I hope not, but I've always wanted to host a radio show.
Jazz hour with twinjet, anyone?
I don't have enough free time but I thought improv radio theater with a loose outline would be a blast. Pick a pub setting so characters could go in and out each episode.
How about a podcast with the endless material hashed around on TB?
Reasearched it yesterday. There are bass centric podcasts but nearly all fizzled out some time ago.
Serious?
The other podcasts were all just bass related. None were TB. I have done some podcasts before for a short run. I like to put in bumper music, edit down etc. It's fun. Gives things just a tiny bit of polish but not a lot of work.
I have JoinMe which gives you a phone # for a con call or record skype.
What kind of topics? Worst bass player on TB (i nominate me). Myth of Modes. When to quit. There is a huge list all from recent posts.
Invite others on based on topic? Etc. etc.
Great ideas! (To avoid derailing, I'm asking a new Q)
What sort of planes does John Travolta own?
You may have some competition for the Title.
I thought @Cole Louis Allar was the self-proclaimed "Worst Bass Player on TB"?
Yeah, just taking a little heat off of Cole. There are many of us that aren't complete beginners but not at 'that level' yet.
Do you prefer paper or plastic? Is either good for the planet?
True, I'm not posting videos of myself playing here and asking for comments. Got to give him credit there.
No, neither is good, but normally I don't get asked at the store, they just give plastic.
I hear you have to purchase plastic bags at grocery stores in CA, is this true?
Lol maybe maybe not! don't care though I play music because it's fun. Not to be better than someone LOL
I respect that you post videos of yourself and request comments and improvement suggestions, that takes some guts.
Has anyone suggested a TB duel for bass supremacy?
Can you play punk sitting down?
Am I the worst bassist on talk bass?
Lol jk jk
But seriously though
Which do you like better? Coke or Pepsi?
Do you prefer mat freeman or Mike Dirnt?
Pick or fingers?
Can you give me tips on mastering tremelo picking?

not everywhere. those plastic bags are perfect for smelly diapers. the law says you have to put soiled diapers in bags before putting them in the bin. i like the bags from the store.
what's your favorite big local grocery store?
tremolo picking... just takes practice. but, you could try a slightly angled approach with the pick on the string. less surface area hitting the string = less resistance = ability to pick faster. start slow and build up speed.
favorite pick?
I don't generally play punk, but I have played metal sitting down.
I may be the worst bassist on TB, it is yet to be determined.
I prefer Jolt over Coke and Pepsi.
Can't say I prefer either Mat Freeman nor Mike Dirnt.
Usually fingers, but working on my picking technique for metal.
No.
Is mothman truly the best bass for metal?
It was Meijer's in Michigan, but then when I moved to Tacoma, they had Fred Meyer. I would have to say that Meijer's had a better selection, similar to a Super Target, but Fred Meyer carried a better beer selection.
Do you have a preference?
Diaper Genie is the best. Pop it into the top. Throw the bag away when it's full. They look like big diaper sausages when you empty it. Genuis.
Anyone ever use cloth diapers on their babies? (Yuck).
