“After 3 or 4 years of listening to this great podcast, the April Fool’s show finally compelled me to write a review, become a donor, and ask a hiker question... maybe even play a prank. This episode was truly superb, second only to the Te Araroa Confessionals. I experienced the full range of emotions on this one: curious at first, then disbelief, then bursts of laughing followed by frustration, resignation, and finally immense joy in the utter simplicity of it all. Terrifically creative and hysterical. Towards the end of the show I felt like I was in Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory, riding the boat through the psychedelic tunnel. This was a potpourri of sounds! A bold work of art! I can almost picture Disco under a smoky desk lamp, half past midnight in the glow of a MacBook Pro... editing... splicing... creating! I can also picture POD standing behind him, in a leisure suit, shaking her head, deeply disappointed by this blatant overdose of acoustics. In honor of Disco’s effort, I would like to offer a top 5 list of sound effects:
5. Incessant knocking on the door
4. Whacked-out dolphin with other unknown creature
3. Unsupervised hammering at the construction site
2. Ruthless fisticuffs with violent back-and-forth exchange at the end
1. A thirsty dog drinking
I have no idea where someone would find such an assorted collection of hi-def masterpieces.
Raising a glass to you guys for all the laughs over the years and looking forward to another 80 shows. Get on the trail y’all!
