<Cheetolini vs. Rocket Man – The World Crisis>
Greetings,
To turn Smile Jamaica radio into the Smile Jamaica podcast, I need to record a digital signal from the soundboard. I take that .mp3 recording and begin my edits and voila. Smile Jamaica Podcasts
On-demand media is where it’s at. But lately I have had meltdowns in the Studio with electrical gremlins or crashed recordings. Grrr.
Luckily, my job as a Sound Editor: I ripped the KRCL stream from their site, ran it through a file converter and away we go!
LOCAL CRISIS
WORLD CRISIS
So when I spun Al Campbell‘s massive jam, World Crisis, I couldn’t help think how my petty problems pale to Trump vs. Kim and nuclear weapons.
Like a baby playing with a rattlesnake!
Then in that crummy mood, I played a second version/cover of Bob Marley’s So Much Trouble in the World (Carlene Davis)
You see men sailing on their ego trips
Blast off on their spaceships
Million miles from reality
No care for you, no care for me
So even if Bob gives the hairy eyeball to the Space Force, I’ve been watching Project Bluebook on the History Channel. Allen J. Hynek and the birth of the UFO “conspiracy”
And speaking of Bob Marley and conspiracies. Alex Jones thinks the CIA killed Bob Marley. (As do I). Uh oh. I hope I don’t start linking to Infowars
bless, Bobbylon
