The Switched ON Show http://www.theswitchedonshow.com Comedic Chaos and Stuff Mon, 09 Nov 2009 23:05:47 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 en hourly 1 Revisiting the Past http://www.theswitchedonshow.com/2009/11/revisiting-the-past/ http://www.theswitchedonshow.com/2009/11/revisiting-the-past/#comments Mon, 09 Nov 2009 22:59:11 +0000 Version3 http://www.theswitchedonshow.com/?p=30 It’s been a long time since the website was complete, and I’m sure that fact that I’ve decided to print that means that I need to backup everything n-n-n-now. -But it actually looks as though we are approaching complete again: The Switched ON Show Gallery has returned. Beginning with the show artwork of years past, we’ve relaunched the gallery for the sole purpose of trying to create more ways for you to spend entirely too much time on the website.

Now you can look back in time to see just how sexy Rob started out, what stupid art ideas has The Captain running off-mic to make show notes and what Jerry’s random subject matter is represented in full-color glory.  I first started creating the artwork at show 101, as a way to fancy the files up and just generally entertain myself.  A few of these were actually funny, and I committed to during unique artwork for each and every show, as well as over-committing to traveling back in time to do the first 100.  Well listen, I gave it my best shot, but contrary to popular belief, I’m not made of time and success.  My sharp wit, chiseled features and substantial presence can’t be brought to bear on the world’s problems without something slipping through the cracks until such a day comes as I am sick of doing the work I’m paid to do, and I actually decide to spend 7 minutes mending the broken and bringing a glimmer of hope to those lives I touch each and every day.  In short, don’t expect to much from me, I’ll let you down.  But for now, let me distract you from that point by sending you back in time to the sort of half-ass working gallery!  Don’t hold your breath for immediate updates, I’m not a fucking miracle worker over here…  I’m just one man.

Go to the Gallery n-n-n-now.

This summer we edited a few of these to get the ball rolling, and have seen them pulled from YouTube already, with Back to the Future being removed multiple times.  So, we’ve moved them here for your enjoyment.  We bring you Star Wars, Top Gun and Back to the Future.

We always knew when we announced it that we’d want to get together and record something, but what that would be, and how we would relate that to a show that was ‘over’.

Of course we did record, and even when the original show domain was gone, we still put a few odd shows out and released them into the feed. A few core listeners stuck around and heard these, and a few casual people stumbled on then as well. For many, these remain unheard.

Now, we’ve returned. Coming back for a less agressive schedule (one release per month) we are bringing back the same old thing… because it works for us. We’ll hang out, we’ll turn on the mics, we’ll sing some songs or play an odd game when we get bored, and we’ll try to make each other laugh. Will we do this forever? We don’t know. Will there be insane laughter every show? We hope so. Will Rob totally lose it with stupid people? Probably. What we do know, is that we are back, and we will try to have the best time we can… and let you hear it.
