Episodes

1. Mandocast 01: A review of Syriana
download (audio/mp3, 2.85Mb)

Description: For my first broadcast, I recorded this review of the movie Syriana. Bottom Line: 2.5 out of 4 stars.

2. Mandocast 02: Frankie and Johnnie
download (audio/mp3, 4.06Mb)

Description: Here's a song from the band with which mandorichard plays bass: Tater Patch (web site: http://www.tater-patch.com ). This song features the singing of Shel Sandler and Marge Sume. Recorded Nov. 13, 2005, by Kevin Walsh, for inclusion (we hope) in the next fund-raising CD for Community Legal Aid Society, Inc. (web site: http://www.declasi.org ).

3. Mandocast 03: An Annoying Law
download (audio/mp3, 5.33Mb)

Description: When I first heard about the section of HR3402, banning "unsigned, annoying e-mail," I couldn't believe it! (Declan McCullagh's article referred to in this piece is available on line at http://news.zdnet.com/2100-1009_22-6024695.html ) But upon reflection, I suspect that this flawed attempt to prevent cyber-stalking will go the way of my favorite attempt at censorship gone awry. Soundtrack by Greystone Ramblers.

4. Mandocast 04: Play Ball--Cuba, too!
download (audio/mp3, 7.89Mb)

Description: I had a rant all set trashing the Bush administration for keeping Cuba out of the first World Baseball Championship tournament, and then Mr. Bush gave Cuba the green light! So, of course I have a ton of random thoughts. By the way, the music is from Kevin MacLeod's incompetech.com website -- made available via Creative Commons.

5. Mandocast 05: Captain O'Kane
download (audio/mp3, 6.99Mb)

Description: One of the best tracks off the CD we worked on from 2000- 2002.

6. Mandocast 06: A review of Super Bowl XL
download (audio/mp3, 5.13Mb)

Description: I thought the Super Bowl was OK, not great. But what do I know, I watched three heats of the mile run at the Millrose Games on one of the 4-letter network channels. You can view all the ads at AOL (web site: http://sports.aol.com/nfl/superbowlads )--among other places.

7. Mandocast 07: Apple uses Vertical Marketing with a Friendly Twist
download (audio/mp3, 6.63Mb)

Description: An opinion piece in which I realize that Apple is, in some ways, the successor to the King of Vertical Marketing in the late 1970s and early 1980s: Big Blue (IBM).

8. Mandocast 07.5: Preview of coming attractions
download (audio/mp3, 2.80Mb)

Description: I promised to do a new mandocast every 5-10 days, and it's been 11 days since the last episode--so here's a preview of coming attractions--I'm working on a couple of things.

9. Mandocast 08: Voices and Visions
download (audio/mp3, 9.07Mb)

Description: It struck me as a significant gesture that someone would open an independent bookstore in this day and age. So I spent some time talking with Angela Roche, the proprietor of Voices and Visions (web site: www.vandvx3.com), a bookstore that opened in July 2005, in the lower level of the Philadelphia Bourse. Support your local bookseller!

10. Mandocast 09: The Lone Pilgrim and A House of Gold
download (audio/mp3, 8.92Mb)

Description: This episode includes Debbie Durant, one of my colleagues in IT at the University of Delaware, singing two hymns: The Lone Pilgrim from the old Southern Harmony collection and Hank Williams' A House of Gold. We had to buy the rights to distribute A House of Gold (via www.harryfox.com -- The Harry Fox Agency). And those rights did not include use of the entire song in a podcast. So, if you like the portion in this mandocast, you can follow the directions in this episode to download the song--if you are one of the first 500 people to do so.

11. Mandocast 10: The College Board
download (audio/mp3, 6.43Mb)

Description: In this episode, I rant a bit about the College Board, the marathon that once was an "aptitude" test, and the October 2005 test results--whose errors were so sluggishly reported. (4/18/06)

12. Mandocast 11: Back in Business--Oh Wait--Thunderstorm!
download (audio/mp3, 3.70Mb)

Description: It's NOT all DSL, but HERE in Newport, DE, DSL goes out about every other thunderstorm. So I muse about how I no longer fear power outages--it's Internet outages that make me nuts.

13. Mandocast 12: Indian Ate A Woodchuck
download (audio/x-m4a, 5.85Mb)

Description: Shel, Judy, and Marge play the heck out of this tune, while Tony and I hold down the rhythm section. This may end up on the next CLASI (www.declasi.org) fund-raising CD, helping raise funds for legal services for the indigent. Oh, and this is an "Extended Podcast"--an m4a file with pics and URLs visible in iTunes.

14. Mandocast 13: A Meta-Podcast about Fair Use
download (audio/mp3, 3.19Mb)

Description: This podcast is prepared as a sample for the faculty summer institute at the University of Delaware. During my presentation, I'll play this short version of the podcast. If you want to hear me go on at more length about what I use to make the mandocasts or about the topic of the fair use exception to the copyright laws of the US, listen to the long version.

15. Mandocast 13-LONG: LONG version of a Meta-Podcast about Fair Use
download (audio/mp3, 11.33Mb)

Description: This podcast is prepared as a sample for the faculty summer institute at the University of Delaware. During my presentation, I'll play the short version of the podcast.
