- Double Shot: Apologies for the over-produced, obnoxious stinger between the Beau Hall tunes. Sometimes the producer droid gets a bit carried away.
- Where’s The CD?: One quick lesson for atists everywhere- if your CD isn’t available on your own website, people probably aren’t going to buy it.
- Presenting The Enhanced Feed: As of this episode I’m going to run both MP3 and AAC feeds of High Orbit. If you’ve got iTunes or some other podcatcher that can handle the enhanced feeds, try subscribing using the info on the main page.
- No More Rude Websites Please: What is it with websites playing songs, sounds, and advertisements as soon as the page loads? Am I the only one left in the galaxy that thinks it’s kind of presumptuous? What if you’re stuck in a library or at work and you want to cruise the website incognito?
- One Funky Week: We blew stuff up, we faced down the mass hysteria of space traffic… it’s time for me to head home. With any luck, I’ll be visiting the family and sipping some lemonade by the lake in a couple weeks.

This is my first time listening to HOP; keep it up.
