Episode 9 - Monster Rancher
October 25, 2016 19:00Admittedly, this is what happens when an episode of the podcast is due tomorrow, and I wasn't prepared for that. In truth, if you're going to skip an episode, this might be a decent choice for that. For close to an hour, I played one of my classic favorite video games: Monster Rancher for the Playstation. Think of this as a Let's Play without a second person to bounce ideas off of, and no visual context. Oh, but if you do want visual context, subscribe to the Pants Pending Patreon! Subscrib...

September 27, 2016 19:00Donald Hawkins is a local singer songwriter here in Spokane, WA which is something that he and I share in common. Oddly enough, we both also grew up in Sacramento, CA!

It isn't available yet, but you can check out some of his other music here: Don Hawkins - "Future Ghost" on CD Baby The Claustrophobes - Underdog Pop on CD Baby Plus, Mr. Hawkins was nice enou...

Episode 4 - Colby Park
August 16, 2016 19:00Colby Park was gracious to be the guest for this episode on incredibly short notice. My lack of preparedness is your gain! Colby knows a lot about comics, and movies as you can see for yourself on his website - https://comicbookmedia.com We discuss what makes a good comic book movie, Colby's original story called "Sidelined", and we even come up with a couple of potential movie ideas with the help of a board game called "Hollywood Shuffle".

Episode 1 - Jerry Buckner (of Buckner and Garcia)
July 12, 2016 14:47In the early 1980's, Pac-Man was a wildly successful arcade game that took the world by storm. Some of the things inspired by Pac-Man included a cartoon, a board game, breakfast cereal, and a hit pop song that reached #9 on the Hot 100 Billboard Pop chart! That song was "Pac-Man Fever", and it was created by Buckner and Garcia. In 1982, Buckner and Garcia followed up the success of "Pac-Man Fever" with an entire album of songs inspired by video games, also entitled "Pac-Man Fever". In this ...
Pre-Pants Pending Episode 8 - Michael Koep
April 10, 2014 02:31Another delay, and another return! Michael Koep is the drummer for the bands Kite, and the Rub. He is also a published author, and I am of the opinion that this man is magnificent at anything he sets his mind to. His book "The Invasion of Heaven" is now available. It is part one of "The Newirth Mythology", and I believe it is worth your time. You can find out more about Michael at michaelbkoep.com
Pre-Pants Pending Episode 7 - Jessica Carson
March 18, 2014 02:13After a delay, Case No Point returns! (At least it didn't take several years this time...) For this episode, I'm joined by my friend, voiceover artist Jessica Carson. Among the topics discussed: Comedy, working in radio, and the challenges (and rewards) of raising an autistic son. Plus, "Jessica's Birthday Song" is included at the end of the episode. You can potentially hire Jessica for voice work at voiceofjessica.com
Pre-Pants Pending Episode 6 - Dawn Sanger
February 24, 2014 03:08Dawn Sanger is a good friend of mine who is very easy to talk to, and she is absolutely hilarious in my opinion. I'm trying to convince her and my friend Jeff Burris (from episode 2 of this podcast) to become comedy writers in their non-existent spare time. I am also of the opinion that Dawn has great taste in music. She built a playlist on Spotify called "Woot" that you can listen to by clicking on these words.
Pre-Pants Pending Episode 5 - Jeff Burris
February 17, 2014 02:59My friend Jeff Burris joined me for this episode. I'm thinking he'll make a good co-host on some episodes, but for now he's the guest! Jeffrey made a self-portrait that you can see here. Heads up: we earned the explicit/NSFW tag this time.
Pre-Pants Pending Episode 4 - Sum
February 10, 2014 02:48The Case No Point Podcast is back! Sure, it's been a few years, which probably translates to approximately "one eternity" in internet time. Nevertheless, it is back and I'm happy to report that my first guest is Sum! Sum created "Dragon Vol. 1" in 2012, and it is one of my favorite albums by anyone, ever. You can download it for free at: sumkilla.com. I think this Feedburner link should still work for the podcast if you want to subscribe, so my 4 subscribers might be in for quite a surpr...
Pre-Pants Pending Episode 3 - John Benjamin Interview
July 21, 2009 01:38Will the 48 minute special interview episodes ever end? Hopefully not any time soon if I continue to get the opportunity to interview folks like John Benjamin! This really is a unique episode for Case No Point. John grabbed an acoustic guitar and decided to play songs live, rather than using the studio versions. I think that approach worked very well here. ROCK! Glenn Case
Pre-Pants Pending Episode 2 - Ken Mahru Interview
July 17, 2009 07:10It's another 48 minute special interview episode, and this time I'm not the focus! Yay! Ken Mahru is a dear friend, and one of many songfighters visiting Spokane for the 9th annual Songfight Live show. The first day of Songfight Rock and Rocker is going to take place later today as I type these words, or Friday, July 17th for those of you who are reading this in a future that I have yet to experience yet. Click here to view the event's website. This episode features music by multiple musica...
Pre-Pants Pending Episode 1 - Glenn Case is interviewed by Brian C. Baer
July 02, 2009 19:00See, I didn't make you wait long for the next episode at all! Mere moments, in fact! The bad news is that this 48 minute double bonus edition of the podcast is all about me! Oh snap! Steer clear from this episode if you don't want to go into Glenn Case overload. Regardless, you should make sure to listen to episode 6. Great music to be heard, and none of it involves me. This episode features music by multiple musical projects I've been involved in: Glenn and Rachael Glenn Case Buffalo Jo...
