Hello all my friends.

In short, I am not sure what is going to be going on with the show.  I really just don't have the time.

I just got a new job which means I will be quite busy with that and I have 3 uni courses to complete by the end of March. Not sure how I am going to pull it all off to be quite honest...  but with that said, that means certain things have to get cut. 

The show will be put on hold until further notice.  I'll still be around checking the site out and what not, but yeah... I was going to record a quick episode and put it out there... but no time!

Too much uni work to get through.

Thanks for all the support and downloads.  Stats are actually looking pretty good considering I haven't been around.  Coincidence?

See ya around folks!!

Hello everyone.  I am still kicking around. I'll be heading back to England on Monday. Yay!!  I'll try and record another show really soon.  Perhaps today on my way to my friends house in the car again.  Worked out alright last time....

But head on over to:

One Minute How To 

and take a listen.

Well I am back in Canada after surviving England.  And England was good.. Windsor Castle was awesome so everyone should go there.  Don't go there for the castle, but go there for the Russian hookers.

It is a bit odd being back in Canada after 2 years away.  So many things have changed.  There are now Canadian flags all over the place... apparently somewhere along the way, people decided to give themselves an identityh.  Or wait, it wasn't people, it was the government hard work promoting Canada.  Anytime you start seeing flags going up, be careful... very very careful.

Things that are different?

Way more big box stores and less independent retailers.  Which isn't a bad thing necessarily but it does look quite crass.  People are sort of rude and indifferent.  Canucks  love wearing jeans and t shirts.  ie.  There is NO fashion  sense here.  If it wasn't obvious at the airport, it was obvious when i started venturing my local towns.  Now I am not saying this is a bad thing, its just not what I am used to anymore.

The term 'metro sexual' doesn't hold as much meaning as it does back home in Australia.  Here it roughly translates into FAG... 

The beer tastes funny.  Not bad... just funny.

I think that is just about it.  The cost of goods seems to be pretty cheap here unlike Australia.  Gas is so inexpensive here they are practically giving it away!!

I think I have a bit of a difficulty identifying with Canada as it is not my home anymore.  So who changed? Canada or ME?  I am thinking it was me....

Hello folks!

Well i am now crashing in a nice hostel somewhere in London.  Luckily enough they have free wi-fi and I am within reach from my bunk. Happy joy!

England has been exciting and fun to say the least.  The only problems I have had so far involve people.. and they were fellow travelers.   Locals are all good! Indifferent.. my favourite!

Tip:

When introducing yourself, don't say "Hi, my name is Jim, from New York" because this is not a convention and I don't give a shit where you are from.  Rookie travelers.   *sigh* 

If there are any Canadians reading this, remove your stupid Canadian flag patch from your back pack NOW! It is lame.  If you are going to do patches, put on patches from all your travels. Each country.. not just Canada.  no one cares.  you suck.

So yeah... it is pretty cool here.  There is some sweaty fat guy snoring right now. Incidentally he is from Germany.  I asked him if he had some good porn but he didn't reply.  Either he doesn't speak English, or is not at all aware of what is legal and illegal here in England.

I will get some pictures out soon and try to record something in the next few days.  We shall see!!

Here is another video for you to enjoy. This one is 5 minutes long.. which is a bit much in length, but it is a home movie that I made just for you guys.

See some whales in action as they jump out of the water all around me while I was on holiday in Hervey Bay. Funny thing.. it is spelled 'Hervey' but pronounced 'Harvey'....

Welcome to the next great episode!
Right.. getting the hang of this solo podcasting.

This episode includes:

A shot in the ass in China
A short talk with the late great Steve Irwin
I hate hippies!!!!  (I really really hate hippies)
Power adapters! Tooo many...

Thanks for tuning in folks and thanks for the feedback on the website and the solo show.

-Adrian

Well... The website has had a much needed face lift.  Bit more colour.. as I think it was missing that.

I am going to continue adding on to it and fixing things up but I have been working with graphics and crap all day...so now I am tired of html!

Hope you like the new web site!

Anything you want?  Requests?  Do let me know....

-Adrian

btw, I need some mp3s from people... send your greetings to me!

Shoutbox was removed due to lack of use. Maybe when I get famous I'll put it back up! ha...

Well there are a few changes as you may have noticed.  First there is a name change.  It is now The Great Adrian Show.

If anyone has any better suggestions please let me know.. I will not finalise everything until sometime in September when I have more time to make all the changes.  There is going to be a lot of work ahead for me as a name change is a fair bit 'o figuring.

So yeah.. if there is a good G word you can think of, drop me a line... 

The reason for the name change is simple.  Geoff is very busy.  Thats it!  He will be back... but until then, I'll record everything. So I hope that is ok with all of you.. all ten of you. :)  Ha....

But there are going to be some great things ahead!  I am going to continue with the video casts and mix up the show with all sorts of wacky things. 

So stay tuned and keep listening... and watching.

I just watched a documentary on TV about Cuba and Mr. Castro.   He has been in power for about 40 years now and Cuba is still under communist control.  But the people refer to it as socialism.  Which is interesting, because socialism is really pretty much communism now isnâ��t it?  Except when you hear communist you think of Russia or perhaps China and a militant government controlled organization.  But itâ��s the same concept.  Equality for everyoneâ�¦. All people get the same wage according to their position, and everyone has equal access to food.  On and on and on.  I am not sure if I have this completely correct, as I am just some random guy spewing out some text.  For what reason? I donâ��t knowâ�¦  just because I can I guess.

But the next time your walking down the street and you see some stupid white faced macaroni and cheese eating university students who are condemning capitalist society because people are starving, unemployed, and the sky is falling, ask them, what do they really wish to accomplish.  Would they prefer communism? 

Or better yet, go ahead and buy a Big Mac, then walk up to them, take a big bite, and tell them how fucking good it tastes.

Vive Le Economy!  What is wrong with working hard and being rewarded?

Hello all,

I have it here. Episode #8.  Edited and complete in all its perfect glory.

I can't upload.  I have no bandwidth left but I may be able to upload it tomorrow night.  Latest time this will be uploaded is Weds night EST.

I HATE the bandwidth caps on the internet out here.  Hate hate hate hate hate hate hate.... ugh.. oh well.  Episode #8 will have me rant a bit about the crap internet here in Australia.

Laters!

Hello all my friends,

So I got a wee bit bored and dusted off my old webcam and thought tonight would be a good night to learn how to encode to .wmv and all that fun stuff.  I'd like to incorporate some video into the show now and then in the future.  And like all things... there is a learning curve.

But hey, you can watch my lame lame lame lame video.

Right click and hit save as:

Lame Video Here!

Till Next time!

We have episode #3 recorded and now all I have to do is edit it.  It's a good one!!! 

We may be getting the hang of this podcasting thing...  and I think eps three will be about 45 minutes long or so. 

I will post it later sometime today (Australia Time) as I am currently completing the set up of my new pc.
