The more things change.. Reevsey, S'Hershell, Sheap.بقلم iamfromdapto

I'm pretty sure I've used that Prodigy (of Mobb Deep) song before. Be that as it may, you know what it is: Sheap, Langstaff & #TAFKASHW, as seen on The Project. If you know, you know.

Hello internet, remember us? (me neither) Numsi makes his return as a distinguished, married, Melbournian woodsman. But fear not, we are straight in the gutter from the start. Relevant shit: Wood's The Worst That Could Happen? - Facebook Wood's The Worst That Could Happen? - Instagram GO PINK Song: Doomtree "Slow Burn" from the 2007 album "False Ho…

Would you sell your poo for 13 grand? Spooky. #langstaff #walker #kranitis

Sheap S'Hershel Langstaff a guy with an internet connection

Episode 100. Now it all makes sense.. Don't call it a milestone. S'Hershel and I hung out at the Commercial Hotel on a Sunday afternoon and reflected on things, with podcasting, life and whatever in between. We laughed, we sung and were joined by some random guy named Darryl (Port Kembla copped on). Remember to keep an eye on our Facebook page for …

Alright, time to kick this shit into overdrive ladies, gentlemen and non-specific folk. It's been a while, but we're trying something here. More on that in a second. This episode was recorded on a beautiful Sunday afternoon in Port Kembla at the mighty-mighty Commercial Hotel (now with a bistro, check it out here). I was joined by regular fictional…

Yet another return after a lengthy period. I may not be consistent, but I'm consistent with my inconsistency. It's a return on levels; back to the Commercial, Sean Sheap and S'Hersel Walker are also back.. Hashtag something else back, too. Because; rule of comedy. Something. Laugh along with us or at us, either or. We're not out to hurt anyone, we …

Comic Gong 2017! Sheap, S'Hershel and myself returned to the epicentre of Illawarra fandom for another year running. These are our stories. Special mentions go out to Louise and Fiona for the Co-Production assists, and Lenny for providing the "ambiance" for the first five minutes. Thank-you linesmen, thank-you ball-boys.…

We start off on a sad note with this one, Wollongong Hip Hop lost one of it's more colourful characters last week, rest in peace to Rob The Rich as well as condolences to his family and friends. Afterwards it's the return of S'Hershel Walker, wherein he brought his mate Paul Keys over to my place a few weeks ago. We drank wine, ate garlic bread & s…

This one is bad with a capital shit. Two weeks ago I went on a whirlwind drive around New South Wales for work in 2 days. I was delirious, I recorded some of it, you've been warned. The link to the video I was talking about on the intro can be found at podkembla.com.

This week I had a chat with Nik Ranger of Melbourne band Dada Ono. Did we talk about music? Hell nawww! That would be too professional of me wouldn't it? Be that as it may, we had a lovely chat about a bunch of things, but it all ends with Star Trek, cats and podcasts, which basically sums up my life. The music speaks for itself anyway, for which y…

THIS WEEK! It's a good ole fashioned bit o waxing philosophical with Sweeney, live from the West Coast. If you've been listening for a while, you'll know his voice, and maybe even know him in person. If you haven't and you're new, first of all welcome, and then second of all; brace yourselves to hear two grown men, who could talk to each other unde…

Sometimes, doing this silly podcast affords me the opportunity to be exposed to people and ideas I may have never come across. Sometimes I even get to talk to these purveyors of interesting ideas and projects, and this is one of these episodes. Meet Jochen Gutsch, the sound architect behind the Sydney instrumentalist group Hinterlandt. Jochen was n…

The Food Fusion boys met me at Dicey Riley's and we talked fusing food, the correlation between my version of bolognese and my former grass roots revolutionary movement, reality television and food.. And other things. We were even lucky to get a surprise cameo from a guy none of us knew. All in an afternoons podcasting. I know I've used the intro s…

Long intro, even longer episode! On this one I met up with scholar, podcast producer and friend of mine, Ben, and we hung out at Port Kembla Leagues on a Saturday afternoon and discussed comics, Stephen King and the internet. With a few other things thrown in for good measure. If I wasn't such a lazy man I'd have a number of links for you to click,…

Crossover! Swapcast! Collaborayshun!! Anyone who listens to this podcast knows who Andy is; the guy gets a mention nearly every episode. I'm sure I'm frightening him at this point.. Don't tell him I said that! On this one, we met at Cocoon Floatation a few weeks ago on a very warm Sunday morning for a float session at Cocoon Floatation. It was actu…

Last month, myself and Peter Langstaff met up once again at the world famous Dicey Riley's just before he embarked on his monthlong voyage around Australia following The Boss himself, John Cougar Mellencamp.. You'll get that poor attempt at humour when you hear it. Anyway, as the Springsteen tour comes to a close, check in on Peter's blog to read a…

The return!.... Again! This one has a loooong intro. Long. Sixteen minutes to be precise, including the song. A note on the intro song; it's from the recently released RTJ3 by the mighty-mighty Run The Jewels and features Zach De La Rocha and it's awesome. I can't remember if I dreamt this, or it's actually a legitimate rumour, but I've heard somew…

I'm experimenting with scheduled posts for this one. If it doesn't work, well you won't see/hear it. If it does, then hooray technology! It's part 2 of our record fair shenanigans. Don't forget to follow Sean Sheap, DJ Fury, Lord Lucifer and last but definitely not least, The Crate Diggers Collective!…

ALL. STAR. (pod)CAST. YO. Myself, Sean Sheap and S. Hershel Walker returned to the Illawarra Record Fair for the 3rd time this year and recorded TWO episodes. This is part one, where we were joined by Peter Langstaff and two former Vox FM alums in DJ Fury and Bruno the Bluesman, also known as Dr. Dust, according to Lord Lucifer. We neglected to act…

This weekend people! It's here! The Crate Diggers Collective proudly presents the Illawarra Record Fair III, with colour commentary by us rapscallions at Pod Kembla! If you haven't heard already, check the event info below, and also check out the exciting things that Sean Sheap and S'Hershel have happening with their ventures too! On this episode w…

Peter Langstaff is a really nice guy. Until very recently he was a part of the long running local music radio show "Doing it Locally" on VoxFM. On top of that, he plays and makes music too. A few weeks ago we met up at Dicey Riley's to talk about music, podcasts, comedy and of course radio. In particular, community radio. On this episode, basically…

It's been a minute, or to be more specific it's been over twenty thousand minutes, since our last episode. This time Numsi and myself talked about his recent posting at The Smooth Festival of Chocolate at The Rocks in Sydney. Naturally, being that Numsi is a Melbourne food and drink guru, we talked about food and coffee along with our usual blend o…

The Sheap is back! This time around Sean Sheap and I met up at Dicey Riley's and talked a bunch of smack. Topics covered were the internet, hip hop culture and The Get Down, the downfall of Masters, other things and of course the internet. Yes, I wrote "the internet" twice. Now I've said it three times, and if I was to list it corresponding with th…

After an extended break, we're back! On this episode I met up with previous guest Marcelo Baez and newcomer to Pod Kembla, Pat Grant. Both of these fine gentlemen are comics creators, ambassadors, educators and all round great blokes. Another thing they have in common is their superb and iconic poster design; in Marcelo's case in the form of the 3D…

Last weekend myself, S'Hershel and Sean Sheap returned to the Illawarra Record Fair at the Bulli Workers Club. This time we actually recorded from inside the room where the records were being sold! That PM Dawn cover song springs to mind.. Also making a return to the podcast is event organiser, Lord Lucifer of the Devils Jukebox on Northside Radio …

I hung out with Troy and Arlin at Troys studio last weekend. I've known Troy forever, we grew up just a few houses away and, along with our respective sisters, spent a fair bit of time together as young'ns having all kinds of adventures.. Then high-school happened. Some people thrive in that environment, some people don't and others have no idea wh…

Anne-Louise runs the Vault Cabaret, which is held at the Vault on Wentworth Street here in mighty-mighty Port Kembla, and has done the last 13 years. I reached out to Anne-Louise a little while ago because I came across an article about how she was starting up walking tours in Port Kembla. This area has a rich history throughout it's boom times as …

I've mentioned Andy on the podcast numerous times before, and now he's on Pod Kembla! Ahh the magic of podcasts.. So now you're going to hear me talking about 9 million* dollars until it arrives, ALL. THE. TIME. YAWL! No, in all seriousness, I came across Andy at the beginning of the year through his podcast "The Andy Social Podcast", but that's no…

This time around I talked running (a concept foreign to me, unless we're talking metaphorically) with Josh and Karen. They're both avid runners, only picking up the habit of it in the last few years and now they participate in marathons. Like, marathons! Josh is, first and foremost, an artist and he documents his running quest as an evolving online…

Last weekend I went to Wollongong's fast growing comics and pop culture festival "Comic Gong", and met up with Sean Sheap, S'Hershel, DJ Hifi, Brendan and Angus. And we talked. I ate a burger beforehand, and it was dee-to-the-licious (Thanks Three Chimneys). We laughed, cried and ate chocolate. One of these things we actually didn't do, I'll leave …

Sean Sheap and S'Hershel* met me at the Charles Hotel in Fairy Meadow on a Sunday morning and we soaked in the glorious ambiance and had a chat. The Charles holds some significance for Sheap, which he goes into when we were sitting on the front courtyard, where we held court over the rest of the yard. The fact that we were the only ones there at th…

Okay, this one has some backstory. Two years ago, Megan from Cocoon Floatation in Figtree contacted me after listening to this podcast and asked me if I would like to try out floating and podcasting about it. I think when I originally got the emails from her I thought she wanted me to podcast from inside the tank.. Yeah I know, a ridiculous notion,…

The Skype crew has a new name, thus the Church of Daptology is now in session. We discuss how one becomes more likeable by reading listicles, as well as a bit of half baked politics and there's even a "too much information" moment from myself. If I'm realistic, Pod Kembla in general could be accused of having too much (useless) information about me…

Taking it back to the source this week, the Skype crew returns and we've added a new member. Joining Matt, Nugz and myself this week is Vaughny. We talk that Daptology Philosophy (trademark), like we only know how to do. More to come on that in a week or two.. Stay tuned; the revolution will be podcasted and then consumed at your own leisure.…

On location! I met up with Sean Sheap and Snidermayne at the recent "Illawarra Record Fair" at Bulli Workers Club. We talked a little music, a little hot button vulgarity and a whole lot of crap and it was marvellous. Special mention goes out to Lord Lucifer of the Devil's Jukebox for making a cameo on this humble rag-tag podcast, and for putting o…

Mike Elrington is a blues musician who will be playing at Janes in North Wollongong on the 10th of March, to launch his recently released album "Two Lucky Stars". Mike graciously indulged me with his time to chat about his album, music and life in general. A little house keeping; near the end of the episode I mention Stevie Ray Vaughan, what I mean…

Everyday people. Everydaieeyay.

New year, new fees! Featuring the OG Skype Crew. Extended Player forthcoming.

End of year outrage wrap ups, singularity fears, festivities; this is Pod Kembla. Nugz and Matt joined me in the "studio" (aka the back room of my house) to talk the talk we like to talk. The motto to come away with for 2015 comes from Nugz; #sortitout Here's the AV Club article if you want to see what the rest of the outrage was all about. http://…

This time I have a very special guest in the form of Jennifer Macey (@jennifermacey) who is a journalist by trade, but came over to talk about podcasts; something near and dear to my heart. This Wednesday (25th of November) in Wollongong Jen is teaching a workshop about podcasting called PODCAST SKILLS: Recording Oral Histories being run in conjunc…

My bad it's anthropomorphic: ascribing human form or attributes to a being or thing not human, especially to a deity. NOT Anamorphic: the cinematography technique of shooting a widescreen picture on standard 35 mm film or other visual recording media with a non-widescreen native aspect ratio.

Back again, for the 62nd time..

It's Michael Caton, not Michael Caine. You learn (or re-learn) something new everyday.

We have a dream and it's ever evolving.

There actually was a dog barking, but after edits it seems there isn't.. #mystery

They call it a pull start, it's more like a kick-start.

Us for king of everything.

So it was anal, and not arse. I blame the ambiguous spelling of arse/ass, it's not because I didn't read the article.. No not at all. Also, yes, the sound, I know.
