by Germans. We'll

get to the Germans in a minute. So I put something in our show notes that I

proposed to you to kind of like unburden you a little bit and myself actually.

I was about to say it's not just me. No yes it's me too, but but I know you and I

know you're a little bit foclimped nowadays. So I've been kept a little busy here.

It's definitely been a I'm busier than I have been in the last few years for

sure. Sitting around sipping your T. all day. Working on your your lazy

musician websites. So when we when we usually wrap the show on Fridays. Yes. Almost

immediately we open up the new dock and start adding stuff to it and unfortunately

by the time the next show rolls around half that stuff is stale and dead. So I'm thinking

ah how about we just like let's take a vacation after we do the show. Let's take a

vacation and relax a bit and then pick back up on Tuesday. Wait you mean like actually

have a weekend? Have a weekend. I know. Isn't it silly? Do the thing that we keep

talking about on this podcast about actually having downtime because it's super important?

Yeah let's try that do as we say. Not as we do kind of thing for once.
