I’m getting over my bout with strep throat, and feeling much better than last week. Thanks to some great homeopathic remedies and the power of big pharma, I’m on the road to recovery.

That’s how Brian phrased it before he unleashed this evil on me. Listen to their new track and you’ll know what Lucifer sounds like.

I was actually pretty fired up to do the show this week. I felt like I had some stuff to get off my chest and AC is always the perfect place to do that. It didn’t hurt that I have a nice collection of oddities to report on:

  • 97 Degrees Outside is Scarf Weather?
  • Why Is Life Insurance Such a Pain in the Ass?
  • 308-Pound Inmate Claims Jail is Starving Him
  • America, Fuck Yeah: Bush Has Highest Disapproval Rating, Blames Congress
  • Mighty Minute
  • Dirtbag of the Week: Josef Fritzl
  • Jimi Hendrix Sex Tape to Be Released

American Cliche on MSN

April 23rd, 2008

Woke up this morning to a link from Brian that the show had been covered on MSN today. Larry Carroll, who writes for media giant MTV and a slew of others, gave his take on some great podcasts:

“Are you a pod person? You know pod people when you see ‘em: They’re funny, hip, good cooks and always up on the latest news. They absorb information on their own schedule, aren’t plagued by commercials or vapid morning DJs and are typically found with a smile on their face and plugs in their ears.

Years ago, podcasting was heralded as a medium that would transform entertainment. After a few growing pains, that prediction is proving true, as legions of people now know few pleasures as great as discovering a new episode downloaded and waiting for them.”

Larry, then goes on to list AC alongside shows like Harry Shearer’s “Le Show,” “Ask a Ninja,” and USA Today’s “Pop Candy.”

Here’s what he said about us:

“For more than 100 episodes, the truth-is-stranger-than-fiction framework of “Cliche” has focused on stories bold, bizarre and bogus. Look beyond the freaks of the week, however, and you find host Scott Parent cultivating a sincere friendship with his fan base. Telling tales of his life and family that are often hilarious and always heartfelt, Parent’s “Cliche” is anything, but, well, cliche.”

Happy Earth Day from sunny California. Hopefully you got a chance to take a walk, play in a park, swim in an ocean or something else that made you feel good about today and our planet. While Kim was off at an appointment, I got a few hours alone with Emma and it made me really think about the kind of world I want to leave for her. If nothing else, this day gave me some pause.

The rest of the show:

  • Rock of Love II
  • Clinton Wins In Pennsylvania
  • Back From ad:tech
  • Drunk Man Unaware of Knife in His Back
  • Mighty Minute
  • Man Sues After Unwanted Rectal Exam
  • Red Sox Jersey Found in Concrete at New Yankee Stadium
