Ichi-Go Ichi-E

Erik Guzman January 23rd, 2008

On this week's [ping], Steve Chastain from Stupid Church People.com stopped by to catch up with me, Sharon, Jordo, and Dan.

We talked about not being tripped up by our past, living in the moment, the People Project, and an absinthe drink called the Aunt Roberta (reported to be "the world's strongest cocktail").

Use one of the links below to listen.

Regarding the Aunt Roberta, apparently there's some dispute over whether or not it is in fact "the strongest, … (Read More)

Keep Feeding 'em Dummy

Erik Guzman June 5th, 2007

Deacon Jay lives in a community of disabled folks. Most are on fixed incomes. When the power company raised their rates, it left them with one of two options:

1 - Pay the power bill to continue running the oxygen machine and charging the wheelchair

2 - Eat

As the individuals and families around Jay chose the first option and began to go without, he felt like he should do something, but didn't know what.

In times past, Jay would go to Bishop Frank to ask for guidance, but the bishop had re … (Read More)

Crunk

Erik Guzman May 9th, 2007

The new SBE.com, Hip Hop Word of the Day, Dick Staub, a Feed 'em Dummy update, the not so amazing Spiderman, and the usual buffoonery were all part of this week's show.

That was all well and good. It was a really good show, but it would have been even better if it weren't missing our buddy, the Spastic Mystic. Sharon's sick. Get well soon spaz. Hope you enjoy the show, it wasn't the same without you.

Thanks again to The Sweetkisses for providing the soundtrack to the … (Read More)

Why Are You Running Away?

Erik Guzman April 4th, 2007

Two very special artists from Orlando were featured on this Holy Week edition of Etcetera.

We opened and closed with local favorites Band Marino. Go to bandmarino.net to hear more of their stuff, see band members frolicking in nature (and tight pants), and get tour date info. Then, buy their album, The Sea and the Beast.

You'll have to listen to the show to hear the other artist.

Beyond that stuff, we took a trip down autistic lane with Sharon, gave you a sneak peek of the new SBE open, g … (Read More)

Paper or Plastic?

Erik Guzman March 28th, 2007

On this week's show, we finally tackle the tough questions, everything from 'does the state of being observed fundamentally affect the absolute nature of matter' to 'paper or plastic?' Seriously, if a plastic grocery bag chokes and kills a two-tailed-tata-nymph in the middle of the ocean and there's nobody there to see it, do we really exist?

Also, big news! There's now $1000 of matching money available for the Feed 'em Dummy project. When you donate mo … (Read More)

Feed 'em Dummy

Erik Guzman March 21st, 2007

We had a great time last night. Listen to the evidence, I mean…show. After you taste and see that the Etcetera is good, subscribe to the feed for a weekly dose.

Deacon Jay joined us to talk about his work feeding disabled families in Central Florida. After you listen, you can get involved in the effort by going to visiblevoid.org. Find out more about the Church of the Resurrection and click on the link for Heaven's Grocer to donate to the cause.
