Feikushima 「フェークシマ」 |
A proposed opening for the Fake-a-shima segment back when
Fukushima fear-mongering was a news cycle staple. Alas, it fell out of
the news cycle before Adam could ever (if he liked it) use it.
It's a mash-up of music found on YouTube, with the voice being
the Mac OS X speech synth "Kyoko," because — as I told Adam —
"I currently lack a female Japanese native speaker to do my bidding."
(I must say, that is damn good speech synthesis!)
Ethnomusicologists will likely cringe at this
biwa and ko-tsuzumi pairing.

88 & 73 |
Proposed replacement for the old-style Morse code "88" and "73,"
generated by my CW Station software. At the time it seemed to sound
cleaner. I believe Adam adopted the "73" and kept the old "88."

TWiT Dude Named Ben |
Jason Chaffetz' "dude named Ben" set to the catchy This Week in Tech
tune. Bonus: JCD's "Gibson's nuts" (referring to Steve Gibson) from TWiT
#451. I don't think Adam cares for his little BSoD quote at the end —
I have considered removing it.

Obama Porky Pig |
Pretty much self-explanatory, I guess. First played on
Show 658.
Porky Pig song courtesy of (where else) YouTube.

Dr. Kiki Trelawney |
Dr. Kiki's "it was worth it!" mashup with Professor Sybil Trelawney
in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. A minor fit of
inspiration that turned out to be something of a dud. This is in
spite of the fact that it's probably the most complex GarageBand
project represented here (which isn't necessarily saying much).

TWiT Fry |
In response to the
Show 711 vocal fry segment
I go into one-trick pony mode.

I Go To An Extreme |
In response to JCD's frequent use of the phrase "to an extreme,"
I set a mashup to a familiar Billy Joel tune.

A View To a Kill Kill Kill |
One of James Comey's ISIS
"kill kill kill"
memes wrapped in Duran Duran goodness.

Obama "No No No" Tabla |
The first, and IMHO least, of the Obama "no no no" jingles.
Getting the alignment right in Garageband was nigh impossible.
If you have good ears you can hear it go off the rails at the
end of the frenetic tabla section.

Gray's Donation Clips |
Not a jingle at all, but rather two clips I pulled
from a
Radiolab show (Adam's favorite!) released
a suspiciously short time after the first Planned Parenthood
documentaries came to light, basically extolling the virtues
of fetal tissue donations. Coincidence, I think not!

Two-channel Buzzer |
The "new" No Agenda left-channel-only buzzer massaged into
a less annoying form and tweeted to Adam. I think this, or something
nearly identical, has been adopted as of
Show 797,
but I am not sure.

North Korean Juice |
A mashup requested by Sir Reddy Kilowatt on Show 801's producer
segment – alas unfulfillable by Adam. Perhaps we can think of this
as a producer-created make-good.
