Hey all,
My pumkin experienced a loss in her family and now this week’s schedule is up in the air. I am making all the time that I can available to her in her time of need.
So this means I may not release a new episode this Sunday. I was also not planning on doing an episode next week because I am going to visit my family that weekend.
The bottom line is that the next time you can expect a podcast from me will be April 23.
The silver lining, how ever small it is going to be, is that I will probably finish the purple monkey sooner. But, there is not much comfort for me in that today.
It’s the April’s fools obligatory knitting group stories episode. Here we are three weeks into a guys knitting podcast and I am already talking about my feminine side. By this I mean I am talking about the women in my life. I guess that makes me the foolfor thinking I could actually get away with a podcast without giving up a little bit of my manliness.
If you can’t stand the relationship stories or the mother story, please tune in next week. I promise to turn on my guy knitting manliness once more. Yeah… I swear.
Also… Check out the post on my site about the upcoming young guy knitter search. I am really excited about this one.
Also… Please check out the group that my brother works for and help the out if you can. (AOREP) If you would llike to contact him directly please email him at dtsein at aorep dot org

This weeks episode is so much newer than last weeks. I have fans now, and they will be so disapointed when they realize that this show is full of me trying to use my fame to get the Yarn Harlot come to speak at Porter Square books. This disapointment will only be componded when they find out that I didn’t do the research to find out that she has spoken in Boston, in Circles, one of my favorite yarn stores no less.
For shame.
Oh well. It’s still a podcast about a guy for guy’s and gal’s. That has not changed.

While most things I say are confusing, I would like to point out one thing that confused me while listening to the podcast.
Circles is also a loving group, but Doria is not a part of this group. But the Circles groups has offered to contribute some knitting stories. I will be recording them next week. ;)
Sorry for the mix-up. I think it was the fumes in my studio/Bathroom.
Recorded live, from my bathroom in beautiful Somerville, MA.
This episode is my first attempt at putting down the tracks on my podcasting career. I discuss why I am podcasting, my current projects, and the purple mokey on my back. If you would like to know more about my friend Gary and what his wife is going through please visit her Caringbridge web site.
