Fresh from the beach, I relate the difficulty of filming seaside, seeing Fur during the holiday season, or going to see Robert Cray at an Indian Reservation Casino without advance tickets. It ain’t always easy being me….

Looks like The Chillcast is officially over the hill! It’s the big 4-oh. Actually, if you do the math, this is my 48th episode… Guess I should have numbered those as well, coz then I’d be celebrating my 50th episode this month. Hrmph! Anyhow, I really dig the mix this week. Found more amazing new music released this year; it’s truly staggering how much great stuff is out there if you look hard enough!

Another loopy episode reflecting on the kindness of fans, the tininess of the podosphere, and the evilness of cats on heaters. I also share a photo of one of the viewers; could it be you?

I should have posted this sooner, but better late than never! On November 14th, David McCandless wrote a glowing review of The Chillcast with Anji Bee for RadioTimes ongoing feature, The Good Podcast Guide. It reads, in part:
Sometimes late-night radio presenters are like those annoying neighbours who have their own taste in “music” turned up too loud. Other times – and these are the best times – it’s like having a cocktail of lovely tunes and honey poured directly into your ear. The Chillcast with Anji Bee is one such show, a collection of mellow dance music from both unsigned and commercial artists.
Anji is the lead singer with a chill-out band called the Lovespirals, and the musicality and silky smoothness of her voice is quite lovely – almost hypnotic. She serves up a weekly supper of late-night musical snacks that almost everyone can chill to. Well-chosen music, voice links that make you feel cosy inside – it all adds up to an essential weekly download.
Also highlighted in this particular episode of the guide are Ricky Gervais (aka “The Podfather” – ha!), BBC Radio’s Mark Kermode, and the UK Wine Show. Not bad company to keep, I suppose.

Looks like it’s been a month to the day that I proclaimed my love for Julien Smith, and I stand by that claim today. In fact, I love him more with every passing podcast, blog entry, and – now – Flickr photo! Rowr… Seriously, though, what an amazing guy. I had no idea who I was talking to last month, but having followed up on my glib pledge to be the charter member of his cult following, well, I am truly smitten. Lately he’s been talking about how he hesitates to promote In Over Your Head as a Hip Hop music show because people are apparently closed minded about the genre. That is really too bad, because not only does Jules offer more than a mere music podcast, underground Hip Hop has more to offer than the potential listener might suppose, particularly when it is selected by the knowledgeable and socio-politically conscious Jules. Oh! And he actually does play more than Hip Hop, including some very hip Electro tunes. So if you haven’t yet, go check his shit out!
