Congrats hon! Enjoy your day, sit on your throne of amazingness, pat yourself on the back. You are 35% of whats awesome in my life, and I love you bunches. XO Liz

Our Emmy Rant and Hungry Eyes








Direct Download: emmyrant.mp3

Runtime: 2 minutes, 50 seconds

We channeled our bitterness over the 2009 Emmy Robbery of Crystal Chappell (and really, Guiding Light as a whole) into a quickie rant. Had to get that off our chests. Although we salute the GL men for pulling in 3 Emmy nominations, we felt the women were utterly shafted. How about you guys?

It's also PaaV video snippets time again! Liz and I have been talking about the hot looks of Olivia Spencer for the last couple of weeks, which spawned this video. Really, it's a small slice of CC/Olivia's repertoire, as this sort of thing could have easily been 35 minutes.

Dirty Dancing + Olivia Spencer = win. That's all I have to say about that.

PaaV Podcast #4


Direct Download: paav4-.mp3


Runtime: 1 hour, 21 minutes

Podcast #4 lives. We had 3 days of Otalia this week, which seems like a lot, but we are still bitter about the cruel CBS preview fake out. As usual, we got lots of rad emails and comments, which further proves that you guys are funnier than we are.

Notes:

- We totally lied about the new website, it isn't live yet. But it is set up to automatically forward you to the blogspot site, so feel free to update your bookmarks now. Check back through the week to see the spiffy, shiny new site: pancakesandavalium.com

- Herbal Essences is citrus-y. Just saying. Rub it in!

- I actually do want to know what the F Blake was rambling about during the massage regarding her love life, so feel free to enlighten me (Dani) in the comments or in an email. Most of the old GL I've watched has been Olivia Spencer-centric.

- We're on itunes! Yay. Thanks to everyone who asked about it - now you can subscribe there if you prefer that. We're all fancy and whatnot.

- Stuff we talked about. From Holly Norris to Olivia Spencer - Ladies and Gentlemen, The B-52s - Deep Soap: Happy Mothers Day

- We tried out some new recording software this week, so let us know what you think about it. You know, if you want to.

- Dani is still going strong being spoiler-free and would like to thank the people cheering her on. Recovery is hard, but we can all do it one step at a time.
....And Dani fell off the wagon. Who had one week in the pool?

Outtakes and Frank vs. Doris








Direct Download: love.mp3

Runtime: 1 minute, 16 seconds

Lovely Liz has put together another clip of cut material from our last podcast. At least all our screwing up is being utilized for something productive.

mini-pod mini notes:

- recording a podcast in the middle of the night is not the best idea in the world
- I only swear at Liz when greatly provoked

We also have another video - the Director's Cut of Frank vs. Doris! Well it would be if I were the director.

PaaV Podcast #3








Direct Download: paav3.mp3

Runtime: 58 minutes

Peanut buttery Podcast #3 is here! Somehow we managed to spend 58 minutes discussing 9 minutes of screentime. We're special like that. We'd both like to thank everyone, again, for their awesome comments and emails. This isn't nearly as fun without you guys, so keep 'em coming.

Notes for the week:

- Dani started the night with technical problems, so Liz did some changes on her end hoping to help. In the end, we ended up with a bad echo in the recording on Liz's side, but neither of us heard it during the call. I did what I could to make it ok, but there is some background echo in some places I couldn't get rid of. At times it sounds like I'm in a crowded bar, but alas, I'm not. Its basically fine with speakers but not so much with headphones. So sorry!!

- Liz did not get enough words for the week last week. We know it's a brain-bender, but try to sum up the Otalia week in one word and leave it in the comments. It's fun!

- P & G doesnt make peanut butter but they do make Pringles! Yummy w/ PB & banana sandwiches!

- Lynn Liccardo's Red Room article on GL - "What Would Irna Think?"

- Jennifer Gibbons' Red Room article on GL - "A Woman Named Irna"

- Liz is taking bets on how long Dani will last spoiler free in the comments!

- Dani would like to let people know that Liz is a horrible spoiler rehab sponsor, she's been tempting relentlessly!

Everything Awesome from PaaV 2.0








Direct Download: projectsalvage.mp3

Runtime: 2 minutes, 48 seconds

Did someone ask for outtakes? No? Well, here they are anyway. This is a "mini-pod" just for fun - taken from the first version of PaaV 2.0, which we ended up scrapping. Liz is a genius, and worked her editing magic to salvage some funny from it.

mini-pod mini notes:

- the girls were not on Tuesday of last week
- we never discussed Tuesday, but if you say anything with enough authority, Dani will believe you (ed: hey!)

And finally, a couple of new PaaV Podcast video snippets. It wouldn't be a Friday if we weren't bagging on the Coopers!
