Continuucast 2: Electric Boogaloo (AKA: “That Could Have Gone Better”)

 

Dan Glickman’s second foray into podcasting turns into a disaster during the second segment as he tries to tie together pitch clocks, Rob Manfred’s “One Baseball” idea and the Anti-Trust Exemption into something coherent but finds that what sounds good in his head is kind of a bit of rambling when he speaks it. He totally is going to have to write down stuff more in the future, and also expand upon what he was TRYING to say in a blog post.

Also, he said he’d discuss the 2016 All-Star Game being rewarded to San Diego, and ended up not. What a doofus.

Oh well, better luck next time, Dan!

The download link can be found here. The Continuucast will arrive on iTunes and similar services in the near future.

Music/Sounds Featured:

“The National Game” by John Phillip Sousa

“The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” by Paul Dukas, as performed by the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra in 1941

“The Entertainer” by Scott Joplin

“Entry of the Gladiators” (AKA The Circus Clown music) by Julius Fucik

All sound and music used is either public domain or falls under fair use.

This Weekend….

Aside

This weekend on the Baseball Continuum:

  • Another podcast (either late tonight or early tomorrow)
  • A “Famous For Something Else”
  • …and the NFL picks.

 

So about the podcast….

So, as you saw yesterday, there’s a new thing added to the Baseball Continuum, the Continuucast! I’ll be doing one every now and then from now on, probably. They will range greatly in time, from as short as five or ten minutes to some installments that may be longer than an hour. So what sort of stuff can you expect to see in the Continuucasts?

Well….

-Discussions of the latest baseball news or thoughts on teams, players, etc. The first Continuucast, for example, has me discuss the Cubs and the Hall of Fame, as well as some brief thoughts on the Ben Zobrist trade.

-Features like Bizarre Baseball Culture. Some of them are semi-previews of future “official” Biz-BCs, others are side-issues, and maybe some of them will be “official” Bizarre Baseball Cultures.

-“Around the Continuum”, where I pay tribute to the vast scale of the Baseball Continuum by taking a look at what’s going on around the world outside of the usual MLB realm of influence.

-In the future… interviews! Other members of the baseball internet, and perhaps other interesting baseball people!

-Mail-Bag! Do you have any questions for me? Send them to djgwriter@yahoo.com!

-And, no doubt, more things that will develop as the Continuucast goes on.

So, listen to the installment from yesterday, and of course, keep an eye open, as I will be adding it to iTunes and other services sometime in the near future (I want to do a few to get on my feet first).

 

Coming Soon to the Baseball Continuum: The Continuucast!

Aside

Coming soon (tomorrow or maybe the day after), you’ll see the very first BASEBALL CONTINUUM CONTINUUCAST.

Keep an eye open!
