When I ponder the GrodsThink stats after every episode, I’m always stumped as to who our second listener is. Of the two weekly downloads I know that one is Toaf, but my mum has confirmed that she’d “never listen to that shit again after the disgrace that was episode two” and my sister is waaaaay too busy. But now the mystery of the second listener has been solved.

Conservative blogger, J.F. Beck, has taken time out from writing lame slap-down posts about Antony Loewenstein and Jeremy Sear to write a lame slap-down post about GrodsCorp’s GrodsThink podcast.

HUMOUR SHIT-CANNED

Disappointing news:

A couple of readers have pointed out that this week’s GrodsThink episode hasn’t yet appeared. Well, that’s because it was shit and we decided not to publish it.

Yep, it would be pretty hard to top the previous effort featuring cock-monkies and titty-fucking.

Oh, come off it, Beck! Cockmonkeys and titty-fucking are awesome (even though I’m not sure Jose Ferdinand understands that “cockmonkey” is an insult and not a sexual practice.) And the sanctimonious attempted-slur is a bit rich considering that if you scroll down a bit from the anti-GrodsThink piece you’ll find a post that links to this photo and suggests none-too-subtly that Jeremy Sear engages in sexual activities with his cat.

When a bastion of good taste such as J.F. Beck’s blog accuses my site of being in poor taste, the shame I feel is palpable.

A couple of readers have pointed out that this week’s GrodsThink episode hasn’t yet appeared. Well, that’s because it was shit and we decided not to publish it. So we’re going to take a break for the next week or so while we work out how to make the podcasts better and more listenable. Apologies to our regular listener(s), and hopefully regular broadcasting will resume shortly.

Due to a week-long work commitment (hint: it starts with “c” and ends with “amp”) I will be away from Melbourne, the computer and the intertubes until Friday. As a result there will be no GrodsThink episode this week.

Sorry, Toaf.

We’re recording tonight’s GrodsThink podcast at Jeremy’s house, so this afternoon Craig sends an email to us all asking for Jeremy’s address. John Surname replied first with “21 Marx Lane” and the suburb in which Mr Sear resides. A couple of minutes later I get a Gmail chat message from Surname, quoting another Gmail chat message.

John: “Craig: Its not coming up on google earth or google maps” HAHA

Gold.

Oh, and speaking of gold, here’s a photo I took recently of Craig looking ridiculous.
