Santa Vlog!

I was given the honor of playing Santa Claus for a local newspaper this morning.  It was a truly remarkable experience!

 

The suit is made of MAGIC.  People just LOVE Santa Claus!  I know I do... I even made a vlog about it.  Can you believe that?!

Tivo is Tasty!

So, here's a little (tiny) bit more info, as I had promised I would attempt to supply, once I knew a bit more about the whole "Beer Is Tasty" on TiVo topic...

And LOOKIT THAT!  The one episode that we get a screenshot of, is the ONE and ONLY episode co-starring yours truly.  Ain't that just the greatest!  =)

In other BiT news, it looks like there are plans in the works for Jupiter Broadcasting to go on location with a local brewery.  We intend to at the very least get a quick tour, taste, and interview with their brewmaster(s).  But maybe more!  Stay tuned to see this footage... I'm really excited about it!

If you're following STOked, this week's show has a special little twist thrown into the mix... I finally received my Closed Beta access (which I got via the 6-month CO subscription that Bryan bought me for my birthday - Thanks Brybry!), but after Episode13 airs, I'm not sure if I'll still have access.  I was careful!  But maybe not careful enough.  You be the judge!

Oops I vlogged it again

Within the incredibly entertaining innards of this, my second-ever VLOG, you will come to understand the financial circumstances that have led to my current living situation.

Enjoy!  I had a lot of fun making this one. =)

Thanks

I hope everyone has a safe and happy Thanksgiving Day!

 
 

The #1 thing I'm thankful for this season:  Finally enjoying what I'm doing for a living, after almost a decade of soul-sucking paper pushing.  It might not be the most financially rewarding stuff I've done in a while, but dammit if I'm not happier than I've been for longer than I can remember.  And that's worth being thankful for!

Live Stream! ... oops

So, I promised to update this dealie when I had details for Sunday's LIVE STREAM @ Jupiter Broadcasting. I guess I failed. I updated elsewhere though! And at one point we had over 100 people in there. I'm so proud. =) Really, honestly -- I'm thrilled that we continue to receive almost nothing but positive feedback regarding our podcasting projects. They're an absolute BLAST to make, and knowing that folks are enjoying the finished products really helps make all the hard work worthwhile. Oh, also, I lied about the cookies. My bad.

Stay awhile and LISTEN...

I have begun a VLOG project, posting over on YouTube.

For the time being, this is project is not attached to Jupiter Broadcasting, but more of just a personal outlet for continued internet creativity.  It's also serving the purpose of helping me learn to record and edit video and audio using less sophisticated tools than those typically available in the Jupiter studio.  It helps me to appreciate how much of a difference that equipment really can make, in the finished products.

For example, the audio in this first video is pretty terrible, and very hit-and-miss.  I laid a music track down behind the main recording, but could only set a single volume control.  And since the music I used (selections from "The Incredibles" soundtrack -- which is a marvelous piece of orchestration in every way) has a lot of dynamic shifts in volume, it's completely inaudible at some points, in order to make the louder portions not overpower the sound of my voice.  A program that can do dynamic audio levels may be necessary for future recordings.

Hootenanny - Morning After

In NON-Jupiter news, I had the opportunity to perform last night with some of the absolute best Country & Bluegrass musicians from this area. 

The "Hometown Hootenanny" was an absolute blast, and even a slight financial success.  Really looking forward to our Christmas show in December!  Now to put together a song list for it....

Planning an extravaganza of show recordings for Sunday. I will endeavor to push for LIVE STREAMS of all of it, so stay tuned to your usual channels to tune in!

The fun usually begins around 2pm PST. I will update you all when I have more solid details. And a confirmation. And cookies.

Late nite JB musings...

Chatting with Chris while he plays on his new Hackintosh.  

Part two of that custom build video might be up this weekend.  He's still working out a few kinks, but it runs!  Also cuts the render time of our videos almost in half, and it's not even running at 100% yet!  This is going to be a great boon to the future of Jupiter Broadcasting.  

Jeremy likey.

I really enjoy these chats.  They make me feel like I'm contributing more than just an incredibly handsome face to the company.

We've got PLANS, peeps.  This ain't no flash-in-the-pan media blitz, or here-today-gone-tomorrow hype machine.  The Big JB is here to stay, and we're looking at the future as a great big buffet with our names written all over it.

But not the crappy kind of buffet where the food's been sitting under warmers for 12+ hours, and the lettuce is mixed in with the cottage cheese, and all of the fried food tastes exactly the same regardless of which meat-like-substance is supposedly wrapped within their slightly moist exteriors.

The other kind.

Welcome to the blog of Jupiter Broadcasting's one-and-only (thank Heavens) Jeremy!

Within this blog, I intend to give viewers the opportunity to witness some of the behind-the-scenes magic that goes into our awesome podcasting efforts.  Keep in mind that I'm the LEAST tech-savvy of the folks currently involved with Jupiter Broadcasting, so this blog will primarily be in regards to media information, publicity, and exciting news.

Since our show "STOked" is my primary project, this blog is likely to show a bit of favoritism toward that particular title.  However, I also work behind the scenes on "Computer Action Show," "Beer is Tasty," and "Coding with Bryan" as well as occasionally helping out with "Joint Failures" .... which is really our entire current line-up!  So rest assured that I shall speak on behalf of YOUR favorite show on occasion, regardless of which you enjoy most.

Here's a little something to whet your appetites!

Jupiter Broadcasting on  

We recently finalized a deal that now enables TiVO users to download and watch episodes of "Beer is Tasty" on demand!

I'm in yer livin' room.  Drinkin' yer beerz.

Truth be told, I don't have much info on this, since I myself do not own a TiVO!  The details I do have:

• We're on there.
• It's awesome.

So there you have it.
