Episode 17: Return of the FFundercats | For decades, or at least more than a year, Johnny Worthington and Josh Haley produced the most-listened-to podcast that was all about FriendFeed. Sadly, that podcast came to a pause earlier this year, but On Garner Road has managed to get the team back together, much like one of those “Brady Bunch” reunion shows, except that it has funny people. NOTE: UNEXPURGATED DIRECTOR’S CUT. See also Movie titles that might also be euphemisms for going poo. | 9/28/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Season 2 is coming! | FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MORGAN HILL, CA (September 5, 2010) — The long-awaited Season 2 of On Garner Road, the oft-commented-upon podcast by Glen Campbell, will arrive on Tuesday, September 7, at 9:30 AM PDT. Season 2, like Season 1 before it, features an intriguing mix of Internet celebrities along with other interesting people who live all or part of their lives online. Potential interviewees include a guitarist, an astronaut, a prime minister, and a Nobel-prize-winning physicist, but probably not. On Garner Road, while not award-winning, has quickly garnered (see what I did there?) an enthusiastic following of listeners with its one-on-one interview format and casually-stated elegance. You can listen to On Garner Road at http://garnerroad.com or subscribe via iTunes at http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/on-garner-road/id363346451.

Episode 11: Memorial Day Special | In honor of Memorial Day, this episode of On Garner Road consists of a recording of a conversation I had with my father in 2008 about his experiences surrounding World War II. Oddly enough, it starts with an account of the “race riots” in Beaumont, Texas, when, as a member of the National Guard, he was required to protect downtown Beaumont from what was, essentially, a lynch mob. An “LST,” by the way, is a “Landing Ship Tank,” one of the amphibious craft used by the US Navy to deploy tanks on Pacific beaches. My dad is not perfect, of course, but I’m extremely proud of his service and, more importantly, of his life. He’s still around and helping to care for my mother, who is in the long, slow decline of Alzheimer’s. They still live in Beaumont, Texas, so perhaps this isn’t entirely appropriate for a “memorial” day, but, given the sacrifices of those who have gone before him, I’m willing to forego strict accuracy. Sadly, some of this conversation has been lost, but I hope you enjoy what remains. And I hope you take a moment today to give thanks for those soldiers whose sacrifices meant so much to so many. | 5/31/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
