Episode Eleven – Mambo Italiano
Posted on: August 22, 2009
(WOW. Hella derail on the audio there! I’ll go back later tonight and re-upload)
This was shot a few weeks ago on a night we decided to make pizza from scratch. Not sure what else to tell you on this one. It was a lot of fun, and Paco is full of interesting stories, as you will see towards the end.
And of course we announce the raffle winner at the end (we do sorta want you to watch at least part of the episode!). Funny how it happened, actually…
Next week is the last of our backlogged episodes, then we may have a couple of weeks of clip shows because Angela is due to give birth on August 31st! Say hey in the comments, y’all, she has been pretty convinced it’ll never end.
Episode Ten – Bandslam!
Posted on: August 15, 2009
WE. SUCK.
There’s no real reason we couldn’t get a video done sooner. We have two episodes filmed, it’s just that Lissa is lazy.
But that is all about to change. Anyway, enough talk, here –
So the upshot is, if you leave a comment, you’re entered into a raffle to win a $30 gift cert to the movie chain of your choice to go see Bandslam, which was written by our very favorite Josh A. Cagan, without whose guidance we would be out every night delinquently punching donkeys.
It is $30 in order to give you a head start on snacks. I know I don’t enjoy a movie without a bag of Twizzlers, how about you?
In fact, just to make it fun, when you leave your comment, why don’t you tell us what your favorite moviegoing snack is?
Oh, and in the episode we discuss a prize winning video that Lissa made, and here that is –
Okay! We look forward to your comments! See you next week!
P.S. If you are the ticket winner you have to take a picture of yourself with your ticket stub so we can post it!
This week’s song is “Amphetamine” from the Bandslam soundtrack.
Episode Nine – The New Guy
Posted on: July 3, 2009
So…yeah. This one took a while. And it marks a format shift for us; after this, we’re going back to our original concept for OMGFriday, which is utterly candid, limitedly edited video.
It was always supposed to be like a mini-reality show, and we got away from that. It’ll be easier on all of us from now on, and that’s only brilliant.
Oh, and we brought in some dude that lives next door to me to add a little spice.
(we’ve known him for years. the living next door to me thing is actually a funny coincidence)
So, bear with us this week, as this is a long long episode – there was SO MUCH FOOTAGE to go through, I was sick of it by the end, and I don’t even know if this video works properly – but after this it’ll be awesome. Really.
(I am so good at selling this, right? HA)
Episode Eight – Hoops and Kilts

Oh, what a short blog this week! But worth it, we think; there is some footage of us making a hoop, but the bulk of this week is a pair of songs from our friend Marc Gunn’s set at the Texas Scottish Festival last Saturday.
Yeah, he’s cute, an excellent musician, and wearing a kilt. You’re welcome.
Might get back to some semblance of normal next week. But we were happy with the short episode, as it meant we got to spend time with friends we don’t see very often. It was a lot of fun.
Oh, the soundtrack? 15 Step by Radiohead, which seems to be the only really good Radiohead song in existence. We bought the MP3 from Amazon.com.

We’re back!
This week we’re still into hooping, but now we’re making our own hoops.
Plus hey! An appearance by Christine Rose, co-author of the award winning novel “Rowan of the Wood!”
And all the cuteness you need.
Not sure what next week’s episode will be. Don’t think we taped anything…oops.
whoopsie!

Oh yeah.
Sorry. Angela had a bad week with her pregnancy, then I had a bad week with a little problem of my own. We meant to do a clip show, but…yeah.
We do have this week’s show pretty much ready to go. We further explore hooping in this one. It was fun! Can’t wait for you to see it.
OMGFriday – Hoop It Up

Never let it be said the girls are afraid to make idiots out of themselves for the audience: this week, Lissa demonstrates her new passion for hooping and makes a complete tit of herself; together, the girls report on book recommendations; Aaron returns with a Clever Moment involving the manufacture of one’s own alcoholic beverage.
Next week’s a clip show, we’re afraid; Angela had a bad pregnancy week, so we didn’t get anything filmed. No worries, next week we’ll film ourselves at the last weekend of Scarborough Faire, so Episode Eight is a return to the “what ARE they doing?” form to which you have become accustomed.

WOW this is late, sorry. It was late anyway, but then Vimeo had a crash. But here – welcome to Angela and Aaron’s 5th Anniversary party!
Not much to say. The transition to Vimeo has been good, we really love the ability to load episodes as one video! We won’t convert the original episodes but we will put them up on Vimeo as well.
We will also be disabling comments on the video sites themselves. If you want to leave a comment you will have to leave it here. We received a rash of nasty anonymous comments on YouTube that were just annoying and we don’t want to deal with that sort of idiotic thing. Especially since we’re fairly sure about their origin and seriously, that was just pathetic.
At any rate, enjoy the party, and we’ll see you next week! Lissa gets shoved back in front of the camera to discuss her new love, and the girls talk about books that they really like.

Belly Dancing! Remote Hunting! A Twitter Time to beat all Twitter Times both in length and content!
This past week has been nuts; Lissa has suddenly acquired a new roommate, and Angela spent the week preparing for her and Aaron’s 5th Anniversary party. It was hectic, but we hope you find it worth it!
All in one video even. Woo.
Next week’s video may be very short, as Lissa has lost her battery charger and is waiting for the new one to come in. So far next week is only the anniversary party – we’ll see!
OMGFriday – Box Dinners
Posted on: April 27, 2009
Obviously we’re still finding our feet with this stuff. So sorry for being super late.
Aaron had, sadly, no clever moment this week, and Twitter Time got a bit wordy. But here is the episode! This week we showed you some of our dinner making moments.
(at the time of posting this the videos are still processing on YouTube but DAMN, I wanted to go to bed, so please be patient, and thanks!)
(and then fucking YouTube muted the second video because of the song we used as our intro and outro this week – “Grace Kelly” by Mika is one of our favorites! so we’re switching things to a new video provider, hopefully it’ll be sorted soon)
Next week’s going to be terribly awesome though – belly dancing, hooping, and the best Twitter Time yet!
Oh, My God. Friday.
