Nurture and Support Nurture and Support

Slow and steady wins the race.  Finally another podcast…..

Mel’s recommendation: You Need a Budget web app

Mel recommends a handy zero-bed based budgeting tool this show.  She has actually been using it for over 6 months and it has proved very useful.  Annual and monthly subscriptions are available.  You also get a free trial period that runs just over a month so you can take it for a spin prior to buying.

  

 

Kelly’s recommendation: Oranges & Lemons by XTC

Kelly revisits a favorite album by a too often overlooked band, XTC.  This is a double album featuring 15 songs released in 1989.  Songs range from pop (Mayor of Simpleton) to the more adventurous (Across This Antheap).  Highly listenable!!  

If interested, check out the lengthy Wikipedia article on Oranges & Lemons that I mentioned.

 

 

 

And as promised, the awesome Mayor of Simpleton video…

Nurture & Support returns 🙂

Mel and I hope to get back to at least a monthly update for the podcast.   Here is one in a row…

Kelly’s recommendation: Oculus Quest 2

After many failed attempts, I finally have a VR device I love.  No computer required, easy set up, and amazing VR experiences.  Definitely worth a look (and once you get it, get the Vader Immortal series!) 

 

 

Mel’s recommendation: Alien III audiobook

Mel LOVES the Alien series.  Well, except for Alien 3 movie, which she pretty much hates… UNTIL she came across an alternative script by William Gibson available on Audible.  It runs just over 2 hours and features some of the original cast including Michael Biehn and Lance Henriksen!

WARNING: Several Star Wars spoilers (mostly the Clone Wars series)

In this “Squat on the issues” episode Mike and I discuss Bo-Katan’s armor, The Mandalorian, and men in dresses.

Sorry this one is as timely as we originally planned, but Mike had a few “moments” in this episode that I had to creatively edit. Took awhile 🙂

Kelly’s recommendation: The Holiday Movies That Made Us

Available on Netflix, with episodes on Elf and The Nightmare Before Christmas, this installation of the “…that made us” series is full of interesting backstories, challenges and information on these movies.  If you are a fan of them already, you love them more. 

If you weren’t a fan, you just might warm up to them some.

This week in sort of a Nurture and Support and Squat Cobbler combo, we visit with Gerald Webb about the amazing podcast “The Shadow Diaries” brought to you by the good folks at Studio71 and Snarled Entertainment.

This podcast stars Madelaine Petsch & Kara Hayward and around episode 4, our favorite cantankerous, ugly shirt wearing friend Gerald Webb shows up.

In a few weeks the season finale will be published and we plan to do a “tweet sync” where we all start the podcast off of the Snarled YouTube channel playlist at the same time and tweet along with it with Gerald and maybe some surprise guests joining in.

Jump on this, it would be awesome to have a big group for the live tweet.  In addition to YouTube, you can find The Shadow Diaries on nearly all podcast platforms.

Special treat around the 18:30 mark 🙂

Kelly’s recommendation –  The Boys

This Amazon show is based on the graphic novels of the same name by Garth Ennis. While there are many tweaks, it does effectively bring forward the dark, funny, dark, strange world of the graphic novel.  If you have problems with profanity.. not your show. If you have problems with VERY dark situations… not your show.  The cast and writing are spectacular!

 

 

 

Mel’s recommendation –  Art With Flo

Just like Kelly, Mel remains on the lookout for a graphic art Sherpa.  Flo seems to be the ticket for her.  Flo provides easy to follow, concise guidance on using Procreate.  Flo doesn’t assume you have the highest end equipment, in fact Mel was able to keep up with her vintage iPad Air and generation 1 Apple Pencil.   As promised, here is Mel’s first project.   Nice job!!
