gspn.tv Weekly Round Up 7/29/10
Hi gspn.tv Fans! This is Carole from the Community here again bringing you the Weekly Round Up. Of special note this week is the Full Time Mom episode “Is Sarah Taboo?”. It seems that since Sarah left, people are wondering if Stephanie and Sarah see each other anymore, if it’s ok to ask about Sarah, and is Stephanie willing to give us updates on how Sarah is doing? You’ll have to tune in to hear Stephanie’s thoughts. Also in that episode, Stephanie relates a story about a couple who phoned Stephanie and Cliff from their hotel bed on their anniversary! Don’t worry – it’s a sweet story. (This is a Plus Member only episode – if you’re not currently a Plus Member, won’t you consider it? All the details are here.)
Right now, here’s what rolled out on the GSPN feed in the last week – go get ‘em while they’re hot:

So, fellow gspn.tv listeners, I think all this mention of Old Spice is ironic because if you live in the U.S. you have probably been using plenty of deodorant the last few weeks – we have been having a relentless heatwave in many parts of the country. I’ll say one thing – when my husband comes in later from doing yardwork in the hot sun, I can only PRAY he will smell like the Old Spice Guy…the man your man could smell like! LOL!

gspn.tv Weekly Round Up 7/15/10
Hi gspn.tv Fans! This is Carole from the Community here back again bringing you the Weekly Round Up. Don’t know if anyone missed me last week, but I was away on vacation without reliable internet access, so I hope you went and looked to see what podcasts were released last week on your own. We took our vacation in the Berkshire mountains area, in Massachusetts. We didn’t do a lot other than geocaching and visiting the Clark Art Museum. We spent a lot of our time just relaxing, doing crossword puzzles, swimming in the pool, and we even did a 1,000 piece puzzle. So, speaking of vacation, of special note this week is the Family From the Heart podcast episode “Vacation From the Heart”. Take a listen to what the Ravescrafts did for THEIR vacation in the Smokey Mountains of Tennessee! Also, they mention a very interesting bedding product for married couples – you’ll have to listen to find out what it is. Hopefully it’s not something you need, LOL! :-)

So, those lucky ducks Cliff and Stephanie got to see the third movie in the Twilight Saga “Eclipse” a SECOND time on their vacation (you can hear their review here). I still haven’t seen New Moon (I know, I know – I’m waiting to borrow it from my library still). I can’t wait to hear what Cliff and Stephanie think about the last book “Breaking Dawn”. I kind of felt like Stephanie Meyer “jumped the shark” on that one. They said to be on the look out for new episodes released soon with Cliff and Stephanie’s thoughts on it.
Hope you’re having a great summer so far and enjoying some good “beach reads”! :-)

I’m happy to report mine updated just fine and I love the new features like folders that the update brought. Now I can hit the app store and look for “Sheep Stacker” and put it in my “Games” folder. :-D

Hi gspn.tv Fans! This is Carole from the Community here again bringing you the Weekly Round Up. The podcast I’m highlighting this week is the About the Church episode called, “Big Butter Jesus Struck By Lightning” – have you heard about this? I had seen a headline on the internet also referring to it as the “Touchdown Jesus” but I never clicked it to see what it was about, so when I saw that Cliff and DG were talking about it, my curiosity got the better of me. Even if you know the story of the “Big Butter/Touchdown Jesus”, did you know there was a song about it? And even if you’ve heard the song, have you ever heard Cliff and DG sing it? You gotta have a listen, it’s hilarious!!

They took a call from John who asked about getting a keyboard shortcut for turning off the wifi on a Mac. Cliff and Chris didn’t have a solution for this.

So, didja like my Round Up this week? Ok, that’s a little joke in reference to the Social Media Serenity podcast episode 044 “I Like Your Comment” where Cliff and Erik were talking about how they thought the Facebook “liking” was getting a little out of control. In fact, I went to the Podcast Answer Man website mentioned (www.podcastanswerman.com) and I looked for a button to “Like” that Erik “Liked” the website, but I guess Facebook hasn’t taken Cliff’s tongue-in-cheek suggestion of being able to “Like” other people’s “Likes” ….yet! :-)
Do YOU think all the Facebook “Like” buttons apperaing all over the internet are over the top too? Or do you “Like” all the “Likes”? LOL…
See you next week! Carole
