This is not so much the holiday podcast as the pre-holiday podcast, because for all we are away now, I recorded this on Thursday night before going away, as we prepare ourselves for the unspeakable burden of doing absolutely fuck all for two weeks. I am taking a pile of books and a pile of new music and we are going to do pretty much nothing at all. My parents used to do really adventurous travelling when we were young, but honestly I don't have the energy. I am so incredibly fucking exhausted from constant Toadery that actually, despite having a holiday inferiority complex, pretty much all I can cope with at the moment is a couple of weeks of fuck all. Even
last year when we went to Portland for a couple of weeks, we took all
the technology and recorded interviews and all sorts at Pickathon. It
was relaxing and nice, but I still got a hell of a lot of work done.
This time I will take along some tunes which I have been meaning to
catch up with, perhaps record a podcast or two, and basically spend the
rest of the time lying in the sun by the pool. My folks might not be
all that impressed, but the recharging of the batteries is the sole
purpose of this trip and I think we might manage just that. Toadcast #73 - The Holiday Podcast 02. Midnight Oil - Bushfire (10.06) 03. Headless Heroes - Hey, Who Really Cares?
