"Update 88SLIDE blog" has been on my to-do list since December, as I didn't really know how to share this sentiment.<br /><br />We're gettin' there, I promise you. <br /><br />Other developments...Rachel is in North Cali, we just celebrated Blaine's birthday, and I'm on a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Getting_Things_Done"> GETTING THINGS DONE </a> kick.

Host Sunny Gault spent some time with us one evening as we taped Blaine's insert of the winner reveal. I also taped a mock episode with Sunny so she could see how we put an episiode together...<br /><br />In the same episode, Sunny spent some time with a great friend of mine, Doug Cheney, one of the directors of SAM HAS 7 FRIENDS. Doug was the Director of Photography for the Tommy Lee Goes to College project I worked on more than 2 years ago. I spent a few minutes trying to find a picture of Doug and me from our time in Lincoln; I'll dig one up...<br /><br />The 88SLIDE segment starts about halfway through...<br /><center><br /><embed src="http://www.veoh.com/multiplayer.swf?type=v&permalinkId=e159121wsQxKwtD&id=1" width="425" height="340" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed></center><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23019042-116400853118758208?l=www.88slide.com%2Fblog%2Findex.htm'/></div>Noahnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23019042.post-1162544055751612602006-11-03T00:52:00.000-08:002006-11-17T08:47:55.826-08:00We'd love to feature you in an upcoming VIEWER SPOTLIGHT...<br /><br /><a href="info@88slide.com"> Drop us an email</a> if you're interested, and in the meantime - check out VIEWER SPOTLIGHT submissions from others in our growing family!<br /><center><br /><a href="http://www.88slide.com/blog/2006/10/viewer-spotlight-daniel-lopez.html">Daniel Lopez</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.88slide.com/blog/2006/08/viewer-spotlight-dave-decker.html">Dave Decker</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.88slide.com/blog/2006/07/viewer-spotlight-john-beaudry.html">John Beaudry</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.88slide.com/blog/2006/06/viewer-spotlight-paul-branham.html">Paul Branham</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.88slide.com/blog/2006/06/viewer-spotlight-brian-shunamon.html">Brian Shunamon</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.88slide.com/blog/2006/06/viewer-spotlight-mike-helms.html">Mike Helms</a><br /></center><br />Ladies?

It's in the top 100 most viewed entertainment videos on their site. <br /><br /><center><object width="298" height="245"><param name="movie" value="http://youtube.com/v/OTHhvTtaVX8"></param><embed src="http://youtube.com/v/OTHhvTtaVX8" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="298" height="245"></embed></object></center><br />A lot of people have asked me why I think this episode broke out on YouTube, and it wasn't because it was featured on the front page (like our Pi Day episode).<br /><br />Rather, I think it's 80% because of the Spanish speaking users who sent this around virally, and 20% because we had this episode available with the proper keywords ON the day OF Cinco de Mayo, as opposed to all the videos from office parties, etc...that happened AFTER Cinco de Mayo. In addition, since this was really the first Cinco de Mayo since YouTube was "known" - we had some of the only related content up there. The fact that the day landed on Friday, when a ton of bored office workers typed it in, definitely helped.<br /><br />Once it broke out, it got on the DIRECTOR VIDEO side panel, and there ya go...<br /><br />On another note, time is REALLY flying by. I'm looking through some of our archives and for instance, I can't believe we produced this episode in April and it's now November. <br /><br /><center><object width="298" height="245"><param name="movie" value="http://youtube.com/v/LG_hayu6SEM"></param><embed src="http://youtube.com/v/LG_hayu6SEM" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="298" height="245"></embed></object></center><BR><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23019042-116254352870191109?l=www.88slide.com%2Fblog%2Findex.htm'/></div>Noahnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23019042.post-1162194498460668112006-10-29T23:45:00.000-08:002006-11-02T04:16:34.483-08:00Coming up this week on 88SLIDE...<br /><br />MONDAY: Old-man-Rogers yelled at Rachel for stepping on his lawn, and now Rachel gets her sweet revenge on Mischief Night!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.88slide.com/blog/uploaded_images/2006_10_30-734922.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://www.88slide.com/blog/uploaded_images/2006_10_30-720840.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />TUESDAY: Join your "boo", Rachel, on a special Halloween episode of 88SLIDE...It'll be not-so-scary and sorta-but-not-really funny!

Take a <a href="http://www.88slide.com/blog/uploaded_images/88slidetribute.mp3" target="_blank" >listen here to the MP3 version,</a> or download and save it to your iPod...<br /><br />Below are the lyrics to Daniel's tribute song:<br /><font size =2> <i><br />Every morning I wake up to find you there smiling at us<br />Every morning I wonder, wonder if I will win today<br />Did I, did I get it right this time - was it 'A' or maybe was it 'B'?<br />But I don't know because Rachel and Blaine will tell me soon, soon, soon...<br /><br />And do they have a special guest today, I don't know, I don't know<br />But I've never seen Noah, does he really exist?<br />And what will Rachel say today?<br /><br />Sometimes you bring on special guest, I love them all so much!<br />But sometimes you get a little crazy, like jumping in a pool<br />And one time you did the whole commentary with a hula hoop<br />I was kinda scared for you, I don't know why<br />Because I just wanna know, wanna know if I will win today...<br /><br />88SLIDE you're always with me when I need you the most<br />And 88SLIDE I have you RRS bookmarked on my homepage<br />And maybe someday I will win a prize<br />And maybe I can bribe you with this song, with this song...<br /><br />We love you Rachel you know its true<br />And Blaine you're wild, I'd like to party with you!<br />But Noah, Noah I've never seen you, never seen you<br />You're like an albratross, you're like an albatross to us!<br /><br />88SLIDE The One Minute Daily Trivia!<br />I cannot win, I cannot seem seem to win!<br />I wanted the rice cooker, I wanted the GPD, I wanted the camera, but I got none of them<br />That's okay, I'm loyal to the end!<br /><br />88SLIDE, 88SLIDE you're always there for us, for us<br />Every morning it's like a little Christmas Gift on my computer screen<br />Oh yeah! <br /></font size =2> </i><br /><br /><a href="http://www.88slide.com/blog/uploaded_images/lopez2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px;" src="http://www.88slide.com/blog/uploaded_images/lopez2.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />NAME: Daniel Lopez<br /><br />AGE: 23<br /><br />LOCATION: Austin, Texas<br /><br />OCCUPATION: Auditor / Musician<br /><br />HOW DID YOU FIND OUT ABOUT 88SLIDE?: I was surfing through <a href="http://www.youtube.com/88slide">YouTube</a> a long time ago looking for cool content when I came across one of your trivia questions. I was like, "Hey! That's awesome!"...been a fan ever since.<br /><br />FAVORITE EPISODE: Being a big 007 fan, my favorite episode would have to be "<a href="http://www.88slide.com/video.php?video=archive/2006/04/2006_04_27.mov">Host vs. Spy</a>" Rachel could definitely be an undercover agent!<br /><br /><br />WHAT I LIKE ABOUT 88SLIDE: I like the ever changing locations, the unique special guests and the team you guys have created. You've actually brought a little joy to the usually boring podcast I see on the net. And another thing I like is you guys really seem to be having fun and enjoying what you do, and that's always a cool thing.<br /><br />WHERE I WATCH 88SLIDE: I try to watch at work because I am able to catch the latest episodes almost immediately. I work overnight so I can hit the site as soon as a new day begins. It's one of the benefits of my job! Get payed to play!<br /><br />WHEN DO YOU WATCH 88SLIDE: I watch it whenever I can. I usually try to be either at work or at home relaxing. I have to make sure I focus, I never want to get an answer wrong! Which I have done a few times! Doh!<br /><br />ANYTHING ELSE?: I hope 88SLIDE is around for a long time! I never seem to to get enough of the trivia and sillyness that is abound every morning. You've picked the perfect host for the job and the announcer is wild! And I'm sure the rest of the team is just as great! You guys have a wonderful show going and I look forward to many mornings to come with 88SLIDE.<br /><br /><br />Thanks Daniel! We appreciate your 60 seconds, daily - and are happy to have you as part of our family!<br /><br />If you'd like to be featured in an upcoming VIEWER SPOTLIGHT, <a href="mailto:info@88slide.com">drop us an email!</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23019042-116025951735638593?l=www.88slide.com%2Fblog%2Findex.htm'/></div>Noahnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23019042.post-1160016122983900642006-10-04T19:38:00.000-07:002006-10-04T19:42:03.016-07:00<a href="http://www.88slide.com/blog/uploaded_images/1trackmind.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px;" src="http://www.88slide.com/blog/uploaded_images/1trackmind.gif" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />Quick lil' plug for my friend Mark's video podcast - 1TRACKMIND - which is a hybrid of comedy and sex news...Check 'em out by <a href="http://www.1trackmind.com/">clickity-clackin' here!</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23019042-116001612298390064?l=www.88slide.com%2Fblog%2Findex.htm'/></div>Noahnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23019042.post-1159911289193278202006-10-03T14:34:00.000-07:002006-10-04T02:55:46.760-07:00<center><object width="298" height="245"><param name="movie" value="http://youtube.com/v/_xD36Fbjn7w"></param><embed src="http://youtube.com/v/_xD36Fbjn7w" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="298" height="245"></embed></object></center><BR><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23019042-115991128919327820?l=www.88slide.com%2Fblog%2Findex.htm'/></div>Noahnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23019042.post-1159664523196645112006-09-30T18:02:00.000-07:002006-09-30T18:03:18.616-07:00<center><p class="mobile-photo"><img width="200" src="http://www.88slide.com/blog/mobile_images/Photo 426-723197.jpg"/></center></p><p class="mobile-post">In the middle of editing Monday's episode, I escaped for a quick sushi <br />snack at my favorite place in L.A....Sushi Minori....the rest is for the <br />birds!</p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23019042-115966452319664511?l=www.88slide.com%2Fblog%2Findex.htm'/></div>Noahnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23019042.post-1159542401274065322006-09-29T07:57:00.000-07:002006-09-29T08:06:41.330-07:00Rachel and I taped part of a live episode in front of an audience at Podcast Academy IV yesterday....I'm gonna see if I can work in Blaine saying "88SLIDE is taped in front of a live studio audience" for that ep...just like the good 'ol days...<br /><br />First I gave a speech about 88SLIDE, then called Rachel up front for this segment.
