g-dammit how can i read this at work. schmalz your laziness is robbing me of my one guilty pleasure. aargh.
(thanks, though)
I know, sorry about that, but transcribing takes waaaay too much time. If someone wants to volunteer to do it, maybe we can make it worth their while?
if this is your one guilty pleasure, i am sorry for you. go downstairs and shoplift a powerbar at the cafe.
GREAT SOUND OFF “SOUNDS COOL…” LIKE A SEVENTH GRADER WHO JUST SCORED A DATE FOR THE WINTER DANCE.
yes! funny
I appreciate that you assume I went to any 7th grade dances.
yes, pathetic, no argument
These are the best. I can put them on, and do work while I listen. Fortunately, my boss could give a crap if I listen and work and the same time.
Nothing will increase your productivity like my nasally drone squeaking in the background.
What are the beeps 2 min in? Censor or call waiting?
West Coast Reader (why is wheel sucker default now!?!?)
Call waiting – probably Creed calling to borrow my car…
about half way through, give me til the end of the day and I can send to you
Fun to listen to–seems like a cool guy
Dear God! Are you actually transcribing this?
Here’s the Cliff’s Notes transcription:
“Hey Schmalz. Yeah, you’re a cool guy, don’t let anybody tell you otherwise. The Tour? Eh, I’ll be lucky if I get top 10. Say, can I interest you in another Allen Lim rice bar?”
Excuse me, there was no rice bar offer.
hell, beats the other boring crap i have to do…..
We need a Tom Zirbel interview.
Moved to Off Topic
TOUR DE SCHMALZ!!! TOUR SE SCHMALZ!!! TOUR DE SCHMALZ!!! TOUR DE SCHMALZ!!!
ANIMAL LIKE!!!!
one of the amazing things about this blog was precisely that you did transcribe these interviews… oh well, another loss to the printed word in favor of listening to VDV on a cell phone with a wonky connection

for JV. He is officially aristocratic. At least he prefers a good overall region for wine. Southern Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape wines are tasty grapes.
I swear!!! Just got sidetracked, will finish tomorrow
Great interview. I love this things. I really hope there are a couple more during the tour. I prefer the audio so I can listen to it on my ipod.
VDV and JV are so cool for doing this for us fans.
