CleanRDsLoL V - Introducing a Friend (1.5) (Clean) | The fifth episode of my Life of Leisure contains...just one thing, actually. (Subscribe to the show here) This week I'm taking a temporary detour from the RDsLoL formula. There will be no three pillars, no Katamari Music, 'Stuff' to speak of...not even any House Hunters. In taking this path for episode (1.5), I feel I'm righting a perceived wrong. You'll understand more as you listen, but for now, just understand that I've been meaning to introduce you to a friend of mine. Some of you will already know this individual, others will not. Sorry to be so cryptic, but it wouldn't be an effective tease if there wasn't an appropriate element of mystery. So please take my word that you'll enjoy the episode, and click away. | 4/24/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Customer Reviews
Really funny and informative look at leisure
I really enjoyed this podcast. Just a funny look at sports, books, TV, gaming, etc. from someone with too much time on his hands.
Great stuff!
Not that it's a surprise, but Rocco does NOT disappoint with this look at all things leisurely. The best part of this is that you can feel free to listen in sweatpants.
Solid Gold!
Funny, snarky, informative, self-deprecating, and possibly irreverent are words that describe the Life of Leisure podcast from Pittsburgh's own Rocco DeMaro. I dig the looseness of the show, the tangential spontaneity creates golden moments of uber-nerdom as banter spins about Star Trek TNG, 'sweat clothes', Twitter, Fantasy Baseball etc.
Kudos to Mr DeMaro!
LET'S GO BUCS!!!
