Gordcast (podcasts)
Now in it's XXth? year, Gordie Adams' Gordcast covers music, comic books, movies, television, memories, nostalgia, current events and whatever else comes up in conversations with friends and sometimes in an informal interview with someone Gordie wants to know more about. Fellow aficionado Paul Bertolino joined as co-host of the Gordcast for the majority of episodes and along the way, Gordie welcomed a roster of special guests. After a hiatus he is back and invites you to hang out with the Gordcast for entertaining conversation and good company. Join us and have fun! Bonus episodes of The Gordcast Shuffle (wherein Gordie and Paul each gave three random spins to their vast music collections and talk in wonderful detail about the songs that show-up) are included in the same feed.

Episode 47 - Double Ontegrity (Boonies All Around!)

Paul and Gordie are joined by JULIE McKIM for a Gordcast exclusive. Julie connects PETCO with Andy Warhols Factory and we begin with LADY GA GA, DIAMONDSNAKE, LED ZEPPELIN , BLACK ANGELS, MGMT, LAURA NYRO, DALE BOZZIO, ERLAN, BOB DYLAN and finally get to THE FOO FIGHTERS. Gordie loves the new Foo Fighters and convinces Paul, though julie needs no convincing.

We discuss producers and Julie dances like PAT BENATAR as a hooker. Taylor Hawkins sings like Dennis Wilson and we find out what street we grew up on.

Paul sings! Gordie sings!    ...and Julie does not in public or private, because she is the Dangerous Aunt.  Ramble on!

Episode 44 - Pot Beland!

Gordies voice is doubled and echoed all through his talk with TOM BELAND. We begin by talking about Canadian Parliment which slams full on into a 20 minute Marijuana discussion, complete with pizza and The Legend Of Zelda. Sports is up next with World Series talk, posting football scores in the window for the guys at the bakery across the street from the Lovejoy Mansion, sports cosplay and how STRAT-O-MATIC BASEBALL is more fun than D&D.

We finally get around to talking TRUE STORY SWEAR TO GOD and Toms internet goes down.

Hope you can get through, but honestly, Tom does most of the talking.

Episode 43 - Four  Monkees At The Table!

In an unprecedented Gordcast, Gordie and Paul wrangle previous guest: Nathan Alfaro and new guest: Brian Nash to provide a glimpse into when four friends get together around a mic and let fly. (...Gordie a little too much.)

MIKE NESMITH seems to be the main topic, but we hit on THE MONKEES, JUDAS PRIEST, THE FOO FIGHTERS, PRINCE THE BANANA SPLITS, BURT WARD, WIL WHEATON, the roots of Alt Country and way too much table banging for emphasis.

The sound can be a bit jarring at times, so hold onto yer ears.

Gordie is joined by Ty Domke to talk about music, UFOs and plumbing. Ty goes to his first concert at the LA Forum, wants to play her-monica and knows a little bit about a lot of things. Joe Satriani sets off the fire alarm at The Uptown Theater where the sound is incredible. Big Country and UFO makes Gordie smile and we finish up talking about wine, Maynard from Tool and Art Bell.  (Jake Shimabukuro, The Rolling Stones, KISS, The Doors, The Southern Death Cult, Jimi Hendrix, The Who and Huey Lewis also come up.)

Episode 41 - A Hard Dorks Night!   ( ...dorks like us.)

Paul Bertolino joins Gordie to discuss the weather once again. (Paul finally buys winter boots!)

Gordie plays gin rummy with his family and compiles his favorite Beatles songs and stays "posi 2011." 

We discuss SGT PEPPER (the movie) and other Robert Stigwood gems. We compare and contrast Saturday Night Fever with Samurai Night Fever and locations in and around Brooklyn.

Gordie delivers christmas parcels to Austalians and we confuse KANSAS with STYX with PARADISE ALLEY.
