Gordcast
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.
Gordcast Episode 29 - Tie Your Mother Down!

Gordie is joined by his mom, RUTH ADAMS!

We begin the conversation with EC COMICS talk and why Ruth and Gordie turned out the way they did. Ruths mom goes into scary neighborhoods to spread the Planned Parenthood gospel in the 50's, Ruth gets married and moves to California. Gordie puts a bean up his nose, digs a hole and gets his Halloween candy stolen. (...again.)

Ruth remembers waking up Christmas morning with a fully decorated tree, confuses "Special Olympics" with "Cub Scout Olympics" and goes for a walk in the sunshine.

QUEEN at the beginning and end.

Gordcast Episode 28 - This Is It!

Paul Bertolino and Gordie begin by discussing the re-opening of the fabled UPTOWN THEATER in Napa. Gordie doesn't know who to obsess about, mentors kids at the skatepark and their cassette tape making and watches BIG FAN. Paul buys DVD sets from the 70's and has met BRIAN POSEHN less times than Gordie has, even though his roommate is friends with him.

PAUL SINGS!  

Gordie "tweaks his amp" and we forget to talk about W.A.S.P. til after the outro.

Gordcast Episode 26 - Where's Your Cape!

Paul Bertolino is rocking the nation once again, mere minutes before taking the stage.

Paul can't wait to get out of the hotel room, reveals the guy who wore the cape at Napa High and still doesn't have TV (...even if the WHO are playing at the Super Bowl)

Gordie tells of fan recognition, likes the ANVIL documentary, watches the Super Bowl Halftime Show, realizes that KISS is the Sinatra of his generation and would appreciate some sort of feedback. 

(...Comedy after the outro.)

Gordcast Episode 25 - Birds Don't Eat Donuts!

Gordie is joined by Nathan Alfaro and Adam Sullivan in picturesque Petaluma CA to discuss the super-special, ultimate directors cut of WATCHMEN. Adam builds a C3PO model and then destoys it. Nathan encourages Gordie to watch 30 Rock. Kids say the darndest things and Gordie is nearly finished with Battlestar Gattica. We all get the details of SUPERMAN IV wrong and we wrap up with opinions of the new STAR TREK movie.     (NERD-FEST!)

...technical issues occured, making some weird edits, but enjoy never the less.

Gordcast Episode 24 - This Is Not A Reunion! Gordie and Paul meet up with Bridget in Napa for a Gordcast All-Stars summit.  Bridget fails to wear her ever-present Ugg boots, has a bit to learn about bears and reveals that she has a little something in common with Joanie.  Gordie's gotta hand it to Lady Gaga, does not feel that Leather Tuscadero is butch, and is a much bigger fan of Filter than anyone had bargained for.  Paul had a mustache in Jr High, makes sure KISS gets an honorable mention, and clears up that Alice Cooper rumor.
