LET"S GET HYPHY

I was going to Oakland with a friend today to see a baseball game. Actually the Tigers vs. The A's. I thought I would go to SF after and do a podcast. I assumed we would do the show the same day this week as last. It is my day off and I drive to SF every week to do the show. Seano didn't call me back Tuesday night and sent this email Wednesday morning.

Jefe, I can't do a show today. We have dinner plans with Pamela's friends after work. What day would work for you this week? Let me know, Seano

How about not scheduling dinner on Wednesday? You know that I put myself out to come to San Francisco. It isn't easy and it is getting more expensive.

Here's Seano's Email to me.
Let's hear your reactions.

Then don't do it......You took a new job when you got back from Zurich, you had a new schedule...I asked you what days you had available...You said tues, wed. sat night and sunday.
If your schedule changed, you never told me. This is why I asked if you had another day available in my email this morning..... if you want to skype the shows...thats fine....but be prepared.... spend an hour or two less watching fox news and write something, Never once in 46 shows have you emailed me several days before the show with an idea.
This scrambling for bits on Tuesdays is getting old. You have 150% more time than I do. Find a subject and run it by me, pick up my slack why don't ya? They cannot all be home runs. I spend an average of three-four hours a week preparing. I log ideas. I toss ideas. They don't all work. I cannot come to Sac during the week. period. I very rarely can make it on the weekends, you drive a shitload of miles ... So maybe skype is the answer for awhile.
You have no mics, or mixers nor do you have an FTP access to Anthony. It is what it is. The fact that Pamela made dinner plans is not my fault...If you have a problem run it by her. Sometimes things come up Jeff.....And learn to accept criticism without sounding so bitter and I will do the same.
Its a sarcastic show and if I just happen to graze one of your boundaries (religion, politics, even work) you always go ballistic on the air. Its called self deprecation...Its not hurtful. And one last thing...Please do not criticize a bit while it is being recorded.Its not fair to sabotage me while I'm reading a list, do it beforehand. Lets talk about it before the show...days, not hours...Use email more
Seano

Thank you.
I have more time to watch Fox News, now that I don't need to think of a blog this week.

I think you guys should do a dramatic reading of your emails back and forth on the next show.
