PaaV Podcast #2








Direct Download: Paav2.2.mp3

Podcast #2 is alive! Thanks for all the nice comments and encouragement, we really appreciate it and dork out about every single email. It was a great Otalia week, and we hope you’ll enjoy the podcast half as much as we enjoyed recording it.

Runtime: 1:58

Notes for the week:

- Here's the link to the Frank/Olivia/Buzz love triangle Liz mentioned. Seriously worth checking out for some insight into the history of Olivia’s love life.

- We’ll be doing our “one word to describe the week” from here on out. Share your word for the week with us in the comments. Liz wants to know!

- Dani has been unable to locate an actual age for the character of AC Mallet, but Robert Bogue is 44 years old and Mandy Bruno is 27 years old. Also, Mallet is Marina’s Godfather. Just putting that out there.

- We have our own new shiny email addresses. Admin@pancakesandavalium.com will go to us both, or you can e-mail Liz@pancakesandavalium.com or Dani@pancakesandavalium.com. We’re whores for email, so feel free.

- Link to The Red Room Guiding Light Project mentioned by Liz.

- Check out our YouTube Channel for amusing podcast outtakes and snippets set to video.

- We mention a few times that this is our second go at the podcast. We recorded one that we didn't love, so it was like 1am and of course we were like, "Let’s just scrap it and start over!!" so we're loopy and tired and its fun. It’s harder to be faux smart when you're dragging.

- Liz may or may not have accidentally let it slip to her mom that she was doing this. Mom will be very proud to hear me gush about Crystal's black coat and dissolve into incoherent mumbling when Natalia leans against the door frame.

- Dani prefers Crystal in the brown coat, and has applied for a fellowship to continue her “research” into the general hotness of Crystal Chappell and Jessica Leccia.

- Liz and Dani have broken up forever over their disagreement about Olivia's coats.

PaaV Video Snips

So we ramble. So what? Some of it is amusing (some isn't), but we thought we'd use slices of it to promo the podcast and have a little fun on YouTube.

"I love you, but.."


"The Coopers are Greek"


More to come! We'll be recording a juicy new podcast tonight, so stay tuned for that. Thanks to everyone who's listened so far!

PaaV Podcast #1

Pancakes and a Valium Podcast #1 is LIVE. Yay!

Runtime: 2:45

Notes from Liz and Dani:

First, I couldnt find that YouTube comment / commenter. So if its you, very insightful thank you.

Campaigning. We wanted to talk about that but we basically ran out of time / forgot to do so. We will probably (maybe) next week, but until then check out the links over there. >> Call, email, snail mail, postcards. Get involved. Flex those geek muscles.

Liz just changed to Tide, and now her clothes smell super yummy. Should have made that change a long time ago. Dani is a fan of Electrosol, mostly because Jessica Leccia's siren voice told me to buy it. The packaging is not a win, but I recycle. Support P & G where you can.

About the CC article we mention, its def not the Advocate, Liz is just crazy. But I can't for the life of me figure out which article/s it is. So whatevs.

Dani's audio will be better next time, and Liz promises not to drink milk right before taping so there will be less coughing/ throat clearing/ mouth smacking noises.

I don't know why Grey's Anatomy managed to come up three separate times. I haven't even watched that show for months. Weirdness. Can't promise there won't be a Parking Lot of Doom reference in the future.

I have googled, and I still have no idea what makes a 'Greek" wedding cake special. Someone help us out here.

Thanks for listening! You know, if you did.

**We exceeded our bandwidth before. We now have a new player, and you can download the podcast in MP3 format directly from the link above.

Hey!! Guess where we are now! Featured on the sites Otaliafans and Otalia!. How stoked are we?!?
