Podcast 119

Kick off the weekend with an update on stories we’re watching at The Bob Davis Podcasts. For one thing, a spring snow storm has dumped at least a foot of snow on the Twin Cities, which will completely screw up the commute for Friday, April 4th. With the worst winter in 100 years, Global Warming scientists are threatening to ‘go on strike’ and ‘march in the streets’. Really? The Met Council here in the Twin Cities has decided to screw the rich people in Kenwood, and around Cedar Lake, much to the chagrin of Minneapolis’ new Mayor, Betzy Hodges. What’s funny is, all these people supported LRT as long as it was destroying someone else’s neighborhood. Plus, find out who’s behind legalizing marijuana (hint; NOT the Koch brothers), beware the ‘Ring Of Fire’, NOW you understand why we should have let GM go bankrupt the old fashioned way, not with a government bail out, Iran’s new Ambassador to the UN is a … wait for it … terrorist, and more.

The future of podcasts. Podcasting is growing by leaps and bounds. How do original podcasters handle the arrival of new podcasts from local radio personalities? How is podcasting different from over-the-air broadcasting? Why is podcasting a breath of fresh air, the future of spoken word, and The New Talk? A rare ‘stream of consciousness’ podcast for Bob Davis, hitting on technology, podcasting, BitCoin, why we may not need much government at all someday, why we have to change how we talk about politics to each other, and much more. Some people think I should do more of these. We’ll see. Sponsored by Baklund R&D
