Weird Medicine Star Trek Promos

Filed under: Steve's Blog — dr steve @ 10:31 pm

Double Vasectomy Todd started this idocy by going to the Trek Yourself website and doing a Romulan “Weird Medicine” promo.   The result can be seen here.  We’ll explain the whole “Fecalicious the helmet polisher” injoke on the air May 2 at 5pm EDST.

This is Big A’s version.  Andrew makes one creepy-ass serial killer looking Vulcan.

Here’s mine. I’m a dope.  There is an in-joke at the end for all those who have really been paying attention to the Liam vs Dave thing.  For everyone else, I just sound like a goof.

…we may even give some sort of awful prize for our favorite.   We’re not promising anything.

Here are a couple of fan created masterworks:

“Most Mediocre of” Weird Medicine Aired April 25 2009

Filed under: Podcast — dr steve @ 11:08 pm

Ok, it went like this…

Someone canceled their 9pm Saturday Night Virus show (who would do such a thing?) and “Special Delivery” stepped up to the plate.   This left their regular 6pm slot open.  Big Kev had the 5pm slot, so Erock asked us if we could do a show on really short notice (like less than a day).  As the typical Weird Medicine show takes me an average of 8 hours of show prep over several nights, I figured why not try a “Best of” show.   We’ve been doing this for 2 years, surely we have enough material to do a one hour retrospective.  Ugh, I was so sick of hearing my own voice drone on and on as I was reviewing the old shows, I really despaired that we’d be able to put together a credible show.

Double Vasectomy Todd and PA John were able to make it (Jefferson the Shyster being in court that day) so we did it “Live on tape” rather than just compiling a bunch of crap and calling it a show.

I asked Erik to send us all of our XM material (there’s 7 1/2 hours of live stuff) in good quality audio so we can make a “real” best of some day.

Anyway, this was a fun experiment;  hope you enjoy it.

April 18th 2009 Weird Medicine

Filed under: Podcast — dr steve @ 11:02 pm

This may be a turning point for us;  for the first time we started to feel really comfortable just talking about stuff;   we’re really trying to work on an entertaining “conversation about health care” which can be a pretty dry subject.   We do have fun with it, as the finale of the AssCrack Challenge demonstrates.  I think Erock told us that the new powers that be at Sirius will be listening to this one.   Hope we don’t just get tossed summarily off the air. 🙂

Contents:

PA John’s baby (which one is the real baby?)

Gargantua and Pantagruel

Filed under: Steve's Blog — dr steve @ 11:19 pm

We’ll be serializing this on “Weird Medicine”, but for those who visit this website, here’s the whole thing in one glob.

Our first “production piece” (other than the Liam vs East Side Dave stuff), we were turned on to the twisted genius that is Francois Rabelais by our pal Recyclerz on ronfez.net.   Rabelais was a 16th century writer of philosophy and insanity, and took a whole chapter to discourse on the best method for wiping one’s horrid patoot after defecation (or bemerde-ing oneself, as Rabelais would put it).   Anyway, you can read more about Rabelais here.

The reader is Bobby Funk from the East TN State University drama department (he did it in one take which was all we could afford, given he had to drive an hour to get to the studio).

Hope you enjoy this finale to the “Asscrack Challenge”, a bit that hopefully is finally and most permanently dead.

April 4, 2009 Weird Medicine

Filed under: Podcast — Tags: , , , , , , , , — dr steve @ 3:30 pm

This entry includes perianal depilitation, e-cigarettes, frottage, fluorescent urine, and prostatic congestion AKA “Blue Balls”.   Oh, and we exposed the condition known as “Cello Scrotum” as a hoax, and discussed male preference for areola size.   All in all, a busy show.

For those who are interested, we continue our coverage of the Canadian Healthcare system through the trials and tribulations of our friend “Lana from Canada” who is trying to get decisive help for her severe endometriosis.   Oh, and a nice phone call from Pat from Moonachie, too.   If you’d like to help Pat and Big A pay for their medical expenses while we wait for the government to come up with a safety net for the “working poor”, check out the post below.

We’re now on every other Saturday night at 5pm Eastern.   This is our new spot until SiriusXM decides to change it again.   As always we appreciate the tons of support we get for this show.   You all are truly great.

your pal,

Steve

Introducing the fund for Pat From Moonachie and Big A. (So far we’ve raised almost $2500! Thanks to all who have donated!)

Check out Jon Gray at Case of the Mondays (Jon was instrumental in getting a sleep apnea test done on Big A).
