If
you wish to subscribe to the "Noise from the Hearts of Nerds" podcast
- audio-only, there are two options:
Option
1: Subscribe to the "Nerd Noise Radio Network - All Channels" podcast
feed. Feed will include Channels 1, 2, 3, and any future channels not yet
planned. Feed will also include podcasts in high quality, stereo where
applicable, and episodes will never expire off the feed. Therefore, it is
STRONGLY recommended that you subscribe to this particular feed. Here's the
RSS:
Option
2: If you're ONLY interested in Channel 1
("Noise from the Hearts of Nerds") episodes, and not in any of
the other content that is or will be offered by Nerd Noise Radio, there is a
Channel 1-specific feed. But it's hosted on a free account, rather than an
upgraded account like the "All Channels Feed" with lower quality
sound (mono, I believe), a maximum 2hrs per month of content (so if the month's
episodes run longer than that, they may need to be trimmed), and episodes
expire off the feed forever after 90 days. It is STRONGLY recommended for most
listeners to subscribe to the All-Channels feed instead. However, if you really
are only interested in Channel 1 content, here's the RSS:
Our
episodes will also appear on our Nerd Noise Radio YouTube Channel - just search
for Nerd Noise Radio, you'll find us! Here's today's episode:
Additionally,
there are YouTube Playlists you can follow, both an "All Channels"
Feed (recommended), as well as channel-specific feeds. You can find them here:
Nerd
Noise Radio is now available on Twitch as well! Episodes 21 and forward will be
uploaded as they're released, with the backlog of earlier episodes to follow.
You can find us here:
The
specific episode can be found here:
You
can also find us on The Retro Junkies Network:

p.s.
here's the link to the wikipedia page for "The Floppy Show"….
…fun
fact: my brother and I appeared on the show once in '86 or '87, though I have
not been able to find any footage of our appearance. We were hellions,
though….we kept trying to sneak into the birthday line. :-D
p.p.s. Only very, -VERY- tenuously related: Here's the wikipedia to another
kid's show that was also from the greater Des Moines area that we also watched
as kids - "Betty Lou, and the House of the Magic Window":
