IR Orlando 28: George Hrab’s “Trebuchet”
July 6, 2010
Yes, I know it has been a long absence, and I’m sure you thought I was gone for good but I’m not! I plan to start releasing some content again, most likely in smaller doses so that I produce them more frequently, so stay tuned for more local content soon…
That being said, I have a special presentation for this episode of Insomnia Radio Orlando. This is your opportunity to hear a brand new album from one of my favorite podcasters, George Hrab. George is an independent musician based in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, and he’ll be performing in Orlando on July 17 at Nerdapalooza, so there IS a local tie-in here.
George combines his considerable intelligence and humor with his abilities as a musician, singer, and songwriter on his sixth album, “Trebuchet.” George has generously offered up the entire album to his fellow podcasters for a listening party. If you like it, please support him by purchasing a copy. You can get your very own digital copy on iTunes or at CD Baby, or better yet, if you buy an actual physical CD, you’ll also get the 20-page booklet AND a chance at being the lucky recipient of The Golden Ticket, which entitles you to a live personal performance from Geo himself.
George is also a skeptic and atheist, and if you’d like to hear more from him, check out his Geologic Podcast – it’s one of my favorites. He has also made recent appearances on a couple of my other favorite podcasts, Skepticality and as a Guest Rogue on an upcoming episode of The Skeptic’s Guide to the Universe.
You can also get his book, Non-Coloring Book here, or find out more about his music at Geologic Records.
If you have never heard George’s music before, this is a great chance to check out the album, then show your support by purchasing it. My own copy is on the way.

IR: Australia #4 – Call That A Winter?
June 27, 2010
Click here to view this post on the IR: Australia site
Welcome to episode 4 of Insomnia Radio Australia!
The weather has turned relatively cold in the non tropical areas of Australia. There’s some snow in the Alpine regions (nowhere near Erk!) and the heater is sometimes on in the Channel Erk Studio. Compared to a North American winter, an Australian winter can be a lot warmer but during the day, you definitely need a jumper. So here are some tunes to warm your ears!
Hosted by Erk from Channel Erk, Insomnia Radio: Australia is dedicated to bringing you a wide range of indie music from across Australia. Produced in Sydney, if the music is Australian, Erk wants to know about it so you can hear it. You can email Erk at australia@insomniaradio.net as well as following @iraustralia on Twitter and visiting the Facebook page for show updates.
