| EvenBob Member since: Jul 18, 2010 Threads: 231 Posts: 6400 | Don't forget, tonight is the first show with the Wiz as co-host of Gambling With an Edge. 10pm EST or 7pm west coast time, go to Bob Dancer's page and listen in. We should have a seperate thread where we can critique the show every week and make suggestions. I have one already: no khaki shorts.

Nobody has the same volume levels. And the overall volume isn't loud enough. I've listened to other podcasts that had volume problems, and wrote it off as being a problem because they were ameteur podcast productions. This is a REAL radio show! You'd figure they'd have the volume problem worked out! Whatever. I'll be downloading when available, and hopefully listening without straining to listen.

But how much does it cost to knock on wood? |

| EvenBob Member since: Jul 18, 2010 Threads: 231 Posts: 6400 | I have trouble hearing Dancer at times, he has a tendency to mumble. I think he's aware of it, you can hear him really trying to speak clearly, especially at the start of the show. This is why the big raido pro's like Hannity or Rush or Larry King have those deep voices, they're easily understood on the radio.

For some reason the sound was much better this show, do anything different? (Always good to have some praise after the criticism on the video [g]) PS: this is the link again http://www.bobdancer.com/radio.cfm PPS: the tune you are searching for: I'm fairly sure it was heard on the Benny Hill Show of years ago. I suspect it was already out there from something else, though. "Baccarat is a game whereby the croupier gathers in money with a flexible sculling oar, then rakes it home.

We already have a winner to the contest. The song it titled Mah Na Mah Na. It is originally attributed to an obscure Sweedish porno movie. However, it later gained fame on the Benny Hill Show, Sesame Street, and the Muppet Show. Since I watched all three of those shows, at different stages in life, I don't know where I picked it up from. Probably Benny Hill. The producer of the show said "Benny Hill" after the show, but I incorrectly corrected him, thinking of Yakety Sax. Evidently Mah Na Mah Na was played on that show as well. Can our UK members comment? It's not whether you win or lose; it's whether or not you had a good bet. |

I recognized it as a song played as background music for video being showed, but I couldn't place the show. I thought maybe Laugh In, they showed a lot of video just like Benny Hill did.

| DJTeddyBear Member since: Nov 2, 2009 Threads: 105 Posts: 5714 | Um, I was actually looking for the podcast, rather than the MP3 file. There are a variety of advantages to a podcast rather than an MP3. Among other things, the iPhone music player does additional things when it's playing a podcast rather than an MP3, such as a 30 second rewind button, and a 2X and 1/2X speed option.
