CALL ME!

Hey everyone, so I was gonna wait to talk about this on the podcast but I couldn't wait.  

So if you look directly to your right on this page you will see a nice blue shiny button that says "Call Me" and some of you may be wondering what that is.  Well I am going to tell you. 
I just got this service called Grand Central and it gave me a phone number which I can have connected to any phone that I want to.  For example, if I was going to be out of my room then I could have all my calls to my room forwarded to my cell phone, and vica versa, but thats just the beginning.  You can also call me from this blog. Just click on the button and see what happens, it will ask you for your number, but don't worry, its not going to steal your information or anything, all it is going to do is call your number and then it will automatically call me, so if you've got a comment about the blog or the podcast, then you can call me and leave a message. I think we are going to call it the JSquared Podcast Hotline. 

But there is a ton more stuff that I can do with this, but I'll talk more about that on the next episode of the podcast, which by the way will be a good one because we are planning on having my good friend Jared Tolley as a guest on the show. So be sure to tune in. 

Ok so the moral of this post is, to click on that call me button and try it out.  I mean what could it hurt. Absolutely nothing actually. And be sure you leave me a good message.  Thanks for subscribing. 

See you on the flip side,
Burno of the JSquared Team

JSquared Review

So I meant to blog about this sooner but time is of the essence and I don't have much of it these days, so here I am.  

A couple of our faithful listeners were kind enough to email us after listening to one of the episodes and I just thought I would include a portion of that email for all of you out there to read, this email was received from Chags and they say,

"Hello gentlemen, Chags just listened to one of your podcasts. One of the
members of Chags, Chelsi, just listened for the first time. Chags thinks
the jsquared podcasts will dominate the internet at some point in the (very
distant) future...Chags is looking forward to the new episode.
Peace-out. 
Love, Chags"

So, just wanted to thank Chelsi and Maggie for emailing us this encouraging letter, and we are glad that you are looking forward to the future episodes.  
These are the types of emails that keep us going, it lets us know that you all are out there and enjoy listening. 
But also we would love to hear suggestions or topics that you would like us to talk about.  But just sending us a small email like this helps us alot as you can tell, I mean if I'm willing to blog about it then its gotta be something big. 

Alright, be lookin for the next episode here in the next week or so, it should be a good one, got alot of stuff to talk about.  Thanks again to all of you.

Keep it real,
JSquared Team

p.s.
enjoy

Hasta La Vista Baby Episode 7

Yo everyone, well it is official, the JSquared Team has now put out our first episode from hundreds of miles apart, thanks to the great technology of skype.  Unfortunately, one half of the Jsquared Team (cough, Josh Puckett, cough) forgot to use headphones while using Skype so there is an obvious echo of my voice, but we hope that you can just block that out and enjoy the great content from this weeks episode. 

We talk about a whole plethora (sorry for the use of big words) of subjects, everything from Arnold Schwarzenager to a Laser Fire Extinguisher.  Also you hear the voice of our beloved friend and roommate of Puckett, Derek Taylor, so be listening for that. We also cover the new line of iPods, so this episode is just all around fun.  

Actually this is also the first show that was done with no pre-show prep. So it is a little more scattered than usually, but that also means that we were a little more looser and able to have a little more fun with the show. 

I'll try to have some type of shownotes up, but not sure when that is gonna happen, seeing as I'm putting off homework right now just to put out the podcast and update the blog. 

So thanks for tuning in, and reading the blog, hope you'll stick around for alot more to come. We love all our faithful listeners.

Peace out,
The JSquared Team

The Galactic Suite Episode 6


If you have refreshed your iTunes Podcast feed recently you will have noticed that a new episode is finally up and running.  Now you can hear our voices once again talking about the things that you like to hear about in the world today. 


Thanks to the old version of Garageband, the last 10 minutes of the podcast got cut off for one reason or another.  And because I had a long weekend but still was pressed for time today, I just decided to put this episode out with no editing whatsoever.  Now when I say that, I mean, no shortening, or taking out the "ums" and "uhs" so we'll see how it turns out, but this is the first episode I have done that with.  Everything else is still there, the intro music, and then the song at the end, so don't worry.  
Yeah, so just wanted to warn you all about that. That might be how I start doing all the podcasts if we can pull it off hopefully, because it is a big timesaver, and then if I ever get the new version of iLife then I can start doing enhanced podcasts but we'll see.
Also, the shownotes for episode 6 can be found by clicking here
Well, enjoy "The Galactic Suite" and give us some feedback on the blog.  
Thanks to all,
Burno over and out for the JSquared Team
p.s. for your enjoyment, the picture above is what they think the Galactic Suite might look like

24-Hour Days


So I've decided that a day consisting of 24 hours is definitely not enough. Sleep, school, soccer, food, and then more school is basically what my life has consisted of for the past 2 weeks. Of course God takes priority over all of those things, but I'm just giving you a quick run-down. 

I'm writing this to send out my deepest apologies to all of you faithful listeners of the JSquared Podcast.  You all probably know why I'm apologizing but just to get it out there, I am very sorry for not getting out this last episode.  Life has been crazily busy and crazy the past couple weeks, and I have not had a chance to edit this past episode that we recorded like 3 weeks ago, lol. 
Have no fear though, it Lord willing will be edited this weekend since we have a long weekend off for Labor Day. It is a good episode though, so just sit tight and please use anymore patience that you have left in you. 
Thank you to all of you who participated in the JSquared Podcast Poll, we would like to have as many of you participating in that as possible, its just one of the many fun things that we do here at the JSquared blog and Podcast.  
Also, you might have noticed another addition to our blog, the "Josh's cool stories" section, this is where I share some cool stories that I read in my RSS reader and think that you all might be interested in. So check that out. And there are also some other additions that you can check out as well. 
So click around and see what you can find. And please feel free to leave comments anywhere you want. Don't know if I made that clear on the first post, but we like your feedback so leave comments on whatever. 
Thanks again for stopping by,
JBurns signing off for the JSquared Team
p.s. here is a picture to relax you, so look at it while you wait for the next episode patiently.
