Episode 114 - Pleasant Gehman Interview Part II - Writing and Dancing

Pleasant Gehman returns to The Bobcast with a brand new episode and more stories, more magical mayhem that is the life of the incredible person, the Princess Of Hollywood, Pleasant Gehman! This time around we’re talking about Pleasant’s writing and dancing careers. Pleasant’s been doing both most of her whole life, to great effect. Though she has written mostly non-fiction stories of her life through the years, she’s the first person I’ve heard of that a publisher told “we can’t run this as fiction, it’s too crazy!!!”. That’s the life of Pleasant Gehman in a nutshell. Music of the episode by Screamin’ Sirens and those songs are “I Heard About You” and “Nine Times To Live” off of 1987’s “Voodoo”. Oh! The song “Voodoo” is also soothingly serenading you in the intro and outro background of the episode. Here are some links!

Episode 58 - Turkish Techno / Tracy Soto / Cigarette Machine

Riverside, California is home to a triad of turds, a trio of titilating troubadors - Turkish Techno, Tracy Soto and Cigarette Machine. In this episode, I’m joined by Andy and Roger of ALL of these bands. That’s right, these workaholic music people have their paws in a three band sized pot of honey. Oh, the bands all sound oh-so sweet. Solid pop-punk / melodic punk just like all the bands you love, but better. There are two songs by Turkish Techno and two songs by Tracy Soto - Cigaette Machine has yet to record any tuneage. These songs will get the job done, no joke. Green Day trivia is also in this episode, up to the “Warning” era. Most importantly, we talk about white privilage and interacting with the police cops - and how much different things would be for us were we POC. Protests, Gen Z and fixing shit are also on the menu here. Here are some link to the bands and this episode’s PSAs -
