The dust has settled. The new studio layout has been, erm, laid out and Episode 31 of This Reality Podcast is being beamed straight in to your ears from our new location in rural Oxfordshire, England, UK, That’s on Planet Earth!
To celebrate this World Class Event – the successful navigation down 125 miles of the M40 motorway – we continue with the same old format: Top Class music, Screwed News, Streams of Information and Average Conversation – all just waiting for you to join in. Just check out the podcast admin details below to see how you can join in.
The music in this episode is:

3. Irene B – Forgive Me Now (http://www.myspace.com/irenebmusic)
4. We Are They – Fade (http://www.myspace.com/wearethey)
And in between the excellent music, the average conversation:

* Religious doctrine getting in the way of good health
* Religious doctrine promoting itself just because it can
* An 8 year old girl filing for divorce from a 58 year old man – more religious news
* Olympic showboating in Beijing and fears of Britain cocking The 2012 Olympics up
* The Dunbartonshire woman with 14 children? Too much to believe? Yeah, me too
* Don’t call the police because your rabbit doesn’t have floppy ears!

Good show Mr Jones.
Bravo!
Thank you Mr Rhymez (or Mr B). Please feel free to lob in your thoughts on alternative business models for indie record labels. I think I’ve got my head around the capital/start up costs and that’s something I’m prepared to fund out of my own pocket.
What I need to work on now is determining the revenue/running costs and then match those little buggers to possible funding streams drawn from various income sources.
Any thoughts you’ve got would be warmly welcomed.
Bren. It is really lovely to listen to this. And we all think you are one cool guy!! A record label??
A very good podcasst, relaxed informational and amuzing. The Record Lable idea is interesting. I assume you would fund the business through percent age of earnings from record sales and so on.?
We are scarecrows and our dreams are crows
We’re black and White outside, but we bleed rainbows.
