The Monetary Measure of a Mother's Love (or rather how much she was willing to pay to get you to shut up that day)

Much to my own shock and amazement (and I'm sure to that of my audience as well) the convention organizer of Ultracon thought it would be a good idea to give me an hour to talk to the assembled Cybertronian masses at the Ft. Lauderdale Convention Center this weekend about my favorite Transformer continuity, which is old newspaper ads from K-Mart and a couple grocery stores in Texas. And although my actual Fort Lauderdalien audience will most likely be two passed out drunk guys, I know that you, my fellow Macrocranians, will probably want to hear the entire one hour robotarded aspergian nightmare unfold so I will attempt to record the panel for your listening enjoyment and release it as an upcoming episode.

This sounds like an awesome panel. I would hold off drinking until afterward if I was able to attend. :) Good luck, and I hope the recording works out. I've been loving the glorious return of ROBOPLASTIC APOCALYPSE!

Thanks a ton, Aaron. As usual, any encouragement from you is a really big deal to me. The recording is a priority to me because my dozen or so podcast listeners will probably outnumber the soul crushingly small turnout that will be there in real life. I want to do this for you and everyone who downloads my episodes on my irregular basis.

Speaking of irregular, I had that big gap that was kind of like your 6 month break near the end of WARP. It became hard to come back the longer time went by. I can blame it on equipment problems all I want but the truth was I just didn't feel interesting. You probably know how tough it is to overcome that monster.

I saw you let schnuth.com lapse. It is some small consolation to me that it lives on at archive.org. WARP will always be one of my original inspirations and if I ever actually release 73 episodes, #74 will be dedicated to you!
