dimland radio 6-23-12 show notes

Facebook Meme Roundup

It was supposed to be a conversion of UFOs, ancient aliens, and alien abductions with fellow Z Talker, Kale Kelly.  Kale was unable to do the show on Saturday, so we have try again next week.

 

Good thing I had plans for things to talk about.

 

So, I talked about memes I had found on Facebook.  Some political stuff, some religious stuff, and New Age healing nonsense.  I told of how I was accused of being a troll. Me?  Huh?

 

The Guy Fawkes mask of the Occupy Movement, crying Speaker John Boehner, Pastafarian philosophy, the earth distance from the sun, and the Thymus Thump all got my attention.

 

 Hitting this member of Blue Man Group's chest will do what now?

 

I mention this video by Brian Dunning on New Age Energy in my "I'm a troll?" segment. This video gives you the Thymus Thump nonsense right from some New Age type.  It is, in my view, most likely the placebo effect and not actually doing anything for your "energy" or your well-being.  Go here to learn more about the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

Movie Recommendation: The Kids Are Alright (1979)

 

Wonder why I think The Who are the greatest band ever?  This documentary should give you an idea why.
