  • Looks like Apple removed a lot of podcast friendly stuff from GarageBand to focus it more on music. This kinda sucks. 02:05:59
  • I didn’t use most of that stuff in recent years, so I should still be able to use it to assemble the show though. I’ll see how it goes. 02:06:36
  • I can of course still use the older version of GarageBand, but that is obviously a dead end. I may be exploring new options soon. 02:07:38
  • Oh, ouch. Just opened one of the audio files from this week’s show in GB. All noisy & unlistenable. Actual file is fine if opened directly. 02:11:16
  • This is obviously going to be fun. I’ll play with it a bit before giving up & using the old version or jumping to something completely new. 02:11:51
  • Given up on new GarageBand. Trying a couple other pieces of software before running back to old GarageBand. Any suggestions? 02:45:58

  • RT @tommatzzie: On Acela: former NSA spy boss Michael Hayden just ended last of handful of interviews bashing admin. 20:53:56
  • RT @tommatzzie: On Acela listening to former NSA spy boss Michael Hayden give "off record" interviews. I feel like I'm in the NSA. Except I… 20:54:02
  • RT @tommatzzie: On Acela: phone ringing. I think the jig is up. Maybe somebody is telling him I'm here. Do I hide? 20:54:06
  • RT @tommatzzie: I think I'm safe. Just passed Philly. No rendition yet. Do I have the balls to ask him for a photo? #haydenacela 20:54:14
  • That series from @tommatzzie was great. People need to remember nothing is really off the record any more. Esp. when in a public space. Ha! 20:56:03
  • RT @RepUnderwoodSC: Note to self: Never speak to anyone in an Acela. Ever. 20:56:21

  • RT @tommatzzie: On the pic. His office called him and then he graciously offered me an interview. We talked around the 4th amendment and fo… 21:20:51
  • So one thing to look for: Now that Hayden outed by @tommatzzie, will reporters Hayden talked to still not ID him in their stories? 21:34:00
  • RT @tommatzzie: Hayden just left train in Newark. He touched my back…again. I think a stop short actually. 21:40:19
