Marv’s Midlife Meanderings

  Saturday November 27th 2021 The Blurb - Not much sleep on Saturday again, as per usual. Got the episode of Pods Like Us with Greg & Russ ready for Sunday release, albeit still needing the promos putting into place.   I got those promos on the work file ready to put into place on Sunday to come out on Sunday. Busy at work with an extra job on, but of course I won’t mention specific jobs here.  The ‘casts - (Notes spoken to Siri, and edited later if I remember)! The Bright Sessions - (0:52) season 5 episode 1: July 16 2018: Dr Bright is speaking with a patient named Myra. Astral projection. Roadside altercation. The library. Drug references. Suicidal mentions. 2 to 4%. “Better a witch than a pitchfork wielding villager.” Message on Sarah’s desk. “Welcome to the monkey house.”  Things We Said Today - (3:52) episode 355: the guys are speaking with director Peter Jackson. I love the fact that Peter explains what the beeps are about on the Nagra Reels. Hey Jude video. Dennis O’Dell. Th

  Friday November 26th 2021 The Blurb - Happy birthday to me… Some birthday when you get in from work at half past eight in the morning, knowing that you have to leave for work at 4 o’clock in the afternoon. I set the alarm clock for 3pm, but was awoken by Louise receiving a phone call from her sister, who had    not long got out from a hip operation.    I could joke and say “hip hop-eration”, but first of all it’s not really something I should probably joke about, plus it’s not Sally’s sort of music.    Sally and Dave (her husband) love the music of Status Quo, and have seen them live probably around forty times I would guess. I don’t think that’s an exaggeration either!  So that call was from around twenty to two until twenty to three, and the main bedroom is the only place you can talk on the phone without sounding like you’re either an old broadband dial up tone, or a phasing in and out robot. I decided it was useless trying to grab back that hour, because I don’t want to just get

  Thursday    November 25th 2021 The Blurb - I watched around half an hour or so of the new three part Get Back documentary about The Beatles, and compiled (directed) by Peter Jackson. I got a fair nunber of podcasts listened to, which included listening through the episode of Pods Like Us with Greg & Russ, that I recorded on Wednesday night! The ‘casts - (Notes spoken to Siri, and edited later if I remember)! 3 Minute Lesson - (0:03) episode 048: May 27 2020: The last actual case of smallpox.  The Bright Sessions - agent plum. The order. “I’m the new director.”  ars Paradoxica - (0:28) season 2 episode 11 - Jailbreak: February 1 2017: Sally fills us in on what’s going on. How many Petras? “Wheelchair bound crypto fascist.”  3 Minute Lesson - (0:03) episode 049: May 28 2020: “the smallpox Cold War”.  Phase Zero - (0:56) episode 46: November 24 2021: Brandon, Jenna, Jamie & Aaron. Spider-Man No Way Home tv trailers. I still think a surprise is that a lot of the Doctor Strange fo

Tuesday November 23rd 2021 Tuesday… Here  I am on Friday trying to think about what I did on my two days off - Tuesday and Wednesday. I got in at around twenty past nine in the morning, and I slept from half past ten until 1pm. We went out to town, parking at Wilkinson’s for around 4pm or so, walking around, with me avoiding spending money that I shouldn’t spend.  That’s as much as I can remember now that I’m carrying on writing the following Monday! We did finally watch the film Ad Astra, which I thought I would like anyway, but bit did much as I did… Damn great film!  Wednesday November 23rd 2021 So, very quickly then… We didn’t go to see Ghostbusters Afterlife because I had forgotten that I was due to record an episode of the George Harrison podcast. Both of the episodes of Marvel’s Hawkeye were fabulous, and I also recorded a great episode of Pods Like Us with Greg & Russ from DIY For Business.

  Monday November 22nd 2021 The Blurb - I didn’t get the greatest of sleep on Monday… I got in from work at around seven in the morning, asleep for around eight, woke up for a tinkle at one, and was wide awake. I wish that I could have slept for longer.  Note to self - don’t drink so much towards the end of the shift because even if I go before bed, I still wake up to go! So many shows listened to in the night, but feel bad that I’m behind on shows like Spocklight, Reelblend, Filmsack, Punky Radio, Adam & Craig’s Guilty Pleasure Cinema, and so many more… The ‘casts - (Notes spoken to Siri, and edited later if I remember)! 3 Minute Lesson - (0:03) episode: date: talking about robotripping, which is a thing with the cough medication DMX.  2 Legs - Tom and Andy are chatting with Laurence Juber about the final tour of Wings in November/December 1979. Earl Hokenen/Earl Oink. Robby The Robot. Very echoey sound throughout, that was incredibly difficult to listen to.  DIY For Business - (0

  Sunday November 21st 2021 The Blurb - I got in from work for around 6am, and woke up at around 1pm I think. Promos were placed into the episode of Pods Like Us, and the show was posted up - LINK   There were a few things going off in the shift at work, but at least I had great podcasts to listen to.  The ‘casts - (Notes spoken to Siri, and edited later if I remember)!
