For you!

giftfromgalI have had so much fun writing for you this year, I wanted to get you a little something. It’s not much. Just a couple of podcasts I think you’ll really like. (It’s hard to send anything really big through the Internet.) So here you go, I hope you’ll love them as much as I do.

  • The Bugle – a satirical news show featuring John Oliver of the Daily Show with his friend Andy Zaltzman. Andy operates from the U.K., which adds a nice international flair to the weekly podcast. They have me in stitches on a regular basis. I hope you’ll join us. There’s also a blog.
  • Risk! – a collection of truth-telling that will make you laugh, snort, gasp and/or cry, depending on the people you know and how you normally spend your time. Kevin Allison, who I know of from The State, is in charge of this operation and narrates the podcast. I became a fan quickly.

That’s it! They are both free (at this time) on iTunes, so download to your heart’s content and donate to the creators if you love them. I hope they make you smile. Happy holidays!

And now for something completely different

November 28, 2008 By: dcgrrl Category: YouTube, box, cat, fat, funny

This reminds me of how I try to pack more and more events into the limited time I seem to have in my day, or how I try to fit into those clothes from college… and how, when I somehow succeed at these painfully futile tasks, what do I do next? I start the process over again.

But at least I’m cute. Enjoy a laugh at the cute one’s expense.

Countdown to the first commercial break of the XL!

February 02, 2006 By: dcgrrl Category: advertising, funny, marketing, superbowl

Can’t wait for the Superbowl — the best new commercials of the year are supposed to debut next Sunday — what is going to be next? Last year’s Careerbuilder chimps are still playing out their time on the small screen here and there, and they still get a chuckle. Anything else you remember from last year? Here’s some animals auditioning for this year’s beer messages.

Not enough controversy for you? What do you think about cigarette advertising? This could get you going…

I’ll be back soon with Superbowl ad reviews!
