This week I’m a bit sick of Warnings, from every and any direction actually. Any stinking disgusting human worth their weight in bile knows how to stay alive, it’s obvious every time I got to a store or anywhere you other people think you have to be in my way at. Then next thing before you know it somehow it seemed to turn into a theme for the show about different warnings in some form or another, still not sure how it happened and I wrote this… really, it’s got to be ‘Charlie Brown Karma’.
New #FlixPix, this is your 5th one how about some thoughts on that? Another #AsshatOfTheWeek with a special guest. #ComplimentSandwiches are also contained within along with some promo & out take action. But you gotta listen to the end if you want to hear everything in context.
Listen first then read this as it actually matters this time.
There is another option here. I have ‘rigged’ my donation button & I may be able to save all our dignity in this hideous hostage situation. If you can afford it & want to donate it would be greatly appreciated & reinvested in the shows so they get better for you. It doesn’t have to be a lot $2, $5 whatever. Once, twice a year, monthly (see I’m still funny even now)!
But I also have another option! I live near SF not more than a mile from the Pacific Ocean. Basically, Frisco is a liberal joint & I can get away with quite a bit in the way of ‘stunts’. Meaning, if you & I agree on a stunt & a price I will do it as soon as possible after payment has been received (& cleared) for an agreed upon stunt that is not ILLEGAL. Space has been provided to detail your stunt along with your donation so i know it has been paid, make sure to use it if we agree upon something!
If you feel making an ass of me is good value for your entertainment dollar so be it, but know I work alone. Video will almost always be first person crappy handheld coverage! So plan your stunts accordingly. If its something that requires video I have YouTube to publish that fun for you. This could even be wanting me to try & write jokes on a specific topic of your choosing, whatever! Do a simulcast video of an episode dressed as a woman? No problem, I just don’t know where to get a dress my size. Want me to shave my beard? You don’t have enough in your account! Remember we’ll agree on stunt for donation prices so don’t think you can just send one in with a stunt & bitch. I have to agree beforehand.
So what do you think? I really appreciate all the response & look forward to keeping you entertained. This show has more than doubled in downloads in the last two months. As of today (Aug 15) we have already served up more show downloads than any month previous, I’m honestly blown away by the response. I can’t thank you enough I just want to keep bringing you the funny while holding the crazy at bay. But if last month was my best month & I’m already beating that I need to take care of my bandwidth provider, who has been really gracious in letting me expand with this burst of growth without additional charges. I just don’t like to take advantage of people’s kindness, so I’m turning to you, the people I’ve been entertaining…. for free…. for 9 months…. even longer in some cases.
I’ll keep doing it either way but without some listener or ad support there will have to be some changes. Hopefully we’ll be able to keep this in the freeware/donations arena & keep it fun.
Great week folks! Hope you’re all doing well too! It’s been a fun week, I did a guest spot on a new podcast called Destination Asphyxiation which is hosted by Tom Bevis who you may know from Twitter as @BarrelhouseRed. He doesn’t have his show up on iTunes yet but you can listen to it on Soundcloud via this linked phrase that is different colors and all long! It was a lot of fun & then his show came out! Man what a great first show! I have literally and in all seriousness never heard as good a first show put out by a one man independent podcast crew ever. My instinct here is to make a joke & say my first show was better but honestly out of respect I can’t do that his show is really that great. I’m really looking forward to more from this guy & I hope you’ll all jump on board quick because you’re going to want to see where that goes!
That being said back to me & Don’t Quit Your Daycast! Not only are we back to our regular release day on Tuesday this week after all the Royal & Doodall craziness but we’ve also stepped up our game! I told you there were some changes coming so this show is the beginning of the upgraded Version 2.0, that’s right massive upgrades! Listening to that first Ep from my friend definitely showed me the gauntlet had been thrown upon or at least very nearly at my feet! So here it is gauntlet returned in your general direction my friends, enjoy the show!
This week we’ve got: a new Celebrity Promo, some talk about something weird that happened to me on Twitter, this weeks Flix Pix, a new Asshat of the Week and Extra Special Compliment Sandwiches.
We’re back again! Here we go with Ep. 22 which will be the end of the big clip shows, for those of you who have been concerned. Though I made sure to save the clips with me stepping all over everyone else’s stories the most for last. So if you’ve missed me, then this show definitely has more of me, even though I’ve lost weight since recording it so technically there is less mass to me. We clear there?
First thing are some #ComplimentSandwiches then we jump right to #AsshatOfTheWeek for those of you who missed it from the last show. Then more of my stories with a few brief side trips into guest Travis Clark @thatguytravis from ‘Tiny Odd Conversations Podcast’ thoughts as well as some mumbling by Angus Doodall @AngusDoodall of ‘The Royal & Doodall Show’ who for some reason, most likely incredible jealousy being as I’m such an attractive male specimen in addition to being a comedic genius, keeps holding back all the best clips from the ‘Royal & Doodall Day’ call in show with myself. You should all really protest & let them know of your displeasure via Twitter @Royal_n_Doodall.
Please excuse the changes in audio levels a couple times during this show. I actually had to pull a long segment with a good bit I liked off the video feed of this show which is on Ed Wallick’s YouTube Channel in its entirety (1:35:01 so go for it if you’re feeling up to it killer)! The group taping was fun & I’ll be using it again but the clips culled from those improv session will not be dominating future shows as they have the last 3. I did enjoy the live video broadcast through Google+ aspect of it & then the video being saved & uploaded to my YouTube Channel. So go ahead & add me to a O in Google+ (Ed Wallick) & you’ll be able to watch when we do those tapings if you like. I’d also like to bring in some listener participation via the Google+ Hangouts so that would be another reason if you’d like to be able to ask your future #HeyEd questions to the host yourself as opposed to sending them in via Twitter.
So those are my thoughts for the future of the show. We’ll be back to our segment format next week and you’ll be seeing some of these short improv segments on occasion & hopefully some actual listeners like yourself (possibly even you) crazy right?
I really just want to make you guys happy out there while you get through your day! I used to listen to these shows in my cube or at various IT gigs & they really helped that 8, 12 or even 16 hour shift fly by with the feeling that I’d been listening to a friend joking in my ear all day.
This weeks show is an edited continuation of a group improv session I did last week with @AngusDoodall of The Royal & Doodall Show and @ThatGuyTravis from Tiny Odd Conversations Podcast, who is actually literally stealing my compliments now (really I have audio proof here)!
First off let me just say, WOW. I really enjoy doing these types of shows but editing is not a part of the ‘art’ of self production that I relish, most likely because I’m an OCD afflicted perfectionist. Still, believe me it’s not perfect but it is a really funny show.
Just a couple more quick notes: This weeks #FlixPic is ‘Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins’ & as with all of the FlixPic’s it is available via NetFlix Streaming. I haven’t gotten any feedback on the last two yet but it’s a new concept, remember you can comment on these movies via e-mail (EdWallick at DontQuitYourDaycast.com) or on Twitter @EdWallick or @DontQuitYourDay. If you send in something we find amusing I’ll read it on the show.
Sorry there’s no #AsshatOfTheWeek this week but it’s already going to be the first thing off the bat in Ep.22 and let me tell you it’s a good one.
Sit back & enjoy the show, we’re covering a lot of ground this week in 30 minutes.
