The random rambles of J #20 - J and the 'body in the road

I complain that life is boring. And then the universe chucks somebody in front of my car and has me run them over.

Yes. Really.

My tale of how I ran somebody over thankfully didn't end grimly. But it did happen. It's probably something I should stop mentioning to people. It's doing my credibility no favours, and now nobody trusts me enough to drive them anywhere.

Podcast 20 comes chock-a-block full of random goodness. Which unlike a Christmas dinner, won't leave your trousers feeling two sizes too tight.
  • The run down of a run over (My account of 'the incident')
  • Games in my sights for 2010
  • My shot at getting to see one of Japan's biggest J-Pop superstars
  • Japan story: Porn (J'yapanese style)
  • Random J radio plays... Hikaru Utada
  • A brand new Random J single! "3" - A song about running somebody over
Another attempt at a short 'n sweet podcast: failed. I can talk for days. I should be a guidance counsellor.

Get stuck in!

🎵 This podcast features the song "3". A double-time pop banger about road safety and an account of me running somebody over in my car.

  1. Very nice podcast J! You should feel accomplished, because your last bit did actually get me thinking! There's a lot of stuff I want to happen in 2010. Are you ready for the list?

    *find a job, one that I enjoy, while at the same time pays decently
    *get a place of my own
    *get a new car - preferably a jeep wrangler
    *travel to Europe - never been out of the US, sadly
    *be with this girl (you remember the post)
    *give our new dog, Harley, a better life than he's had
    *reconnect with old friends

    Probably more stuff, but that's a lot for one year! But I think I need that. Setting goals is always a good thing.

  2. So...I got curious, and decided to listen to a podcast, I never listen to one before so thought why not start with Utada in it? I have to admit that your voice is different to how I imagined. With your ranting and swearing in some blogs I thought you'd sound like the Nostalgia Critic (http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thatguywiththeglasses/nostalgia-critic/4762-adventures-of-sonic-the-hedgehog) XD

    Now, my thoughts on your podcast

    - I love your parody of '3'! It reminded me of Wierd Al's stuff, you should post it on youtube!

    - I'm sorry to hear about your Utada ticket mess up! People have complained when they got the same e-mail as you, and they've got free (promotional) tickets as a token of sorry-ness. So if I were you, I would give ticketweb a call, but maybe include less swearing! (e.g. http://www.utadanet.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=4198&viewmode=flat&order=ASC&start=150 - read top post)

    - You ate KFC in Japan? XD You can do that at home though! Sounds like a good day out though, despite the disturbing stuff you found in the porn shop.

    - Nice choice of Utada song, Ultra Blue is my favourite Japanese album from her.
