BLACK HEART GOLD PODCAST 21: THE PERFECT STORM

Perfectstorm_medium
Oops Pow had already gone overboard.

Just because we spent the last two weeks talking about wrestling and football doesn't mean we forgot about basketball season.  On the contrary, we've been following it closely, mostly by cracking jokes in Steve Batterson's online chats and watching Storminspank's reports on Hawkeye Nation and at his own blog.  Stormy joins us this week, as we get the spring 2008 incarnation of the BHGBand back together and churn out our greatest hits.

Listen below or on iTunes.

I fully support bringing in the Air Dogs or whatever as much as possible for halftime shows.

Those were always the best halftime shows. Shit, they even got people to hang back from getting soft-serve ice cream, so you know they were something special.

Jackie Moon needs to become our promoter...

And sing this.

Oh, and it’s NSFW. (Of course.)

The M.A.S.H theme is a nice touch:

“Hawkeye”, Radar O’Reily from Ottumwa, etc.

The M*A*S*H thing is secondary

It’s called “Suicide is Painless,” which seems extremely appropriate for this season.

Before you respond, let me remind you: Brian Cook called me smug, which makes me the Obama of smugness. I'm basically Smugbama.

Believe it or not, first take.

You can hear me almost lose it during the second part, and once I went back to listen I started crying, but I’m a pro.

You have a rich and manly singing voice

If you feel like singing along, don't.

Did Hawkeye State

just drop a Gadsden Purchase on us right off the bat? Way to know your 19th Century U.S. landgrabs!

Less memorable than Sam Okey's Hawkeye career.

Is this your first podcast?

We have much love for the Gadsen Purchase.

(The origins of that love can be traced back to the Arizona game podcast, perhaps our most completely insane podcasting experience.)

I have listened to every podcast

since Michigan. Although, in fairness, most of them are "heard" while I’m cooking dinner and trying to filter noise through the din created by my kids.

Ah.

Well, if you love the Gadsen Purchase, the Arizona podcast is chock-full of talk about it. And all kinds of other Arizona-related factoids. It’s… surreal.

I would think that my dulcet singing voice would immediately lull your children into slumber.

No joke,

whilst listening to the podcast this morning, my son came running when the song was playing. He then looked at the screen and scowled as only a two and a half-year-old can when hit with the realization that, no, Dora is NOT on.
