Lange on the Nick Dipaolo web show
Sunday, April 27th, 2008Last Thursday Artie appeared on Nick Dipaolo’s webcam show. Two hours of my life that I will never get back and if it weren’t for the alcohol and good chat with Mark of Marksfriggin.com I may have never gotten through it.
There was just something in the air that night, or maybe it was BlogTV’s shitty setup for handling such an event - A Stern fan event! I have to admit that Eric the Midget’s webcam on Stickam is much better - except that Eric is on it.
So anyways, Artie arrives 28 minutes late to Nick’s house and another 7 minutes after that we lose audio and video. The show had attracted some 500+ visitors and neither BlogTV or Nick were ready to handle it. It seemed that first hour for me was all about refreshing my screen and hoping the connection was back. Even when Artie started talking - he was eating [neighbor made him meatballs] during the first part of the show so the microphone wasn’t close enough to his mouth and he was hard to hear.
During the second half of the show [after Artie was done eating and users had settled down] it was much better. Artie had adjusted his microphone and did his usual repeat of stories and jokes we all have heard before. Then we actually had a little bit of a Q & A [if you can call it that] from Nick to Artie. Below is about 2 hours of audio condensed to just under 10 mins. There were alot of parts I wanted to keep in but instead I just kept it to topics you all might be interested in.
Such as - Artie’s take on:
- Teddy
- Artie’s would be replacement [John Diresta]
- The Bleeding Deacons
- Hot Chicks
- Dana
- Politics
- Political Correctness
- The Florida Gig
- Future Plans
- Getting a new assistant
- The crowds at shows
I apologize now if you don’t like it. The show was worse.
