How tragic. I can't stop crying. How did you guys survive this horrible event? I mean - no one was arrested? No trial? My God!

HAHAHAHA! the sound of the crying baby getting hit by the Bartles & James fragmentation grenades was hysterical, i LOL'd in my office and the guy across the hall gave me a nasty look. F-him! I must remember to close my door when listening to you three idiots. Also..Simon Lebon 'driver of a fine Catamaran' LOL!!!!!!!!

My God - I was laughing SO HARD, no sound was coming out of me! Hearing the launch of the glass bottles and hard candy was too much! Then - the hysteria. Your sober description of the event was perfectly played and the funniest!

OUTSTANDING!

MERRY CHRISTMAS MARC, TOD, JOHN (& MIKE)!! Looking forward to a GREAT New Year with you guys!

Polly, maybe you and Gio should hook up, it might calm him down a little.

Good show guys. As god as my witness, I swore that turkeys could fly!

On a side note, did they actually have t-shirt canons that far back?

brilliant
i am suprised that the guys have such a bloody past

This was great, you guys nailed it, the music was killing me, I was laughing so hard I almost slipped on some ice when I was making a 711 run.

Perfect use of Seena btw.

after reading Lax's last post i, too, wondered as to the genesis of the 'thsirt cannon'. After extensive research (i typed 'thirt cannon' in Google) i could not find the answer. However, i was able to find numerous companies that will rent a nice girl like moi a tshirt cannon and many other websites that will teach me how to build my OWN tshirt cannon.

So here's my plan......i will acquire said tshirt cannon and launch LBFM tshirts from the 20th floor of my office building. LBFM will literally rain down upon the citizenry of philadelphia! Soon afterwards you'll either 1) have many new listeners in this city and your iTunes rating will skyrocket or 2) The Barn will be raidied by the FBI and Marc, Tod and John arrested. An FBI raid on some podcasters 'compound' for an aerial terrorist attack will absolutely make the news and propel LBFM up the iTunes charts!! Its really a WIN-WIN situation!

But since there ARE no LBFM tshirts (as marc said, they're on a boat somewhere in the Inchon harbor) my plan has no legs. I suppose i could always hold my nose and buy some PGP tshirts and launch them at the homeless and the unfunny all over the city. But i really shouldnt be doing their work for them.

Have a good holiday guys, cant wait to hear what you have planned for 2010!

To nip the t-shirt cannon C-O-N-troversy in the proverbial bud...

The T-shirt cannon gained popular at rural fairs in the early ‘80s. “Smitty,” a DC 101 radio promotional pioneer, brought the t-shirt cannon to the mainstream soon after by implementing them in their now infamous promotional events.

Good to know 'Tod'.

Polly, I have already secured the means to launch a LBFM bus shelter campaign in the Greater Vancouver area. By secure, I mean I stole an access key for the new Translink bus shelters. Now all I have to do is by some super markers, steal the poster, and then write backwards on the inside of the glass.

I just need to lock down the branding. "Low Budget FM with Marc Chambers, regular guest John Salwin, recurring guest Mike Cioffi, and side kick Tad Percy" is what I have been going with. It is a lot of work to have more than 5 remain for more than 24 hours, so my range is rather limited.

Tad Percy? How the hell did my real Kenyan birth certificate leak?

Was everybody on Low Budget FM born in Kenya?

Show me the birth certificates. I want to see them.

Sorry, 'Tod' only has a 'Certificate of Live Birth'.

So, again, just to lock down the branding.
"Low Budget FM with Marc Chambers, regular guest John Salwin, recurring guest Mike Cioffi, and side kick Tuck Pickles"?

I only got 4 shelters converted tonight. Someone set a dog on me!

Wait, is Trigg Palin the side kick? Tom Prilly? Trahn Poullet?

The name you use for T.P. matters not, for it is the role of "sidekick" that the people will recognize.

T-Pain?

I think the name MARC would prefer you to use is as follows: Marc Chamber's Low Budget FM starring Marc Chambers! (and two other guys)

Okay, I shall go with that. Screw the sidekick Trev Pasty the sidekick, if he wants his name in black marker on a bus shelter he can do it himself.

I still don't get the problem you all seem to have with coasters though. I always use coasters.

I forgot to say, good use of TheSeena. The only reason we don't like her is she was disrespectful to the show and the listeners. It is okay when you guys talk crap about the show and yourself. She suffered from 'radio hot chick' syndrome - the looks just don't carry any water when we are only listening to you and you come off as a stuck up bitch. Maybe 'Tod' can have his cousin Rachel and TheSeena get together and form a support group.

I have to admit, I am still blinded by Rachel from her time on MuchMusic where she was sublime. She was *everything* she was not on TACS.

I am guessing that Tod and John did a lot of the writing and John did a lot of work recording the show and all of that effort really showed in the final product

So, like was Marc even born when this incident took place? Wouldn't 'Tod' have been around 10? This makes me realize I have no idea how old John is. I guess sleeping suspended in a tank of fetal stem cells like it was Bacta while German Industrial music blares is either really easy on the skin - or it is really bad and rapidly ages you. I mean he could be the same age as Marc, or old enough to call 'Tod' "kid".

"I am guessing that Tod and John did a lot of the writing and John did a lot of work recording the show"

hmm.

listening back to this(for the third time i might add) i realize just how much production went into it, great work guys

Marc, i only guessed that based on both past work and your stated displeasure at the 'theatre of the mind' bits that Tod liked like the Low Budget FM Live on the stickam show. Also, John has an edit bay he works in and you have a crappy lap top.
