The IntoYourHead show war episode!
It’s official ladies, gentlemen and everyone else: the fine folks at the IntoYourHead show are officially at war. In response to this situation, I have recorded this highly sophisticated response. Please listen to in a well ventilated area, for the fumes of professionalism may overwhelm you.
The Singapore Grand Prix and bills episode!
Reviewing the first Formula 1 Grand Prix night race in Singapore, Massa’s pits fuel pipe adventure, the lights and skyline, Alonoso was one lucky guy, Ferrari’s woes; version 1.1.1 of the addictive Nations application on Facebook; Twinings Chai tea; ridiculous Telstra phone bill nonsense; and avoiding suggestively named Naked DSL!

The telco malice episode!
Was SUPPOSED to be discussing our Flinders Ranges trip and my new iPhone, but ended up discussing the cola wars, my dad’s much needed holiday with us in Adelaide, having no energy sucks, mistakingly assuming malice instead of stupidity, the sad decline of Vodafone service in Australia, multivitamins and coffee preparation, the Aussie outback is REALLY flat, signing up with Optus, mobile phone prepaid plans are a ripoff, really humbling super old rock, good to be back home, sculling boiling water, phone calls with Elke, and some "realistic" philosophy!
Flinders Ranges trip and iPhone adventures will be released in the coming week. Heaven forbid I actually record what I’m supposed to one day :-).

The quarter millennium episode!
Looking back 10x at episode Rubenerd Show 25, flu is fun, fun with IP addresses and DNS servers, Happy 60th birthday to Bem Adolph in Sydney, meeting my old man back in Adelaide, forgetful MadPlayers, music lobby groups and companies making us feel guilty, John Grisham, Disney copyright evils, Whole Wheat Radio artists, Nations application on Facebook (with link to Rubenerdia), Schweppes Lemonade, huge controversy surrounding Ginger, the cute Rundle Mall mascot and silly roller coaster analogies!

The Saturday laughter episode!
From Adelaide: On Saturday nights some young people go binge drinking at nightclubs. Ruben does the hardcore thing by releasing a ridiculous, disjointed, repetitive, mildly irritating podcast episode with little cohesion or rational thought. And some people say he’s a loser, can you believe it? Including vintage audio from Not Only but Also!
This also serves as a crossover for Rubenerd Unplugged, the cheap knockoff of the Rampler which is coming soon. This will be the only episode where Unplugged material is played here, unless someone uses an effective form of persuasion against Ruben such a gun, or grilled cheese sandwich.
Life, technology, coffee and other important stuff with your host Ruben Schade in Singapore and Adelaide, Australia ^_^
