More of that, again

I wrote this on Saturday: A slow(er than usual) four-mile jog, but at least it finally felt like spring. Finally, begrudgingly, not-without-a-fight, spring. And, look! It was! Spring!

Today, a whole new season! That’s not true! This season never really left!

Look, there’s video proof!

Status …

Maybe March’s spring weather will show up in May.

But don’t count on it.

I did a monologue. Why not?

I practiced media things today

Today is the fourth of April. We had more snow flurries today. For much of the day, in fact. If felt like 32 degrees this morning. Because, in April, you should still be using wind chill.

This is silly talk in the face of all of that, I know, but maybe there is hope.

Yesterday was the 50th anniversary of the murder of Martin Luther King, Jr. That makes today the 50th anniversary of an important newspaper column. We talked about it on the podcast today:

Also today I talked to Raju Narisetti. He’s the CEO of the Gizmodo Media Group, and an IU grad. He’s in town for a campus-wide program and we had him in the studio for an interview today. I’m not sure when that one will get published — it takes some time — but I’ll get to share it eventually.

The weather is better, almost springlike even

It is warmer today, and sunny. So that’s better than yesterday. But I saw this at one of the nearby sandwich shops.

So I am not, as they say, shook.

So I went back into the studio. I played with the jib and made visual composition jokes:

No jokes here, its an important and serious and informative podcast we created today. Dominick Jean is a smart guy like that:

A late night show some of our students produced:

And their news show:

So much media!

Speaking of April fools

It snowed yesterday. This being spring, and that being the first day of April it made perfect sense:

And it stuck around until this morning and this afternoon.

This being spring, after all. Last night’s snow was the third we’ve had this spring and the fourth or fifth since these guys came out of the ground …

Better to stay inside, curl up and be warm indoors. Because its spring and all that. Here’s a podcast we did for today. It has to do with sports, primarily basketball, which is played indoors.

Also, it’s a good day to cuddle up to the black cat, who, I’m pretty sure, just wants warmer weather. And tuna:

A show the sports crew produced last week and released yesterday:

I actually talked about basketball for a moment here

There is a basketball tournament and Indiana is in the finals. We have friends from Virginia Tech, the team who will tomorrow being playing the role of the villains. Which, of course, they are not. In point of fact, the Hokies are kind of the underdog here. Both teams started the year slow, and both teams figured it all out at the right time during the season. But, because of seeding, the final WNIT game will be played at Indiana. And Assembly Hall has been getting bigger and bigger crowds as they work their way through this tournament. It’s possible that none of the women for either team have every played in front of a crowd the size they’ll see tomorrow. And they’re all going to be wearing crimson and cream.

So Virginia Tech, really, they’re not the favorite in this game. We have friends from there, so …

Also, Justin and I did a fun show for today. It’s about that guy that is trying to launch himself into space with a homemade rocket. Or, at least he wants you to think that’s what he’s doing. Who can really say?

From The Media Is Changing Department

That department is going to be renamed, something that crystalizes its focus, and the nature of things. What about … The Office Of By Now Thoroughly Unnecessary Updates That Media Is Obviously Changing … The acronym is dreadful, but the name has a certain ring to it.
