The world of FarPoint Media grows even larger, as the influence of Michael and Evo spreads to infect the women we love. That’s right: Our wives now have their own podcast!

Sheila and Lorrie are both educators, and devour books as quickly as Mike and Evo consume the free beer provided by guests during an episode of Wingin’ It! So they’ve decide to take this power (girls reading books, not boys drinking) and use their powers for good. We present to you the Dragon Page With Class.

The show is a semi-weekly exploration of tips and techniques useful for parents and educators looking to motivate their kids to do what all kids should do more of: read. It’s a very different thing from the shows Mike and Evo host. We hope you like it! Subscribe to the feed in the navigation bar if you like. And happy listening!

Let me start by saying, John McCoy, that if I get sued for putting this stuff up there, I’m going to personally send Quite Irascible Diffractable Cheese Balls up your arse.

For the rest of you who have been emailing, phoning, and commenting your whines and pleads… I present the Killer Bunnies Goodies zip file, as provided to me by John. Extra bucks, colored mats and markers for use in the game. Play safe!

According to John:

I don’t think those are licensed. I got them from the Yahoo! Group for Killer Bunnies.

Let’s hope not. I’m putting these up in good faith that they are materials which are designed to make the experience of Killer Bunnies, which is already incredible, even better. If someone finds that I should not have done this, please let me know instead of sending threatening letters, OK?

A few shows back, I was griping about the complexity of getting CD-based audio books onto my iPod. I’m not stupid or lazy, but the process for podcasts transfers is much easier, and I was… bitching. There. I’ve said it.

Steve from Atlanta heard my rant and offers this solution:

I found this app (Markable by iPodSoft)to combine my CD books so I can put ‘em on my iPod.

I love it and its cheap. No… I dont work for these folks. It’s made audio books on my iPod useful.

It’s only $15 bucks, and if it is as handy as Steve says, well worth the money. Thanks for the link, Steve! (Looks like it’s Windows only, dammit.)

Just in case you didn’t get enough of Mark Forman (AKA The Brooklyn Blues Man & Reigning Shogun of Taiwan) on our shows while he was visiting the states, Mark spent an obscene amount of time interviewing both of us for his Free Culture podcast.

We go into excruciating details about how we got together (not like that, dammit), Mike’s writing, the genesis of all of our shows, and what the future holds. Earth shaking? Depends on how hard you dance, I suppose…
