U@L #25: Kicking it Old School, Bring a Spoon!

June 24th, 2009

Episode #25 is finally here. I hope you all are still listening.
Due to technical difficulties I am back to Audio at the moment. For this special throw back episode of U@L guests Dave and Mike of Mind Spiral Productions join me to talk about a topic that has probably affected most of us in the dating scene… Flakes.

As always check out the web site and send feed back if you like. I know I’ve been bad about doing podcasts so feel free to tell me how bad I am. :)

Peace out
Marvin

U@L #24: Tea Bagging!

April 17th, 2009


Enjoy a fresh cupping of Republican Outrage Rooibos.

Marvin is back and stirring up trouble as he attends a Tax Day Tea Party and gets the dip (or scoop) on what these Right Wingers are all of a sudden upset about. Do they even know?
Live Journal Blogger BlahTheQuah makes an impromptu guest appearance to help me poke one of these “fauxtesters” with a stick. It’s fun to watch them get all defensive when you ask them to actually explain what they are saying.

As always, write the show from the email links on the main page, subscribe and comment on iTunes and BluBrry.com and keep watching.

Ursus out!

Where is Ursus@Large?

March 30th, 2009

Hi All,

I’m not even sure if anyone actually reads the blog section of the show but I’m going to try this out anyway.
Things have been busy since I returned from my trip abroad and put together the big end of 2008 Podcast. Also I haven’t had the time, money or strength really to do anything all that interesting except one project that is just in it’s infancy stage. I think I have also backed myself into a corner in my decision to go all video for my podcast. In a way it limits what I can do with the show and it makes it more difficult to put out podcast frequently and regularly. So I’m stuck with the need to put out some content but I can’t think of anything interesting to do for the show. I would like to expand on the show and the web site content but I’m at a loss for where and how to do it.
So if there is anyone out there in podcast land that checks up on the site and reads the blog entries give some ideas or suggestions. What do you want to see or hear about?

Sincerely,
Marvin aka Ursusnoir

PS. Just added an RSS for the show on LiveJournal

U@L #23 : No, I’m not dead…

January 12th, 2009

U@L is back (finally) after a long break. What was I up to for 2 months? You’ll have to check out the podcast to see. November and December found Marvin to be a busy boy. I was even accused of being a “Circuit Bear.” Imagine that. Also, the Cold from Hell managed to put me down for the better part of December and into the New Year.
I’m finally feeling almost back to normal now and it’s time to start cranking out the podcasts again. I made up for the hiatus by Marvin outside of Big Ben 12/4/2008packing in some extra stuff into this one. (It’s 35 minutes long!) I’m actually pretty proud of this one so I think it’ll be worth the download time.

As always, send me some email and let me know what you think of the show. Also I love to get questions from anyone who watches so feel free to send those too. And please, if you get the show on iTunes, comment there too.

Until next time, sooner than later I promise….
Peace out!
Marvin

U@L #22: Bears of the Corn, and then some…

October 26th, 2008

Hi All,

Episode #22 of U@L ushers the show into the fall season with a trip out to the Corn Maze in Kent, WA with a small group of bears. Then from there we fly across the country to America’s flaccid wiener state, Florida, to take a glimpse at some of the goings on at Bear Bust 2008.

With the 2008 Presidential election just days away, we feature another short from Robert Greenwald’s Brave New Films focusing on the organization called Acorn that has been getting alot of negative press thanks to the false allegations of the McCain/Palin campaign. This short from brave new films helps to set the record straight where the main stream media has failed to do so.

Lastly, to end the show on a more up note, the YouTube video

    “Crank that Curry Sauce” from

Pari and Harvin is featured for Adventures on the Internet.

Oh yeah! And you also get to see me eat frogs legs for the first time.

Thanks for watching!
Marvin

U@L: Pain and Punditry

October 4th, 2008

It’s episode 21!
Marvin and Allen venture off to the Chrom Ohm tattoo parlor to get tattoos. Marvin is a veteran of the ink arts but this will be Allen’s first.
Also, in support of www.BraveNewFilms.com Marvin showcases the short film “The Real McCain” and talks about why he thinks, John McCain is a LYING SACK OF CRAP. (Well I don’t think it, I know it, the video proof is right there.)
And just to end things on a lighter note, Marvin rocks out to “When we were young” by the Killers on Guitar Hero.

Hi All,

It’s another video episode. This time I read some listener emails. We show some of the hi-jinx from Kamp Kodiak this year. (There is some partial nekkedity involved, tee-hee) I also premier a new segment for the video podcasts and I’m calling it Adventures on the Internet where I bring you my finds and follies on the vast network of inter-tubes. (WARNING- more nekkedity here). You’ve been warned.

U@L #019: Pride & Polemic

August 2nd, 2008

Pride - noun [prahyd]
The state or feeling of being proud.

Polemic - noun [puh-lem-ik]
A controversial argument, as one against some opinion, doctrine, etc.

It’s the Gay Pride video. This year the parade was a bit of a dud. More corporate than community, but Seattle’s Pride Foundation has had it’s share or controversy over the years and it’s affected the celebration.

Not to be left behind with the controversy, in the run up to Kamp Kodiak this year the NW Bears stir up a little bit of their own.

Thanks for watching and don’t forget to leave your comments at the website or SEND EMAIL
