Jesus Phone & The 47%

Stimulated Boredom | Reviews. Gadgets. Gaming. Geek... ·

2012/09/22

The iPhone 5 is released with a new shade of lipstick and Mitt Romney thinks 47% of the country (which includes Grandma and active military personnel) are a bunch of freeloading bums and doesn’t want their vote. This week saw the release of the iPhone 5 – as I share my opinion of Apple’s newest innovation – which offers BRAND NEW FEATURES…that every smartphone released in the last 2 years already had. I spend a few minutes trying to wrap my head around why people would choose a closed OS that

This week I am joined by a very special guest…my mother. :) Over the past 7+ years of the show, many of you have heard very personal stories about my life growing up, which was instrumental in the development of my world view, personality, humor and opinions.

2012/08/04

Week of: August 6 – August 13, 2012 God, Gays…and Chicken? This week I sink my teeth into the meaty controversy surrounding comments made by Chick-fil-A President, Dan Cathy, which re-ignited (yet another) public debate over the topic of gay marriage. Social media exploded when Cathy told an online Southern Baptist publication that he and his family-owned restaurant chain are ‘‘guilty as charged’’ for openly — and financially — supporting groups that advocate for ‘‘the biblical definition of a

2012/06/22

Week of: June 25 – July 2, 2012 Prompted by a listener email, this week’s show revolves entirely around job hunting tips and how to increase your chances of landing the job that you want in a difficult economy. Leah, a listener in Pennsylvania, wrote to me and described her frustration and fear relating to the current economy and the difficulty that she and her boyfriend have had in finding a job – despite their degrees and experience.

"President Obama is out of touch with the average American and their economic concerns." - Said the guy who is building a $12 Million mansion on the beach with its own custom-built car elevator. Week of: June 11 – June 18, 2012 This week’s discussion begins with the campaign fundraising results for May – including what Romney’s superior $77 million-dollar haul could signify – in addition to the infusion of corporate money (thanks to the ‘Citizens United’ Supreme Court decision) into our

Week of: May 21 – May 28, 2012 This week I am joined by a new voice to the program, Elke, as we discuss Star Wars: The Old Republic and MMORPG gaming, as we put our full-frontal nerdery on display. As a lifelong gamer, I have always avoided the world of Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games (MMORPG) due to the “time-suck” associated with them. However, as a life long Star Wars fan, the draw of a game dedicated to its universe was simply too hard to pass up. On this week’s

Week of: May 14 – May 21, 2012 The topic of gay marriage made its way into the news again recently – conveniently during another election year – therefore I enlist the help of frequent guest-host, Patrick, as we discuss the subject within the context of equality, civil rights, religion and politics. My opinion on the topic is well known by long time listeners of the program, however the debate has been renewed this week, prompted by a ban on same-sex marriage in North Carolina…where you can

My Jedi Shadow Brings All The Sith To The Yard Week of: April 16 – April 23, 2012 I kick off this week’s program by briefly discussing my newest nerd obsession, “Star Wars: The Old Republic” (SWTOR) and my first experience with an MMORPG…n00b style. Is it worth trading an hour of sleep each night per level my character rises? Moving on to the week in news, I discuss the burden and hardship that Ann Romney had to endure while raising 5 boys full-time with only a mere $250 million in the bank,

Should George Zimmerman be arrested…or is he protected under Florida’s, “Stand Your Ground” law? Was the shooting racially motivated? Were the Sanford police department

Joining me to discuss MegaCon – which was held in Orlando – is Vanessa G from Girls-Gone-Geek.com, who also attended and would never miss the opportunity to discuss my experience as a comic convention virgin!

Week of: Feb 13 – Feb 20, 2012 The GOP primaries begin to heat-up as Rick Santorum sweeps in a surprising 3-State victory and talk of a possible brokered convention (although still unlikely) takes on a more serious tone. Nothing says “lack of vision and focus” like having a different candidate win each primary. ;) This week I also discuss much of the news over the past week, including President Obama’s misinformed and mistaken mandate that all religious organizations must make contraception

However, despite the soaring oratory and bi-partisan rhetoric, I offer an alternative intention to the speech and how it may lay the groundwork for the President’s entire re-election bid and how he plans to define the upcoming

Week of: Jan 23 – Jan 30, 2012 This week we are joined by crowd-favorite and resident geek-girl, Vanessa G, of Girls-Gone-Geek.com . It’s always a blast to have her on the program, as there is no telling where the conversation may veer! Vanessa doesn’t just have strong opinions on comic books, as demonstrated by the over 2.5 hour discussion of everything from SOPA – and the subsequent blackout of many popular sites (including our own) in protest – to an entertainment industry struggling to keep up

This is the part of politics that I enjoy, working the numbers and determining my predictions for what people can expect and should look out for in the coming weeks.
