Taco Tuesday!

June 29, 2022 06:28

Okay, this was actually recorded on a Friday, but it’s being uploaded on a Tuesday, so it still works. That said, if it makes you more comfortable to think of it as “Taco Time!”, it’s yo’ thang. Do whatcha wana do. Etc., etc. Download, grab some tacos—hard, soft, regular, fish, whatever suits you—and maybe some … Continue reading Taco Tuesday! →

Adventures in Tandem

June 10, 2022 23:42

I could swear I posted this earlier, but I can’t find it on the site, so if this is a duplicate adventure, somebody let me know and I’ll take this one down. This was recorded way back on June 15, 2017. I thought about adding some commentary to it, because there are stretches where I’m … Continue reading Adventures in Tandem →

Back on the Block

June 09, 2022 04:52

At long last, Blind Geek Adventures is back! I explain the reason for the insanely long hiatus during our walk around the block, so I won’t write it here. This time out, we’re testing some new binaural mics which are part of the Ambeos Smart Headset from Sanheiser. These are designed specifically for the iPhone, … Continue reading Back on the Block →

Crappy Unboxing of Airpods Max Test Podcast

February 05, 2021 01:47

Hey, folks. Long time no see. This particular episode might not be available for very long. It’s mainly being put up to test the feed, which has been out of commission for a couple years now, at least as far as posting new episodes is concerned. We’ve been able to get episodes which had been … Continue reading Crappy Unboxing of Airpods Max Test Podcast →

Jackson’s Corner Walk

September 02, 2019 00:06 - 48.7 MB

Hiya, gang. This was recorded on August 17, 2019, just a few weeks ago. Jackson’s Corner is a local restaurant about half a mile from my house. Zeke and I decided to make a morning sojourn of it, to test out some … well, re-discovered equipment. I’m very happy with the results. I forgot I … Continue reading Jackson’s Corner Walk →

Breakfast with BlindGeek

May 02, 2016 02:09 - 135 MB

Holy jeez, it’s been a while! Yes, this podcast still exists. Yes, I plan on making more frequent contributions to it. I know, I did say in the beginning that this podcast would be irregular, but never in my wildest dreams did I think there’d ever be over a year between updates!!!! Last Friday, I … Continue reading Breakfast with BlindGeek →

Ericspace

June 26, 2015 23:10 - 12.3 MB

Taking another bit of inspiration from the springboard for my love of podcasts and podcasting that was/is Blind Cool Tech, I give you <1 href=”http://bgadventures.net/podcast/BGA03-29-2015a.mp3″>this, a virtual sound-seeing tour of my new home. And in the words of Forrest Gump… …that’s all I have to say about that.

Superburrito Sojourn

June 26, 2015 21:48 - 51.8 MB

Hiya, folks! We’re going back to March of this year. This was one of my first walks in my new neighborhood. Zeke and I are accompanied by our friend Menissa, and we go forth to seek adventure and lunch at a restaurant called Superburrito. It’s a longer podcast than usual, because I figured I’d let … Continue reading Superburrito Sojourn →

Mic Gain Experimentation

Hi, ev’rybody! I need your help. I’ve taken a short trip to get the mail, and recorded it in two different ways; I’d like your help to let me know how you’d like to hear future BGA podcasts. Do you prefer the sound of the first half, where we walk to the mailbox, or the … Continue reading Mic Gain Experimentation →

They’re here, they’re here! The brand-new mics are here!!! In this episode, we unbox the new in-ear binaural mics and take them for a test run to Starbucks. Fun times to be had! I’m very interested to know if you, the listener, notice any difference in the spaciality and/or quality of these new microphones. I … Continue reading Testing the New Equipment →

ApplePlay with ApplePay

February 13, 2015 01:18 - 17.4 MB

Here’s the episode discussed in the previous one, from October 30, 2014. Step into the WayBac machine and let’s go. Incidentally, I do still have the mono recording mentioned. So if there’s interest, I’ll post it… although I should tell you, we’re going to be exploring that whole area in depth on this podcast in … Continue reading ApplePlay with ApplePay →

End of the Beginning

February 12, 2015 05:35 - 27.4 MB

Hi, folks. Glad to finally be back. Please forgive the audio quality in this particular episode. The why of it is explained in the episode itself, so I won’t bother to repeat it here. It sure feels great to be back! The website mentioned in this episode is Dreaming with Jeff. As I did on … Continue reading End of the Beginning →

In Line for a New iPhone

October 02, 2014 20:44 - 61.7 MB

Wow, has it been a long time! Over a year! Not an intentional break, I assure you, and not something I plan on repeating. We’ll get into why the break happened in a future podcast, during a walk. And when I say future, I mean a couple weeks at most, not a couple months. Anyway, … Continue reading In Line for a New iPhone →

A Trip to the Pool

September 29, 2013 07:10 - 55.5 MB

If you listen to this podcast for the chatter, this may not be the podcast for you. Zeke and I put BlindSquare to the test by tagging the entrance to the Cascade Swim Center. I tagged the entrance as opposed to just the address because in order to get to the entrance itself, I knew … Continue reading A Trip to the Pool →

Spaghetti Making 101

September 26, 2013 00:44 - 76.1 MB

We’ve been doing a lot of walking in these first episodes, so I thought I’d show you another kind of fun to be had in this podcast. We’re taking a trip in the time machine, back to June of 2009, when I took a crack at making spaghetti. This was originally published on the Blind … Continue reading Spaghetti Making 101 →

Support Your Local Savage

September 25, 2013 23:34 - 66.7 MB

No, its not what it sounds like. Zeke and I are heading to the local monthly blindness support group. We hit a bit of a stumbling block at the beginning, but once we’re back on track, it’s smooth sailing and fun for all. Then, on the way home, we get into a discussion about one … Continue reading Support Your Local Savage →

BlindSquare Test Run

September 23, 2013 05:04 - 38.4 MB

In this podcast, Zeke and I put BlindSquare, an app for the iPHone which uses Foursquare and an open-source map system to combine into a formidably competent GPS app for blind travelers, to the test. We start out simply going to meet our friend Terry for morning coffee, and wind up getting more of an … Continue reading BlindSquare Test Run →

Skecher’s Go-Walks Go for a Walk

September 23, 2013 02:17 - 12.5 MB

Hi, everybody. Already, some changes are upon us. The theme is gone. I still love the song, but it came down to a simple choice between more or less post-production. So thanks, Kevin Reeves, for letting me use your song. No hard feelings. Just decided to go themeless. Anyway, in this podcast, I unbox my … Continue reading Skecher’s Go-Walks Go for a Walk →
