KNEEL not dead...

Just had my attention brought to this site again... no it is not dead. I'm just busy as shit, and we haven't had time to record. Even if we did record, I haven't had time to edit.

Christmas is coming, and soon with it "A Very Christmas Kneel Before Pod!"

Stay tuned random viewer.

I hate new things...

SO I decide to try out bloggers new look/design thing, and holy shit what a clusterfuck. I don't know if I missed the simplicity of it, but in order to just change one thing I had to click 4 or 5 links. Screw that.

So I tried to change it back to the way I JUST had it, and now all the fonts and stuff are fucked up.

When I get this all back to the way I like it, I'm never changing again!

*shakes fist at blogger* IF I KNEW HOW TO MAKE MY OWN WEB PAGE!!!!!

KNEEL BEFORE POD! - Episode 6 "Adventures in Balding"



Little known fact: Kevin and I are both going a *little* bald.

While shocking at first, time has healed insecurities, and we now take some time to discuss our own adventures in balding.

Discovery! Denial! MICRON LABORATORIES!

Yes, in this edition of Kneel, I will discuss one of the most idiotic embarrassing things I have ever done. I went to a hairloss clinic. An EVIL hairloss clinic.

Enough time has passed that I can look back on that moment of time and laugh. Shake my head and laugh. Get super angry, cry over lost cash.... laugh... sort of.

Anyways, enjoy. It was therapeutic finally getting it out.

And for anyone doing a google search on "MICRON LABS" or "MICRON LABORATORIES", give a watch... it will be very informative...

Balding is not a choice... but bald is. - Mystery

KNEEL BEFORE POD! - Episode 5 "Back to the Filler"



Arlyn sitting in for Master John Moss as we discuss such hot topics as brushing your teeth, reading, and watching movies outside.

Oh and there's something about me being too fat to get down a waterslide.

Next week John returns, and I'm sure we will discuss the new events on "Ellery's Creek".

Vancouver State of Mind... SIDE BY SIDE!

If you watched the last Kneel Before Pod, you would have seen/heard us talking of how parody became a mimic, and some people couldn't see that we weren't aiming for a multi-million dollar recording contract.

It also occured to me after we made the "Vancouver State of Mind" video, that some people may not have actually SEEN "Empire State of Mind" and not get WHAT we were parodying.

So the other day I showed the "Empire..." video side by side with "Vancouver..." one to Arlyn and Mika, and they thought it was hilarious.

Kevin then put it together properly, so now here they are...



Oh, and if someone DOES want to give me a multi-million contract, I could use a bit of cash right now... so... feel free.

Kneel Before Pod Special! - "Haters gonna hate!"



This Kneel Before Pod is a little different than the other vlogs we've posted or recorded for a number of reasons. The main reason being we have a guest host, Arlyn Bantog, and the other reason being it's a  KBP that is more a "Directors commentary" on a project of ours, rather than us just sitting around talking about Smurfs.

I guess that "number of reasons" is only 2... 2 reasons.

So, we debuted "Vancouver State of Mind" on Youtube and were overcome with joy to see that most of the internet response was attacking me and my rapper skillz. Apparently we were a tad off in coming across as parody, and came across more as people hoping to make it in the music biz. Ah well...

So right here, in this special "Kneel Before Pod!!!" we discuss what went into the making of this brilliantly edited, but deeply flawed video.

If you're not into watching/listening to 30 minutes of us talking about where we went right/wrong in the making of this epic video of supposed douchery - don't worry about it. We will have another KBP following shortly behind where we discuss brushing our teeth.

Also, here are some of the other media mentioned in the KBP, starting with the video this whole session was based on...

Enjoy.

New KNEEL a comin!

I have TWO I am editing right now... one of them is a special episode... and of course with our special guest host....


Unfortunately, I've been distracted with life, and it's not coming together as fast as I'd like.

What's going on here?!

Well I'll tell you!

Master John Moss hasn't been around - he's in Kamloops - and I've been busy, so recording hasn't happened.

However, tonight we're going to get all recorded up as we have a guest host for the evening, Charlene Havilecihchench *or something... I don't know, I'll look it up later and fix that spelling.

Charlene is the driving force behind the one video I've participated in that I fully regret...

After a heated phone conversation about said video, I told her she must come into House of Ten Studios and discuss it on KNEEL BEFORE POD. She agreed and so-

*Record Scratch*

Okay turns out our guest host will be the lovely, opinionated, peanuty brown, Arlyn Bantog!



I have a feeling this will be an awesome session...

Fail Before Pod!!!

I messed up bad. I destroyed our last recorded Vlog.

Ah well, the show will go on as we record this Sunday.



I'd fire myself if I was an employee of myself and this held any kind of importance at all.

"Micheal Bay Raped My Childhood"

While I toil away at the new "Kneel Before Pod" (a depressing affair), I figured I'd put up John Moss's final version of his school project...



As first viewed and discussed HERE:

http://kneelbeforepod.blogspot.com/2011/07/episode-3-never-tell-me-odds.html

It's John's Visual Storytelling presentation for VFS Writing for Film and Television assignment.

Enjoy?

Next Kneel coming....

Got a little distracted this week getting old...


We had big plans to get drunk at my (Ellery's) B-day BBQ, and then slur our way through nerdy commentary, but alas we basically just got drunk and sleepy.

But we record on the weekend!

In the meantime...

Ellery's B-day Round up! *CLICK*

Still haven't seen Smurf's in the theater yet... Dammit.

Episode 3 "Never tell me the odds!!!"



FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!

In Episode 3 of our continuing saga, we discuss how much Rita Rudner sucks, how much East Canada can suck, take a look at John's School project that dissects how much Transformers now suck, and then John and Kev fight over how much of Kev's time John should be allowed to suck up.

There's also a sneak peek at "Vancouver State of Mind" - the horribly embarrassing music video that will soon be going online... God help me.

Oh, and we also argue over John's insistence that the Yukon can never win the lottery.

Episode 3! Banned in GERMANY! - We have Ramstein (sp?) playing at one point... I guess that's a Youtube no no in Germany

Episode 2 "Where the Smurf is Hefty?!"



Yup, here's another Videoblog for ya!

Still getting the hang of this whole thing - and still some sound issues - but hey! I'm working on it!

Spent 3 days just trying to get this episode up onto Youtube. But I assure you, it's TOTALLY worth it. I swear. This is awesome as hell! We talk about Smurfs, and Predators, and Bill Watterson.

Yep. Hand to God. You could not spend your 24 minutes watching anything more interesting then us awkwardly talking about movies we like/don't like.

But hey, a year from now, when this is the polished diamond that I foresee it becoming, you'll have been there from the begining - watching it grow floor by floor like the "Tiny Tower" I'm building on my iPhone! (Have you played that game? DON'T! It's stupid and a waste of time.)

Enough babbling, just watch it already.

Gotta go restock the sushi place on floor 16. Tiny Tower is so fucking needy.

Episode 1 "Oh hey, another riot!"



In the first ever POSTED "Kneel Before POD!" (we've been recording them for a while now) we discuss the Vancouver Riots!

Yeah, I'm not one to make excuses for my work (LIES!...I totally am) but forcing oursleves to stay on a specific topic didn't play well. From this post forward we'll be going back to just pointless conversation from now on. Also, since editing this, I've come across some new ideas for how to go about putting these together.

Should be cool.

Enjoy friends!
