Great Southern Stand: Recent Episodes

None

A look at hilarious humanity at it's weirdest, through the eyes of a madman!

I changed my mind.

I'm still going to do the fitness thing, but I made a new page for it.

http://fatsmokermma.wordpress.com/

Hope to see you there.

Hiya folks, Steve here. Merry Happy and all that, Jolly new year etc. Hope no-one's dead and none of your family pets were raped. Now that the niceties are done with, onto business.

For those of you who don't know, which I am assuming is pretty much everyone, I have started MMA training. I am 37, I've been smoking, drinking and generally sitting about quite a lot for about 20 years now, and I decided it was time to do something about it.

I quit smoking a few weeks ago with the help of some wonderful little pills, and PSC (punkspacecadet, my lady love) and I are both training at a working MMA gym in the city.

The MMA community in Adelaide is quite small. In Australia in general we are a boxing and kick boxing country as far as martial arts are concerned, but I have hopes that I will be able to eventually fight in a ring or cage, as does PSC.

So this webpage is pretty much going to be a record of our training, and of our journey from couch potatoes devouring junk food and cigarettes all day to however high we manage to climb on the MMA ladder.

So, if you are interested in this sort of thing, stick around. If you came here for the podcast, I don't do that anymore. To be honest, I'm pretty embarassed about the ill thought out and poorly educated ideas I put out in those podcasts, but I am still an honest guy. I made em, so there they stay.
No matter how much I might want to delete them.

Look forward to videos and whatnot about our training, and maybe some discussions on technique as well.

This is irregular, I am not going to be posting weekly, monthly, or even annually. I will post when I have content, and not before. Feel free to write in anytime on Bleep@internode.on.net with any comments or questions.

I had the honour to be on The Role Playing Hour again, this time as a Russian wrestler and an over excited yankee MMA commentator. Pretty fun!
Not for the faint of heart.

Tom joins Steve in the world of the DM and the vengeance of The Role Playing Hour crew draws nigh! Can Tom deal with a game with no screen or controller? Will Steve defect from Bleep to join The Role Playing Hour? Will Jim and Wilma succeed in their attempts to destroy the Bleep offices in Radio Adelaide? Will Clutterbuck’s fearsome retribution take the lives of all who have offended him!? Tune in to hear the exciting finale!

I recently had a guest spot on my favourite Radio Adelaide show, (other than mine of course!), The Role Playing Hour. Funny, funny guys. Lots of fun!

I decided to throw this episode up here as GSS host James came on as a guest host on Bleep. Thought you might like to hear it. http://bleepradioshow.com/2012/06/19/bleep-episode-twenty-nine-tue-19th-june-2012/

Steve, Tom and James deciding who is going to buy the pre show pizza.BLEEP! Episode 29:
The boys rip into some heavy gaming on ‘what we’ve been playing this week’, guest host James from Soulstone Pictures reviews California games, Steve reviews Tenchu Stealth Assassin for the playstation and Tom whips up some interesting development news!PLEASE EMAIL THE STATION here with your feedbackJust remember to put BLEEP! in the title so they know which show you are talking about

Episode 183:The GSS GRANDE FINALE! No more after this! James, Steve and special guest Epex log in to reminisce a little, to catch up, and to say goodbye and go fuck yourself to the audience.The last ever video treat:From the last ever episode of GSS to the first, here's our first attemptat GSS video work. We've come quite a way since then.Any future GSS productions will be able to be found on our YouTube page, where you can go right now to see the FAR BETTER video creations we've pumped out recently.www.youtube.com/SouthernStand

Because I'm not a complete bastard, (or maybe because I am) we are planning a finale for GSS. This will be the final planned episode. As I said previously, there may be a few sporadic eps in future, but nothing is planned. The finale episode should be a little special though, as I hope to get a bunch of our previous guests on board and hopefully an international guest of no small fame with our audience.

Stay tuned!

Sorry folks, but this is pretty much the end of GSS. Group episodes with James might happen in the future, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
But as for the solo stuff, I'm just not feeling it any more. Diving head first into the worst aspects of humanity is something one can't keep up for long, should they want to keep their sanity relatively intact.
I am spending far more time on my radio work at the moment, with hopes of actually having a career in that field.
The good news is that all the episodes of my new show are online, minus the music, and you can check them out at http://bleepradioshow.blogspot.com.au/
for the moment. The address will change to something on wordpress in the next few months since the station does not like the blogspot address, and I hope you guys will come along for the ride.

http://bleepradioshow.com/ - new address

To my surprise and delight, I haven't had to tone myself down much at all. I keep it light is all, so don't expect much of the heavy heavy from me. I tried it a few times in the first few episodes, and it didn't fit in with the rest of the show.
So if you want a little light easy fun, come check us out on Bleep. And let me know! For fuck's sake... for ONCE let me know you're listening! Maybe if you had done it previously, GSS would still be going.

Love to you all, catcha soon, go fuck yourselves.

Steve.

Yeah, I live in a sick city.

HERE'S A LITTLE SOMETHING for those who want to know what sort of environment created the Steve we all know and hope never gains true power for fear of what he will do to the rest of us.

Hitchens Memorial PetitionPlease help get a statue of Christopher erected in London by signing the e-petition below.

As a hero to reason, logic, literature, and so many other things we owe him at least that. He should be remembered, and one day when the world becomes a better place people will look at that statue and know that he was at the forefront of the struggle to make it so, and that without him we would not have arrived there.
