Who's got time to Blog?

Well, obviously not me...Working 60 hours a week, trying to put together a Reggae podcast every 2 or 3 weeks, and various other distractions online and in real life. Besides, if you've seen me type, it can be slow torture. Just to make things easier, I'm going to post a few links from my favorite political podcast 'The Best of The Left' and my Rastaman Vibrations reggae podcast.

Last week, Jay Tomlinson at Best of the Left, put together a show about the Death Penalty after the Troy Davis execution. Between that and the Republican Debates, it really made me wonder about the people who cheer for Executions, many of whom also would support the killing of abortion doctors, or prevent a woman from getting a life saving abortion in a hospital.

But, hey Reggae Rob...Where's the Reggae???
Well, Podomatic wanted $50/month to upload podcast #15...WTF?? Ok, I can get unlimited bandwidth for a fraction of the cost at PodBean instead, but this month is kind of crazy as it all gets switched over. By the end of the month will have paid subscription all set at PodBean, and we'll see what's left on a free service from Podomatic, mostly just to keep contact with other podcasters there. So head to http://rastamanvibrations.podbean.com/  for the latest Rastaman Vibrations podcasts. Also check Google Feedburner for the Reggae links.

  1. It's definitely a burden to try and find time. I know much of my blogging, self promotion, and Examiner articles tend to be very sporadic because of my work schedule. I don't work nearly sixty hours a week, but even at forty or fifty the time just doesn't seem to be there.
