Again, chances are these guys are lacking in girlfriends.
This is our future ladies and gentlemen. Our geriatric treatment will one day be in these people’s hands…
Put a man on the moon? That’s nothing! This takes talent.

You have to admit, Ronald Reagan was great at telling a joke.
I have to tell you, I’m especially excited about this week’s podcast. Every episode is fun to work on… but this one uses two segment that were especially meaningful to me. The tip is from Kerry Loescher. She’s not someone I had ever met before and since she isn’t a published author… I hadn’t heard of her. She is a youth ministry prof at Oral Roberts University in Oklahoma. Before the shoot she had a great chat. Even after the shoot, the chatting continued and I was really happy to see her around the convention center the rest of the weekend. I love how she leads you into this simple tip with a compelling story. Great communication! A few weeks later I shot this piece with Danielle Strickland. (She’s the social justice director for Salvation Army Australia) I had heard some really cool stuff about her so I had a feeling the piece would turn out good. What I wasn’t prepared for was how easy she was to talk to. In her eyes I wasn’t just some dude with a camera to bother her on a very busy day. (This was about 2 hours before her general session talk) She had carefully arranged the meet-up time, then apologized for being ready early, (which NEVER happens) and was extraordinarily kind through the whole thing. Then, when she started to teach I found myself captivated. By this time, I had shot dozens of these segments at the conventions. But for whatever reason I was really into it. And she really challenged my heart with this devo. When the shoot was done I felt a little awkward… like stunned to silence as contemplated it and let it soak in. I looked over at Cathy (my co-worker who was with me) and she had the same look I did. It was quite a moment when I realized that I wasn’t just shooting a devo for a podcast. My heart had been ministered to as well.
The only other side note on this episode worth sharing has to do with the timing of my segments. In order to get the show to appear on YouTube, we need to get it as close to 10 minutes as possible. We knew Danielle’s segment was longish for what we normally do… which was fine because Kerry’s was shortish. All that to say… Ian and I were rushing to fit my intro, segway, and outro in as fast as possible. Never fear, we have something fun planned for next week’s show!
I think this was a great move by GM. Bring Conan O’Brien into the Detroit Auto Show and letting him have some fun. Self-deprecation is actually a great way to start changing the mood towards the former Big 3.
You know you have a Rick Roll story to share. Come on, do tell!
Caught this video link on Twitter today. Very funny, this is about what I think of the plot of Star Wars too. She actually knows more about it than I do.

Based on the age of the video I kind of doubt this old timer is still around. But if you were a kid with a sling shot like me as a kid, you know just how good this guy is.
It’s worth noting that I’ve loved having GW Bush as President. No sarcasm in that statement. While it’s become popular to poke fun at him, call him names, and insist that he’s an idiot… I don’t feel that way at all. I recognize that he has been the President we elected, exactly as presented. Had he been more flexible he would have been more popular. But I don’t fault the guy for being who we elected. All of these quaint things that people liked about him (see the video) in 2000, we now make fun of him for.
I predict that public opinion of him will greatly increase after his presidency ends. As more is known and the Messiah’s crown begins to tarnish of the Obama Presidency, we will stop hearing that he was “the worst President in our history” and begin to see a broader picture of what he was trying to do. Eight years later I can still say that I’m glad he won the 2000 election and Al Gore didn’t.
Back to the video. A fantastic orator, Bush is not. With 24 hour news I don’t know how they managed to narrow it down to a Top 10 list!
