Summary
I hosted a live edition of the Pub Songs Podcast at Dragon Con a few weeks back. I lost track of how many years I have closed the con with this live podcast. It's been a blast. In this episode, I play another Sci Fi Drinking Songs show with a lot of fan input. I also announce some exciting news about the Return of the Pub Songs Podcast.
Special note: There were some microphone issues. I apologize for the sound problems.
Here's the setlist for this week's show:
- Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster
- Kilted For Her Pleasure
- Mingulay Cat Song
- When the Dairy Farm Caught Fire
- Reavers, Malcolm, Reavers
- Reavers Lullaby (parody of "Close Your Eyes")
- We'll Have a Pint
- The Prettiest Hobbit
- Name On My Soul
- I'll Tell My Cat
- Doctor of Gallifrey
- Kilkelly, Ireland
- Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea
- Come Take a Trip on My Airship
The Pub Songs Podcast was the third podcast I started back in 2005. The show went through many, many changes over the years, when I stopped finally podcasting it back in 2014, I felt overwhelmed and confused about its place in the podosphere. I spent many long hours thinking how I could revive the show. and last month, I figured out what to do.
In 2016, I will relaunch the podcast. However, there will be numerous changes.
First, it will document my intergalactic music tour of geekdom.
Second, the show will vary in length between 10-30 minutes and feature drinking songs both traditional Irish and Scottish songs as well as some of my twisted favorites.
Third, the show will be released weekly as a season. I expect to have 10-12 episodes per season. Patrons of my Music will be gain early access to the completed episodes or seasons as they become available.
This will be an exciting adventure. And I hope you will join me. Stay tuned for me to announce venues around the universe. And enjoy this live edition of the Pub Songs Podcast.

| 0:00.0 | Well, welcome all. |
| 0:02.0 | Those who don't know, I am Mark Gunn. |
| 0:04.0 | This is going to be sort of fairly informal since number one, we're in a circle. |
| 0:10.0 | It just begs for informality. |
| 0:12.0 | Second of all, I plan to make this great set list, and I didn't. |
| 0:19.0 | But I have some big news that I want to share with you and I blame you |
| 0:23.8 | entirely. So we get to start off with that little bit too because, you know, I canceled. I stopped |
| 0:30.9 | doing the Pub Songs podcast two years ago. And I figured, you know, why not continue it, you know? |
| 0:39.0 | I mean, I have the Kelp Father podcast, but this would be a little bit different because what my plan is, is it's, since |
| 0:43.3 | we're going to go on an audio tour of the galaxy, the galaxies, of many galaxies. So that's my |
| 0:50.5 | plan is I'm going to do, I'm going to do some shows. The new Pubsongs podcast will be probably like, you know, 10 parts tours to various places where I go touring the Galaxy. |
| 1:01.0 | So it gets launched right here at DragonCon before I head out into the universe and start playing. |
| 1:07.5 | So, I mean, you know, you get to be a part of the beginning of this. |
| 1:12.6 | Should we turn to the light song? I'm not sure where I'm going first on this intergalactic tour, but it's going to be, you know, it's going to be a fun one. |
| 1:20.6 | So probably going to actually officially take kick off next year, but in the meantime, |
| 1:25.6 | I think it will start with this song which is because I want to go |
| 1:30.3 | play at the restaurant at the end of the universe. |
| 1:33.3 | The Pandalactic Gargleblaster is the drink I never could master like having your brain smashed out by a lemon wrapped around a gold brick. |
| 1:46.0 | The Pangalactic Gargolaster just one look and off the wagon fasters like a mugging, a beating, a kick in the head, I'm broke and I wish you were dead. |
| 1:57.0 | A hitch right intergalactic superhighways, the bypass all along the byways, |
| 2:03.6 | at every stop at every bar. |
| 2:05.6 | The Pan-galactic cargolastic gets me like a car. |
