A&M SHOW #82: Donald Trump Will Certainly Be Upset
Because women have been getting a lot of mixed messages about mammograms and hormone replacement therapy, today we welcomed Dr. Larry Norton, the head of breast cancer programs at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City and former president of the American Society of Clinical Oncology to give us crucial answers that every woman needs to know. Our next guest, good-will ambassador for the U.N., Mia Farrow, has been absolutely tireless in revealing the murder, rape, and brutality that the people of the Darfur region in Africa face on a daily basis, and today she showed us why this is a horror that won't go away until the entire world takes action. Please visit her website at miafarrow.org or unicefusa.org for more information on this critical issue and to find out how you can help. And finally, the Osmond who's a little bit rock 'n roll is showing his softer side on the new CD Love Songs of the Seventies, and today, Donny Osmond stopped by to perform "Sometimes When We Touch". Love Songs of the Seventies is in stores now, and everyone in our audience took home a copy.

A&M SHOW #81: Res-o-Lucians
This unexpected fall so stunned me that I have no clear recollection of my sensations at the time. I was at first drawn down to a depth of about twenty feet.

A&M SHOW #80: Hirtles of Fun
'Keep your forgiveness for those who ask for it,' Ben Hirtle answered, turning away from me with a sneer. I saw that he was too hardened for any words of mine to influence him. There was but one way for it. I called in the inspector and gave him into custody. A search was made at once not only of his person but of his room and-of every portion of the house where he could possibly have concealed the gems; but no trace of them could be found, nor would the wretched boy open his mouth for all our persuasions and our threats. We cover such topics of public school teachers, microwavable babies, and a few spontaneous rants.

A&M SHOW #79: A Traditional Chinese Massage With David Wain
David Wain had never said as much before, and I must admit that his words gave me keen pleasure, for I had often been piqued by his indifference to my admiration and to the attempts which I had made to give publicity to his methods. I was proud, too, to think that I had so far mastered his system as to apply it in a way which earned a personal idol of mine, David Wain's, approval. He now took the stick from my hands and examined it for a few minutes with his naked eyes. Then with an expression of interest he laid down his cigarette, and carrying the cane to the window, he looked over it again with a convex lens. Ben Hirtle guest hosts with special guest David Wain.

A&M SHOW #78: Oh, You Must Be Jackie Gleason!
`Look here,' said Lucian, showing me the basket, with a com- passionate and tender smile after we had talked a little; `here's poor Clara's supper, served out every night. Here's her allowance of bread, and here's her slice of cheese, and here's her rum -- which I drink. This is Mr Marc Werner's breakfast for to-morrow, served out to be cooked. Two mutton chops, three potatoes, some split peas, a little flour, two ounces of butter, a pinch of salt, and all this black pepper. It's stewed up together, and taken hot, and it's a nice thing for the gout, I should think!'

A&M SHOW #77: Cry The Beloved Podcast
Where you stand the grass is rich and matted, you cannot see the soil. But the rich green hills break down, much like the break down Rosie O'Donnell faced when quitting 'The View.' They fall to the valley below, and falling, change their nature. For they grow red and bare; they cannot hold the rain and mist, and the streams are dry in the kloofs. Too many cattle feed upon the grass, and too many fires have burned it. Stand shod upon it, for it is coarse and sharp, and the stones cut under the feet. It is not kept, or guarded, or cared for, it no longer keeps men, guards men, cares for men. The titihoya does not cry here any more. Look for a podcast filled with gentlemanly accessories, evaluations of Don Imus, and a scholarly debate on sociopolitical issues!

A&M SHOW #76: Interviews, Outrage, and Pop Culture
In short, after some more examination, and a great deal more conversation, a neighbouring magistrate was readily induced to take the joint bail of a trigger-happy, over-dramatic Cho Seung-Hui and Mr. Don Imus for Lucian's appearance if he should ever be called upon; and Ben Hirtle, ever the good guest-host, being rewarded with a couple guineas, returned to town with divided opinions on the subject of their expedition: the latter gentleman on a mature consideration of all the circumstances, inclining to the belief that the burglarious attempt had originated with the Family Pet; and the former being equally disposed to concede the full merit of it to the great Mr. Conkey Chickweed. Interviews include Walt Paper and a somewhat choppy Pablo Cubarle of Contramano, Ben Hirtle guest-hosts.

A&M SHOW #75: I Know You Didn't or The Ballad of Nancy Mills
There were periodical occasions when Mr. Ryan Stept went over the homes of those we knew, told fantastical stories of winning fights. On these occasions he took his books and papers into Mr. Bumble's room, and one of the up-stairs clerks came down into the outer office. Finding such clerk on Wemmick's post that morning, Lucian and Marc knew what was going on; even whilst Lucian struggled with sickness, but, Lucian was not sorry to have Mr. Jaggers and Stept together, as Stept would then hear for himself that I said nothing to compromise him aside from the addressing of his stories.

A&M SHOW #74: The Real McCoy
His narrative finished, and their questions exhausted, Lucian Wintrich then produced Shirley Phelps-Roper's authority to receive the answer to our listener's questions. Shirley Phelps-Roper's eyes retired a little deeper into her head when with each enquiry, but she answered frankly. While that was in course of being done, Lucian looked on Marc at as he wrote, and Mr. Jaggers, poising and swaying himself on his well-polished boots, looked on at me. "I am sorry, Lucian Baxter Wintrich IV," said he, as I put the cheque in my pocket, when he had signed it, "that we do nothing for you."

A&M SHOW #72: St. Patrick's Day Drama
It was a trial to my feelings, on the next day but one, to see Lucian arraying himself in his Sunday clothes to accompany Marc to Davon's St. P Party in Oakland. However, as he thought his court-suit necessary to the occasion, it was not for me tell him that he looked far better in his working dress; the rather, because I knew he made himself so dreadfully uncomfortable, entirely on my account, and that it was for me he pulled up his shirt-collar so very high behind, that it made the hair on the crown of his head stand up like a tuft of feathers.

A&M SHOW #71: Wiz Khalifa Is Way Too Full of Himself

If Wiz Khalifa is 'Prince of the City' then we may all end up finding a new city... with a less bafoonish prince '411 REpresent y'all!'

Lucian makes an admirable attempt at his first in-person interview, covering topics with married couple and musical artists Jude and Anna Eliza of "Fuck What You Heard This Is What We Know," in a story that does stray from the light-hearted reaching stories of drugs, sex, and a very slight amount of roc... I mean "Industrial Folk."

After much grief over this it was concluded we would pick the SPR interview up in the next episode and release a bit of comic genius 'Unkie Dunkie' as a content substitute for this chapfallen, lost show.

A&M SHOW #58: Advice From Shirley's Sisiter or Get Away From Me Estella!
At the appointed time I returned to Miss Havisham's, and my hesitating ring at the gate brought out Estella. She locked it after admitting me, as she had done before, and again preceded me into the dark passage where her candle stood. She took no notice of me until she had the candle in her hand, when she looked over her shoulder, superciliously saying, "You are to come this way today," and took me to quite another part of the house. All information contained in this episode is alleged and the speakers take no responsibility for the validity of content.

As a bead of sweat glistened down the forehead of both Lucian and Marc in a sort of synchronicity characteristic of the marvel that is this program while someone lay dying on the other side of the room with no sign of a weapon but myspace on the computer screen. The myspace killer strikes again, or does he? In this early December episode Lucian and Marc discuss Cosmo Kramer's rants, oversensitivity, and a cult of 12 apostles attempting to reach enlightenment through sex.

A&M SHOW #56: Medallion Balls of Fire
The time came, without bringing with it any relief to Lucian Wintrich's feelings, and the company came, namely middle-school chum Maggie Del Presto who took part in nothing but infantile snobbery leading only to a successful return snub by Lucian Wintrich. Mr Tommy Kolos, united to a Roman nose and large thickly black hair, pompously slicked back, had a deep voice which he was uncommonly proud of; indeed it was understood among his acquaintance that if you could only give him his head, he would read the clergyman into fits; he himself confessed that if the Church was `thrown open.' Sarah Jo Baron Antonucci however would soon add conflict to this ever-growing affair with Mr Tommy Kolos resulting in an angry telephone conversation. He would not despair of making his mark in it. Carlos Mencia is also covered in this chronicle, he punished the public with this show- Comedy Central, Mind of Mencia. Keywords: Carlos Mencia Blows, Carlos Mencia Sucks, Carlos Mencia is not mexican, Mind of Mencia is not funny, Carlos Mencia is an idiot, Carlos Mencia is a moron

`Gay barista?,' said Uncle Pumblechook: a large hard-breathing middle-aged alow man, with a mouth like a fish, dull staring eyes, and sandy hair standing upright on his head, so that he looked as if he had just been all but choked, and had that moment come to; `Gangster bitches, as the compliments of the season -- I have brought you, Mum, a bottle of sherry wine -- and I have brought you, Mum, a bottle of port wine.' Every episode with a Brit doing an american accent is fine by the company included, listener voicemails are presented, as a profound novelty the 'grape fall' video is sub-presented, with exactly the same words, and carrying the two bottles like dumb-bells.

A&M SHOW #52: The Treaty of Versailles
Lucian is back at home after a horrid ordeal with his psychopathic father and his busy-body family. Marc is caught in romantic disarray in relation to his current love affair and their future. In explanation of the title; much like the Treaty of Versailles, Lucian had to sign an agreement drafted by his father which caused much embarrassment and defeat, much like what the French caused the Germans back in WWI. So watch out Lucian's father, and watch out France, because in time Lucian/Germany will come back with their own ultimatums.

Topics include the Steelers and their owner, the SATS this weekend, and brief lady interests. It was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way- in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.

We also cover the glory of soundboards and modern technology. So sit back in your Charles Eames lounge chair and take a sip of your lightly chilled Martinez Bujanda Conde de Valdemar Crianza and maybe after youre done listening you can join Lucian in his newly acquired villa in Sweden.

Finally we are on a brand new less than 3 hour old MacBook Pro with a nice glass of Pinot Gritio (ironically the same drink being administered during the laptop/wine accident of weeks before). We discuss the ladies, briefly touch upon trends, listener feedback, and the world in general.

A&M SHOW #34: Aaron, You Are Being An Idiot, Middle School Memoirs Part II (With a Glass of Pinot Grigio)
While lounging in the den of Lucian Wintrich's multi-story luxury compound in the heart of the city of Pittsburgh he receives a call on his diamond and platinum plated cell phone from student Aaron Waldick accusing Fortune 500 company owner Lucian Wintrich of embellishing his riches on the account of having to take investors in the lounge when it is a low risk investment. Well apparently Aaron Waldick doesn't understand comedic timing, and no doubt will not understand the steep irony in which this paragraph is written intertwined with.

A&M SHOW #29: Fucking Hell, God Damn, We Lost the Show!
First off let me say this episode is NOT a good one to listen to if youre a first time listener, I recomend starting with either episode 24 or 28 and then if you like the show work your way up. I guess you win some, you loose some. In episode 29 of Acorns & Merlot we lost a good half of the podcast due to an audio glitch. We lost an entire segment on Carlos Mencia (what an idiot, we will talk about it in episodes to come). What we did get was two interviews, one with Mike Cravotta and another with our Scotland Listener Jamie.

A&M SHOW #28:
In episode 28 of Acorns & Merlot, Lucian and Marcstart off by discussing a brief but frightening alleged altercation with a Mr. TG's toothless, armed father. We also cover TG's wildest fantisies, such as his aspiration to take up residence in rural Alabama. Afterwards, we briefly discuss Marc's genus with the ladies, and almost call a sex line before it is discovered that they charge a connection fee. So add us to your myspace at myspace.com/acornsandmerlot, but a pin in the frappr map at frappr.com/acornsandmerlot and eat a bagle in celebration of the new A&M listener count.

A&M SHOW #13: Fuck George Washington!
Back in action after a few less then provocative episodes, episode 13... a number that is unlucky for some proves to be quite lucky for us here at the Acorn Broadcasting Company (ABC). In episode 13 we come dangeriously close in a full understanding of EC=MC2, aswell as discussing "Jeff the Office Jerk," a fellow working for a certain company who has caused Lucian nothing but hardship, Jeffrey Diehl (or Jeff Diehl) is unrespectful, offencive, rude, and quite a busy-body, that aside we also discuss polish jokes, Kindsey "lets talk about sex," and a few other issues. So klink your glasses, we have totally out-done ourselves! Cheers mate.

A&M SHOW #12: Harry Ladies, Skittles, and a call to Cingular Wireless
Ms. Dudro, the CAD teacher at Taylor Allderdice High School, was to dine with us; and Mr Hubble the wheelwright and Mrs Hubble; and Uncle Pumblechook (Joe's uncle, but Mrs Joe appropriated him), who was a well-to- do corn-chandler in the nearest town aiding Ms. Dudro in her collecting, specifically pyramids and pens, and drove his own chaise- cart. The dinner hour was half-past one. When Tyrell and I got home, we found the table laid, and Ms Dudro dressed in necklaces of gold and braclets to match draped upon her arms of a think fur, and the dinner dressing, and the front door unlocked (it never was at any other time) for the company to enter by, and everything most splendid. And still, not a word of the Skittles much less the call to Cingular Wireless that plagued my mind with such distain.

Two podcasts in a 24 hour time span, I know you guys must be jumping with glee and childish delight. Tonight Lucian does a solo-cast about different clothing styles/brands, what they emanate, and a brief fashion history. There is also a breach in the otherwise tight A&M security which ends in Lucian father having a copy of A&M on CD given to him by the office 'jerk.' Warm up some hot chocolate, because Lucian's forecast for tonight is -2 and comical.
