he exciting conclusion!
Dead Idea Valhalla Neo Tokyo Ep.1
I know it's bad form to end on a cliff hanger but consider this a sorbet between thrilling episodes of your regularly scheduled program. I've been threatening forever and here it is. New Dead Idea Valhalla. Will this trend continue? Maybe!
The first part is just sort of a check in on the general shambles of my life. It's aimless but what else is new?
The song is from the covers club, one of the entries I'm really happy about.
The final part, which is really the reason why I wanted to do the episode, is born of a conversation I was having with my funny girlfriend about Moby Dick. Enjoy! Tell me what you think. More demand might equal more episodes.
22. Emerald Wasps
First up, I love this pair of episodes. This catchy little bit in the first part is improvised, one of the few times having a keybaord right next to me worked out. Watch out for hints in this first part as to what's going to happen!
So, other than hints, I have this little bit about secrets (theme!)
The middle song is R'yleh, a song from an EP available at my site. (theme!)
And then shit happens! Again, I'm very proud of how these two episodes turned out. Silly, dated, but still this makes me smile.
21. Hitting Me is Like Climbing a Mountain
Lots to like here! I love this pair of episodes, I like this weird direction for the show. First off, the season 2 theme music, which I really enjoy.
The music episode I mention is the first episode of Talk About Music, a side show I did that I'll probably put on my own personal site at some point. The first is a bit about violence in my life, which plays a really small part! Hooray!
In the middle, a song from an album that you can find on my site. Again: www.garybutterfield.net. If you like it, go grab it!
In the 2nd half, we have a really long bit about my feelings on religion/god. Take it or leave it! Some of my opinions on this have softened a little. I still don't believe at all but I deeply love some believers. Conflict! A weird episode for a season premeire but things get weirder next episode.
20. Book Boy Rides Again (Season Finale!)
Just listen to that throat clear! It was so perfect I had to use it!
Why do I always want to organize things in seasons? I talk about it a little bit here but it doesn't make much sense. Still, this contains my masterful Danny Elfman impression (recently referenced on Watch Out For Fireballs!) and then some fun high school stories.
Pretty fun Midnite Snax song about cats and then, hoo boy.
I'm not sure that Willy Thimbles and Robert Moulet are quite worthy of a season finale. I take a break between this season and the next and it was desperately needed. I brought these guys back in the finale and I think they might be the most obscure, technically recurring characters in the show.
