Special Episode 5 – Balticon 47 Live!

by The Shrinking Man July 15, 2013 Philosophy

This week I’m happy to bring you the Special Episode recorded live at Balticon 47. This year saw the return of three of last year’s guests, Starla Huchton, Lauren “Scribe” Harris, and Veronica Giguere. Justin Macumber was also scheduled to attend, but he was called home for an emergency, and we didn’t find out that he’d left the con until after the […]

Special Episode 4 – The Shrinking Man Project Live!

by The Shrinking Man February 25, 2013 Philosophy

Time for another special episode recorded at Balticon 46. Like last episode, this one got held up for a while  because of the Balticon Wrap-up feed I’m doing over at Swimming Cat Studios. This is another simultaneous release, so if you’re subscribed to both feeds, you’ll get the same episode twice. Sorry about that. This is […]

Episode 42 – Gotta Get Out There!

by The Shrinking Man March 15, 2012 Check In

This week’s episode is a bit longer, and somewhat more rambly. I’ve taken a page from Nathan Lowell’s podcast Talking on my Morning Walk. This week’s episode was recorded while I was out walking my two-mile route near my house. It’s a little noisy, and there is a certain amount of heavy breathing, but what’s […]

by The Shrinking Man February 6, 2012 Check In

It is the beginning of a new year, and this is the time that most people start looking at setting their goals for the new year. So, I thought it was time that I take a look at the goals that people set and the different ways that they prevent themselves from meeting them. Time […]

Episode 31 – Moisturize Me! – Part 1

by The Shrinking Man July 22, 2011 Check In

Trying to keep things on time and on schedule this week. Sure to be a challenge. Didn’t do as well as I’d hoped when I recorded this. But I am back this week, and Philosophy is back, too! I bet you can just guess the subject. This week our promo is for Hugh O’Donnell’s The Way […]

Episode 20 – Breaking the Tyranny of the Scale

by The Shrinking Man May 6, 2011 Check In

Sometimes a thought and a plan will just converge. This week’s Philosophy section was something that I had planned way back when before I started the podcast, but Julie brought up something last week that fit in perfectly with this topic and with what I’ve been going through. It put a new spin on things […]
