There was a time where Whit was omnipresent in the blogging world. Wherever you went he was there first, spraying witty erudite comments around the blogosphere like an incontinent fire hydrant.
Those were the days before he went pro of course. Now he blogs for Fame Crawler, Dadcentric, the Disney Blog, Pernetricity, and Styledash. These days you have to pay for his comments. I’ve taken out the super saver casual reader plan. For just $9.95 a month he guarantees that he will read at least five of my posts and comment on a minimum of three.
And let me tell you this, it’s worth it. Because not only is Whit a marvelous writer, he’s a damn fine chap too. And on top of it all he has pretty good taste in music.
And here he is.
——————————–
When Dan first asked me to guest post over here I knew it was time for an intervention. Obviously the man had been drinking. Still, I’d never been to England before and who knows when the chance would come again, so I packed up my stuff, grabbed a fistful of U.S. dollars and swam to London. Did you know there are other cities besides London in England? They don’t tell you that on BBC America. 3 hours later I’m drinking Carlsbad beer from a can in Dan’s garden. He wouldn’t let me inside.
Anyway, I didn’t know what would be a worthy post. I didn’t want to half-ass it like I did over at Rattling the Kettle. That was uncalled for. Then it hit me- a podcast! Dan always does podcasts on his blog, what if I did one, but actually made it worth listening to? It was worth a shot.
So I made the podcast you’ll find below. I was pretty excited until Dan sweet-talked me into doing a podcast with him last week. Suddenly I have two podcasts under my belt and they’re both over here at Dan’s (insert additional under the belt jokes here).
Don’t let my rambling ways and maniacal laughter from the previous episode frighten you. I don’t talk much on this one. The real star is the music, not to mention a special appearance by the Honea Express Singers. All in all, I think it’s a worthy endeavor. I hope you do too.
Tip your waitress.
Whit

Whit, I downloaded the cast–I’ll have to listen later when I’ve more time. But you had me from the get go with Linus and Lucy. My alarm clock is set to wake me to that song every single day as it has for the last 10 years. I never get tired of it.

Great songs (chives). I think it’s time to shop your son around to a few labels (goldmine, there). Didn’t get all the song titles though and I’d really like to add them to my playlist. Thanks, Whit.
