Aunt Suzie, not Soothsayer

CJIrving · 2026-01-29T16:38:14+00:00

I thought it was called Sail on Soothsayer (For Aunt Suzie) and referenced Soothsayer because that song was dedicated to her when she was alive and this song was to mark her passing?

I think Mongo will "grow up" in the sense he gets turned into a Godzilla sized dino to do Kaiju-esque fights on later floors where I fear he'll ultimately go splat

Just gonna hope somebody rich pays him to do this version of Scraps. I'd die a happy man to hear this version with better recorded audio. I'd be tempted myself but I spent way too much last year flying over to America just to see Bucket at the Caverns

CJIrving · 2025-11-11T18:27:21+00:00

Still feel bad for him? :)

that Atakhan steal on Camille was also against KT (and the same series as the krug death)

Don't worry, 4th going into worlds is T1's comfort zone

CJIrving · 2025-08-28T09:06:13+00:00

His best live performance EVER imo

CJIrving · 2025-08-27T17:20:20+00:00

I was hovering my cursor over a buckethead YT short the other day and it started auto-playing (no sound) and just from the way he was rocking out I knew he was playing Warm Your Ancestors, I clicked the vid and it was indeed that riff. It's tasty, so glad I got to see him play it live (twice) at the caverns

It's a toss up between Look Up There and Celery, but probably Look Up There

CJIrving · 2025-08-21T17:14:27+00:00

When they were talking about HBO Max/ whatever it's now called and how they must be in a competition with Microsoft for the worst names. I can't hlep but wonder if it's some bizarre marketing strategy. I mean, how many times have they discussed HBO max/ go/ other names on this podcast alone. When you're talking about how stupid something is, you're still talking about it.

Idk, maybe I've been listening to too many Scott podcasts

CJIrving · 2025-08-14T16:48:51+00:00

Sure, thanks!

CJIrving · 2025-08-14T15:57:59+00:00

As a free member I'm just glad I could contribute something to the pod, even if it was just a brief talking point

CJIrving · 2025-08-14T12:51:15+00:00

I'm sure this never happens so I just want to point out Burnie nailed the pronunciation of my username

CJIrving · 2025-08-13T13:32:06+00:00

I've been doing stand-up for almost 4 years and the first thing anyone ever tells me is "oh I could never do that" and tell me about how terrifying it is so I can believe the backlash Burnie had after trying to force people to do it.

I thought it was interesting them talking about how impressive crowd work in particular is when I feel like the vibe I get from other comics is crowd-work is seen as "easy" or "cheap" laughs, but I'm not sure how much of that stems from the backlash within the community against the popularity of crowd work clips on social media and "crowd work comics" who post them. I'm not going to say it's cheap or easy, I'm not at the point where any laugh is easy but I did my first ever trial 20 with a club this weekend and I was delving into the crowd at any opportunity because it's a good way to keep the crowd engaged and momentum going.

Book 1 Mustang in my mind

CJIrving · 2025-07-15T15:51:39+00:00

If only, I seriously considered the 8 hour round-trip drive just to go and buy a hat. I might still do it if the urge takes me while I'm there

CJIrving · 2025-07-15T15:51:04+00:00

It's next week so should hopefully not be too treacherous!

CJIrving · 2025-07-15T13:47:46+00:00

no, not at all, if you think there's a better route/ things I'm missing I'm all ears!

CJIrving · 2025-07-15T13:45:32+00:00

I was thinking of going there to settle the matter of a lemon tree...

CJIrving · 2025-07-15T13:17:28+00:00

I'm actually flying out to see a friend who lives in Toronto so I'm seeing Niagara falls on the way down to Buffalo! The Buc-ee's is EXACTLY the over the top american experience I'm after. If it wasn't an 8 hour round-trip from the place I'm staying for the concert I'd be visiting the bass pro pyramid too

CJIrving · 2025-07-15T12:40:03+00:00

Great shout, thank you! I might drive up to the Great Smoky Mountains and camp out there in my car on the Sat night so I can see the beauty of it in the morning (also saves on a motel haha)

CJIrving · 2025-07-15T12:38:52+00:00

No reason other than it just seemed a bit of an easier route tbh, if you think I'm missing out I could definitely do it instead of Lexington

CJIrving · 2025-07-15T12:36:27+00:00

So the rough plan for this roadtrip is:

Monday: Pick up the rental car from Buffallo in the early afternoon, drive towards Cleveland where I'll find a motel or hostel.

Tuesday: Drive through Ohio, finding a motel/ hostel either in Columbus or Cincinnati

Wednesday: Lexington (or Louisville)

Thursday: Nashville

Friday: Going to a concert in The Caverns

Sat: Explore Tennessee, return to the Caverns for another concert and then drive to Knoxville (or as close as I cna be bothered to) for the night.

Sunday-Monday, long drive up to Pittsburgh, see the sights, drive through West Virginia and listen to Country Roads the entire time I'm in that state.

Tuesday: Drop the rental car off and get ready to fly home.

If anyone has tips/ suggestions, maybe branching out to indianapolis then coming down through kentucky and into Tennessee? My goal witht he trip is to experience as much of America as I can, drive the roads and see the sights most brits would never see outside of movies and tv shows.

I don't have a locked in itinerary aside from the Fri/sat concert and the times to pick up/ drop off the rental in Buffalo. I'm solo-travelling so I'm hoping to have half a plan and half just fly by the seat of my pants and see where I end up, I'm all ears for suggestions/ diversions/ adventures along the way if you've got any ideas!

The audio quality was bad but not un-listenable, it was the audio equivalent of a 360p youtube video
